I've been having consistent charging issues on my car this past year. I've gone through my third alternator in less than 600 miles. The first one has been in the car for over 5 years so I thought it was just tired. The second one was an autozone reman I got in a pinch and the third one was a...

While that looks like a really nice piece, I already have a full v-band exhaust on my car so the two bolt flange doesn't do me any good. Also the v-band they use doesn't have the male groove in it like the fp o2 housing.

Does anybody know what v-band flange works with the outlet on the Forced Performance fp30 housings? I have a housing I want to make a downpipe for but cannot seem to find the corresponding flange that fits well. I've emailed FP and they told me it was a "low profile flange made by Tial" but they...

When are you spooling? How much air are you flowing? And hp numbers? I made 376hp on a mustang dyno with my 16g. Wondering if I can squeeze some more out or swap to maybe a 20g with the 9 blade

What compressor wheel are you running?

Any experience with the 9 blade td05 wheel?

Anybody running the 9 blade TD05 turbine wheel? Have and opinions or direct comparisons to the original 12 blade wheel?Wondering if it would be worth the upgrade a in td05 16g/20g applications.

Yes in the engine bay fuse box?

Long story short I bought a car without an engine harness. Found a matching harness and got it all routed and connected(or so I'm 99% sure)When I connect the battery the door chimes come on and the courtesy lights come on with the door open, but when I turn the key on I have no power to...

I'm pretty sure it was a loose connection in the connector on top of the fuel pump hanger. Although the gauge still never reads 100% full. I can deal with it. As long as it works.

Recently had my car dyno tuned. Made pretty good numbers on the 16g. 376hp 314tq. Car runs good, pulls hard til redline.Went for a drive tonight and noticed I'm getting some pretty good compressor surge. Happens at lower at full throttle when the turbo is spooling up. After about 5k it's...

Do you know the weight of a MHI cast evo3 16g compressor wheel?

Yeah, I've seen a couple "extended tip" 16g wheels but couldn't find any real info or proven results. All I really saw is that it may increase spool slightly. Which I'm not too worried about with the 16g.

Notice any big differences with that billet wheel? Thought about switching mine out but didn't feel I would net any gains for the hassle.Still have a couple weeks until my dyno tune. Curious to see what I can pull out of my evo3 on e85

I had just checked both of them a week ago.Do the fuel level sending units use the same ground as the fuel pump? I added a new fuel pump ground when I rewired my pump, but it didn't change anything with the fuel gauge. Which ground connections at the tank, its plastic? Do the fuel senders...

My fuel gauge on my GSX has always seemed to read slightly low, but it never bothered me that much. Recently it has been reading over 1/4 low and inaccurate. I had completely filled my tank it it read under 3/4. Then I ran my tank almost dry(swap to e85) and the needle was way under empty. I put...

Been a while.

Looking for some opinions. I've got comp 101200 cams with my 16g. I have degreed them in to their spec. Idles good, right around 18 in hg. The power just seems a little laggy and weak for a 16g. I'm only running 14psi since Im still waiting on a dyno tune. I hit 14psi right around 3900, the...

Tech at my local track isn't super picky, I'm sure it will pass. I plan on having the plate removed at the track and a sticker showing where the switch is.

Finally completely finished mine. 0 gauge from the alternator to battery and battery to distribution block. Also put a battery cut off switch behind the license plate.

Mine are still connected at the same 2 spots in the pictures. You can connect them like that or on the other side of the 100a fuse, which I didn't have enough room for both terminals.Pretty sure I need to invest in a higher CCA battery. My 4 year old 540cca battery was completely dead. I...

I've had mine down on the subframe, but I'm not happy how it's mounted. Moving it to the trunk will make everything easier, and I'll have a spot for my catch can

I ended up following gofer's diagram almost exactly. I have 0 gauge running from straight off the alternator back to the battery. Then another 0 gauge splitting off for the starter and fuse box. I've removed the factory battery terminals and wires and am wondering which terminals in the fuse box...

Horrible drawing but what do you think about this? Two 1/0 wires coming right off the battery, separate breakers, then one going to the alternator and one to the fuses/starter.

Couple more

Yea thats what I was thinking also. And I know I've already changed springs a couple times and it sucks haha. Yup both top ports are open.

I've got a tial mv-s 38mm wastegate off the o2 housing. The turbo is a td05 16g with the evo3 turbine housing. The problem I'm having is the wastegate is not controlling boost levels at all. I bought brand new tial springs from extreme psi. I bought the 1 bar(14.5psi) springs. But yet when my...

I've heard the fel-pro seals are a little better quality than the OEM ones. I went with the felpro's and haven't had any leaks so far.

Thanks for all the info!Will I be ok with the original fuel lines? My pump is new, fuel filter has about 3,000 miles and I will have all new stainless lines from the filter to the rail.

Sounds like a nice setup you got there! I would definitely ditch the 850's for something over 1000cc.

Thanks guys! And for what I can sell my 850's for I feel like I can find some 1000+ for around the same price. And lower IDC's

I've done plenty of research I'm just looking for some opinions on my specific setup.Been really considering getting my car tuned on e85. My main concern is the driveability and the somewhat lack of e85 stations where I live. I have been also reading into the flex fuel setups.Car will be...

Ah I never thought of that for making it adjustable. I think I will do that.Now I just have to figure out how to mount the comp degree wheel to the crank.

The block is completely stock, just had the head gasket surface cleaned up. Head is rebuilt and has been resurfaced. I have the degree wheel and dial indicator gauges to do it. I'm just confused about getting zero lash without having to rig up some lifters

Sorry to bump an old thread. But I also have fp2's and I am wondering if I should take the time and degree them or will the results be very minimal?

Starting to throw everything back in.

Looking to buy one valve spring seat. Will buy all 16 for a decent price if I have to. Local to Milwaukee/Southeast WI.

Or should I just go 18x9 +40?

Heres my height right now on the stock gsx wheels. I could go lower but my exhaust scrapes but I'm getting that fixed.Here is 18x9.5 +35 with a 255/35/18. The wheels I'm looking at will stick out 5mm more(not even noticeable) and my tire will be slightly narrower. I want 18x9.5 +30 with...

I have already rolled my fenders.

First off, I have searched and found some threads on this but they were all older ones.Who's all running 18x9.5 wheels on a 2g? Thinking about some 18x9.5 +30 with a 245/40 tire. Just wondering how much camber I will need and how the clearance will be. Not gonna be super slammed and flush just...

Before I bought my car, it sat for over 5 years not running. Once I got it running and was driving it alot I noticed the same brown goop in my overflow tank. But when I would pop the radiator cap the coolant looked clean. I'd occasionally dump the overflow, clean it and refill with new coolant...

Bent wheel, out of balance wheel, separated/bulged tire?

Thanks guys :thumb:

Pulled my motor and noticed I chipped the plate on the oil pump gear/sprocket. :ohdamn: I haven't taken it off yet, but is the plate separate from the gear? I tried searching but can't seem to find the gear or a part number for the gear and/or plate. Does anybody know where to get one?
