    Jackal tuning support/guide

    As stated earlier, this thread has not been used for a while but I am hoping some Jackal experts are still out there with some answers. I have had Jackal and used it in the past and ran the car on E85 but due to getting different batches of ethanol content and letting the car sit and always...

    Because there is no RallyX option

    I enjoyed reading this thread! Great looking car and much success! I am planning on doing rallycross this year and with the first event coming up, I am trying to figure out some basic information that is seeming to elude me currently. Could you tell me your exact wheel spec and tire spec for the...

    GVR-4 Intermittent Misfire at idle

    I know it has been a while but I would like to post the solution that was found for this misfire.I took my car to Genes automotive in Highland IL and he was able to figure it out. 3 things were wrong when my car was misfiring.1) My coil was arcing before the plug wire to the manifold 2) Very...

    Engine Rebuild Failure, Any Suggestions?

    It may just be a preventative maintenance thing but when was the last time your torque wrench was calibrated? Depending on the brand/ type/ use frequency, it could need to be re-calibrated. Probably not the issue but just a suggestion.

    GVR-4 Intermittent Misfire at idle

    Thanks for the advice boost97gst. I am still waiting on the cable and tunerpro to come in the mail so I can monitor what is going on. As far as the timing jumping around as you described, how much did it jump at idle? Mine is jumping between 5 and 10 BTDC pretty quick. I thought that was a...

    GVR-4 Intermittent Misfire at idle

    I am getting ignition misfire. I can see it with the timing light. Will the injector pack cause an ignition misfire? I thought they ran independent of each other. Pulled the ECU, someone else has been in there and gave it to a buddy to re-solder bad joints and clean it up. Still does the same...

    GVR-4 Intermittent Misfire at idle

    Ok, that makes sense. I do have something plugged in. lol I'll have to check because the housing is different than a 1g dsm. The galant has a different water outlet and different sensor locations. I'll have to try and find a good one from the forums somewhere. But I put an osscilliscope up to...

    GVR-4 Intermittent Misfire at idle

    I only misfire under a load at low rpm's. High rpms is fine and it isn't a constant misfire. At idle, when you hook up a timing light to any of the cylinders, it will fire consitently and then misfire every 4 seconds or so. I tapped on the CAS the other day while it was doing it and it stopped...

    GVR-4 Intermittent Misfire at idle

    Spark plugs are installed correctly and I have had 2 sets of brand new wires on it. (one set NGK and the other from Oreillys). Spark plugs are gapped correctly before installing all of them with a feeler gage (.028 I believe). I could check fuel pressure but at higher RPM's when the demand is...

    GVR-4 Intermittent Misfire at idle

    I am chasing a problem that keeps eluding me. I have a misfire at idle and in low rpms under load. After that, the car pulls just fine after about 3000 rpms. It is a 91 galant vr4 completely stock. i checked with a timing light on all four cylinders and just shined it on the firewall and you can...

    1G does Afr gauges matter on design?

    I know they cost a little more but you would be supporting our vendors here on tuners. Here is a list of innovate gauges to choose from. They usually ship really fast and have good customer service. You can probably also call them to see if they can match the price amazon has it for as well...

    Slow Spool and Little Boost

    Have you verified that the actuator is opening at the correct level of boost? It could be opening earlier, but that wont explain your slow boost build. What are you using to control your psi level? What are your AFR readings?

    1G Engine Break In Methods?

    I rebuilt my motor and just used regular castrol oil and changed after letting it idle for 30 min. The main reason why people break in motors is because engine components used to not have the precision that we have now (Someone please correct me if I'm wrong). If you look at professional race...
