She's Alive!!!!
It is with great pleasure that I finally get to announce that my SVX is back up and running!
As some of you already know, Nate helped install a newly built engine and a supercharger that I purchased from JaySVX earlier this year. It took quite a bit of effort to get it working correctly, but it is now finally up and running and I couldn't be happier with the performance gains. It is sooo much fun to drive now http://youtu.be/LhUlRHvYQ9Y For pics of the install that Nate did, please see my SVX pics folder: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?...1&l=62f5a15213

Re: She's Alive!!!!
Thanks I still have some bugs to work out....most notably i'm getting an engine code 55 that is causing the check engine light to come on, but hopefully I can get that resolved soon.

Re: She's Alive!!!!
The CA models have a temp sensor in the EGR system. A crude operational check ....
Find the FSM online and see details. /T |

Re: She's Alive!!!!
Prior to the issue that just came up (small fire in the engine compartment) it was running fabulously! Very quick and felt just like the SVX should feel. Granted, I am not looking to set any ground speed records, I just wanted a little more pep in my drive.

Re: She's Alive!!!!
by FSM I assume you mean the service manuals? I'll take a look and see if I can find anything in there. I assume on the PDF versions I can just search for EGR and find what you're talking about?
