    Still a little low on gear oil I think. Need to check that again later.

    Drove the beast to work tonight
    Was hard not to spin tires, lol.
    This 500 mile break-in is going to be even harder than I thought.
    Congrats! The break in seems to take forever lol

    Ok, so I logged a mile or 2 of driving with evoscan.
    Apparently the default options are only so helpful...

    Anyone have some advice on what I should be logging?

    And how to turn off front o2 or possibly combine signals? Or any other possible options? I have a 94 base model harness that only had a single o2 sensor right before the cat.

    Or is that unused connector on the ac compressor harness the front o2 connector? If that's what it is, the wiring should go all the way to the ecu, right?

    *I verified from the evoscan logs that the single o2 sensor I have was seen as the rear primary. I just needed to disable the other o2 sensor bits with ecuflash.

    25 miles on the build so far. Brand new tires up front and it's still like driving on ice, lol.

    Worked on the oil leaks a little. Still trying to figure out this chrome stuff. I think turning off all the crap the ecu is looking for but my car doesn't actually have will help a lot. Just need to figure out how to do it.
    Having some issues logging what I want and checking codes with evoscan. With a universal code reader I came back with 12 CEL codes, lol. I only have a single narrowband o2. No map sensors, no vacuum solenoids or boost controllers, no egr, no evap. So I've got a handful of ecu issues to fix.

    Then I get to battle these oil leaks some more.

    Then I also want to install this jdm rear precat, which is awesome because there's nothing in it (like it's pre-gutted) and you can actually install or remove it without taking anything else off and with the engine still in. That is if I can even manage to get this 3sx pipe off.

    Also want to try one of those cheap high flow cats. For $30, not much to lose

    yeah, take a good long look at the link bill posted. use evoscan 2.9 to log, and evoscan 2.6 to check codes. at least, do that until the next version of chrome comes out... i have a strong feeling it will be using 2.6 again.

    after you read through the link, if your issues still arent fixed, i will look hard into figuring out how to fix them for you, but everything you have listed so far is straight forward and you just have to play with the peripheries

    Wow, it's just a pipe with a cat converter shaped heat shield around it, lol. Stealthy test pipe

    The other one I was looking at wasn't much better. If I can find a 3" in/out.

    I eventually want a real high flow cat, but need something for visual inspection for now. That is if they even check it, lol. I think only once in the last few years they actually put it on the lift to look.

    I was able to pull codes with one of my other code readers, so maybe it was just mismatched versions.

    Well I got a couple more new tires and passed inspection and renewed registration last month.

    Had the feeds on the downpipe extended. Angles were off a little, but I was able to make it work. Still need to take it back to get redone properly. Wish I would have taken the car there to start with but I was scared to drive it that far at the time.

    FINALLY figured out the ecuflash issues. It took me a long time to get the software working right. I was using a newer laptop with windows 8 64bit. I ended up using a 32 bit windows xp virtual machine in vmware on the same laptop.
    After all that, the big issue ended up being that I had the flash wire on pin 57, but it needed to be on 51 (the one right above it, lol). So anyway, ecu has been successfully flashed and my CEL's are gone. Should run a bit smoother I imagine.

    Another test drive tomorrow and video if I don't forget.

    Then on to the oil leaks and redo the downpipe. Also want to build my custom hiflow cat, but probably just install my testpipe for now.
    I will probably also switch to 8AN returns soon and ditch the unnecessary adapters which should fix half of the oil leaks. I'm pretty sure 10AN was overkill anyway, lol.
