Project Supercharged Grocery Getter
Well, I am prepping my 2001 V6 Galant for the installation of the RIPP SDS tuner kit. I would like to document the process so that I can share some tips that I have learned. I have already done some fuel system upgrades, but I'll try to take pictures of the rest of the install.
Here's what I have done so far:
Installed GReddy eManage Ultimate
Installed Zex spark plugs x6
Installed Walbro 255 fuel pump
Here's what I have left to do:
Install 440cc injectors
Install RPW shorty headers
Install AEM wideband
Install SDS (this will probably be the easiest part)
Tune++
I plan to tune everything myself since the eManage Ultimate makes is really easy to establish an initial tune if you have a wideband. I've run into some problems so far, but nothing major yet. I had an issue with my fuel pump assembly (split o-ring on the feed line) but I fixed it up with some sealant and some good grease. I will eventually replace the o-ring but the fuel trims are about correct (compensating for a somewhat rich condition) and don't seem to fluctuate so I'll just leave it for now.
Next up is the installation of the injectors. I'll continue to update, possibly with pics.
