Well don't know how it happened but just noticed my dash (radio, cluster, HVAC, shifter) and my parking lights went dead all the sudden. I know they were working two weeks back. I didn't installed anything or messed with anything except the intake in engine bay which should have no impact on it...

I have notice stange random hesitation/sputtering when boosting between 4-5K RPM's.. Kinda feels like light fuel cutting, then it goes away after 5.2K or so.I'm still on T-25 and currently and back on BCS for winter purposesMy mods are:3" cat back 1g BOV NKG plus Accel wires...

hey guys,i want to tint my headlights, but i want nice even shading and DO NOT want to use any kind of spray on crap. I know there are clear film protectors for headlights and i seen some yellow tint to imitate rally car look for sti's etc.Where can i get that stuff??? Do they come in...

somebody might know this since search revealed nothingAre the 2g AWD rear axle CV joint cups (the part that attaches to the hubs) same ones as the front CV cups on 2g's?I'm going to have to replace my rear wheel bearings soon as they are humming and i know i won't be able to get the...

so as long as it has p-trim turbine it will bolt right in correct? It doesn't have to be BEP CHRA necerssairly right?

Might be kinda dumb question but search revelaved nothing,Right now i got Bullseye V-trim T04B and i'm wondering what other center sections will fit on the exhaust housing?......i'm kinda hoping Garrette GT series would fit :sneaky:AFAIR the oulet is 3" :thumb:LMK

yeah i looked..... it looks like it COULD fit thru..... that's why asking since it's hard to tell for sure just by eyeing it....hope somebody has tried it already and posts here :D

well my wheel bearing it starting to hum real bad so i'd like to see if somebody has an answer

well what junkyard dave? lets go and molest it!!!:cool:i need my effn 7 bolt shortblock :beatentodeath:

hmmm this is interesting.I have no balance shafts and my oil pressure are 2 psi at idle and 30-40 psi at wot reading off from Summit Racing digital gauge w/ Summit oil pressure sender. Always thought i had issues with the gauge since the read out seemed low. I'm running Mighty Max oil...

haven't bothered to log the HP yet.... still messing around w/ the EBC...start boost, gain, etc...yes he had all the correct settings wheel size, profile, etc-wise

my buddies DSMlink said 195hp w/ 11:1 AFP on ported/clippsed big 16g, 550's, fmic, 2.5" pipes, full 3" exhaust, tial, suspension, etc......

hah and u actually put ## trust in the HP estimator eh?.......

yeah but you -personally have multiple turbo's surging on you......

poly mounts are nothing to be worried about

EVO III Throttle Body?WTF

well i know for a fact the "95-96" drawing is wrong...... 95-96 are 4123.....1g are 3214

firing order is the same on all 2g's AFAIK...... inverted or not inverted singal makes only little diff.

I'm guessing by no spark you mean on any cylinders.....soooo in that case:Check CAS....if it's dead u won't get any spark...located under the cam gearCheck Ignition power transistor.

hmmm i could swear the coil pack i got off of a 2GB had 4123 stamped on the base of it OMGand yes the CAS does have to be inverted just like on 1g swaps....

firing order is the same on all 2g's.....4123

look @ the 3rd post:thumb:

all turbos comp surge under certain conditions that are guided by thier comp maps, so no ## turbo isn't crap you just gotta take the necessary steps to move it off the surge limit. :thumb:

sorry i ment to say cheap MBCBut MBS stands for manual boost solenoid....the thing that controls the boost on our cars stock.BTW the bleeder valve suppose to be on the MBC:thumb:

while it's true that adjustable WG sets the boost level i don't really quite see how that's going to help him unless he's going to make the poor man's profec.....It doesn't matter if the WG is set to start bleeding off boost @ 1psi, if the MBC is set to psi @ which it comp surges....it will...

adjusting it won't solve your problem....the adjustable arms is only used to dial in the boost if you don't have MBC/EBC.What he ###### ment is hook up an air compressor to the WG and check to see the WG is functioning properly and is not sticking to anything.

