I wonder if these create any sort of airflow? It almost seems as if it would help to cool down the brakes.

I see that very nice! This car actually had the 396 turbo jet badges on it, I removed the ones from the hood haha. It was a bit out of a place considering the 60s camaros had the 396.

Looks great man, get some measurements and I'll 3d print you some caps.

It's not the first clutch. The car has around 330whp and the clutch hasn't slipped a single time in a whole year that I've owned the car. 147k chassis, 60k on block and transmission, and 3k on the head. The car has been parked in my garage once It was refusing to go into gear I parked it, I've...

I am taking another break from this plat form. It all started when I turned 16 and got a 1990 GST, when I turned 17 I decided to pull the engine and trans and purchase about $2000 worth of parts that I never ended up completing. Fast forward 10 years and I got another Eclipse but 1997 GSX this...

No idea on the clutch it's not stock is all I know. Clutch adjustment is perfect, it has no leaks fluid is full. It was more of a sudden change nothing really lead up to it happening, at first it started with first gear being hard to get into then minutes later it was all of the gears and...

So just recently I have started having issues with my transmission. When the car is off shifting is smooth, when the car is idling it's very hard to get it into any gear, once you get it into gear you can hear some chatter/metal rotating on metal noise, this goes away once you start driving...

Regardless of mileage the car is still old, do all your maintenance first so you know where you are. Just because it has 63k miles doesn't mean it couldn't be ready to blow, adding power is always a recipe for disaster. My second car at 16 was a 1990 GST and the first thing I did was turn up the...

As Tks9d2tsi said above make sure everything is setup properly, or you'll be in a never ending cycle of changing your tune. I was in that position a while back and now everything is good, after fixing several leaks, getting my ISC and TPS set properly as well as making sure base timing is...

I live in Woodburn right now. I lived in Beaverton around 5 years ago.

This is nice to see, good on you for trying to reach out. Also another Oregon member!

I'm making easily 300+ whp on a 16g, I was pushing 120% duty cycle on some used 680cc delphi injectors. I'm using FIC 1220cc and I only get 40-50% WOT duty cycle.

I just did a rebuild on my head with ferrea 6000 valves, viton valve stem seals, and BC 268/272 cams. Its drives very good, I haven't degreed my cams any so idle is very stockish but I gained noticeable top end power. I do have a fully built 2.3l block as well. Oh I kept stock springs and retainers.

So first things you need are a boost and wideband gauge, will only read vacuum until you turbo it. Then from there you need a way to tune the car I'm not sure what the 420a guys use. You cant install a 255 and larger injectors without having an adjustable fuel pressure regulator and a tuner to...

So I have done some reading and cant find an answer. Both my boost gauge and map sensor are showing around 15-17 psi at full boost, however the boostest calculated from the mas is reading 33. Why would this be showing basically double what my actual readings are? My first guess would be boost...
