prototype to what, another dead end project?

Fixed it for ya.

Jake has a wife, a life and a family. No need to try and bag on the man for doing what he wants when he wants. Jake isn't obligated to do anything for anyone.

If you mean the O2 housing, I finished 4 of them.
But then several things happened, most recently, my mother died and I had to deal with that, still dealing... but getting back on track.

of course he isnt obligated to do anything........but leading plenty of people on about making aftermarket parts is getting old, thats my only point

hope it all works out jake. sorry to hear of your loss

Who cares what he does? You aren't buying one so why should it matter to you? It's not like he took anyones money so who cares when it gets done? If Jake wants to take 5 years to get something done on top of the 3 he's taken already then so be it. The only one who loses out will be him when nobody wants one anymore (which is probably already the case) but that is still not a reason to jump on him. He's doing this because he wants to, not because he has to or needs to.

5 is about same as 16g (whats the point), sched 10 is thick enough I thought. Sched 40 would be monstrously heavy. Dont you think that is too much? Or is it really needed?

Im having trouble finding 1xd sched 40 bends so I was gonna use sched 10.

Why is there a spark plug, plugged into the VAF boot that's attached to the throttle body?

**zlyricist** · 12-6-07, 13:08

Better spark that way. I think it's in the "how to" section on performanceprobe.com

I like this:

This LKQ Online Auction Is For A 1989 Ford Probe 2.2 Liter Turbo Intercooled Engine Assembly. The Vin Is L, There Is Only 8k On These Engine. The Harness Is A Little Beat Up, But The Engine Was Tested In The Car (Sure it was) And It Ran Good. It Is A Little Dusty From Sitting In The Warehouse.(or being used for the past 150K)
