Bill, can I assume that you, AND ONLY YOU, are doing the install in your shop?

With that...I can expect that it will be done correctly!!!

For guys with brand new sleds going turbo out of the box, youd be best to get 3 hrs on it and get passed the break in on the ECU, else youll be hitting DET all day.

Im not an expert on this... but talking with bryan(liv4turbo), he said he had his new 12 out wit 0 miles and the sled would DET, but once past the 3hr break in period it was good.

Maybe if he reads this he can chime in better than i can.

Turbo Time

The 3hr brake in is a must in my opinion i road my sled yesterday that everyone saw at the snow show and hit the det light a few times i was able to tune it out most of the way with the box but not all the way just better to get that 3hr on the sled so Justin and i don't get a bunch of phone calls we can help the sled not det but not all the way if you have any further questions pm or call me i will be away from the computer for a few days thanks

Are the fuel line release tools just a plastic disc like thing? That's what the guy at napa sold me, not sure about it?

Yup, with a little cut in it so it can be opened and placed around the fuel line.. to push in and release the clips holding the line in

Right they look like a bottle cap with a small end and a cut lengthwise to slide over the hard fuel pipe, then push the fuel lind on as far as it will go then slide the tool small end forward into the fuel line and push both the tool and the fuel line off the pipe. The tool will only push so far then just continue to pull the fuel line until it comes off the pipe. It may take a couple times to get the line off.

What rpm does the boost start? I assume it has no boost just reving the engine on a stand correct. 1st ride in 2 days.

 

[Silber]

You can build boost on track stand if you really rev it. Theres not enough load on the engine to get enough exhaust gas velocity to build boost.

CAREFUL ON HOW TIGHT YOU DO THE AIRBOX TO THROTTLE BODY BOOT BOLTS

I didnt even do mine that tight and first ride it went.

The bolts are not "to hold it together" once the TB's are seated in the boot there in there friggen good and once the airbox iss on the TB its on there solid.

Also i had one of the allen bolts back out on me, so maybe a dab of blue loctite on them wouldnt be a bad idea.
