reliable, ebay kit, vafc, and missing link do not belong together.

good luck with the ebay kit. ditch the vafc and missing link for a real ems and 3 bar map sensor if you want more than 12psi of boost. you've spent a considerable amount on the engine but cheaped out on engine management. tsk tsk...

Yeah my buddys got a s300 with 3 bar I can use (probably for six months). I also can trade him a delsol with a d15 for it but ehhh. When I first had it running it was running like shit on the s300 (I understand it was a street tune) but when we switched to the vafc it ran so much better like night and day. I do plan on upgrading eventually and putting a little money in the head. But for right now this is what i got going on. If you can find anyone with any info on the post let me know. Whay kind of problems do you think I'll run into with the missing link?

:wtf: Why would anyone ever do that? That just looks so unsafe and unprofessional, and using JB WELD :nervous: ... imo a block guard would be a thousand times better than that improvised bs

people were doing that kind of stuff back in the days went they built kamazai engines that lasted a couple of runs. so cost was important.

studs aren't the best idea, but it will work better than nothing at all.

Yeah i finally figured out why the s300 was running crappy it was because of ignition timing. The apex would advance timing where the spark would be complete and the s300 would run stock timing and it wouldnt ignite all the way so i took the spark plug gap from 44 thou. to 30 thou. the s300 is running great and I havent had any problems form it. The only problem now is the shitty turbo and wastegate which disables me to use my very expensive boost controller.
