Ive seen write ups on how to check the manuels but nothing on an auto.since ive had the car I always have to press the brake extra hard to put the thing in park and pull my key out, and on occasion I am getting a ticking noise, started out in the morning but now it is there more often even...
I mean really? Big power with no lag? Isn't it worth the try? When i look at the guys on the mustang cobra boards with the kenne belle upgrades running 24 lbs and having 700 lbs tq available at 2k, I think wow if only I could have half of that in my all wheel drive dsm it would be so fuggin...
When I back out of a parking space, then start moving forward, there is a noise coming from the rear end that I can feal through out the car. Was wondering if it was not just the lsd or if I have bigger problems
My car runs perfectly and always has (could get better milage) but I was just wondering what you guys think?
From reading car reports from consumer reports and msn they give the eclipse a 5 out of 5 on over all reliability. Here you can agree with or disagree with there high dollar test...
Ive been running the ebay manuel boost controller for a couple weeks now and ive not been too happy with it. I didn't really notice any gains from it, and there is no real difference from when the screw is all the way in or all the way out.Tonight I decided to do some road testing to see...
I have seen gauges from 9 bucks to 300 bucks. Good lord what the hell? Can anyone direct me towards a decent set of gauges, at a good price? Thanks a mill,chris

I don't think I was clear earlier. He already has his ideas, but like you, I found them to benot the most logical. I offered to look into a big block turbo setup, hoping my participation might earn me a few trips down the track.I am trying to explain that n/a he will run into a wall, and...
What are you talking about? You don't think 1000hp is attainable? He has the car half way there, and enough bank account to get it the rest of the way. Where is the problem oh wise boostedinaz? :rolleyes:
I will try to answer the pertinant ones for yaengine hasn't been built yet. He had a 350 all lined up, some thing happened between him and the builder and now he is back to square one, with a bunk 350 (I am not sure of all the details on this one)It is definately pump, he want's...
Semms to be pretty open about the forum description "engine performance" but if enough people feel the same way I guess I will leave.As far as twin turbo's go, whaddya guys think about 2 gt35r's? I think it would be sick.any other ideas, or should i scrap this thread and look on a...
aight, heres a few pics, more upon request if needed.......http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v295/sevenonefour/DSCF0213.jpghttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v295/sevenonefour/DSCF0215.jpghttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v295/sevenonefour/DSCF0217.jpg...
This is for a friend, he is building one sick ass buick special, and asked me to ask you guys if you had any suggestions for turbo setup's for power this size.I guess since it is a v8 we are looking for a sequential setup to lay down well over 1000 hp. As soon as I bring my digi cam...
from the brief lesson i learned in this thread on reading maps, it seems this turbo has a broader island in the power range I'm looking for. At 20 psi it turns out 30 - 55 lbs/min within the 70 percent efficiency range. Not as overall efficient as the gt30r, but it seems the 30r will be just...
If you want to answer one one day and another on another day that is fine with me.That way I don't get all cluster####edWich ever ones you guys feel are most pertinant.
I just read over the article swiftkid posted, and that was not treally the one I read before, that one was much simpler.I have more questions now though......First one is basic, what is surge and how do I tell weather i am within or outside of the surge limitSecond, how is...
Well, I am joining the airforce, I am getting a nice signing bonus, as well as once I return from boot camp, I will have some decent cash saved up. I don't leave for boot for another few months, so ive got time to figure out what exactly it is that I want.I don't mean to be repetative...
DSM, I didn't mean that in a combatative manner, just trying to make a point. I realize tuning is an issue, and once I get all my componentry sorted out, I will get to that part of it. I'm just tryin to figure out a bit about how turbo's work. Ive heard people say "X turbo works better on...
Ive read that article a dozen times, just can't wrap my head around it for some reason. My below average mathmatical abilities leave me with a head ache every time I try to read that thing.
I dunno, few bolt on's maybe.exhaust

chipNot looking for any miracles, I know what the z06 is capable of. As long as I can hold my own on the highway I will be more than happy.
If I had to give you an idea, I would like to be able to keep up game with the factory/lightly modded z06's from a roll..........destroy em from a stand still.
As much as the car is willing to run. But let's say 20 for all practical purposes.and power, as much as the car will make at 20 psi. I'm not trying to put this car together to suite a number. I just want every thing to work the best it canI try and investigate each component of the...
I'm sorry if this is asking a stupid question, in fact I'm sorry if some people think this is a stupid thread, but I really don't understand charts at all.Could you explain to me in what sense is a turbo more or less "efficient"?And if this question is just too vauge, again I apologize
I personally want a street trimmed car, hence the fascination.What? Are you gonna race for pinks on who has the fastest timeslip from last week end? :laugh:j/k :D
of these 2 maps, wich one would perform the best on pump gas. I will eventually be going with a 2.3 or a 2.4, I have been looking at these 2 turbo's for a while now. Just wondering wich one will deliver the most punishing top end on pump?. Wisemen, any ideas?
I was reading on tire rack that the more positive camber the better, that it helps high speed stability as well as understeer. They also mentioned on some front wheel cars the caster is not adjustable, just to be certain we can definatly adjust the caster on our carsP.S. I would never...
I have a 96 smilie face, thing rubs on every thing from drive ways to dips and speed bumps, at stock height! :eek:I was just wondering if any one has trimmed the bottom of the bumber to gain some ground clearance? If I lowered it enough it would probly look normal, can some one bust a...
there fine. But i don't think they are any better than the cheaper oval onesI have a set of the oval ones and they are pretty solid, they helped pretty good too
I was actually waitin for you to find this thread, lol :thumb:I remembered readin your profile some time back and discussin the drivability of your 50 with you,good deal
I guess I am just trying to piss people off, they should really not let people like me on the boards, oh wait thats right, I'm not. Your just trying to be a dick, maybe it is you that should stop. I'm not attempting any thing, you can't just say stop, who the #### are you? Are you a wiseman...
