I am long from the DSM world, but googled across this thread. I know Bangor is only for govt vehicle. Filled up our G-ride there last week, I only wish we could purchase from there! Then, I asked the base public gas station and they didn't even know what e85 is.Maybe one day we will...

167,000 miles, over 350hp daily, and 1.59 60's.... its seen better days. Ill drain the fluid tomarrow.

I just wanted to get some opinions on this.It all started at the track, I was shifting from 2nd to third, and it wouldn't catch, so I yanked it back to forth and coasted the rest for the way. After that, it was stuck in forth, all the way home, no matter where I tried to put the shifter...

I am not sure, but logically speaking, if there is a smaller amount of room in the cylinder, even on the exhuast stroke (which is identical to the compression, just with the valves open) then there would be more pressure forcing it out. Right? So does this mean that a higher comp piston make...

ok, yea, I was just reading it wrong.

So since there is a larger load on the engine, the turbo will spool faster on the street? Correct? You contridicted yourself. Or just worded it confusing.And I am a little concerned with spool, I might venture to a road racing track here and there.

My car is pretty light, nitrous is not a option, and I CAN drive. I pulled a 1.59 60ft on a 16G with all season tires.More about these 72lb/min turbos... I was looking a the fullrace t67, which they say is 75lb/min... but i dont think it is ball bearing. Does anyone know where a larger...

Also, I would like a second opinion on the spool, Does anyone have this turbo? 4000 just seems unrealistic. to good to be true.

My car is going to be a track car, driven on the street, but not my dd. So, I have pretty much all but decided to go with the 35R but, I was wondering with turbine A/R I should get. I did alot of research, but couldn't find much about what A/R's people were running. So, I wanted to know what...

1.59 60' Blew tranny in 3rd gear.1.63 60' 11.831@115 on 16gPatiently waiting

Its pretty much stripped. No bumper supports, no seats. Stock drivers seat. Nothing in the back, no ac.As for boost levels... Its supposed to be at 25psi, but, it wouldn't go past 22. I am not sure why yet, but I cant wait to get it all sorted out, and see what this little snail can...

This was my second to last run. On my last run, I had a 1.59 60', but I lost third gear, and the rest of the tranny:cry: It was still worth it to finally hit 11's.R/t.... 1.006 60'.... 1.630 330... 4.891 1/8... 7.559 MPH.. 91.51 1000. 9.870 1/4... 11.831 MPH. 115.03 :talon:

SENIOR WEEK!!!!! Thats when ill be there... hope to see some dsm's representing.

Ok, thanks for all of your help. I wouldn't have checked the plugs and wires for awhile. But, it turned out that one of my wires was arcing against the head.Thanks. You solved my gremlin from hell. Its always the easy stuff that gets you.:thumb: DSM Tuners.

I have had this problem since January, and have been reading other similar threads on this, but nothing seems to help my problem.What happens is: When I go WOT, and it gets to around 3200rpms, a spot where the turbo would normally spool, it starts to bog, and accelerates really slow. It...

*Goes outside and removes front tag*You guys are such a good influence :thumb:

Well, thanks for all of the replys, you guys have completely answered my questions. :thumb: I guess my next investment should be a datalogger.

NOSLO2PT0:You are the main reason I started this thread, thanks for all the help too, you definatly cleared up my question.I understand detonation and all, plus I am still running a SMIC. So, I guess that answers my questions... Ill get a EGT gauge and see whats up, just out of...

I understand the fact that my 16 cant hit them high boost levels, i just simply isnt big enough to push that much air. I just want to know how is it save to run a FP Green (larger) turbo at 25psi on street gas, but yet it isnt save to run my 16g at 25psi on street gas?

So, I was reading some threads here in the turbo section, and I was seeing that people are recommending bigger turbo's for pump gas applications. My question is: How is it that you can use pump gas on a FP Green@25 psi... but I have to use racegas for my 16g to safetly run 25 psi... Whats the...

So what is this cheat?

The SL500 has been doing this for years. :shhh: I guess the secret finally got let out to the domestic boys.

That is a nice freakin idea... Hilarious. :thumb: To a resourceful DSMer, who is probably raising money to fix his broken car.

You can always spot the true import tuner. For one, he's not in the crowd around the latest widebody RSX and he's not even interested whatsoever. You will notice his car has some scratches and never really is 100% clean because he just doesn't care what others think. He is in the hobby for...

I guess it would have been a streach to fit every car ever made onto one disc? Come' on guys, lets just pray for gt5... maby there will be better technology than the DVD.

I would buy one, I hope I have the money when they come out... and I hope it is big enough to support future upgrades :rolleyes: If its anywhere less than $500, its still a deal because you wont have to buy a catback. Plus you could LOOK 100% stock.

That sounds like a hell of a deal... that is fairly low milage, and a really low price. As long as the owner has kept up on maitenence, and the car drives fine, I would jump on that before someone else does.

Group- Jurassic 5 Genre- Hip Hop? Album- Power in NumbersThey are a lot like a hip hop version of the bestie boys. Just a group of MC's that flow. I maily listen to punk rock. But I just can't get enough of j5.

:laugh: :laugh:

I neeeeed that spot sooooo bad. But I cant find anywhere on that site that has any info. Come'on, I'm sporting one of your stickers :p

I would have to say the Galant vr4 crowd is smaller... and there is one of them.

You can get origonal parts... like lvl 5 turbo, and lvl 4 suspension.I hate how you cant use the Amuse s2k for the spyder class!! I paid 250,000 just for that :mad:

sorry, 16/7's

I was just wondering what is the widest tire I should get on my 1g TSi AWD. I am keeping the 16" rims... but plan on moving to 16" Rota's with a 42mm offset. I was just woundering whats the widest I should get without them rubbing or sticking out.

Damn... 21% I have won that Z twice. I keep repeating.

Read this VfaqI cant even stress how easy this is. Don't pay anyone to do this.

As long as you get it tuned the correctly. A datalogger would help with that.

My car ran 12.4 on the stock 14b.

Today is the end of Defiant's life as

Tuning, Tuning, Tuning. I though my problem was a boost leak. WRONG. Take it up to a dyno and let the profesionally's deal with it.

I have my 1g with 160,000 miles... running at 18psi daily, and 25psi on track day. No problems yet.

I have my 1g with 160,000 miles... running at 18psi daily, and 25psi on track day. No problems yet.

*subscribes to thread* I have a simailar problem, once I get to a spot (like 4000rpms) when the turbo would normally spool up, my car does what you are describing. I dont think it is fuel cut, because my car still accelerates... just really slow. But, if I just give it like 3/4 throttle, it...

I love pool!!! But, im only 17, and cant get into most places. :mad:

I could possible drop in. Specially if more Talons sign up.

Just like the title says... I think this is my problem, but I want to do it regardless.Thanks.

M3 snowbaord... i830... I am also getting some step in bindings. Nothing for the tolon :cry:

I am probable going to add a front mount, and a 3" mandrel bent exhaust. Hopefully I will run 11's consistantly. Maybe I will just buy a cutout.

So it sounds like i need to go subscibe to Turbo and Modified.
