A bit more done. The "hot" side of the intercooler pipework has been tied down - no more annoying noises from it rubbing... in fact no more rubbing! This wont matter as much soon (with big thanks to stradlater!!). I have a Garrett intercooler core (600x280x76 I believe) for which I will get custom end tanks made up. I will also mount it better than the current shitty cooler is mounted. Should prove to be a nice upgrade!

I also took a bit of time today cleaning up the wiring in the engine bay and working on a few wiring gremlins that i've ignored for too long. All of my wiring now goes through a loom tube which not only looks neat, keeps the wires where they should be. I have a mini fuse box that holds 4 blade fuses which I am now using where ever I need to. Once again looks very nice and accepts the female spade connectors.

I found some issues with the wiring of the Main relay which must have caught me out back when I did the wiring first. If I connected it up the right way the car would start and run ok, but it would then continue to run after turning off the ignition. The only way to kill the engine was to pull the EFI fuse Smile This didn't seem too practical so I went without cold start, and a few other things I imagine. Only after actually looking into the wiring itself did I discover that power was going the wrong place at the wrong time, and that there was no power making it to the ISCV after ignition was off - it's meant to get power for at least 2 seconds after ignition is turned off.

Now the car starts very well, idles at around 2000rpm while warming up and settles nicely. But I wish it stopped there. I have to choose what to do next - my alternator seems to be at the end of it's life now. It works OK at idle with the lights on, but the revs do drop. But any more load than that (ie. high beams) and the voltage drops by 1v. Continued load just makes things worse. I can only conclude that it's on it's last legs (yes, my grounds are GOOD!).

Now, I know someone might shout out "PICS!!!!" and I don't blame them. I will try to borrow a camera ASAP and hopefully satisfy that hunger Smile
