<![CDATA[What did you do to your ride today?]]>These threads work well elsewhere, thought I'd try one here. Post anything vehicle related - maintenance, upgrades, fab...

I replaced my rear O2 sensor with a new one and EGT sensor with a bolt last night.

Has been since before Christmas, just haven't had the time to work on it over the holidays & travel. Hope to get back on it soon.

In the meantime,

Plenty of other stuff to keep me busy... Need to pull the tranny and replace the shift shaft seal. I was trying to do it with the transmission still under the car but it's not happening very easily without a lift.

Gutting and porting my TGVs this week too, about 3/4ths done. Got the butterflies and rods removed, divider plates cut out, the holes welded and one of them ported so far.

Couple pics...

Need to take some time and just clean parts too. Scrub em up, paint what needs to be painted...

CMK doesn't whine. Others whine when they hear CMK.

I forgot to mention this the other day, but I replaced my Stinger ANL fuse holder (too much bling) with a breaker for the low key win.

Pretty sure that's the manufacturing date, and while it's been on the shelf a little longer than I'd like, it sounds like that's pretty normal.

<snip> When I visit our retail partners, most of the batteries I see on shelves were manufactured within the last 12-18 months. <snip>

www.twitter.com/optimabatteriesThere's a lot of anecdotal stuff out there about lower quality since they moved manufacturing to Mexico. I guess I'll find out. Good news is they bumped the warranty up to 3 years now.

Finished wiring up the failsafe output of my AEM wideband. Now it will use a relay to cut the signal to the boost control solenoid and drop me down to wastegate boost if I go lean or over boost.

Replaced the seatbelt in my driver's rear reel. Old one had an ugly stain.

Ran a 1/0 lead from the battery to the back. PITA. For future stereo use and for the following mod...

Rewired my fuel pump with 10 awg wire. Feeding it battery/alternator power from the 1/0. Stock was 18 awg, not enough - typically only saw 11.5v at the pump. I should have 13v+ now.
Pic below is the new 10 awg soldered to the stock wiring. Mmm, beefy.

My back hurts, lol.

Heck of a deal for $200.

I got the new WBO2 installed half-ass so I'm ready to pull logs. I hope to button up the install this week, wiring up the failsafe output to cut the EBCS signal and getting everything tucked away nicely.
