Man you have so much that needs done to that thing. The method of running between the hood and boost gauge is unnecessary just put pressure threw the piping and listen for leaks, you don't need but 20 or so lbs of pressure not 90 and you will be amazed where leaks will come from.And get a good...
For the first 100 miles take it easy but try not to do any highway driving, keeping the rpm's at a constant speed is the worst thing for a new motor. Your trying to break the rings in right, after the first 100 miles drive it like you would any other time and you will be fine. Ive done many many...
If that guy a page or so back is still looking for a Holset setup here is mine I am doing away with. And I can answer any questions you have, made 418whp and 389ft/lbsMessage - DSM Classifieds
looks like is sucked something into the cylinder from the intake, look at the top right of the wall and the top right of the piston....def. something foreign
I would still start with 5 and go from there, keep a close eye on that knock reading.Boost creep for the most part will because of a unported o2 housing or because your wastegate flapper is too small, not because the efficiency of the turbo isn't good at the boost your running.Why even...
Make sure to do a new timing belt while your at it, you only get the lumpy idle if your idle sucks basically. If you keep it where it needs to be it idles normal...however I kept my low to be a ricer i guess :sneaky:
Search for static timing I really can't explain it well enough honestly for it to make sence to anyone but me.Also for everyone else here is a 8 second video of the car at idle with the Holset.<object width="425" height="350"> <param name="movie"...
Check engine light?Where does the sound come from? You can always take the valve cover off like the other guy said and look. But I doubt thats going to be it, the one time ive seen one pop off was my buddies convertable got hit by a deer in the front and somehow it knocked two off and it make...
Alright as basically everyone stated these things have no bottom end and all top. Install is pretty easy however if you have changed the deck height by either machining the head or block or using a different headgasket I highly suggest a set of adjustable cam gears to set your static timing...
Went to the dyno today 417hp and 398 ftlbs at 27psi. Mods are in profile, I had about 5 counts of knock and I didn't let off because mainly I don't care if the motor blows. It was running about 10.7:1 afr with moderate amount of timing. So I honestly think at that boost level I need to put some...
I just installed a set in my car last night, gotta finish putting the timing cover back on.They have already drilled and tapped the hole for us 2g guys with the CAS. and they went in like cake.Ill nab a video and the dyno today and post it later tonight.
search my good man, infact one of the best deals ive seen in a while is....guess what on the front page.http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/vendor-announcements/278331-1g-front-mount-intercooler-kits-sale-459-shipped.html
Alright then check this out, its a different type of blow of valve but is working off the same principle and locationhttp://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/turbo-system-tech/182340-rfl-recirculating-i-did-pics.html
Advance Auto Parts A/F gauge....seriously man dump the thing, its not worth anything. And for anyone on here trying to make it worth something you can't.Honestly throw it out and search for a Wideband o2 you will be much better off
First I would highly suggest a wideband.Second the way I always tuned a SAFC on Low was to park the car, and free rev the motor to the certain RPM designations you have set. While doing that adjusting your SAFC for the proper A/F ration that you want. Then while driving you can tweak it to get...
no with the front end cambered in as much as it is, especially with those wheels makes it look goofy. You need to correct the camber anyway if you care at all about those tires
stock boost?all you have to do for that is run a vacuum line from a source to the wastegate and you have stock boost. im lost so you guys are on your own for this one
ACT FTLAsk them what the step height was, if there a good company they should note it. And then ask them to show you how they measured itRead belowRRE's Clutch And Flywheel Tech InfoYou should def. try adjusting it in to make sure you are completely engaging the pressure plate to the...
CEL's?Ok i tried hard to understand your mods list, but it was just a ramble of parts that dont seem to go together. What kind of T3 turbo? Injectors? Fuel Control?Needs alot of updating before anyone can help
Don't change the alternator until its dead, when you see the price you will see why.Timing belt
Balance Shaft Belt
OEM Water PumpMake sure you put just a little vasoline on that water pipe o-ring to make sure it slides over and doesn't tear
The megan for a GST is garbage....remember Megan was the first ebay company and they are hardly close to top end.They use extremely thin metal, so thin when i went to drill a hole for a 02 bung it wrinkled the metal around it, and i had to hammer it back down and put a disgusting weld on it...
What??The cams will be out regardless and every valve will be close from the spring still being on there. And Im pretty sure you couldn't turn the motor over with the cams out while removing the springs.
Wow I had totally forgot they made those, thats makes me think a little about doing valve springs while i have the cams out.Anyone else have some feedback on this?
Alright as much as I hate to do this I absolutely cannot get the car to fire.It ran fine prior to me pulling in the garage, was supposed to be a quick fuel injector swap with a set of 680s. They ended up not having good seals and ordered some from PTE. So I swap my old injectors back in and...