your profile doesn't list much so possible fixes would be:-lighter spring BOV....or soften the adjustment screw -bigger IC pipes -get EBC and setup your boost gain -get dual stage mbc

well turn the car on and pop the hood and listen where the noise is coming from...ticking PS pump means it's low on fuild 99% of the time, squeeling means ## belts are loose.A/C isn't associated with the PS pump....alternator is tho. A/C has it's own pulley and belt. PS pump and Alty share a...

front 2g FWD & AWD struts are interchangable.....rear ones aren't:thumb:

what gear are you talking about?

not i'm saying what Mike said about V-trims being only good for low 300 whp and that evo is better is bunch of bull.....

I'm not in denial of anything..... my gsx use to have FP evo 16g....i upgraded to V-trim for a reason.While the 415whp SBR got w/ thier evo 16g is impressive.....95% of people running evo 16g's are producing nowhere near that much HP......

Yes but every shop and vendor has thier favorites and also thier grudges. Whether it's TRE and Fidanza flywheels or SBR and what they call "junky chinese knock-off pos" evo 16g GT.BTW the Bullseye turbo challenge is NOT bullseyes own testing.:sneaky: It's a catergory challenge they have...

well AFAIK compressor surge is cause by air flow back up when ther turbo sucks more air in then the motor is able to consume. The air backs up into the comp wheel.Adjusting the boost gain on an EBC should solve that problem.Blow thru setup w/ light bov spring also helps.

i'm talking about SBR pulls charts VS. bullseye challenge vids.....also i find it funny how in the SBR tubo comparisons the evo 16g outperformed almost all of the bigger turbos which flow more by some major horse power while 99% of the time it's always the other way around. Sounds to me...

thanks for that info :thumb: Tried it and i am getting pulse on #2.So now i know it's not electrical related thus far. I'm getting spark, i'm getting injector pulse and my injector resistance is fine so they should be spraying.So what do you guys think is next on the list.Could bad CAS...

o2 gasket is metal so u can reuse it ....just open it up with dremel to fit the larger dia o2.o2 housings are after turbos and before dowpipes.i would get new dp gasket tho since they are avaliable at ## local auto store.

yuor handle is either broken or the linkage got disconnected. Pop the inner panel and see which of the two you are dealing with:thumb:if the linkage got disconnected insert it back in and rotate the green/orange clip to snap it onto the linkage:thumb:

ok my DD (95 tsi) started running on 3 cylinders out of nowhere. Right before it started running on 3 cylinders i filled it up w/ 89 @ sunoco, but i highly doubt that the cause.When i pulled the old spark plugs 4,3, & 1 were the usual condition, #2 was pitch black.I have yet to do...

adjust the gain....Same day pulls? Same exact setup, not just same motor? same gas? same tune?Hub HP =! wheel HP

oh really now :toobad:http://www.bullseyepower.com/manny.php

hmmm if it doesn't sometimes go to forward gear or reverse you have an internal non-electrical problem.Even with the ECU and/or shift solenoids bad you should always have 3rd and reverse since that's the "limp mode".Either you are slipping or you have fluid pressurizing issue.

meh you have nothing to worry about.....we have knock sensors for a reason......i'm putting 87 or 89 in my 2g turbo DD

Define "high power"

Titan Motorsport

Well you missed my point. I'm getting at people who say "don't buy fidanza because......, buy........ instead"Yes of course it will be harder to launch and will need getting you to, but so will drving/launching heavy clutch w/ tight engagement travel yet people don't say "don't buy it, buy stock"

Alex,Are you on Xceed (SE MI sport compact forum)? If not you should register at www.xceedspeed.com to share your story since lately the forum has been sprawling with 2f2f kiddos that have a hard on for anything they see on the road and wanna race it.Maybe your story will do some good there.

Here is my $0.02.People who say fidanza flywheels are pain, bad for DD'ing, auto-x only are full of crap. :boring: My GSX in the profile is a street car and i drive it to work in Detroit Metro commute without a problem. I have driven several other DSMs with Fidanzas and those were no...
