    increased the boost car feels slower?

    He already said it HOLDS 15lbs, and are you seriously asking him if he's spinning? So all he has to do is get a "big" turbo and a dsmlink then he can crank the boost up? he's obviously looking for help and not ignoring anything but I would recommend he ignore your post. Your not very smart...

    Engine surge on reuild

    For the record, An intake leak CAN cause a consistent idle surge. I have seen it happen more than a few times.As far as the car dying after boost, are you venting you BOV to the atmosphere? What mods does the car have?

    Rough idle

    It will be on vfaq. My 90 talon acted the same way. Boggy really slow to rev, shitty idle, and it was the ignition power transistor.Invest in DSMlink. Advice to every DSMr!

    dsmlink v3 compatablilty.

    I'm about to purchase a 96 tsi w/ problems. I have the full ecmtuning v3 set up for my 90 tsi. I want to know, if I buy the cable that fits the 2g diagnostic port can I just plug my laptop to the 96 and run a CEL check to see what's codes its throwing? Or would I HAVE to put a eprom ecu and chip...

    Bogging out/ Cutting out/ as soon as it hits boost..

    Yeah that makes sence, not how my cars have acted with boost leaks but I get what your saying.SavageMotors do you have a CEL? Or does the CEL flicker or come on when the problem occurs? If so diagnosing the CEL with a meter or dsmlink if you have the ecu for it may be the way to go. But if...

    Bogging out/ Cutting out/ as soon as it hits boost..

    If a coupler was blown it would most likely idle like shit and die everytime you let off the throttle. In my experience (owned 4 DSMs everyone had boost leaks at one point) if you have a vaccume leak the car will most likely surge at idle or just idle like shit, if you have a small boost leak...

    Most embarrassing DSM moment?

    Awesome thread. Good read!I broke my 3rd to 4th shift fork when roll racing a Sr20'd 240sx this past summer. The thing is this 240 guy is well known around here and he had backed down from racing me a few times previous so surley my car breaks when we finally race lol. Closest to embarrassing...

    Just bought a 90 laser turbo 1 owner w/ 80k... Mod suggestions!?

    Like everyone else is saying. Ecmlink v3 and wideband. Stay away from aem though they don't work well with dsmlinks and it even says on dsmlink.com there not very accurate despite how much I still see people using them.

    My clutch need to be bled out

    Seeing how its so easy to bleed the clutch you should just do that and get back to us. Make sure the rubber seal in the reservoir is not all out of place.

    new to dsms, car starting to act strange.

    You have a boost leak. thats why when you turn the idle down it bogs but when idling high it runs fine. the air is flowing easier and faster past the leak making the car run "ok". Do a boost leak test. get all boost leaks out. then order something called "3g revised lifters" you can get them on...

    ECMlink Cant figure out where this knock is coming from!

    I've never seen so much timing pulled in my life. I'm pretty new to tuning. But the more timing I pull the less power I feel. I have had pretty much the same issues. here is exactly what i did to completely get rid of knock and keep a stock timing table and close to stock base timing. Not just...

    Oil pressure light on with normal oil pressure?

    I researched on this a while back but never found a sloid answer. My oil pressure light is on most the time. Every once and a while it goes off for a min or two. So i bought and installed a manual oil pressure gauge. It reads around 55 when cold and drops to 10 or 11 when fully warm. It...

    Yes, i am going to order it from the ecmlink site. ThanksAlso on the dsmlink under "o2 feedback adjustment rate" do i go up or down in numbers to richen/lean the mixture to the o2 sensor? The o2 takes a while to start cycling. How can i richen the mixture up to make it start cycling faster?

    ECMlink CEL under boost. ECMLink not showing DTCs

    I got an ECMlink for my 90' Talon TSi. Ever since I got it and got my car running things have been fine. I was getting a little knock so I started pulling degrees of timing on the path that the ECU took on my timing table. The knock reduced and everything seemed fine, that was on 11lbs of...

    General 1g cuts out at 5500rpm NOT FUEL CUT

    I adjusted the fuel pressure to 37psi after buying a new gauge just to be sure.The car also sputters and looses power at around 4k rpm about 50%to of the time. The other 50%mods it runs great to 55k then cuts out. The stock boost gauge spikes out randomly on its own wether on or off the...
