Fwiw, i am still using a modified stock dsm drain line at the oil pan, 3/4" hose barb off the bottom of my hx35, two hose clamps and 3/4" hose and it has been working perfectly for coming up on almost a year now.

The car will have some bc280/280's, dual springs, brand new valves, guides and seals and of course more boost and evo 3 intake with 1g throttle body. So she should easily be in the 10's with my drag radials on. Only time will tell though!

I have been running that stock setup since September if i recall correctly. She held LOTS of street pulls (50+ without a doubt) but im fairly sure the motor gave up when it had its wierd random hiccup/sputtering in the tune at the 20-25psi and put alot of stress on the internals. I believe if it...

Sorry to disappoint you guys but wont be giving you live results on my boost/ rpm spool times. My poor stock 7 bolt with over 100k miles decided she wanted no more on Sunday afternoon while casually speeding up 3 blocks from my house. 20-25psi and about 3500rpm car had a wierd stutter in the...

Not often do i floor the car at 2500rpm and test the spool up of my car, but with a couple logs in front of me right now. At 3515 rpm going full throttle, i go from -5 in/hg to 35psi in less than 2 seconds. I practically never start a pull under 3500rpm now that the car is tuned BUT with me...

Just for comparison, Im running a morrison fab consolidated runner twin scroll t3 manifold and hx35 @ 35psi on my bone stock 7 bolt in my 95 talon awd auto. I seen 24psi by 3400rpm and 35psi by 3900 rpm. The thing literally spools faster than my ported 2g manifold and 16g combo lol. At 35psi the...

Im running a bone stock 7 bolt with literally only headstuds my 95 awd auto car with a t3 twin scroll hx35 at 35psi on e85, @MorrisonFab consolidated runner twin scroll t3 manifold and FIC 1220s. I have less than $4k in the whole build including buying the car LOL. Have ran a best of 11.55 @...

black97spyder submitted a new DSM Profile :95 talon tsi awd autoRead more about this vehicle here...

Sounds like your stock t25 isnt enough turbo for you. They dont like to pull real hard, and max out completely at about 17psi. Get a front mount intercooler to help with heat soak of the stock side mount and make sure all couplers are tight and leak free. You have no mechanical issues it doesnt...

Cool story! .... dad ;). Glad you have learned to love these little beasts. And even dusted a local 11 second v8 malibu with a powerglide, 4:56 gears, trans brake and 400+ cubic inch stroker motor in your little awd beast. Just goes to show these things will blow peoples minds every day of the...

An automatic dsm will always be faster than an equally modded 5 speed. The automatic's hold a TON more power stock than a 5 speed ever thought about. 5 speeds have broke a near stock power levels while a stock auto with shift box has held 600+ all day long. Ive drove both and i personally think...

My wally 450 is rewired and I don't have any issues with it at all

Sorry guys, been busy and haven't had time to update.Car only has 84 miles on it still due to the oil leak ive been procrastinating fixing. So i finally found the oil leak culprit after tearing the timing belt stuff off and pulling the crank sprocket off. The damn crank seal was leaking like a...

Well have another update, motor, trans and turbo now have 67 miles on them all... been fighting an oil leak that is under the timing cover that I just cannot pinpoint for the life of me, I have now had it off 3 times trying to locate and fix the leak. I just want to be able to drive the car so...

Its a very tight fit, it could be possible to remove the w/p with the timing belt on but I really wouldn't try it... just do your standard timing belt job and w/p replacement at the same time and mark that maintenance off your list. It would be much more recommended to do it that way

Looking forward to it!

Thanks man! Build has taken alot of time and hard work so im glad everything is going decently smooth so far.I pm'd you like you asked

After the dyno results are in, you should test the difference between the jmf street and jmf drag ;).How much faster does it revv up top through the top end of the power band compared to the cyclone?These results are going to influence my manifold choice for sure :thumb:

GREAT NEWS!!! Car started right up in less than 5 seconds on its first try!! :thumb:... have been having my1gdsm tuning the car again for the new setup. So far he is doing an AWESOME job.Here is the first startup video (technically the 2nd startup as some adjustments needed made to the global...

My 2g did something similar... check your TPS and make sure its plugged in all the way. Mine wiggled loose a little bit and created all sorts of issues like you were describing. Plugged it back in and everything worked great!If that doesnt work though let us know and we can help diagnose from...

Thanks for the clarification knochgoon24.It doesnt sound like its the problem... But the manual valve is something I that can be very easily broke when installing the valvebody back In.In order to check that you pull the trans pan, look at the passenger side of the trans when someone moved...

If the transmission pump wasnt installed right or the converter didnt get seated all 3 steps inward when re-installing the trans back into the car then it will never circulate fluid which will make it not go into any gear and cause your exactly symptoms.... but it would be MUCH more likely that...

Well I found a used 97 auto tcase yesterday for $180 so I decided I couldnt pass that good of a deal up and went and bought it :thumb:This time i got the bearing race out of the new tcase's old oem cover thanks to the help of my dad, cleaned up the burrs on the inside of the F.F cover from...

