Re: Br3w City's Project omgwtfbbq
Thanks Dude
Difference between the 4l80e and 4l60e dipsticks, the 80e is on the left. ![]() Painting my wideband housing, showing the sensor, and pulling out the old voltmeter. Full video on the wideband install coming soon. ![]() ![]() ![]()

Re: Br3w City's Project omgwtfbbq
Did a major retune this past weekend. Ditched the MAF, instead switching to the "big dog" of HP Tuners...the SD-enhanced custom Operating system. This literally means throwing GM's hard work into the garbage, for what is essentially "hacked firmware" for a car. Its a bit more groomed than that, but truthfully, at its core thats what it is.
This allows the use of Speed Density tuning, something thats brought up here once in a while, usually in the higher performance discussions. This uses VE tables to create very precise fuel maps, foregoing flexibility and idiot-proofing, for maximum horsepower and control in the hands of the right person. In addition, running the enhances OS allows Live Tuning, or watching streaming data-logs and making changes in REAL time. As a Bonus, I can use it up to 3-bar, for when 1 atmosphere just isn't making enough power. I'll go into more detail on SD tuning soon, but for now, just knows I be did-ing that. I also modified my engine cover to work with the Fuel Pressure gauge I showed you guys in my last video installment... SERIOUSLY, please Like, Comment and Subscribe to me on YouTube (Rev J HD) or follow me on Twitter @wtfREVJ. I enjoy doing these video's, but even the simplest ones take large amounts of time, and in many cases money. The more people that show they like our work, the more we can bring you guys in return. I work hard to bring this forum as much tech, pictures, video, and unbridled opinion as I can, and I need yall to show me some love back. We have SO much more coming, but the scale of it isn't possible without support for "Viewers Like You" (In telethon voice). Also, I continue to extend this offer to anyone willing to come-on-down. If your interested in having your truck/car/project filmed, let me know. Anyone local who would like to do frequent build-updates would be great, but I'm also happy to do quick 3-7 minute "Fun" videos of your project for the channel. I'm also willing to do more detailed work, including archival footage and documentation, in-depth automotive profiles, or filming of club/company/team track days or events (with a donation). Thanks for everyone who watches.

Re: Br3w City's Project omgwtfbbq
Thanks man! Good luck as your swap progresses, let me know if you need anything/help.
And PLEASE check out my YouTube channel and like and subscribe and stuff, it lets me bring more of this stuff. I've got a new intake mod video, a wideband install video, a DIY dbw cruise-control instructional video, the awaited Line lock video, and a BUNCH more stuff on the way. *on that note, we're getting ready to pick up a DSLR to shoot macro stuff so I can do more low-light and detail stuff on the technical shoots...and were still buying that damn quadrotor as some point too.

Re: Br3w City's Project omgwtfbbq
Started working on a box for the air filter to help address the IAT concerns. Lots left to do, and of course, a whole video will be coming. Started with the "stock" heatshield that came with the ebay intake, but it didn't fit. I moved to using some cardboard for a template.
![]() ![]() ![]() Used some square tube and clamps for my bends. Then I could bend and trim any edges/tabs I needed. ![]() ![]() ![]() The long filter will pass into the core support area. I rough trimmmed the support for the filters, this will get rounded out and dressed before anything is mounted. ![]() ![]() Added an old piece of the existing intake, as well as a 90* bend from an AirRaid BUI kit. I'll probably end up welding the tube sections together to eliminate that extra coupling. Set the box with a screw, and some magnets for the edge for now to mock up. Box is test fit in place. Gotta make the lid, dress the whole thing, coat it with heat reflective, and coat the piping., ![]() ![]() ![]()

Re: Br3w City's Project omgwtfbbq
Thanks guys! Keep it coming, I've never won a TOTM with this baby, which is a freaking shame!
Worked on the intake again today a while. Mounted the filter, got the box positioned around it. ![]() Made and sealed the lid. One side screws down with insulated screws and seam tape to prevent chafing and rattling. Other side has thick foam tape that creates a snug fit. The lid kinda "snaps" down under the lip on the core support. You can view the filter by pulling the lid back, and taking it off completely only takes a few more seconds. Now I just need to put some finishes on the tubing and the box to make it look good. ![]() ![]()

Re: Br3w City's Project omgwtfbbq
A better lit picture. You can see the pipes have some scuff damage. Since I'm gonna paint them anyway, I decided to use a nylon brush I had, and semi-brush them to clean off the surface, and give me a unique finish until I get some paint on (in like a day lol).

Re: Br3w City's Project omgwtfbbq
Well the home-brushed piping only amused me for about 24hrs....then it was right to coating them.
![]() ![]() ![]() And satin black Engine Enamel over the high temp primer ![]() ![]() Installed...just gotta decide on a finish/wrap for the box. ![]() ![]() ![]()

Re: Br3w City's Project omgwtfbbq
A few pics from a show I stopped out at this afternoon. Figured I didn't have too many shots from this year yet, or any with the intake setup pretty much done, and all the underhood stuff a little cleaner.

Re: Br3w City's Project omgwtfbbq
Thanks gentlemen. Kinda in project limbo right now....don't know what the next move is. I've got stuff for a cruise control setup sitting here, as well as a front LED signal conversion letting me open up the nostrils for air...just not motivated.
Still messing with my turn signals. After having the "front brake lights" when I hit the brakes and the signals came on, I messed with the hazard switch and got a change. Now it will signal Left (front and rear) just fine. Right will light the tail light up, but not blink, and the front does nothing. A member/vender who had the same chinese column suggested the turn signal switch is usually the issue...might be able to replace it with an 80's g10 switch. REALLY don't wanna mess with that, I hae getting at my column with where my wiring is, and I have no clue how to open it up to get at the switch. GIVE ME MOTIVATION! please. Lol, someone kick my ass into figuring this out, especially if you know anything about the column switches.

Re: Br3w City's Project omgwtfbbq
Tried welding stainless for the first time today. Melts really easily, but that means its also easy to overheat. I had some issues with distortion on the thinner plates, and adding too much filler on the thicker stuff (it melts easily into the weld pool, so you end up adding too much filler when there was plenty already there). Aside from that, I got a couple decent practice passes in. Nothing in the weld-porn genre yet, but not bad for my first time on the torch with SS.

I did another one with a project we started for that 350z you guys may have seen in one of my other videos. We build a quick drop hitch and mount so he could put a bike rack or grill on the car without it ruining the sportscar look when not in use.
