the aluminum L brackets bolt to the radiator support and uses expanding screw clips on the bumper side. the whole thing just really aids in eliminating the flex and droop that happens with the stock L brackets.
 
Trying to figure out why the remote start won’t work after I pushed a bunch of buttons on accident lol. Found I don’t have a remote program switch so I made one.

Apparently rebooting the viper brain fixed all the problems. Who knew?


next part was replacing the purge solenoid valve on the vapor filter canister to fix a p0442 and p0456 evap leak small. The old one looked pretty beat inside and the new one looked to have better stuff inside.

Hatch release is fixed but the day before I took it apart the camera stopped working. Tested everything and queued up a replacement whole handle assembly from an orange turbo (trim, emblem, camera, hatch button) but didn’t pull the trigger as it’s not super important.

But today it started working again lol I did a mean burnout had the wheels hopping a bit and I put it in reverse and it popped up.

dunno. i don't always stay in the northeast. people from all over the country are always finding my car through forums as well lol
 
I like your evap smoke machine setup.
Interested to see how it works.
I ended up buying one of these for about $60, but diagnosed the problem and then sold the car before I got a chance to use it.

Seems to be the same idea.
Just be careful how much pressure you put into the system with no regulator, but you should be able to regulate with your compressor.
 
i built mine for about 50 and it's see through. the ryobi pump pushes about 6 psi into it so no problem there.

the plastic top acts as a nice insulator as well. what does the inside of yours look like?
 
It worked decent but didn’t find any leaks. Also smoked the catch can. Need a better intake cap.

Also emptied the Catch can lol

I believe the inside looks just like what you have there.
Simple heating element surrounded by a some type of material.
I don't think it's any more advanced, other than the hookup to an airline and a regulator.
same concept really
 
How much does it bother your OCD to have the door sign off kilter, but matching the body lines?

That's like a no win situation for my OCD personally lol.
Congrats on the back to back wins! Beard looking pretty COVID!
 
it doesn't bother me at all lol i just toss them on there.

a few folks discovered this weekend that my B pillars are offset by a few inches as well.

thanks about the beard, i actually shaved it 1/2 inch to fit the mask better. it made a big difference on my ears.
