Yes hopefully so. Cause even in Adaptronic they were quite confused when we told them that we suspect that those pins are the problem.

Well, here it is...

I changed spark plugs to racing plugs.  I checked with endoskope, that everything should be ok in side engine. Seemed abit dry, so I squirted some oil inside.

And my friend made huge job, checking all those pins and changing them to new adapters. Also, he had to change few bad pins.

I almost started with first go, but I pooped a bit and backed down...
Second try was abit harder, and it wouldnt start. We realized that its running really rich, and neaded some "footwork" to get running. So, with thirds try, she started...

First smokes

In first start we realized also that MaP isnt getting any info. So I changed its place in intake manifold.

At this point I was, how I say, confused with happines. I even didnt remember were I put that MaP hose in the first place

So, after few checks, second smokes

Third start was actually quite easy. Friend figure out how car wants to start.

Actually, it starts very easily. I was amazed. Needs abit throttle, and she runs.

However, we realized that for some reason lambda is showing some weird numbers, so we suspect that it got too much smoke, oil, and fuel. So I have to clean it, before next try.

Car sounds quite quiet actually. I was surprised. Engine pulses nice, altough I suspect that front rotors one apex seal is not yet attached and leaks compression. Overlap isnt too bad either

Oil pan leaks, but I suspect that its my baffle plates fault. And some little other leaks.

Anyhoo, at this point Im quite happy

Third go

Oh, and story about those pins. There is two kinds of pins basically, "small and big one. For some reason, those smaller ones are quite loose to ecu. So, even tho using stock harness and pins to Adaptronic, they might NOT get good content.

So, I advice all to check it pin by pin if possible. I tested it when my friend showd me that difference. Quite big actually. Im not saying that it anybodys fault, Adaptronics or pin makers, but tolerances are so small, that it might cause problems.

All those being said, even tho we triple checked every pin, we did found out that there where few pins that were badly crimped. So, some weird things that these electrics did, was our fault.
