BlacksportD has been very lenient with me and my requests. I keep pulling in a P0430 code. I checked the entire ECU harness and it works great. I even watched the live monitor on techstream for some weird ass reason I saw the bank 2 sensor go above the voltage and I have no idea why when bank 1 and bank 2 are using the same power source. So what I want to try is having the harnessed swapped. If the code comes up on bank 1 instead of bank 2 then its the sim. However.. I tested the unit myself and Shaun uses excellent quality parts. I think its my car somehow. I think we are going to try a higher resistor value. Ethier way.. if this does not work then I am just going to install an inline o2 sim and leave the other sensors in the car for the heater.

^^ for every X amount of cars, there will be the evil gremlin car, sucks!

Yeah, that brings up a point, that if it passes a continuity check, that still does not isolate if the insulation is compromised and grounding, or rubbing with a voltage source, especially with so much distance to travel. It would be best to be there live and do various tests (meter, OBDII logging etc) on both of your guy's cars(well, Nyke did a lot of testing himself, but another person on hand could help), but your both so far away. Over the internet and phone troubleshooting is hard for both parties.
We shall see what happens this time around, if not i am just going to opt for the o2 sims and leave the heater circuit intack. I think that will work as well.

^^ I got it in. When are you going to make a thread about your boost?
Well the car is really in bad shape for what I want it to be, plus everyone has so many build threads its rediculous.

Basically right now I have a bracket that houses the procharger c2 that was made at my old high school metal shop, i bring my car thier every one in awhile so they can make me something. it keeps them busy and out of trouble.

It was running at 8 PSI on 440c injectors with Emu. I however hate the Emu and wish I could afford stand alone. The exhaust is zerd style headers with megan and its stock from the b-pipe back. Its a slow working progress. I am taking my car to sasser exhaust customs this spring and I hope to install my BC 264's. I just however use the vehicle as a daily driver here and thier so putting in a headgasket to run more boost at this time just is not viable with my time frames. I also want to do a fuel return before i start boosting it again. Ontop of that I need a Walboro.

SO basically i still need.

Walboro
Fuel Return
Headgasket
Functional way to bypass my emission sensors!

I since then have removed the procharger (no oil lines FTW!) and reverted back to stock. I should be getting a company car soon so.. when I do then its all heads in and then maybe il make a post about my build.
