Does anyone make rebuild kits for the 420a?

k thanks

Now my engine has 145,000 miles on it, after buying the rebuild kit what else do I need to do before going to the hahn turbo?

 

[E-CLIPS97]

Well the Hahn kit comes with everything necessary to turbo your car, but it is SUGGESTED by most people on here to get:

Turbo timer
Missing Link
vortech SFMU with 12.1 disk
Boost Gauge

But I think that was it.

sorry to ask this but what is a MISSING LINK?

modernperformance.com sells kits also...trust

a missing link replaces the crappy electronic fuel cut defencer. It is a bleeder valve that goes where the MAP sensor is.

please note the respliced MAP wire, thats where the "black box" hooked up.

so by doing this and getting a missing link it will override the fuel cut to the computer

it does the same thing as a black box, but in a different way. electronic fuel cut defencers clamp the voltage on the map sensor down to hide boost, the missing link is a bleeder valve that hides any manifold pressure from the MAP sensor its self.

for me I didnt want to run the risk of the blackbox crapping out one day, and the missing link looks alot less out of place under the hood.

they have a FAQ there too. Ive linked to the missing link for 2GNTs

We've gotten way off topic, feel free to private message me with any other questions, and yes, that is my car's missing link in the picture above.
