Lawson's 818C

  • Engine
    • I mocked up the exhaust using my existing Boig Motorsports exhaust and a portion of the downpipe from the EJ207. It won’t be as nice as the original Boig exhaust but it’ll do and it didn’t cost me anything extra.
    • A short drive with the exhaust confirmed that all my low-speed engine issues were just caused by atmospheric air interfering with the primary O2 sensor.
    • After the exhaust is finished I should be able to drive the car with full boost and no codes!
  • Chassis
    • Fixed my front left upper control arm which was installed with the bushings upside down. I’ve known this for a while but haven’t resolved until now.
    • Tied down the front portions of the coolant pipes.
    • Changed front alignment for less toe in and fixed the positive camber to make it ~2 degrees negative now. Made the car a lot more stable than it was last test drive.

  • Fixed front control arm orientation


  • Coolant pipe tie down. Had to move my ground.


  • Coolant pipe tie down


  • Tilted the exhaust to clear the frame


  • Mocked up exhaust for the EJ207 setup
