    Where in Texas are you? Some good choices here in Houston, also in SA and DFW.

    FP Manifold Bolts Vs FFWD Connection?

    Excuse my lack of knowledge there but I've only seen two types of lock washers used on these bolts, split & teeth (for lack of knowing its real name). Didnt know there were other kinds to consider but can say these two types work correctly even after more than one use.

    FP Manifold Bolts Vs FFWD Connection?

    Yep any lock washer will work, no modifing to the bolts just replace the flat ones they come with. Never had a problem with them seizing personally.

    FP Manifold Bolts Vs FFWD Connection?

    I run the FFWD Arp kit and my issue was the flat washers. Bolts kept backing out no matter how much I tqed them, tried blue n red threadlocker, same thing. Switched to lock washers n no issues since, you can use the split washers or the ones with curved teeth. Kinda look like a fan.

    What spark plugs and gap to use for 23+ psi

    Yes the car will run fine, assuming all other possible issues are addressed. Now if you notice (and you will) the car breaking up in the 5-5.5k range then your gap is too tight for that boost level. If it purrs to redline then your golden. Understand there may be some trial n error as you work...

    Running lean and pulling time..

    Something is wrong with the wiring or the sensor. Pull the sensor and wrap it in a cloth or shop towel sprayed with brake cleaner, the reading should go pretty rich. If so the sensor is fine, next do the open air recalibration. Check the wiring of the wb itself. If none of this is your problem...

    Oil leak after BSE install **VIDEO**

    Had the same issue after doing the bse. My leak came from the crank shaft seal from same kit. I took the timing cover off and started the car, reved it and you would see oil spraying from under the crank bolt.

    EBC + EWG Vacuum Routing

    I believe that's your clutch slipping at 5k. I would make sure the master is set correctly, check the slave for air pockets, and check that the pedal isn't appling pressure to the system. Reason it mainly happens at high is due to the increased tq from 14psi to 18psi. You say the flywheel is...

    Godspeed o2 housing

    At least you caught it early. I order one from 4G63Built (aka Slowboy) which looks EXACTLY like this one. Install was a nightmare, bolts it came with were too big, stud too small, didn't fit correctly. Looked at the flange, to my naked eye looks fine, really should've used a flat edge. Got it...

    Forced Performance exhaust manifold blanket off ebay?

    Just installed mine last night. Took the car for a hard drive and could place my hand on the mani afterwards. Very warm but nowhere near the burning hot it was before. Be patient with the install and the smell afterwards is it curing and is normal.

    EBC + EWG Vacuum Routing

    Actually I said it wrong. Here's a pic of where the line is on mine. I said top when I should've said side. The true top port is the one that's left open to allow the wastegate to vent. My car would do odd things on Hi setting also but I found that to be due to the Set value. Set value is...

    ECMlink E316G on E85 in need of tune help.

    You're right the settings are very different but are set based on the voltage I'm seeing in RawLin .88-.98. In car gauge matches the afre very closely. Logging it is another matter. I will check the links and try again from scratch, I think the 3.29 keeps reloading. I'm guessing I have to be...

    ECMlink E316G on E85 in need of tune help.

    Ok here's a log from last night, I followed the video to the letter and have realized I surely have an issue. No matter what I did the voltage of the EGR stays low with little movement causing the LinWB to jump all over the place. Even trying lowering the scale but it didn't help much. What...

    ECMlink E316G on E85 in need of tune help.

    I put that up wrong, sorry about the incorrect info. I believe I'm over-thinking the e85 scale and you'll right, better to just stay within the gas scale. I'm hoping to try My1G's suggestion tonight if all goes well. So glad to have a working o2 sensor again, much easier to adjust based on...

    EBC + EWG Vacuum Routing

    So what's the max boost you're getting at Hi? Sounds like your wastegate is opening early or too weak a spring. Also what kind of wg is it? I have a Tial and the there's no second line connected to it. Just one on top, second one is a vent for the gate itself. I would try disconnecting that T...

