One thing you could do is crimp the hose that goes to the AACV to limit the max amount of air it can flow. Quote:
Does yours ever stall when you clutch-in?

I do need to adjust the AACV to cheat the system a little. I stripped my throttle body down completely a couple years ago to clean/shave/paint it and discovered while putting it together that taking it apart was a very bad idea. The plates are a ***** to get aligned perfectly, and as a result it idles a little higher than I would like. No MT stalls for me!

Re: Crazy_Pilot's 6MT Swap (Lots-O-Pics!)
I was just going over this thread again as I am getting closer to diving into a MT swap myself and noticed that the photos you had in the first few posts have disappeared...

Huh, weird. I have those ones hosted on Facebook, so I'll have to check into it when I'm home (no access to Facebrick from work).

Re: Crazy_Pilot's 6MT Swap (Lots-O-Pics!)
Picture links have been updated, they should work now. If there's any issues in the future send me a PM, I'll see that sooner than an update on this thread.

Re: Crazy_Pilot's 6MT Swap (Lots-O-Pics!)
Thanks for all the photos and information. I'll be starting a 5 speed swap soon and so far these photos have been the most useful I've seen on the forum.

Re: Crazy_Pilot's 6MT Swap (Lots-O-Pics!)
Man, I started this back in 2012? Time flies...
I'll work on re-hosting the pictures onto our forum and updating the links. I think I was using photobucket for the original posts and obviously they like to dick with things every now and then.

Any luck in updating host sites for pictures?

Re: Crazy_Pilot's 6MT Swap (Lots-O-Pics!)
Imgur has turned out to be a pretty sturdy hosting site thats basic enough to make it simple.

Re: Crazy_Pilot's 6MT Swap (Lots-O-Pics!)

Re: Crazy_Pilot's 6MT Swap (Lots-O-Pics!)
No, no DCCD for me yet. Shortly after finishing the swap I got into this real life thing (getting married, buying a house, career, etc) and the SVX has mostly been hibernating in the garage. I think I've only put a few thousand miles on the 6-speed since installing it.
Hoping to get back to it this summer. Good luck with your swap!

Re: Crazy_Pilot's 6MT Swap (Lots-O-Pics!)
I ended up getting a MapDCCD unit because I couldn't find anywhere to physically fit the DCCDPro unit that I had into the car. I used a method I saw from another member and hard mounted the MapDCCD unit in the ashtray. They both work equally well, I installed the DCCDPro into an impreza that I 6MT swapped. Same wiring, virtually the same operation. The MapDCCD is just smaller and has a USB interface with a setup program that allows you to change settings and even to change DCCD mapping.
