^^^^^ this is correct providing you don't have a runner spacer.

Just an FYI.....you will find that Dales Brace bar will probably make a bigger and more noticeable improvement.

i have upper and dales lower. Top might aswell be for decoration as it does SFA compared to the lower.

Also easy as to put in and dale....bit odd but good bloke hahah :-P

Pretty sure bigkevracer got the ox motorsport bracing off streeter for the m35

Sorry haven't got on here much lately. I've got Dale's front brace, the OX rear that Jetwreck organised in the group buy, and a Freeway Dolphin strut brace that Streeter organised.

These days I think the strut brace serves more use as a place to cable tie hoses to, but I've left it in. Looks purdy, and makes some difference, but with Dale's brace and all the bushes replaced, front end is pretty direct without it.

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
