I have one on my trans-am. They tell the truth on amp ratings from my experence. Cause i've pushed mine to the limit like crazy. Going on two years, no problems, and their support team is pretty crazy. If you die on the side of the road because of their alt.. it's free roadside assitance and...

I have a 1g DSM that has no boostleak. Never has.... I heard that is a insanely crazy/rare set-up

Alright, Look at numbers. I'm seeing that BOV around, brand new, for about $250.00. Ok, well a new MAFT is 199.99. And you can get the gm part cheap if you know where to look. (20 bucks) I see complete kits, UICP, MAFT, BOV, and GM sensor on ebay for 300-400. So really, you save yourself 100...

Sounds like a wire, after the swtich is grounded. You'll read power all day at the switch, and when you go to hit the switch, you'll still pick up power on the otherside of it, making it look like there is power. I'd guess somewhere, either inside your doors, or in the hatch itself, a wire is...

Left side of your steering wheel. There are three Button looking nobs, One on the Top may be a plug. The bottom one is for dimmer.

It's been a question lately, where everything is located, and I'll be doing some work on my car today and taking pictures of all the 1g wiring and it's locations. Can't do 2g cause I do not have access to one. The reason it gets hot is just the amount of current flowing through a wire. Could be...

Honestly I replaced mine. A bit over 200 bucks for a new axle and hub assembly. It wasn't worth, to me, the insane amount of hassle, then again, I couldn't even get the hub bolt off, had to cut through it

Alright, Start simple. Put that old fuse back in. Never upgrade to a larger fuse in hopes of a quick fix. It's a one way track, to frying wiring and or your ecu. Fuses are there for a reason, with ample amount of resistance there. Some electrical engineer put it there, with the intentions of you...

Is it an auto? Cause I think I read something about auto's shifting into granny mode or something like that. Where it allows you to drive, but nothing that would be to harsh on the tranny.But yes, best bet is take it to get scanned. And even if the CEL is off, it stores them, and you can see...

Edit*** I dont want to post in in here, check your Privates for a Link to the car Sidways

By fine I really dont know what your trying to say. I see your online, If you send me a PM within the next couple of minutes, give me your name and number, or i'll give you mine, i dont care either way, and i can talk you through whats going on.I think right now, things we are both trying to...

I know most people driving AWD's go act 2600. And FWD 2100's

How many miles are on the stock clutch. How was it driven. What a clutch can take day one, isn't what it's going to handle 100,000 miles down the road after 4k launches.My clutch went out, and it was the same exact thing that you are describing

Ok, for a test light just put it inline with the battery. So it'll look just like that picture, instead of the multimeter just from the batt term to the wire harness. Now, If it shows you have a draw, hook the system all back together, and fuse by fuse go through.The only thing, that I can...

So how many would be intrested in actually buying one, at cost plus shipping. I can get a discount on the parts i'd need if I order more then one. I can still do a write up for you do it yourselfers. But after more research, it's not going to be very hard at all.

update. Just got all the diagrams I need. Just waiting for my logger to come in, should have somthing by next week.

I actually just ordered one. I guess i can use my other car to mess around with power supplies and odbII sensors to see if I get a cable to pull power. I'm pretty sure, it wouldn't be that hard. I just need about two weeks to get it done, and then I can send you a how too, or a cable itself

For drivabilty sake, I'd stick to the 2600. I've heard both good and bad about both flywheels. Matter of opionion and chance. Both are good companies, so go with what you'd rather have.I know if you stuck with ACT it could negate any of "contact this manufactuer" down the road. I hate when...

Yes sir you are correct. One in the same. Silly :dsm: using the same parts on more then one car in a feeble attempt to make money :)http://www.stealth316.com/2-isc-iac.htm

lol, i was gonna say. Heat shrink, is really good for that stuff to. And not that expensive

http://www.pocketlogger.com/index.php?pid=plobdii:)

Please, Dont assume of the batt that it is any one thing like that. It could, in fact be the solenoid, instead of the brushes. Actually, by the symptoms, the solenoid seems like a more likely solution then the starter brushes, as for two days prior it was running perfect. As brushes go, you will...

Ok, Well I'll start with this. A fuse, is a check safe and a tool for two reasonsReason one, a tool... It shows you what path, your having problems with, Easy enoughTwo, it protects one system from screwing up another system, I cars this is very important, because you are really running...

Well, your looking at the right things, and the wrong things at the same time.When it pulses like that, it's usally not a voltage drop. It's a current drop. There is a bunch of threads on the subject.This is a different problem but almost the same check...

that little picture i drew up top, is to check for draw. If you've checked that, and there is no current being pulled while your car is off, it's a connection between your battery and alternator or a bad alternator.

320 horse, like 340 if i'm correct torque. They are truely some beastly cars. Biggest problem is getting that HP to the ground.stock they run like 13.5 rated. I've seen good drivers with a few mods break into 12's. Bad drivers run 14'sBut gas mileage sucks, and insurance not fun...

