Gusu is 100% right.. Synthetic oil has a higher flow rate.. flow rate is defined as mass of a substance which passes through a given surface per unit of time. When you don't change your oil it will eventually combine with combustion gases and causes the oil to become acidic. So with synthetic...

Just curious, what would be the advantage of this. Why not just keep the key in the ignition?

Check to make sure you have no shorts in your battery wires. The same thing happened to my buddy's 2g last year. We originally thought it was a bad relay b/c it was clicking just like yours is, but it turns out his positive wire from his battery was rubbing against a corner of the body and the...

Please explain your logic. He said he has 2 fans pulling air away from the radiator into the engine bay, so he has them on the inside of the radiator, so how would that restrict airflow while having them on at highway speeds?

It could depending on how long u let it run at 220 for.. I agree with gofer probably air still in the system.. If you have both fans running constantly and you have all the lines hooked up correctly now the issue is more than likely air pockets.

Youre issue is you are running 100% water with no thermostat. You don't want to run 100% water because it lowers the boiling point to 216 degrees. Since you live in Airizona you don't need to worry about freezing so you should probably do a 70-80% water 30-20% coolant mix. Also if you run with...

Verify it has the following: fuel, spark, and compression. Then do a boost leak test. http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/articles-turbo-system-intercooler/169435-boost-leak-test-how-boostpro-net-tester.html It would have to be a pretty significant boost leak to cause your car to stall instantly. Do...

Whoever said it would digest rust? Its a good idea to spray any bolt with some kind of lubricant before putting a lot of torque to it. I never stated wd-40 alone is going to help him do anything..

What are you using to try and turn it? Are you using just a 1/2" ratchet with a socket? Have you or is it possible for you to get an impact gun to try and break it loose? If an impact gun isn't an option take your 1/2" ratchet, and get a very long/large pipe. The handle of a large floor jack...

You would just have to tape over the JMF engraving before u powdercoat it. Then the JMF will stay polished/silver and the rest will be black. I personally like intake manifolds in the polished/silver look but if you're going to do the black that should look nice too..especially if you have the...

ROFL hahah hilarious

Gas is more than likely mixing with your oil. A high oil to gas mixture can produce a redish color.

If youre still using a stock MAF try unplugging it and see if it helps the issue.

Sounds like a bad MAF sensor. I know you said that it was previously changed but just for the hell of it try unplugging it and see if it runs any better. Next guess would be power transistor.

I have no personal experience with the journal bearing PTE's, I've heard good and bad things, but I have not one bad thing to say about my PTE ball bearing 6262. Great turbo and could meet or exceed your goals of 500whp in a t3/t4 form.
