  2. Will a 90 tranny fit a 92

    If you have a early 92 AWD 5 speed, check trans id numbers. You should have the HD 3/4 gear set. It is the best of the stock transmissions. rebuild it.
  3. Help- 0 compression on all 4cyl after turbo/fmic swap

    Here is my guess. Air must come through intake manifold to be compressed. Could something be in the intercooler piping blocking airflow?

    You must use the cam caps that came with the head, you have installed on the engine.
  5. Nippon pistons

  8. Timing tensioner, water pump noise? VIDEO

    Look on the bottom surface of the tensoner pulley assembly arm. Look for a small indentation from the arm bouncing on the hydralic tensioner pin. I had one get weak at 30,000 miles. The belt causes a whipping effect at 2500 RPMs. You can see the belt slack bounce between the cam gears as engine...

  10. My Terrible Experience With Wiseco

    I have a Wiseco standard bore piston sitting on the garage shelf. It has the skirt broke out of it to the oil ring. Hair line cracks on both sides. EVO3 set at stock boost level 12 lbs. That was another rebuild I did not enjoy. But I did learn not to use them again.

  13. EVO2 3rd and 4th gear set

    Are the Evo2 3,4, single syncro gear sets, as strong as the EVO3 double syncro gear sets? I have seen that the ratios are the same, are the gears as strong? I want the EVO3 gearbox with single syncros in my 92 trans. I dont drag race, just like to have the close 1 to 4 ratio with a tall 5th gear.
  14. car wont go over 3k rpm and backfires

    Answer to your question. Identify my camshafts. In Comp Cam catalog page 60, 100-000-8E is exhaust cam. 100-000-8I is the intake cam. Just looked up 8737, that grind id# is for a 101-200 intake cam. The cat# is XE259HR. The cams are 272 spec. 411 lift on intake, and 395 lift on exhaust

    Can the A/C temp sensor be eliminated ? I have removed the a/c from my car. The ECM temp sensor is still hooked up, the A/C sensor is broken.
  17. Fans on with ignition, possible with DSMLink?

    On my 92 TSI, I have removed air cond condensor and pump. Just push in air conditioner button on dash, fans come on. If yu still have air cond system, just unplug Compressor pump, and push button. I installed new Radiator, and put in sheet metal around FMIC to seal sides and bottom of radiator...
  18. Hmmm, Big 16g or Big T-28 for my first turbo upgrade.

  22. 20G-6SL2 Street/Strip Turbocharger

    Speed cost money, how fast do you want to go?
  23. DSMLINK Questions!!! DSMLINK USERS CLICK HERE!!!

    From the ECM Wiki: 2G timing in a 1G. Note that DSMLink timing adjustments are active all the time, not just at wide open throttle. I use factory timing settings till 3500 rpm, then drop them lower as boost rises. This helps the fuel mileage stay up to 30 mpg.
  24. Timming belt deflection? Need help asap!

    How about contacting BLE Engineering. Nothing better than talking to the manufacturer.
  25. timming belt install

    I just did a timing belt job last week. All information is explained in the #3 post on the pictorial for installing timing belt. Camshaft dowel pins at 12 oclock, the timing marks are in the center. Outside marks will not line up through center with straight edge. Please take time and go through...

    Thats the kit on my Talon. 10,000 miles on parts, and still golng. All Mitsubishi OEM factory parts. This is second set from Slowboy, I change belt kits every 50,000 miles. I use a 60 inch pound beam type torque wrench to set belt tension. Set gap at .156 with drill bit. Great timing belt...
  27. Priming oil pump

    Yu guys on Turners are great at pics and explaination of how to do things. There should be a sticky on priming the engine. I also do the drill on the oil pump method. Primes block and turbocharger. Keep up the good work. Ralph
  28. Brian Crower 272 Combo

    I did not notice a loss of low end torque, with the Comp 200 camshafts. With DSM Link my timing is not changed until 4000 RPM. Then it drops a little to keep knock in check. Boost is 21 PSI.

  30. Resolved 420A camshafts for 96 Avenger?

    Thanks for the reply. Are the 431-0010 cams direct replacement? Or do I have to change springs and retainers? Ralph
  31. Resolved 420A camshafts for 96 Avenger?

    I was given a 1996 Avenger with a 2.0 liter 4 cyl. Oil pump failed and engine is being rebuilt. Exhaust side of head is toward the radiator. Which Crane cam set, 180-0010 or 431-0010 are to be used in this engine? Does any other cam match the specs for Crane? I found 431-0010 in the Mitsi...

  34. clutch question

    We just removed a SBR 3500 clutch disk this morning, out of a stock 91 Talon TSi. Clutch had 10,000 miles on it, clutch disk went into the trash barrel. This is another of the early Comp Clutch disasters. Spring falling out, and center hub had the spline teeth almost stripped out. Took the...
  35. dsmlink with gm maf

    Mitsubishigraveyard.com I bought the 2G sensor and plug for $65.00 in june of 05. I have been told that a 2G sensor will flow enough air for a EVO 16.

  38. Shavings in oil pan

    You have to find the source of the metal shavings. A spun main bearing is bad news. A spun rod bearing is fixable. Replace crankshaft, or turn down crankshaft journals. Replace connecting rods. Going 20 over on the pistons will save wall thickness for another rebuild. There is a balance shaft...
  39. Shavings in oil pan

    I did not go into details. New pistons 20 over, will be tanked. The short block is being done by Cook Brothers in Cumberland Md.
  40. Shavings in oil pan

    I have a 1991 Talon TSI with similar problem. Found the front balance shaft bearing chewed up. Now the engine is coming out to rebuild the bottom end without balance shaft. Will balance the crank, rods, pistons, and flywheel. 146,000 miles on engine, its time for the rebuild.
  41. SBR Cast Manifold

    Just stopped in for look. You are correct I have the early verson. Was not aware of the new and inproved verson. It looks like another SBR winner.
  42. SBR Cast Manifold

    I have one on my 92 TSI. Been on over a year now, no problems with it yet. I had to gasket match it to the head, took about 2 hours with die grinder. Had to grind it in a few spots, it has a thick flange on it. Slowboy ported the turbo side to 7cm, and supplied the turbo SS gasket. I have a Evo...
  43. ECMlink Will a EPROM ECU from a AWD car work for my FWD?

  46. Thermostat - lower or higher

    It could be a bad thermostat. I replaced a 180 degree with a 160 degree stat. Set the coolant offset at 20 on the DSMlink, ECU thinks the 180 is still there. No problems with setup. thermostat is a failsafe style. Fails open.
  47. 215/55 or 215/50 tires??

    I have a set of Cooper Zeon ZPT directional tread tires. Tire size is 225/50R16. These tires are great at handling, and the ride is not bad. Will put them on again when these wear out. UTQG is 380 AA
  48. SBR 3500 Wont Disengage

    I installed a ACT 2600 in my 92 TSI and it would not release. I had to put in a longer slave rod, and bleed the the system of air. Used 1/2 a quart of fluid, before it came out clean and clear. That solved my problem, I now have plenty of adjustment in the clutch linkage. Getting ready to put a...
