Thanks, I'll contact them. You're right, they probably know every trick there is.

Interior multi-wire cable now totally supplying circuits to left, center, and right sides of the engine bay. 12v Coolant pump for the transaxle cooler will be on a manual switched circuit, not triggered by the oe temp switch.
OE temp switch is being replaced by a VDO oil temp sender + gauge for monitoring trans temp. |

Longtime POC (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) friend Art Zaph stopping in to see what's up, he daily drives a Cayman R these days.
Art recently sold off his 9146 electrical-schematic biz, and is enjoying retirement ! |

Damn, that's a great angle of the car. Reminds me of Kim Kardashian for some reason. Can't wait to see it on the ground with wheels and tires.

Still having lots of fun pulling wires through Goodridge fire-sleeve. Customized end on one side mates to a curved split-wire sleeve. I found a very special roll of "Aero grade" aluminum tape in the toolbox to join the 2 together.

The livery for 8gtt has been voted on by us 3; @MATTYLITE and Mrs. Falcon say "Go with a 21st Century rendition of Sonauto #40".
Me...I'd like to keep sketching, but majority rules (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) In any event, we're also collaborating with various Wrap guys for their ideas. |

Laying out some real estate in the rear "Trunk" area; which will have a big intercooler , two wastegate exhaust pipes, 2 heat-bonnets (over the Garretts), 4 hood pins...so before I start sawing out the Sheridan trunk lid for all of these contour-cuts, it's good to have a quick look see at the basic layout.
Note: these are not the pipes I'll be using as they're much too tall, just some 2"od slash-cut exhaust tips for another product laying around. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/marty914.jpg) |