On a 2g your 4 solenoids are for reverse, 1-2, 2-3 and your lockup converter....what you said sounds logical about it grounding out but I dont think that is an issue due to not having a neutral solenoid. I would check the transmission connections under the battery area and make sure theyre...

I was having problems with my 1g for awhile with it not wanting to go into reverse.... after checking EVERYTHING, it turned out to be loose shifter cables under the console. Just something to check since it takes like 5 mins and is real easy.

Zach I have a sinister speed weighted 8" core 2 in my auto and can stall 5k+ easy all while driving like a stock converter on the street ;) :thumb:before you get down about the auto, I would try a new converter and step up the brakes so you can hold the car back. It literally is like driving...

Nice video dsmkauai! That should help the op out alot and give people a good future reference if this happens to their car

Im looking forward to seeing the results you find Keltalon!

Thanks Matt!Here are pics of my new custom vband o2 eliminator downpipe and pictures of the carnage from the tcase (im the one who made the roller bearing fall out, but it wasnt attached to the tcase shaft anymore)

Well I have a couple updates... one is good one is bad :(. So I will start out with the good news. Towed my car 1.5 miles down the road to the local exhaust shop and had my exhaust fabricated up to go around my hotside I/C piping and also around the OFH shield I made (to keep heat off the oil...

Every weekend I went to the track I would buy $20 of 110VP and add it to about 1/2 tank of 91 to help with any knock and lack of octane. Also let me push the car a little harder on the tune as I was able to add another 1-2 degrees of timing in different spots, but was only able to when I added...

Make sure the TPS connection is nice and tight, ive had mine wiggle off before and cause issues... it really sounds like u have a MASSIVE boost leak, when my first dsm had a huge boost leak it would buck and sputter really bad like you have been describing the whole time.

No looping the lines should stop all ## boost leaks... mine was the same way when I did the free FIAV blockoff.

Yeah I havent ever had any problems either, theyre actually pretty much the only vendor I buy from. Just have called em to check on my orders before if they didnt ship stuff out in the timeframe I was expecting

Have you guys called and checked up on your orders?? I have had to do that once or twice and Brian is very good at getting the orders out ASAP if u have already been waiting on your order... most of the time I was waiting on them to get a part in before they were going to ship my stuff out but...

My 1gdsm does GREAT work and is very meticulous. I would definitely ride it out with his tune until you get finished. It will definitely pay off IMO.

I all but promise that fixing the oil return line will bring all of your spool back.... as for the drain line, u could have take the stock drain and cut the flex section out of it and used rubber hose to connect the two. Works perfectly, doesnt leak, easy to maintenance, and a very cheap...

Looks really close to my illusion purple VC ;).... it looks great dave! Hope to see the 8 second pass finally!!Turbo looks beautiful justin, nice work :thumb:

Yea that is definitely WAY to small for a drain line... and will eventually ruin that turbo too, if its not draining fast enough

Actually gravedigger the oil return line not being big enough will cause lagging turbo spool. I know of 2 guys on here who upgraded their return lines to a bigger size and got about 300-400 rpm better spool with ONLY changing the return line size and nothing else... both were running holsets...

Really?? My P.R t3 hotparts kit that is on my car came off their shop street car when they sold it in the classifieds like 8 months ago :hellyeah: so I def need to come by and chat with you and the SIM guys.

Thanks victor! The nos looks pretty sick mounted in the spair tire well :cool:... if your going to the shootout I will be there this year for sure, dont know of my dad can make it but I will definitely be there so you should stop and chat for a bit. :thumb:

Thanks shsking11! Its came a long ways in the last year.Should have a startup video in the next 2 weeks or so... still trying to figure out how I am going to fab my exhaust since I cant weld myself and it has to contour around my oil filter shield and hotside I/C piping so I cant take the...

Got some more updates. Got almost all of my wiring done. Just need to wire up my nitrous and oil pressure gauge and that stuff is done.. finally got my throttle body elbow back after 2 weeks, it now has my AIT, water/meth and nitrous bungs welded into in. I also got my fuel line cut to size...

Could be very possible, also could be a larger than stock fuel pump with no aftermarket adjustable fuel pressure regulator

Automatic or manual? Im guessing manual since you said your times are all over the place... seems a little slower than what I would expect. im building an all out 2g with 6 blade hx40 and know I can hit mid 11's easy on w.g. pressure of 22psi but I am automatic instead of manual :hellyeah:

Your going to have clearance issues with your AN fittings on the sending unit, I was BARELY able to use a single 90* russell fitting on mine... and the fuel access panel didnt fit so I had to modify it a little bit to help it half-ass fit lol.I seen someone on here that tried to find more...

^^ That way will work too but is alot harder to keep the converter into the trans where is is supposed to be.... if the motor and trans are out of the car, unbolt them and unbolt the converter from the motor. Then install ## trans by itself. Next put the converter in and then finally drop the...

^^ its actually 3 steps inwards, not two. I just installed and indexed my converter this last weekend.The easiest way for me with my auto's is to put the trans in first by itself, the install and index the converter 3 steps inward (if you look inside the trans pump seal where the converter...
