  1. After restarting the car when warm, idle is crap.

    Hey, I am not 100% sure but my DSM had the same problem with the warm temps. It turned out to be my main relay that needed replacing. I narrowed it down by changing my fuel pump, using fuel injector cleaner and intercooler cleaner. Though, when I cleaned my intercooler, it was smoother overall...
  2. SAFC I Wiring diagram

    I think that link I posted was more than enough infomration. I was just in a rush when I started splicing the wrong wires. Have a glance at it and you'll probably notice how good it really is, though don't take my word for it. That is the only thing I recall using when I first got my SAFC. You...
  3. Is it nessecery to check for a boost leak it you hit full boost on your gauge?

    Is this regarding to an aftermarket boost gauge or your stock one? If its the stock one, it isn't reading very accurately. Besides, it wouldn't hurt to check for leaks before they happen.
  4. Some Night Time Shots Of My 1st Gen

    I bet some day shots would do that DSM justice. The night shots having a black car just don't work out too well for you.
  5. dejon tools MBC or turbo xs MBC

    My turbo XS manual boost controller did the exact same thing. Though it never had an effect on performance so it was fine in my case. It did exactly what it was suppose to do but it cost a bit more than a Joe MBC.
  6. 14B on a 2G (worth it?)

    Besides, the 2g turbo manifold has bigger exhaust ports and will flow more than a 1g turbo manifold. Not to mention they are stronger and do not leak much like the 1gs overtime. The 14b turbo is the best bang for your buck and feels much better than the T-25 turbo because its powerband is much...
  7. 93 Talon TSI FWD auto??

    Very true, the 13g turbo that I had on my DSM went to a 3000GT owner for $110 shipped. Not to mention how many 1g DSMers are willing to look for interior pieces. For that price, I would pick it up and sell stuff to the Lasers, they seem to be lacking everything on their cars. As in the turbo...
  8. SAFC I Wiring diagram

    http://www.plymouthlaser.com/safc.htm good luck on the install. Took me about 2 hours my first install because I decied to splice the wrong wires. LOL!
  9. is this a good turbo?

    You should probably look for a turbo manifold that would mate this turbo first. And stated ealier, ebay sells crap for turbos; don't bother walking down that road.
  10. ABS good or bad

    I think it really depends on what kind of help you want stopping your car. It will keep you from skidding in a straight line. It pumps the brake pedal if you slam on it. It has saved my butt a couple times from simple accidents on ice, but I don't like ABS. In my dads Camry, I think its a bit...
  11. Hole in #4 piston??

    Sure it would still be usable. I didn't say that it was a total piece of crap after something like that. I just wanted to say that for the price of a 4G63 today, its probably cheaper and less work to get one and build it up rather than a n/a and swap all the turbo parts over to it. But its up to...
  12. safc settings

    Don't go overboard with throwing settings up and down. Every single car is different and overtime the wrong settings could be unhealty for your car. I would leave it alone until I get it tuned by someone who knows what their doing. Make sure you intialize it before you start playing with it.
  13. Name this motor

    So is it a 1.8 ltr in the eclipse parts car or a 2.0ltr? I recall seeing a few 4g63 motors in hyandia, but never a Hyandia motor in a Eclipse. I think a few pictures would get you farther in this mystery.
  14. Hole in #4 piston??

    I think if a piston has a hole, your better off picking up a better condition 4G63. I would steer clear of something that has been hit with a problem such as that. Swapping in a turbo motor into a car that used to be turbocharged is so much less of a headache. Though I recall a thread about n/a...
  15. Better fuel economy?

    I am sure that having those mods wouldn't cut your gas milage by that much. I had about the same modifications and my gas economy went down just about 10 miles due to me being so much boost happier. Have you changed your plugs and wires out recently? If not, you should have a look and make sure...
  16. esi turbo kit vs. tsi FWD

    I'm with you on that, even though it is a Neon R/T motor it still could have made power. There are quite a few of fellow DSM tuners that are using that turbo kit. If you search I'm sure you could get some feedback from people who actually have experience with the kit. I recall seeing a few that...
  17. How much did you pay for your DSM?

    I purchased my old TSI AWD for $1800 and spent over $1000 on fixing it, well before I had to sell it to buy something that ran. I'm in the market again for one, locally seems to be a bit scarse at the moment.
  18. More power at 12 psi than 15 psi, why?

    I am assuming that you have an aftermarekt boost gauge, so the first thing the came to mind was a leaking BOV. Is there any smoke blowing out of the exhaust that isn't suppose to be there? Like is the turbo in ok condition because it seems that it doesn't make power over 15psi, meaning you could...
  19. Trader is back [No, not DSM Trader.]

    I guess this will have to do.
  20. Hp gain?

    If you do end up buying a SAFC, be sure to have a few mods including your current mods. It will net you at least 5 horsepower with tuning. Tuning does get expensive, but every little bit helps since your n/a.
  21. Everyone in Ohio, Lets get together!

    Cool, Akron people are starting to show up during the winter time. I guess it can't be all that bad, get that picture and share with the local DSMers.
  22. Turbo Kit??

    Try not to think of having an automatic gives you a disadvantage. It has it's advantages as well, much like never letting off the gas to shift. That is a problem with a manual, plus if you had AWD, it's awsome leaving with 15psi+ off the line. I know, I used to do it!
  23. Turbo Kit??

    I'm not 100% postive but I recall a Star turbokit that they had for your motor.
  24. Just Bought A 1997 EclipsE Gst

    This site does have a classificed section that has been very helpful to me. There used to be a super dealer site called dsmtrader, but it was shut down due to too many scammers. You could try www.dsmtalk.com, that site has a great amount of information as well, also a classified section.You...
  25. 14b on integra gsr with jdm b18c?

