    have you ever looked into any of the adhesives they use in autobody. 3m, lord fusor, evercoat and valvoline all make really good products. probly the best would be the evercoat since that one dont take a special gun, just a typical calking gun is all you need.

    I am fucking sick of this thing but I am hoping that the relay will fix the problem. I think I will check the fuses again in the morning it disgusts me to look at it anymore.

    digital, analog, or both? I'd say go for it. Don't know, what do you have for stock guages and how accurate are they? I know in both of my Fords it's the typical C(old), H(ot), or "Normal". (same bs with voltage and oil pressure). Would like to get rid of them simple because they're inaccurate and don't give actual numeric readings...just "Normal" or not.

    Aight, I will see if I can see anything that will tell me. Otherwise maybe I will take a wheel into TP and see if you can figure it out.

    Hey guys I have a few problems I just got my power-fc with the optional boost control kit and am having trouble wiring the solenoid. Everything is installed and hooked up except the wiring for the solenoid. The pressure sensor plugs right into the power-fc. The Commander plugs directly into the FC but the solenoid had a 2 prong plug on it that I have no idea where and what to connect it to and to top it off the instructions are in Japanese and Apexi doesn't offer an english version of the boost control kit manual. To top it all off I contacted a couple of my Japanese buddies back in Japan and they read the manual and are just as confused as me. Anyone have any experience with the optional boost control kit?

    Alright. Is there a standard size -AN fitting I should use depending on the diamter of the hard line? I am assuming something around a -3AN or so. When doing a fuel line, I would use a double flare, correct?
