Is it safe to pull the fuel plate all the way out? If not what is a good fuel plate for a 97 215h

Yes you can remove it completely, but you're going to need a lot of turbo to keep it cool, and a lot of clutch to go with that.

Depends on how the AFC is setup, along with other mods. For an unmodded AFC, you still won't get full rack travel out of it.

All I have done is turn the star wheel 40 clicks twords the engin

I would start by bumping the stock plate forward first with the AFC. That at least keeps you in the safe area before you need a clutch, turbo etc. About an extra 100 ponies for that .

Ok thanks I will do that.

jared thompson

What size of bolt wil I need to replace the tamper proof bolt?

Tate

M6x1.00mm. Get socket head cap screws, makes everything easier in there.

Lil Dog

X2...Get 2 for both of the slot screws.

Thanks guys that will save me a lot of running to town when I get things apart.

I always replace all four bolts with allan heads.
Why use two wrenches when you can use one?

jared thompson

That's a good idea makes sence to me.

grind your stock plate to get a more steady fuel curve.

jared thompson

How much would you grind it?

I usually go perpendicular to the plate at the furthest point back of everything on it from the factory and give it a little ramp at the bottom for the last 3/8" with a small flat spot on the end of the ramp so its not a sharp edge at the very bottom. I think its called a 100 profile which is a combination of a 10 and a 0 plate, a 0 plate being straight down with no ramp.