    Thanks for the links, I have never seen such a powerband like that on a GS-R. Though, I was kind of thinking, the first set-up on that dyno blew, so I'm guessing not everyone could just slap on that kit, with minor mods and BAM 300HP+. Oh well, DSM love goes out to ya :dsm: :talon: :laser...
  26. SBR 1G Automatic Turbo Upgrade Kit in a 5 Speed????

    Yeah, I meant the coolant line on the turbo will need to be upgraded to a 14b one. I agree that this kit should work out for you then. The turbo will be a simple swap, I've done it too many times to remember. First time took about 6 hours (first time without a manual), afterwords it cut down by...
  27. 14b on integra gsr with jdm b18c?

    Turbonetics T3/T40E Stage III 63 trim, its from a drag turbo kit.
  28. Just Bought A 1997 EclipsE Gst

    Nice set of rims came with the car, I think they look good. Free mods is a must as is a T-28 later on down the road when push comes to shove on the highway. Remember to build a ton of boost off the line for them races from a dig, the advantage of an automatic! :thumb:
  29. Exaust Manifold Leak? And What It Effects?

    I believe you will also recieve black smoke on your motor. When I figured out my exhaust manifold had a leak, I got it fixed right away. Makes the motor look black, while the rest of the head is clean looking.
  30. 14b on integra gsr with jdm b18c?

    I don't know about that...Basically because the T3/T04E 57 trim will take a good deal of mods to get 300HP plus. I have that exact kit but with a larger .63 trim. My kit hasn't taken my H22 up there yet. The previous owner of my turbo kit only made 283HP at 9psi. Just a little information, I...
  31. SBR 1G Automatic Turbo Upgrade Kit in a 5 Speed????

    I can assure you that the manifold and turbo will bolt up since you have a 5-speed. Though I don't understand why the upgrade kit would include that turbo and manifold. The banjo bolt on the TD04-13g turbo is smaller and will not fit the TD05-16g Slow Boy Racing turbo. I had a TD05-16g turbo...
  32. new to DSM's and have a few ?'s

    My guess is that you just label everything as you unplug it. It will make the swap 100 times easier this way. You could also have a local DSMer at the swap and he'd just simply give you a look at his car everytime you needed a reference. That is what I did when I helped swap a camry motor.
  33. building a 6 block help

    I think if you mean what you say, I am sure that building a 7-bolt motor would be cheaper. You stated you wanted to go cheap so thats my input into it. Otherwise, fixing up a 6-bolt will probably cost a ton more since they are a bit less common than the 7-bolt motors.
  34. 14b on integra gsr with jdm b18c?

    Right off the back, I can tell you that the 14b turbo at 6psi is useless. First off all though, find a manifold that could actually bolt onto his GS-R motor. That is a start, after that has been solved, finding a t3/t4 turbo would benefit much more than a 14b turbo. A 14b turbo just doesn't cut...
  35. flip-up lights conversion

    You can disconnect your headlight motors so they don't come up anymore. That way your lights will shine through the cover. I found this to give bad light, but I ordered a set off ebay and had an HID kit running through it. Worked out til my DSM died.
  36. Oil gauge and light switch wierd

    My guess is that one of the previous owners had a problem with the light flicking on and off. Instead of fixing the annoying flashing light, he just cut the wiring so that the problem wouldn't be seen. That's my guess since I have never heard of such a modification on a DSM.
  37. got the new beast home !!

    You have my vote, looks to be a beast for sure.
  38. 16v dohc Turbo side emblem

    Hey, that one looks damn nice. DIY rocks!
  39. Megan Racing: Updated AWD Downpipe and Catback! (3in.) Opinions?

    Hum, doesn't look bad...just looked like a bit more work than was needed.
  40. Hehe AWD TURBO NOW

    Am i the only one that is jealous???
  41. 13g Boost

    Hey, I used to have a 91 TSI AWD with the same turbo and ran 15psi perfectly fine with 100k. I never had a problem at all with that setting.
  42. Boost Gauge Question

    Let's see, I wish I knew what that boost gauge looked like. If there is a bulb screw at the back, I am sure that you can just stick a screw driver in there and fiddle around a little bit and it would go back to the original settings. I had the same problem with my spearco boost gauge and it...
  43. My new 99 GSX my 3rd GSX

    Hey man, stop hogging all of the GSX's save some for some of use when we could actually afford one. Looks really nice!
  44. 96 tsi awd and you said i couldn't get a 2g ...

    Did anyone else notice how fast he switched his car in his sig? LOL, good find man.
  45. I hate my cat, i should have called the fire dept.

    Don't they land on their feet anyways??? *shake shake shake* :thumb:
  46. I just saw Sin City... F'in Awsome

    Yeah, I really like that line...it made sense to me after the movie though. I didn't get it when I fiirst heard it, but kind of makes sense after reading that line and watching it two times.
  47. forums are ruined by people like this!!!

    Accord to that first post...I think someone forgot to log off their user name...LOL!
  48. DSM miles

    I can't you said that about the WS6...LOL, you of all people on here I would think would admire the WS6. I for one love the look of that car, off subject but still thought it was funny reading that first paragraph.
  49. HIN...The reason I went.

    I hope it wasn't for all of those X's...LOL, J/p! Pictures don't work for me.
  50. I just saw Sin City... F'in Awsome

    Yeah, saw it this afternoon and the whole movie was badass. Is there anyone who followed up on Sin City before this movie?