    ECMlink E316G on E85 in need of tune help.

    Pulled apart the wb and checked everything, guess who taped the calibration wire to the metal radio frame? So the wb was recalibrating in the exhaust everytime I started the car. Also the led from the hook up was dead so now I know why it never lit up. Pulled the downpipe, recalibrated, added...

    heat from fire wall

    I have the same issue, also an auto to 5sp swap. Didn't think about the insulator being the cause of it but makes sense as I don't have one. Would one from a true 5sp car fix this? I hate driving my car during the day because of this.

    ECMlink E316G on E85 in need of tune help.

    Right, I'm sure that's causing the fuel trim issues but I'm wondering what coulod cause the wb/afre to not line up no matter how much air I add or remove from mafcomp? I can get it close (within -5%) but never + anything or flat 0.Here's a thought after doing some reading on Link, could my...

    Greddy Profec B: POS? or really big POS?

    Never used the spec one before, I have a Spec II also. Anyway Im guessing the Mild/Sharp settings are like the Lo/Hi boost settings on the II. If the one is anything like the II you can control when the wastegate opens using the Set or Gain (Again no idea what's on the I). I can completely...

    ECMlink E316G on E85 in need of tune help.

    Ugh...what the hell? The WBF is showing -48% at idle. If I go up on the sliders the car will idle unless I go too high than its rough. At the highest point on comfortable running WBF was still at -25%. If I go down from the starting point, the car barely runs and the rpms drop under 800. I...

    ECMlink E316G on E85 in need of tune help.

    Thanks man but this what I don't get: I only changed timing, afr, and boost. Didn't mess with the mafcomp but now it's off when it wasn't before? Didn't even know of wbfactor at the time and the wb/afre was damn near perfectly matched.Oh ok, I'll try it again. Also I have a/c so what else...

    ECMlink E316G on E85 in need of tune help.

    Wait, wait...I didn't go blindly throwing numbers in. I was reffering to why I starting changing the tune from what I already had. As you see the wb n afre matched in those logs and everything was correct, very little knock, hitting 11s. Things were fine. So at that point I started looking for...

    ECMlink E316G on E85 in need of tune help.

    I don't feel it with this setup but after noticing it I reloaded my safe tune just to see but this time I felt and heard the dip. On this tune AFR was on track hitting 11, only .4 knock, good boost, power, n response at 16psi (not in this log but in older ones). Me & the car loved it but I'm...

    Was bored so I took the car out :D Nice cool temps and made these pulls, the first two are second gear. Last two are in third. I noticed a power increase which I'm happy about but not liking the dips in the curves. It's like a quick cut-out or drop in power than comes right back. Wasn't doing...

    No I'm sorry, I mean that in my mind that's the scale I'm paying attention to when looking at the number.
  36. Evo_This

    ECMlink E316G on E85 in need of tune help.

    Yes that's how I see the guage when looking at it, in a e85 scale. So my question now is, if you stay in the 12:1 range with e85 won't you be pretty lean all the time?So should I try both setups or one of them?
  37. Evo_This

    ECMlink E316G on E85 in need of tune help.

    Ok haven't ran across this before. Added it to the display but what is this telling me? The % difference between the wb & af est? How do I apply this?Clearly I'm a victim of interwebs misinformation, I read that on e85 your scale was 9:1 rich to 12:1 lean. Which is why I went for 11:1...

    ECMlink E316G on E85 in need of tune help.

    So the mafcomp needs to be adjusted to fix the airflow?Drop timing, ok but shouldnt I have gained power going that advanced? It's a noticeable jump from the last table. Just wondering why I onlt got knock with no increase in power.That's funny, why would my IDCs go up? Again, last time I...

    ECMlink E316G on E85 in need of tune help.

    This is a second gear pull at 19psi, my last log was a third gear at 16ps. I notice that power begins to drop at 7100rpm. Sould that be my peak shift point as anything beyond that seems at waste? Going to the track for the first time ever next week and want to pull as much as I can out this...
