Sharing an intermediate’ update. Not too much newness but some progress.

The manifold is coming together with brass inserts and mounting of the MAP sensor and IAT sensor. The IAT is from an Audi 1.8T…a good sensor.

Also, after three tries I finally successfully printed the back cover. This one is tricky bc there’s a lot of support material that was impossible to remove on my first tries. Even the Bambu PA support material which is made for this was impossible to remove. I ended up using ASA on the support interface and it worked perfectly. A huge unlock for printing in nylon.

The throttle body brass inserts mount from the back. They are crazy strong, but this is a spot where I wanted to make sure they couldn’t pull out.
