  1. Can I turn up the boost with a gauge, an mbc and nothing else?

    yes you can, but before you go trying to turn up the boost and buy aftermarket parts, make sure that your cars maintenance is up to par. No need turning up the boost if your car isnt running right to begin with
  2. 1G How can you tell if your ECU is bad???

    Get another ecu and your problems will go away
  3. Big problem..Car runs BAD.. CEL's 13,14,21,25 Someone please HELP!!!

    I would just try replacing the caps first. It will only be like 2 or 3 bucks if you do it yourself. If it is still bad after that, then get a new one
  4. Rebuilding

    personally with your nt, I would spend money on a cam. Just rebuild the thing back with stock components. new rings and bearings, get the crank checked for wear. Nothing over the top if you want it to stay reliable
  5. 1G How can you tell if your ECU is bad???

    You can open it up and see if the caps are leaking. It will also have a fish smell to it.
  6. 2g mas adapter

  12. ARP Head Bolts... Replace???

    They are reusable.
  13. HP difference

    In 1g's motor for motor (no drivetrain loss) manuals have more power. The autos get weaker cams and a smaller turbo. In 2g's they both get the little t25 so motor for motor they are the same
  14. installed a boost gauge but not sure if I did it correctly

    if you are running stock boost, that is right
  15. Broke my bleeder valve stem... [Merged 8-7]

    I would try an ez out. If that doesnt work, just buy a new one. I wouldnt want to risk having metal shavings in my brake system
  16. Shifting into 2nd (or should I say 'grinding' into 2nd)

    syncromesh is just a certain type of tranny fluid. Drain out your old fluid and put this stuff in. It is sold at local automotive stores
  17. Shifting into 2nd (or should I say 'grinding' into 2nd)

    you may want to try some syncromesh as another bandaid. If its not too bad, then it will help.

  24. $10k in GSX or $10k down on 06 Evo MR?

    If you are having no problems with the gsx, I dont see a need to get rid of it. Just keep it and put some more money into it. No need to blow the full 10g's on the car though
  25. 1g nonturbo to turbo swap

    The swap is possible, but it tends to give people headaches with the driveability. You aer going tohave to swap the harness and mounts out of the car. Also need to put in the new computer of course. The guy that did it locally also said he had to swap out the dash display. It was definitely...

  31. Maybe buying a talon, need some help.

    To add, I would do a compression check as well to see what condition the motor is in. Like thesickness said, I would also ask when the timingbelt was last done. If the owner doesnt know/remember, I would go ahead and change it just to make sure it is in good shape.
  32. Amount of boost I can run with a small 16g?

    datalogger should have been your first step. I would think about getting it very soon. We can tell you all day what you need to run/should run, but the only real way to see how your car is handling the mods is to datalog it.
  33. new car question... talon tsi...

    Do a general check of everything on the car. Carfax? compression check? check the turbo over as well? Make sure everything on the car works the way it should. Do not be afraid to get on the car a bit when you test drive it.
  34. Can this cracked oil pan rim be welded?

    personally I wouldnt weld it
  35. Is a 1g n/t head the same as the 1g turbo head?

    THe first time I got pulled over I had just got my new talon. I was riding around with some friends and got stopped because the cop said he couldnt see my dealers tags. He ended up letting me go with a "warning". Accoriding to him the tag wasnt in the right place or something.
