i dont no but dave never came up :S wasnt answered his phone end of last week either????
on the weekend installed a new bov after my other cheap one blew off AGAIN. i have redone the whole mounting of it if it blows off now then theres something wrong lol. this is a decent bov this time to. but yeah fixed that up, i knew how the last guy did the bov mount wasnt the best, i thought it would hold though but under boost it just isnt good enough. so yeah now has a nice NEW bov. also while i was doing shit i was looking at where my oil leak was coming from..... haha pissing out of the turbo.... and yesterday she was abit smokey... turbo in for rebuild this week spose thats what u get taking a chance on a second hand turbo. so year turbo getting re built. but from what i have felt.... it feels good boost is my drug. still i just want everything finished, spewing about the turbo, but honestly when the turbo is rebuilt it means every part of the system is new or practically new.
still dave..... whats going down. answer ur phone please
Were you running hondata with your previous d16y4, or did you just start using hondata after swapping engines?
If you were running it on the d16y4, i take it you had to do some custom wiring for the obd1 ecu.
When you swapped to the d16y8, did you still run the harness from your d16y4 or did you pull it out and run the d16y8 harness?
Also, just wondering, is your swap newer than your car? Ive heard that the engine needs to be of equal age or newer to be legal, is this true for us QLDers?
Or is it that the engine must be availiable in other models of that year, for example, an engine made in 1996 swapped into a 1998 car is legal because you can find that particular engine in cars all the way up to the year 2000, even though the actual engine is older than the car??
