Project 91 Coupe to AAN'd 400+HP SSSSSSSSSSomething

[elijahallens2]

Hey all, its been a while since I posted on my ongoing project. I have had the car to the track once again this month and once again had some more issues. The RS tuning tube header I am using developed a crack due to the WG pipe not being mounted. The crack is just around the base of the pipe that holds the WG so I should be able to get it welded and brace it off well enough for the next event or untill I get the new header built. The other problem I was having was boost kept being held back after four or five laps. It would go from 24ish down to max of 10-12psi. Still not sure whats causing this but it seems heat related. Other than that the car ran great. I have it at a friends shop now and this weekend plan to do the DSY 6 speed swap as well as the 044 Bosch Motorsport fuel pump. I also just got a 928 S4 MAF that I am sending off to be reprogramed to work with my setup and hope to have that in soon as well. Here is a picture of the 928 MAF next to the RS2 unit.

Here is a picture of the RS2 shift linkage for the tranny swap. I also have a B4 front subframe, 4000Q propshaft, and S2 ABY front halfshafts to make this work.

Elijah, what are the p/ns cast into the aluminum mounts for the transmission?
Thanks, Chris

I'll look when I'm at the shop tomorrow. They are the RS2 trans brackets.

Hey guys, ok little recap of progress, car is running well other than MAF's
being eaten every week or so (think I have this problem figured out), I am
putting the DSY 6 speed in this weekend and first problem is I can't get it to
go in reverse, I have the RS2 shift linkage and shifter but as soon as it feels
like its going in it just stops. Second problem is the clutch pedal feels like
it only goes part way down before it just stops. This is the same clutch and
pressure plate that I used with the stock coupe tranny, could this be the
problem?? Also, is the coupe TOB the same as the AAN TOB (throw out bearing)?

Procon 10 bracket needed to be cut, done.

Speed sensor needs to be pulled out of the way of the RS2 shifter and closer look at cut on the procon 10 bracket.
