Nice attention to detail on this build. What method did you use for mounting the IAT sensor in the intake? Also is there a good place to source the black braided nylon that you have on the meth nozzle hoses and some of the wiring?

So it's not quite as fancy as I thought. Whatever RPM you engage it at it'll hold. But fancier than I thought in that you can set a target boost and it will retard timing dynamically to achieve it.

The LPE box you have to tell it the RPM and retard you want once it's enabled. So trying out different retard and RPM's til you get what you want.
Yea pretty similar in that sense.. And yes I will have to play with it on the highway and just note what rpm gets me what mph should take 30min or less.. Once I have that down then I can use the AMS2000 to manipulate the boost curve or initial boost once the anti lag is engaged.. Regardless there's plenty of ways to skin a cat! I like how the pro efi does things it's badass but pricey.. I've done somewhat the same thing for several thousands less.

quick update..
Got my LG G1 rear sway to keep things as stiff as possible with HD Endlinks




I also plan to drive the car around a lot just to cruise etc, so i got another set of rears for this. no point in burning up the good radials just scooting around.. I must say they look pretty nice!

















Now just waiting on the rest of the parts that should get here this week and we are good to go!

sick! that's hilarious too as I've never seen nt555r with that much sidewall. what is the huge advantage to using this rolling anti lag versus just brake boosting it?

with those tires, transmission and rolling anti lag this thing is going to hurt some feelings at these roll race events. looking forward to vids!

Well got the last of the parts i needed to get this thing going on the dyno if mother nature stops $hitting on us...

New C7 Carbon Wider side skirts


Billet Tech alternator to help us support all the juice the acc. will be pulling


AMS2000 (this thing is soooooo badass!)


oh and got new exhaust finished up sounds soooo silky


the brains of the operation


Dont mind all the wires this thing is super easy to wire up!


So before i start anything i took down the gate and installed the AMS MAP sensor (monitors dome pressure in the gate)





Now to install the Solenoids! as you can see from the tank in the rear to the solenoid block i run a quick disconnect line with no heat whatsoever nearby and then from the block to the wg i run -4 stainless teflon with fire sleeves.



mounted and wires ran! all done! i will go more into detail about my tuning strategy for the street/track/crusing with the boost controller.


Billet Alt installed and engine bay is now pretty much down aside from blankets installed as i'm still wanting to put some more street miles on her to see what other little bugs i find before i button her all up.

soooo a couple of small updates now just waiting on this stupid weather to pass to head to dyno and get things dialed in since i will be unable to street tune it.

went out and got a new trailer rig.





Got the LG sway bar installed and set at 0 preload





Got the new C7 Carbon side skirts painted along with my rear diffuser and put those on. looks x100 better IMO.

EPIC!

the combo of turbo torque, engine management, glide and invincible drive train is going to be a punisher at the roll events. curious what this will weigh when all done too. looking forward to vids.

i have a stupid question but how did you get the gold heat shield to stick to the metal? doesn't seem the adhesive that comes on it is very sticky... could just be that we still have sub zero temps here....

DEI i believe, figured its a well known company that it should be good. it may just be that its really cold, maybe ill "borrow" my girlfriends hair dryer and heat the metal up first lol. i cleaned it with brake clean first but it just will not stick

Yep, the metal when cold also sweats a lot keeping it from sticking. It works well when the surface is clean and dry so heating might do the trick for you. Use a heat gun if you have one or a torch if you won't damage anything near it.

Car looks awesome man. Can't wait to see it get dialed in.

Ok just some much needed updates
got the car aligned the right way. (don’t mind the tire fender area, my car will never hook this hard on the nittos, my 275x tire and beadlock rims tuck in perfectly)




Got the rest of my heat management stuff on! Turbin housing blanket and header blanket




Went to TX2K15 to meet up with a good friend the PumpKing




Once back home changed up the wheels a little bit, now just waiting on warmer weather to dial the car in.
Daily Driving wheels




Do Work setup!
