    FP TD05H 8cm Turbine Housing

    Does anyone know where I can find a Forced Performance TD05H 8cm Turbine Housing? I contacted FP and they said that they do not have any in stock and they do not plan to make more any time soon. Thanks!

    Crank to flywheel dowel pin

    I have read some threads on here saying that 2G's never had a dowel pin on the crank to align the flywheel. I am in the middle of a clutch job on my 99 GSX, and it did not have the dowel pin in it. However, the previous owner had replaced the clutch, so he may have lost it when he replaced the...

    HX-52 Turbine Housing A/R

    Does anyone know what the A/R is for the "T5" exhaust housing of the Holset HX-52, or at least a ballpark comparison to another housing on the market (like the 1.10 A/R T4 Borg Warner housing). Thanks!

    Lean at idle, rich at WOT, knock from 2k to 3k RPMs. Please help!

    Me and my friend installed FP 1x cams, evo 8 beehives, revised lifters, and all of the timing belt stuff a few months ago on my 99 GSX with 60,000 miles on it. The car ran ok, but it had a little rough of an idle. I assumed it was just because of the cams and needing a new tune. The car sat...

    Project "Go as fast as I can on a budget"

    What's up guys? Since my Eclipse project is coming to a close, I have a new project that I have somewhat recently acquired. I picked up a 1992 Talon TSi AWD shell in New Jersey a few months ago. Yes, it is Casey Barrett's old black talon that Sean(Slippi84) bought. You may recognize this car...

    Harsh rattle after timing belt job

    Just finished doing a timing belt job, which included taking the head off to install new cams, valve-springs, and lifters, on my 99 Eclipse GSX. After my buddy and I finished, I drove 5 miles back to my house. Along the way, a very harsh rattle started to develop that I could feel in the...

    6 Bolt Manley rods with 22 mm pin hole?

    I bought a set of used Manley H-beam rods from a member here and he told me they were 6-bolt rods with a 22 mm wrist pin hole. The hole measures in at 22 mm, but could you guys help me with figuring out if the big end will work with a 6 bolt crank? I have a set of 7 bolt rods and the caps are...

    Project 10's for Under 10K: Update 2

    I haven't updated this in a while, so I thought it was time I did. First up, I got the head off the 6-bolt and it looked pretty good, just a lot of carbon deposits. Here are some pics after my buddy and I got the pistons out:When we turned it over and took the pistons out and found...

    Standard ARP Head-studs or L19's?

    I am building a 6-bolt for my Talon and I don't know if I need L19 head-studs for my setup or if I can just go with the standard ones. This is a budget build so I am trying to save money where I can. I will be running a 1g rod/2g piston combo w/ arp rod bolts and shooting for 500-600 whp. Thanks.

    Are these rods usable/repairable

    I bought a 6-bolt motor with 160k on it for my project car for $300 hoping to rebuild it and I came across this:This was the worst of the rods. This is the first time I have ever built/rebuilt an engine so I am asking for advise on what I can do with these rods. Also, I was wondering...

    Project 10's for Under 10K Update 1

    I have finally made some progress on my project 10's. I was able to pick up a 6-bolt motor, drive-shaft, front and rear bumper covers, and a side panel that is in front of the door for $380 thanks to Boosted_out. I started tearing the motor down but I haven't got the head or pan off, probably...

    Problem with TPS adjustment after 1G TB install on my 99

    First off, I recently installed a 91-94 60mm TB onto my 99 GSX. I transferred my TPS and ISC from by stock TB to the new one like I was supposed to. I use Evoscan 2.8 for data-logging and at wide open throttle, the TPS % is only reading 94%. I thought this might effect my WOT fueling so I...

    New Project! Picking up where Sean(Slippi84) left off.

    Hey guys! I just picked up my second DSM a few weeks ago from Sean aka Slippi84. You may recognize this car from his Project 9's No Compromise build blog. I picked up the shell for $2000. I just couldn't pass up such a nice start to a track-only project car. It needs many things, including...

    First time on the dyno! Better than expected!

