thanks for the reply. Its only been sitting for about a month and a half.... replaced the coil packs even though the cars not throwing out any errors because when it fires up and dies it act similar to a burnt out coil pack. No dice.replaced the ECU with a spare, no dice. On a side note one...

So i replaced the CAS with a known working one. Nothing changed. Since i recalled that it was raining really hard one of the last days that i drove the car i thought maybe my GM MAF was damaged by water because my intake is so low to the ground so I replaced that, and still the same. Thought...

Hey there. So my problem is that I left the talon in the garage for a month and when i went to start it again it wouldnt run. She turns over and fires but wont stay running.Spark is fine, i replaced the fuel filter a few months ago, fuel pump relay is working. I heard it could be the Cam...

hey guys. Heres my deal...I decided to wash my engine bay, long story short, she dont run the same anymore. I didnt think cleaning out my engine bay would cause a sensor to fail but in anycase i could use a lil advise.I am getting error code 12 - air flow sensor and my SAFC and...

I think it looks crazy. I had planned on doing it later this year.

sorry...............leet. I'll give that one a thought next time.

Well, well, well. If we werent just graced with the all mighty Ken Bacon's presence.I understand you closed IRC's doors? Did you plan on notifying the people who had orders with you or did you just want to destroy their plans without any explanation?A reply would be appectiated, but...

you got a normal deal. :D

just to throw in my two cents. You could move the fan to the other side. You would need to lengthen the two connections to the rad fan somehow. Also if you ever wanted to get a good FMIC the idea would probably have to be altered a little bit again but whatever floats you boat, right?Not...

I am going to bring back this thread. I really want the GM MAF system set up to vent the BOV. Everything I know about Dejontool is great but I dont want to buy there FMIC if it's not top notch. Is it not a good core? Whats wrong with it? Is there any numbers to support it either way?And...

First off, its said on their site that they have been moving for a year. Second, I pleaded with Ken and Andy to just reply and let me know what the problem was. Whether they are busy or not there is something called custumer service.

He responded fast when it came to ordering but as for shipping, I am being treated like a tree hugging Canadian.The only US company that treated me very good so far was Dejon Tool. I am sick of dealing with this junk!

no, they were going to charge when the kit was shipped. So I didnt get ripped off but I am still pissed because I needed the FMIC to go to an event on Aug 24th and I clearly didnt get to go because they screwed me.

I was supposed to receive an FMIC kit from IRC at the start of August. It didn't show and both Ken and Andy are not replying to any e-mails, phone calls or other attemps to contact at this or any boards. I know of two other people that are not getting any replys aswell as me. Did the company...

Well, There are some freak cars made that are just plain faster than they were rated to be. But its not TOO uncommon to find those tipes of times in the states, just not here.

ya, I might add that around here a stock FWD TSi would run HIGH 15's at best. I ran 17's because compression was jucky with mass oil burn off. :cry: At least thats fixed now. And I never run anything special for tires.

When my 1st Gen Turbo FWD was stock it ran 17's on 87oct and no mods at all. Not even K&N filter.My best time now is 14.6@100MPH with 93oct. It would be better but I cant launch good at the track yet and its not tuned perfect so I will have to settle with that for now. But you can look at...

Kick ass job man!You gotta hate those 1.67 60' times hey? :rolleyes: Too bad my idea of a great start would be a 2.2 60'. hehehehe

11 seconds with only a few mods? :rolleyes: no LSD from factory, sorry. :p :D

Location also plays a big part. Nobody up here whould dream of times like that with those mods. It's just not possible.

Well, I know somthing isn't right with my tuning. I dont even think the injectors I bought are 625cc's like they are supposed to be. To keep fuel trims around 100% I need setting in the plus 15-25 range on the AFC. Low TH and Hi. I just dont have anyone here to help me out. :barf:And...

damn, thats fast for what you got. I need to finish my tuning and get rid of the rest of my knock! :laugh:Good job.

double post, never mind.

I just asked a stupid question..................never mind. :thumb:

It all depends on the driver. I have some internal engine work done aswell, so I dont think those mods alone will result in 110 for a FWD. But you will never know unless you go out and see.

