ok engine runs perfect fuel pump is fixed i felt it run on 3 cyclinders in firts gear brought it back to garage switched to my accel wires put the car in reverse backed up then could not get it into 1 gear then rerlized the speedo gear clip and gear had fallen into the tranny when i removed the old motor so i took a chance on running it and sure enough it found its way into locking the tranny . but on the bright side i alreaddy found another tranny for 50 bucks and i was still running the stock gt clutch so i can take this time to get a good clutch and really feel how its soupposed to be .

Cause of the cops in California, if you lived here, you'd understand immediately, but I don't think you do.
Thanks to all the nice street ricer kids, cops like to pop the hoods on most cars that they have a feeling might be modified, and things like painted valve covers, breather filters, what have you, don't help when it comes ticket time.
The stock gtx has a heat shield which looks stock as can be if combined with stock gtx piping. But yeah, shiny of bright things, if seen, tend to draw attention from the wrong people.1997 Protegé ES: The Power of BP

I figure if you have an exhaust or anything done to your car then your a target then if thats the case. I understand the emissions laws in cali. I mean anyone is a target if thats the case but pulling over a wagon, it would be my last thought to look under the hood. but i see your point.Cincinnati, ohio Bengals for life

ya ive always been the type to just have everything under the hood really stand out even if its not modifyed so not when it is i keep the total sleeper on the out side and all out under the hood u know if im being stupid and ask for a ticket then its just bound to get pulled over but even this one hyway patrol who hated me tryed to look all around my car trying to get me for any thing still never asked me to pop the hood them dont do that much here unless u have a shinny intercooler on the front of your car in which i have the gtx side mount so they will never know ha ha ha ha ha ha .

When I did mine it ran so much better. Smoother idle and acceleration.
On a side note, you say you have to put the tps sensor on and adjust it correct? Are you going to install it on a manual throttle body? If so it won't work. You need the whole assembly.1993 Protege LX-Midnight's shadow SOLD
