Yea this mistake has cost me 300 already which i shouldve just used to rebuild the 16g in the first place. I just wanted a quick fix and because of that its costing me.Im using a stock metal 1g supply line off the head and i checked for kinks and its ok. I used some thick hydraulic hose for...
Hi guys. Well heres the issue(s) im having. To make a long story short I have been through 3 turbos in the last month(t25 and 2 14bs). My problem is they keep smoking after boosting and only after boosting. The first 14b I put in let oil into my intake so I figured it was the turbo and I picked...
Hi guys I usually don't post much but would def like to meet more dsmers. Pavilions and all others just got old. Whens the next chandler in & out meet? I definitely would like to attend
Thanks for all the input guys. I think I might as well upgrade to a 16g. And yea it was only my second time at the track so I guess I got a little excited.My first time I was running 14.8s. Ill just have to keep on practicing hopefully Ill get there.Thanks for every ones advice I will definitely...
Well my mods are fmic, mbc set at 15psi, 14b, k&n filter, turbo back 3" exhaust with high flow cat,rc 550cc injectors and tuned with safc.Ive gotten better and better at the launching and slipping the clutch not just dumping it. I was launching around 5300 to 5500rpm.Should I be doing better...
Ok I know this is a bit late but I had my 2nd trip to the track last weekend.My best run looked like this:reaction: .3867
60ft: 1.9300
330ft: 5.8657
1/8 ET: 9.1035
1/8 mph: 76.911/4 ET: 14.2291
1/4 mph 95.28What do you guys think? I want to get in...
Thanks to everyone that has chimed in.Well to my surprise my oil pressure it back to normal(according to stock gauge) and I haven't had the smoking problem anymore.Oil level is also fine.So Im very lost and confused now.The other wierd thing is that if I'm in 2nd gear and do a pull it boosts to...
I've tried the coil over sleeve kits in my Honda days:barf: and as Boosted3s said they ride like crap.Plus they can also sometimes adjust height on their own which I found anoyying to keep having to re adjust every time.
it was building boost fine before this. This all started happening after a trip to the track. Maybe I pushed it too hard for how old it is? At the track I also noticed that when I tried to up the boost a bit with the MBC it still wouldn't boost past 1 5psi.I found a 14b in good condition in my...
Yes it has very little play. Just the turbine looks pretty banged up. Will it help to come to a conclusion if I check for oil in the intercooler piping and exhaust down pipe?Also why would it just smoke after a while of idling and not smoke all the time?
Thanks for the advice. It just started doing this recently.One thing I forgot to mention is when I got the car the guy told me he had taken it to a shop (ums racing) and they had told him that the turbo was going out. Also when I build boost it sounds like a supercharger sound. Will it help if...
So I've searched the forum for an answer but haven't found one pertaining exactly to what's happening to me.My car gives out a white/grayish smoke from the exhaust. This only happens when I leave it idling for a while and then drive it. It only lasts a bit after I start driving it and then...
Thanks for the info.My car is running good but at the time the safc was reading knock but I didnt notice any difference in power or driveability. That is the reason I was curious about the knock readings that the safc gave out.sorry for the confusion.Since then knock has disappeared after I did...
Ok so Ive been contemplating about what turbo I have so if anyone can help it is much appreciated.numbers on turbo:
TD05h
49178-05200I've searched around have found that this is a 16g part number, but the 16g is supposed to have double fins from what I've found.I haven't counted the...
Well for now its all I have but I do plan on getting dsm link once I get back on my feet. Just want to get this figured out before I hurt the car or something.
:hmm:Well I have read that they were very inaccurate but nothing that said that they didn't work.This is the first car Ive had an safc with so Im very new to them and don't know much about them. That would be a relief tho.
thanks I will check it tomorrow.Make sure its on there good.Is there another way to check it(i.e. voltage it should be putting out ) I dont really have any funds right now and Im hoping its not something serious.:cry:
Well ive searched online including this forum and still can't find a streight answer to my question.So today I put on my 1g bov I bought from a guy that was parting his car.I used to have an Apexi on ther venting to the atomosphere.Well after enough reading and research I actually want to do...