I am running 18psi on a Big 16G. An AWD will not run 103MPH with just intake, exhaust, fuel pump and said turbo.If its got injectors, FMIC and other mods sure it will. FWD's are lighter and always end up with better MPH than AWD's do, and I am only running 100MPH.Granted, if I didnt...

-LSD - limited slip Diff. -Lower psi in front tires, raise psi in rear tires. 25/40 -Remove anything that isn't needed from the back half of the car. -Stronger shocks, or kits designed for FWD racers like the one from dejon tool. 3-400 dollars.These were all I could find, but I just...

Well is it a stock clutch? It may need replacing anyway. I know mine sure does.Also, when shifting into third, fouth and fifth I would worry too much about it. There isnt alot of torque there to jar on the clutch. If it slips it slips, there isnt too much you can do but get a higher...

sounds fine, whats the problem with that?

two things that took me by suprise (not allowing me to race) were the battery had to have a hold down bracket. Mine was busted off, so I fixed it. And you need to have the chutch in to start the car. I have a car starter so it was disconnected to start the car. Those were my problems.

ya, just as many 2g FWD as 1g's.

you need lubrication with the octane. Xylene straight will strip the gas in there of the lubricating agents.MMO is marvel mystery oil. It cleans and lubricates, but it is not sold here.

The thing is MMO is not sold in Canada anywhere anymore. People here just suggest using plain Automatic Tranny Fluid for lubrication. I would think it doesnt have the cleaning properties MMO does. What can be used in place of MMO?

:confused:

well, it sure does make it alot more clean cut if I dont have to worry about another liquid. Thanks. :thumb:

UPDATE!!!!I am bringing this topic back because with my newfound boost creep and no money to fix it by getting an external wastegate, I have decided I need more octane then 92 to support 20psi.So with 0.3gal of Toluene/Xylene for every 1gal of 92 pump gas you end up with octanes of...

The injectors are low impedance. I checked myself to be sure. The mid and high fuel trims are always within 10% of 100. It seems it doesn't matter what I do they are always good. The low trim is always at 140%. I know this is not good but I cant lower it. I think this is because of my...

This is pissing me off. Replacing the coil pack helped low RPM knock. The plug to Cyl. #4 was damaged and the spark was traveling to fuel rail. But anyway I still cant even run stock boost without topping 20 knock, anymore than that and it tops 43 counts. Its not that I am running rich...

okkkkkkkkkkkkk, well, I re-installed them. Aftermarket dont have the seal in the middle I was talking about. And it didnt fix anything anyway. :mad:Whatever, I will figure it out.

I dont even bother with looking at the o2 readings because I know they are way off. Its an 11 year old sensor that has been through alot of crap. I am going to replace it soon.I know this problem is not o2 related because for the most part everything was great up until last saturday when I...

Ok, I tried all your settings and they worked very well for a while. So I thought I would up the boost to 15 psi. I know its not much but it was at 11 and I thought "baby steps". Anyway, not only did it not hold and forced the knock past 43 but the car ran like crap from then on.I did...

Well, that sure is interesting. I would think that your low throttle settings are extremely rich. But I guess anything is worth a shot. Thanks for the numbers, I'll give em a try.

Before I was getting 1 or 2 knock around 20 sec apart at idle. Now its twice as often. And I never got knock in neutral reving before, now it spikes to 11 at righ revs.The seats looked fine. How would they look if they were not in good condition. Say, they were not in good shape, how...

I just replaced my stock injectors with my 625's. The car runs all the way down to -30% across the board on the AFC before it stalls but runs like junk unless its up around the -5% mark.Anyway I set it up I have crappy acceleration until 3k RPM. I mean like hardly moving till that point...

oh come on. Roger will never get that thing running again. :D:barf: <======= hehehehe, its funny.

Ya, I hope it doesnt cost them to much money. At 450 Km's since the rebuild, the engine is under warranty. Good news for me I guess. :confused: :)

His name is Roger. He is a fool! :laugh: kidding as always.Dont take to long with your install. I have to go there at 4:30. They need my car back to re-rebuild because the coolant and oil are mixing. :cry:Why dont the problems just end.

prodrag show car? The only car they have that I know of is a 88( or in the area) civic. Thats a 10 sec car.Marcin B. Has a 12.1 sec 1g. Looks like my car. :o :thumb:

He's prolly too blonde to get it. :shhh: :thumb:
