Also need to do
Relocate the battery to inside the cabin, as the space is taken up by boost hoses now!
Boost/AFM/Oil Pressure Guages fitting (roughly as I dont want to cut into the dash, dont fancy garish on dash pods, so I think a 3 guage centre console is required!)
anyway some pics
Injection fuel assembly mounted underneath the rear of the car and plumbed in
- Fuel pumps wired up
- ECU Mounting
- Engine bay wiring
- Dump valve vac feed fitting
Wiring all takes longer than expected, but I'd rather do it (semi) right the first time round!
ECU mounted in the scuttle tray
Trusty holesaw saw a hole made in the raintray-> engine compartment for the G40 loom to pass through
Wired up all the G40 sensors
Welded studs to the turrets to mount the coil
Coil mounted, wires extended as passed into the inside of the car
Fuel pump wiring routed and soldered
Fuel pump and coil relays fitted and soldered
Battery earth terminal removed, and earths moved
Tomorrow I'm off to pick up the earth and power lead from a e46 330i and a momo team off a friend (already got one for this, buts its to replace the one I robbed out of the peril!)
Few jobs remaining that I can think of before it can fire up
Vac pipe for dump valve
Weld studs to underside of car to mount fuel pump cradle
Mount fuel pump assembly and route fuel lines up to in-tank pump
Trusty holesaw again to make hole in boot-floor for rear fuel pump loom
Mount battery in boot
Route battery power cable to starter
Move all positive battery connections currently fitted to starter motor
Wire up alternator
weld bracket for header tank and fit
route turbo water lines
fit midbox
rejoice, fire up and drive =D
get tyres fitted on borbets and get the tracking done
Jobs for next week will be getting the comet blue coupe back up on the road, mot'ing the Grey Mk3 G40 and removing the golfs dash to sort out the abomination that is the dash loom, check out the shocking state of affairs in the fusebox!
I'm finding conflicting threads for the fuses for series 1 fuseboxes, and no idea on the relays, can anyone help?!

One of the unit lads is going to get me a load of wire from his work and I'm probably going to redo the entire dash loom by hand, that way I know it'll be right, as currently its slightly unnerving, but to all who know my previous endeavours, I now keep a fire extinguisher in all cars
Finally back on the road
been a right saga, involve far too many 3am missions and sleeping in till half 11 on a workday =/
in the work car pork
