    Rattle in engine bay when cold starting

    That's funny, my 97 GST made the same noise with the same conditions. I never figured it out. I changed the clutch, TOB, and the crank pulley. I think it still does it to this day, I sold it 3 years ago.Maybe check out the starter as Rick suggested.

    no high rpm power with gt30r

    TurboByGarrett.com - Turbo Tech103There is a perfect example in here for you. You need more boost after you calibrate your MAF.

    Need Help! Are these hooked up wrong?

    I don't remember what line it is off the top of my head... Just trace the lines back. One will go to the IM (this is the one you want), the other will go to the FPR.

    Need Help! Are these hooked up wrong?

    You might be pushing your injectors at that point. Get a logger and keep an eye on the IDC's.

    Need Help! Are these hooked up wrong?

    That compressor should do fine. You should only need to pressurize you car to about 15-20 psi, so have someone keep an eye on your boost gauge. After you move the boost gauge tap, fix the boost leaks (if any) and replace the BOV, see how the car runs. Don't forget to turn down the boost...

    Need Help! Are these hooked up wrong?

    ^ Ahh... You didn't mention that. Have you done a BLT to see how bad the BOV is leaking?
  11. forcefed4

    Need Help! Are these hooked up wrong?

    Fix your boost gauge first.Go to Welcome to Hallman Boost Controllers, click on files, then on "Pro series installation instructions" If it is hooked up like you say it is, it's correct.Move your boost gauge tap and go for another drive, see if anything changes.

    Need Help! Are these hooked up wrong?

    Compressor housing is a boost source...OP- check for boost leaks. Also hook up the wastegate directly up to the nipple on the comp. housing (no boost controller) and see what your boost does.Your boost gauge is in the wrong place. Tee it into the line that goes between the FPR solenoid...

    A pilar gauge pod problem

    Sometimes they come with these plastic push pins. You drill a hole through the pod and the pillar and just push them in. I wouldn't glue it, you might need to get it off later on. If you don't have the pins, you might just get some screws that won't stand out too much.

    A pilar gauge pod problem

    Yea, that's not a full pillar replacement. It's meant to go over your existing one.Quote from the auction: THE POD MOUNTS ON THE DRIVER SIDE A-PILLER. THIS POD MOLDED TO PERFECTLY BLEND IN WITH YOUR EXISTING PILLAR PANEL.

    Hmmmmm... I just noticed something. After your last pull when you are coasting, the WB still shows ~10-11:1. It should go full lean to like 18:1 until it hits your idle RPM. Your WB may be acting up.What does it show under idle?You also needs to adjust your TPS, it shows 2% when you...

    Get a gauge on there and verify base FP. I see you have a 6 bolt, any chance you have a 1g fuel rail with a 1g FPR on there?

    Ok, that's what boostest is showing. It's still running a little lean for everything zero'd out. The estimated AFR is showing 10:1 while your running ~11.1:1. You may still have a slight problem with your fuel pressure. Your fuel trims are a little on the positive side.What pump are you...

    top mount manifolds??

    No one makes a top mount for a Mitsu flange... it's not worth it.If you're putting on a 20g, why bother getting a new manifold? Use yours or get an FP manifold if yours is cracked too bad.

    OK, You need to do a couple of things here.1- Pull out your ECU and remove the 4 screws from the side. Look in the lower right corner (with the main connector on the top) and see if there is a chip there that says something like "2g DSMLink v2.5".2- If you have that chip YOU NEED TO GET...

    If you have the right tools and skinny arms, you can do it all from the top. That's what I did when I put my Prothanes in. Never even lifted the car.

    jdm type bov

    Don't buy it. Go find a used EVO8 or 9 BOV. It is a great stock replacement without having to get a flange adapter or new UICP with a 1g flange on it.

    e85 on stock engine

    Once you get bigger injectors and something to tune with, E85 is fun stuff. What's on your list?At least your not stuck with 91, my wife's Mazdaspeed hates the stuff... :cry:

    e85 on stock engine

    Yea, you might not want to do that unless you want to buy an engine...You need more fuel than the stock injectors can deliver. When you go WOT you will be VERY lean.

    New car with problems and mystery mods

    i just replaced the damn thing

    ^:confused:He's talking about the clutch, not the brakes.OP- master cylinder maybe? See if there is fluid leaking from the rubber boot where it comes into the car under the dash.
  43. forcefed4

    aem wide ban o2 fuel ratio help

    Depends on the load on the engine and the fuel your using. Under normal cruising and idle, the ECU should maintain ~14.7. Under WOT (91-93 octane) you want to aim somewhere between 11.0-11.5, depending on how your car likes it without knocking.

    Can you paint sparkplug wires??

    Summit Racing has a few brands. Search for "wire and hose sleeves" in part type. Depends on how much you want to spend. You might be able to get the right color wires for the cost of the wrap.
