Sorry for the absence in the thread. When I first did this, I had a smell for maybe a week. I've never smelt anything ever again. The smell was faint too. I could easily drive with the windows up and AC on. As far as removing it. It's not coming off without a fight, but either is Dyno-mat...
Necromancer alert! lolJust following up on this a bit for people. I gutted my interior for new carpet and the peel'n'seal looks perfect still. No bubbles of any kind, no signs of adhesion loss, nothing! Mind you, I live in Michigan, so this car sees -0°f to 100°f+ through out the year...
Sorry to revive this thread, but I thought I would just give a quick update. Its been over 2 years since I've done my "dyno-matting" and I thought I'd post my findings after 2 years.I just upgraded the tweeters in my doors, so I had to pull the panels off. The Peel-n-Seal looks exactly the...
Being that my install is only 2 month old, I cant vouch for the longevity of P&S. I can however say that I found both people saying it lasted for years, and that it didn't sick very long. Judging by the way this stuff is stuck on there right now, I'd say its not going anywhere.
I just got the car back together this past week.The sound deadening properties are not everything I was hoping for. It definitely helped alot, but I guess I was hoping my $100 was going to give me a 740.i ride quality...lol The road noise from the doors is 100% gone. The cabin gets about...
Dynamat is about $80 for 20sq/ft. P&S is $15 for 12.5sq/ft. Its about 75% cheaper. To access anything in the door, you would only be able to access it through the holes in the door. You can easily take a razor blade and cut the holes out if you need too.
Posted this on WRXTuners because I now have a wrx... but I wont ever forget where my roots are. Figured all you guys would benefit from this too.Left is Peel and Seal. Right is Dynamat Extreme.So, I've searched the internet over and over... and I could not find anybody...
Ok, I got my 64bit vista driver now. I'll have to go try it out to find out if it works later. Unfortunately my car isnt at my house. I dont have an enclosed garage on my house and my parent's have a huge pole barn garage. I read a lot on the Megasquirt.info site under the Connection...
Well, I got everything installed and she's fired up and idling now. But I have a few problems, first off I cant get any communication between my PC and my MS2. I have my USB>Serial set to com1 with 115200 BPS and my FIFO settings to 1, there is no option to set these to 0 like I read we're...
Well, taking your advice Paul, I disconnected the included Voltage Regulator that my kit came with. It actually didnt change anything.There is 3 LEDs on the front of the MS unit. When I turn my key only the middle one (blue LED) flashes on and off really fast once. Anybody know what...
Since the AC and Powersteering share the same belt, you just gotta yank the pump/compressor and your all set. you can go even further and pull all the lines out too if you like, but its a pain in the ass without power steering. pull your belt off and drive around for a while so you can feel...
I got a Modern Performance 60mm TB on my car, when I put it on I had my intake manifold gasket matched and polished. Hands down the best N/A upgrade I ever did to my car. The kick in HP that I felt from that combination was amazing. If you do upgrade your TB, take the time/money to do it...
I'm having questions/issues with wiring my voltage regulator that came with my megasquirt kit.In the diagram they gave me(above) I didnt know how I keep my factory wiring that powers my ECU and my fuse box under the hood. I'm keeping my factory ECU to control my gauges and misc stuff...
Update: Just got an Aeromotive 1:1 and I'm looking for new injectors right now. I have another quick question tho. Seeing how MS controls everything, I see no reason to keep my FCD on my MAP sensor. I can remove that now right?
I'm looking for the best deal on a set of 550-650cc injectors for my 2gNT. Accel or RC would be cool, but I'm open to other brands as long as they have good reviews.Second question, should I replace my OEM Fuel Rail? I'm trying not to spend a fortune here cause I just got new seats and a...
I just bought These seats off eBay and I just wanted to give some feed back to the community about them.They are very nicely made and sturdy, the only problem with them is the size. I'm 6' tall and I have pretty wide shoulders. My shoulders dont let me sink into the seat. This makes...