Perfect man, Your on the right track. just keep going :)

Yes, like anything else. Whoever had that car before, was "smart enough" to disconnect their maf, and vent their BOV I'm quite sure they never did a Leak test. Do it, and then go from there.

Well, sounds like you might be having some near future fun. I'm sure it could be other things, but most likely your TOB (Throw Out Bearing). How long ago did the guy have the clutch work done?

F body stangs.ws-6 trans amA SS Impala, but has to be done right (if the break, they are god awful to fix)But it will always stand you can have two of the three. Cheap Reliable and fast.But again, It's all relative to what you think fast is. And personally, fast isn't fast enough...

Exactly what Onster was saying. Your talking about running a Higher compression engine, on a turbo ecu thats in the laser now. It would have exactly the knock he's talking about and in the long run would reak havoc on your internals.NT rolling chassis for lasers can be had for 400-800...

Is it a stock clutch when you had your tranny rebuilt that you put back on. Or did you change to aftermarket?Is that it? or is there any excess vibration?One thing thats quick and easy, I've seen mess with people is your brakes. Somtimes while going forward, the little metal peice wont...

I dont mean to insult, but you aren't trying to vent your stock BOV. I've seen people try to do it, and have worse problems then that, and the same one.But yes, boost leak check first and formost, after that i'd check MAF

wow that sucks. Thank god I dont live where I need to smog my DSM. I'd never get to drive it.I really dont have an answer to fix the problems, but I do have on to how I used to get by smogging on my GM. It was a 20 dollar bill, all wrapped up in the testers hand, and he'd just sign off...

He's right man. If your looking for a long term car, that wont cost money to keep running, and is fast, a DSM isn't your best bet. I honestly, wouldn't go with any sort of forced induction system. They require a lot more upkeep as your talking pressurised air, and if one checksafe fails...

Ok, I'm at work, being as such I didn't have much time to throw this together. So I hope it helps, if not, I can walk you further through it this evening.I had to attach it. It's crappy because I can't really get to many websites from here at work. Stupid network secuirity.

go in, have the alternater PULLED and checked. Dont let some ass tell you he checked the current of it with it still hooked up. You can't do that.A pita troubleshoot, would be to take one of the standard 12V testers that you click to ground and touch a lead and it lights up. Ground it out...

ahh... i misread at first. I'm happy about that.I thought you were gonna say you crushed your kid for a traded 1g BOV. I was gonna say whoever gave you the BOV got ripped off

So I now understand it's purpose. Maybe this is a dumb question. Is it needed? and if it is, where do I run that line to? I'm at work, and my manuals are at home. I'd like to stop on the drive home and grab anything I may need to hook it up if it's necisarry

LOL, it will take a lot more then a few rusty parts to get me away from this damn thing. Every day I see my 1g sitting, I become more enthralled with the way it is, it's angles, the way it sits. I love you 2g guys, but there is just something about 1g that does it for me.the guitar, was an...

So, it's my turn to have everyone play their favorite game. Name this part.It was under my battery box. I'm rereplacing a few vac lines as I'm waiting for a new halfshaft to come in. This one had nothing coming out the front. I dont like when vac lines aren't there

Yeah, I used to be kind of a Pack Ratt. Extra part cars in the back, Extra guitar and computer stuff all over.Now it's like spring cleaning, This shit is worse then crack. I run around, looking for stuff to E-bay off for more cash to dump into the DSM.It really is drugs though, everyone...

whats the voltage on your alternator coming out as? Could be your not pumping enough amp, to charge your battery and run your system at the same time. Thus your battery isn't taking a very good charge as your driving around thus making it die prematurely.What kind of subs and amp. Is it a...

Yeah, I think in the already DSM owners, we have some frustrations that come out when you talk to us about maint.I have a 96 Trans Am in the back yard, It's a bit easier to work on, as for as how complicated things are, but not nearly as fun.One thing, I will say, that makes a...

What did they work on at the shop?Could be a bad/weak battery or a loose ground connection. I've seen crazier things, because of a rusted out ground, or a bad wire

Beat it, with our oil covered bloody fists....Seriously, The normal stuff, plus some trouble spots. Vfaq is a really good spot. If you just browse you can see a lot of what goes on.Clutches burn up like crazy (probably our fault), but really, it's about tuning. I'm finding you need...

So what the hell guys? Why do you all have to be such a supportive community?Really, I have a real life, like a job, and a wife and kid. Those things take time. But since you all started being all nice to me, all I think about is that hunk of scrap metal in my drive way and it's always...

yeah, I was already thinking about the blocks. If there is a decent one, I'm gonna snatch and work on a 2.3 stroker for it, while still having the orginal 2.0 in my car. That way I can drive and work.I'm really going to try and grab a lot of the things that the 1g accels at, BOV's things of...

yes turbos, but i have no idea their condition. I'm sure, being salvage and having sat, the turbo's are seized up... I'm gonna grab them anyways and see. I'll let you know

LOL... It's late, and I'm tired. I didn't even notice the 96. I'll keep an eye open
