                looks proper!!!

                I like it a lot

                also, you should get an award or something.

                for being basically the only member to finish their build on here!!!

                  I'll just take an award for getting out of that lot alive.

                  I'm not done yet! Just bought all my lines and connectors for the CCV and catch can set up. $360, ouch.

                      And the build goes on. Just popped this in.suqadura.jpg

                      Can someone school me on which coolant temp sensor controls the ecu (blue?) and which goes to the cluster(black)? I have a brown top m20 single wire sensor but want to confirm.

                            Isn't 400 a bit low to shoot for with an s52?

                              Sometimes 400hp is faster than 600hp. And besides Its not how you stand by your car, its how you race your car. 

                              As far as the coolant temp sensors, I believe blue is for the ECU and brown is for the cluster, but it has been a while so check to see how many wires each one has. I believe the ECU temp sensor has 2 wires and the gauge temp sensor has 1.  You will see that the harness is missing a pin when you disconnect it.

                                My goal is to have 500+ to the wheels. The tune is the next hurtle I need to jump over. As of now I'm running über rich. After I get my CCV set up done I will tackle the tune.

                                I do have 422 with a bad spark plug gap and bad tune... Plug gap fixed and she is pulling hard.

                                  I have a blue and a black sensor. Both are two pin. The blue is towards the front of the motor and and smaller diameter thread than the black one.

                                  These might be why I'm running rich. The black sensor top broke off while I was loosening it making me think it was on it's way out when I put down dat dyno run. Bad sensor thinking the motor is cold=fuel dump. I have to look into this. AHH!

                                    As of now I'm spinning a ton in 4th and a little in 5th. Both hands on the wheel and eyes up are a necessity. I just demolished a modded STi Friday night 3-5th to 130. #h3gon3