I was going to get those ones... until I found out they aren't real Bride seats. These ones were only $260 shipped, but I guess I should have got those they looked really nice. Here is a pic of the driver installed, ignore the blurryness, camera phone pic.
I just finished my driver side bracket today, paint is drying. I'll post some pics of the driver installed tomorrow. I'm in the middle of my megasquirt install, so I kinda got my hands full with projects on the ol beast.not leather, their cloth with leather on the heavy contact areas. (the...

I got a set of 9000k HIDs in my mustang in the original housing... They look amazing, which is the only reason I still have them. Light output is about 20% less forward, and about 75% less on the sides of the car.I would only recommend getting a HID set if you have a projector style...
so get the 1:1 before I plan on looking for a MSQ for this thing? Should I go out and buy a Aeromotive 1:1 or will those ones on ebay work? Not much variation that I can see in a mechanical piece like that.
I just ordered myself this MSnS kit and I was wondering about the FPR. I currently have a vortech 12:1 FMU on my car and I'm wondering if I'm going to have to get a 1:1 FPR before I can run my car.I've been sucking in as much information about the MS as I can in the last week, and I'm...
awesome, thanks for the reply. I havent been on the forums in quiet a while. MegaSquirt was just coming out when I was really on here all the time. I'm shocked at how far its come along. Been doing lots of reading about it.
Just a quick question after reading these postings. MS controls your spark as well? The problem I'm having with my car is my ECU will not send out a signal to coil 1. Would I be able to bi-pass my ECU controlled spark all together by installing a MS system?
like everyone is saying, pop it on a dyno if you wanna know if your HP went up or not. An exhaust is gonna make a difference, but its not gonna be like throwing a turbo on or something. I know I didnt notice a thing on my mustang when I put my new exhaust on it. (I cant say for the talon...
Well guys, its been some time since I've posted in here. My baby has been on hold for a while, but the time has come to where I can finally get it going again.Here is the problem. Coil1 (ECUpin2 Blk/Blu) will not fire. I've went thru every possible thing it could be, chased ever wire...
god is this true...lolI have the star stage 2, I really enjoy it... but yes... you will get it and want more. You will always want more. The kit itself will give you a kick in the ass that will keep you happy for a while tho.
Well, I just got everything finished. No more boost leaks, no vac leaks, everything working just the way it should.I was getting on the expressway and SNAP, there goes my timing belt. 1800 miles on it, and it snapped... wtf... Its a Goodyear Gator Back, so I'm getting ahold of goodyear...
I'm so bummed. I had a 89 Olds to drive as a daily driver, and the dang thing blew up. I think it has a cracked cylender head. Don't feel like ripping the engine apart to fix it. Does anyone have or know of anyone who has a Quad 4 engine. I wouldn't mind pulling the motor and dropping a...
Wow, I log in after a few months and ofcourse I'm flooded with PMs and Threads about the Targa...lol Run some searches, me and Dre posted so much info on this its not funny. Fair warning... plan on having another car, cause its alot of work to do to your daily.
I'm parting my car out. I'm not sure if this is the proper place to post this message, but I got absolutely no response from the classifieds. I figured a lot more 420 guys will see it here.Check my parts list, everything is going. Star Stage 2 kit, motor, everything. PM me please
Well, I got that coil a while back.. .just because.The coil is good, cause I flipped the wires around and put coil 2's wires on coil 1. It flipped the problem. It started firing on coil 1 and not coil 2. I'm gonna be trying stuff out soon. I've just been busy with work and shit, its hard...
I haven't had time or money to dump into this car, so I just let it sit.I'll try the cam sensor. Its not super expensive to get a new one, so I'll try it. Taking it to a shop is my last resort...
ok, well, I worked on it tonight and found out a few things that are STUMPING me.1st, I'm not getting spark on coil1 (cyl 1&4), but I am on coil2 (2&3). I took the wires for coil signals and switched them to make sure the coil was good. It is, it just flipped the problem, so I put it back to...
