like no joke alfred thanks for not charging my anthing for the check up on my car i really appreciate that alot!
but ya here was the whole problem my O2 was strached out across the exhaust side of the turbo because of the invidia O2 housing and it melted the rubber around the O2 sensor wires where it was touching and actually got to the metal inside the wire and that was touching my hotside and i guess the metal on metal contact really fked up the grounding or just electrical signal/ current in my car which is why it died and wouldnt start :buck2:
moral of the story is screw the invidia o2 housing lol!
but ya thanks for the advise also about moving the o2 harness to the other side of the engine it was very easy and looks pretty sexy if i do say so myself!!!
well thanks for all the advice alfred i know im sometimes probably a pain in the neck but i really appreciate it man!
and also i have to questions i cleaned alot of my engine off pretty well but a little more could prpbably be dont on the firewall side of the engine but no joke no matter how much i tape off and shit im just plane scared to hose that part down there are so many wire harnesses!!!! i cleaned it as much as i could by hand back there and well i knda want you to inspect how i did to see if its workable for a cam job and also is the bottom that important to clean i know it looks like iraq down there but do you guys think i should?
and my other question is where did alfred get his engine and stuff powder coated at? i want to powder coat my heat shield, stock upper intercooler pipe and spark plug cover because i did kind of a hap hazzard job on those pieces!
well thanks for everything yo!!! and remember to get some gypsy tears!!! :2funny:
