    Need some help with my bpt swap in my mx3 gs

    Alright i swapped a bpt in for the v6 in my mx3 and have a few loose ends.
    Im using a pro lx wiring harness so i swapped over the 3 wire tps throttle body, o2 sensor, and the fuel rail harness. in the first pic on the passenger side of the fuel rail harness i have two disconnected sensors. Ive heard one is the vics and i wont use it but i cant figure out where the other one will go.



    This is a vacuum that im not sure where it exactly goes. Passenger side of the intake mani? Theres a blocked off spot there.



    The engine bay as it sits now



    the car as it sits now. Not bad for $550.



    My joke on everyone




    It does start but havent ran it long. hopefully this weekend ill get a downpipe made and the blow off valve mounted. also need to find a radiator fan. thanks for the help

    shouldve stuck with the 4 wire tps .. i felt a lot of diff adding a 4 wire tps .. car ran smoother.. but to answer your question the bronw one was for the vics the white on is for the fpr vacuume thingy ......

        That tube is the brake booster. On the n/a manifold it hooks to a port on the passenger side of the intake manifold.

            There is a metal tube that runs the length of the firewall along the top behind that AC line. I ganked mine off of a Protege LX...2 bolts nothing major. From there it hit the passenger side of the intake as others have said.

              first off, find a NA intake manifold, you'll yeild all around better results. the 2 plugs are (vics, & FPR) the bpt fpr is disty side ( why i don't know)

                So i got those few things tied up and the bov mounted and hooked up but still not running real smooth and if you give it gas itll choke out. It had a little bad gas in it so we added some stabilizer then put half tank of 92 octane. Going to maybe check fuel pump or filter. anyone have any ideas.

                  stabilizer wont turn bad gas into good gas.. bad is bad. You need to drop the tank, drain it, then clean it out.

                  Dont mix good gas with bad gas... it will still run like ass. That and all of the contaminates will sink to the bottom of the tank and stay in there until you clean it out.

                            Well got it running took it around the block a few times. Its still not idling perfect and sometimes hesitates so im going to try to figure the problem out then immediatly go and get the downpipe made.

                              the lack of an exhaust system could be contributing to it running funny
