Map sensor adaptor harness

Built this adaptor harness for donavans car, it has a new style map sensor plug and we were updating it to the older style ebay 3 bar connector, it plugs in to the stock harness and changes the map sensor over to a older style map plug, nice and neat. easier than working on the harness in the back of the car.

got the firebird running on the ebay 3 bar map, and the HPtuners 3 bar Custom OS for now, doing good, they are going to install the methanol kit and the fuel pump next and then we will see what kinda numbers we can get out of this pig







Excited to see this today, over 2000 subscirbers and almost 4 million views for sloppy mechanics youtube channel!

Fixed my turbo drain

Had some problems with it seeping and I had a mess of pipe fittings converting it to -8 and it leaked like a bitch, finally put a -10 two bolt and bought a -10 90 to push lock that was super expensive but it doesn't leak anymore haha

Swapping tq converters in the sunbird

Before the racing tomorrow so long as the weather holds out. Other converter was giving is issues so we threw in a spare we had lol

doing some product testing R&D

Recently i was asked if i would take what i am doing with the MS2 and see if i could make LSX engines run on this EMSpro built by EFI Source, a company only a few miles away from me. Having more on board features, and what looks to be an even easier setup with wiring. I will be wiring it up and testing it out, probably also making some video of it of course.