    Well I finally got my 99 GSX on the dyno last Saturday and the results were much better than expected. On a Mustang dyno at R/T Tuning, my Evo 3 16G at 23-24 psi put down 316 whp and 310 wtq. I thought this was pretty good considering the motor is completely stock(valve cover has only been off...

    My First DSM: Update 5

    Hey guys! I've been gathering up parts for a little winter project for the last few months while in school. Last thing I did on the car was install my Jusmx Holset 20 psi actuator to my Evo III 16G. With it set to about 23 psi dropping to 20 by redline, I was able to run a 13.2@105. Still no...

    ECUflash Running Lean

    First of all, I am running ceddymods on my 99 ecu. I have my fuel maps set up at 11.2 to 10.8 AFR from 5500 to 7000, but at the track, my wideband was reading 12.0-11.8, which was causing a lot of knock. I had to set my AFR's to 10.0-9.8 to get it to stop knocking, but AFR's were still in the...

    My First DSM: Update 4

    Finally got my Evo III 16G in this weekend. Big thanks to my friend Rob for helping me out. It went pretty smoothly, and the car feels great. The idle keeps dipping kind of low after driving which may be a boost leak so I'll check that when I get the chance. At 11 psi it pulls much harder to...

    My First DSM: Update 3

    It's nearly time to finally put in my Evo III 16G and put my T-25 to shame. I just got it back from my friend Mark who did a great job porting and cleaning everything up on both my used 16G and my used Evo III Exhaust Manifold. I'm very happy with the results and I can wait to put it in this...

    Quick 16G install question

    I am going to be installing my Evo III 16G into my 2G this weekend and I have all the necessary hardware to install it, including an SS oil feed line from the head, and I was wondering if I can use the plug on the head to plug the hole on the oil filter housing that will be there when I remove...

    My First DSM: Update 2

    I was able to get up to the track again on Friday with my boost leak fixed and with nicer(cooler) weather. The results were relieving. After owning and slowly working on the car for over a year I was finally able to make some progress from stock 1/4 mile numbers. The last time I was out my...

    Anyone use FP 1x cams?

    I've been trying to figure out what cams I should get for my setup and all my research led me to the FP 1x. I have a 16G setup and it is my daily driver, so I was really considering a 264 style camshaft, but I also like taking my car to the strip and a 272 style cam would help me more there. I...

    My First DSM: Update 1

    Well I finally made it out to the track again and this time I had somewhat better results. Thanks to a 5000 rpm 2-step I was able to improve my best 60' from a 2.204 to a 1.959. I ran a best of 14.933 @ 90.03. This is better but definitely not as good as I was hoping. I believe there are a...

    MR O2 Housing, 4 bolts or 3 bolts and stud

    I am getting a Megan Racing O2 housing to put on my Evo III 16G and I was about to order new bolts from the O2 housing to the turbine housing and I'm wondering if I can just get 4 bolts or do I have to get one stud because one of the bolts won't be able to fit?

    Can the AEM UEGO controller log lower than 10.0 AFR?

    I'm trying to decide which wideband to go with and the AEM seems to be the a good choice but I noticed that the gauge only reads to 10.0. I know that this is pretty rich already but I might want to be able to log below that just in case. Does anyone know?

    550's or 650's?

    I know this question has been asked many times but I'm stuck. I can't choose between 550 or 650 injectors. I am planning on running a E3 16G setup with a wideband and ecuflash to tune. I run 93 octane and will probably not boost past 22 lbs. Will 550's be enough for that or should I just go...

    Does anyone know if there are any kits out there to install a 16G on a 2G without the J-pipe, I already have one. If there isn't a kit, where is the cheapest place to go to get the oil feed/return lines, gaskets, washers, and water lines separately?

    Throttle Body Coolant Lines

    I'm trying to remove and clean my throttle body and I'm stuck at the coolant lines. I'm not sure whether to drain all of the coolant and remove the lines or just remove and clamp them. Which would be easier since it's kind of hard to get to those lines.

    Just got my vacuum gauge in and its reading 19 in. Hg. I heard that somewhere between 16 and 18 is good, so is my reading too high and if so what does that mean. I know that a low reading means a boost leak. Keep in mind it was a cold startup.
