Default WI Progressive kit installed finally.

Finally got my progressive kit installed. It was all done 2 weeks ago except the controller didn't work so I had to wait on a new one which just came yesterday. Put both the pump and the tank in the trunk and ran the line through the passenger side firewall break. I can't hear the pump while it's running so I'm pretty happy with the location. I haven't gotten a chance to test it out much aside from making sure it works so I'll add an impressions section later.

Pics of everything:

Nozzle location:

Yeah, I went a little crazy with the silicon gasket maker. But at least it won't leak...

Seen from above with everything installed...

Pump Location:

Had to get a little creative with the dremel since I didn't realize that I had covered up one of the pump's ports.

Tank Location:
Just used some screws and washers to mount this. At first I was going to use a bolt and nut combo until I realized that it would have been ridiculously hard to get the nut/bolt tight without taking the paneling off. Plus the screws hold it really well.

Controller:
It definitely blends a lot better in person. The wires are less noticeable when you don't have a flash on them.

And what the hell, how about a picture of my car's sexy backside.

What to be scared of? No more knock, cooling boost temps and added octane!

Yeah, I took it out for a quick spin yesterday and it worked well for the most part. I did a 3rd and 4th gear WOT run and got a somewhat-metallic clacking sound high in the 4th gear RPMs as my knock retard jumped from 2.x to 6.0. I immediately backed off and it went away. I've never heard knock before in person but I'm guessing that's what I was hearing. Anyway I took out my spark plugs to have a look at them a couple hours ago and they were fouled just like Darksun's were (here Hows my spark plugs looking?) from the octane booster. I'm HOPING that it was spark knock due to the fouled spark plugs. Anyway, I cleaned them off with a wire brush and did some no-load racing to help de-foul them. I'll have to see if that helped tomorrow.

The 2.x knock retard was much lower than what I was getting before meth injection. But I really think the knock sensor is just ridiculously sensitive and I'll never be completely rid of the knock retard.

You are going to have to dial in the spray now. Also, did you check the spray pattern of the nozzle before you reassembled?

Its not recommended that you brush iridium plugs. But if its just a band aid till you get new ones i guess its ok. If you need a new set of stockers, i have a set at the dealers for cheap. Otherwise go step 1 colders.

I dialed in the spray as best I could with one person. I had it turn on at roughly 3 PSI and go to full at roughly 12 PSI. I say roughly because it's really hard to look at the road, the dashhawk, and the controller at the same time. I need to get a friend to ride along with me. I wasn't aware that spray pattern was something I needed to check. What exactly should I look for?

Yeah, I'm running the NGKs right now. I may just go back to stock plugs because I really didn't notice enough improvement to justify spending another $40 on a new set.
