Brain, did you drop the opti system, and put the coil on plug setup?

LTb1ow 01-26-2011 03:25 PM

Opti is completely gone. As Matt mentioned, the car will use the EFI Connection 24x system with their custom harness, new LS2 coils/brackets and LS1 PCM.

it wasn't a planned mod. old clutch failed catastrophically so I figured since the trans was coming out anyway I'd upgrade it. and yes that's the automatic plug still dangling there hahah.

gonna throw in a 160 t-stat while i have everything out of there.

I wouldn't, heat is gunna suck. Save it for spring and take it out in the fall. If you do stick it in, you should have your fan turn on temps adjusted as well.

im not worried about the heat. it isnt that good to begin with. and after todays traveling nightmare, i doubt the car will be seeing much action till the spring. im going to re adjust the fan temps too. do you know if i can do that with the hypertech?

If the heat sucks, so does the defroster. I have a drilled 180 in my GTP and it takes a little bit to get warm.

Hows everyones winter projects going?
 
Just wondering if others are having trouble getting things done on their cars this winter with all the snow. Winters about half over and things are going slow on the progress side.

LTb1ow 01-29-2011 06:30 PM

Installed a few guages, and swapped a wheel stud.
