Hey Tuners,This one has me stumped, folks. I’m currently pulling apart an engine I’m swapping from one car to another for a freshening up and I came across a single exhaust port that has nearly no carbon buildup, while the others have what I consider typical buildup. I went ahead and pulled...
Hey guys,So as the title says I'm running really lean on idle, like 18.0-20.1, after a hard pull last night and I have no clue why. The wideband is a brand new mtx-l that I just calibrated last week so it cannot be reading wrong. Listening for exhaust leaks I cannot really hear any and the...
Alright, so like the title of the thread says, I'm looking for the two grommets that the windshield washer fluid pumps insert into to seal the pump to the fluid reservoir. I've looked everywhere and cannot find just the grommet without buying a whole pump. JNZ claims they have them but according...

I have searched all afternoon but have not been able to find an appropriate answer.I was hoping someone could tell me if it is okay to run the stock wastegate directly off of the boost source nipple on the turbo (t25) rather than using the bcs or a mbc. I read in my Chilton manual that when...
Hey guys, I'm doing a trans filter change and fluid change today and had a quick question. When I got the pan down, the magnets had a sort of magnetic sludge over them. It was very fine and did not have any big pieces of metal, just a sludge like consistency of magnetic material. I was just...
