a previous owner told me that there is a spoolin up or charge air AFPR in the car. since the company is out of business there is no pics of it. he said you use an allen wrench to adjust the FP and you hook up a FP guage on top of it, can anyone confirm this?
the thing about most of the pcv valves you pick u p at the local store is that they weren't made for turbocharged vehicles. if you're sure it's the pcv valve, pick up an oem part.

1. the little line on the top of the BOV connects to a T, the T has the wastegate actuator line connected to it, a line that leads to the intake manifold, and the BOV line. is this proper way these lines are supposed to be?2. is the LICP supposed to have a little vacuum line coming out of it...
good luck man, i was in your shoes a couple years ago. reading the DSM boards everyday waiting for the chance to officially call myself a dsmtuner. just be patient and a good deal. good luck
When
-you drive a rusted 1g turbo but at stop-lights you have the confidence as if you're driving a brand new vette-whenever you see another DSM on the road, you try and see if it's turbocharged.-when you've spent more money on your DSM than your girl/wife-When you see an evo on the road...
i just finished watching it, nice video, good footage. didn't care for the music but i'm sure a lot of other people will like it. thanks for sharing. and it sucks that i live in hawaii.
damn the 75pc craftsman toolset i just buoght from sears!!! it came with only the 5/8" socket with rubber insert, and a very short extension.. only like 3 inches. :cry:also, i bought a screw in type compression guage, does this mean i have to fish down in the hole and screw it in from 5...

alright guys, i've read the boost leak test how-to articles. i bought the machv boost leak tester because i'm too lazy to put it together myself.. i bought the 7 gallon air tank from walmart.i took off the intake pipe from the turbo, hooked up the boost leak tester, hooked up the air...
i was like you a couple years ago, if you're going to get an eclipse, get a gst/gsx.. trust me and everyone who bought a rs/gs and ended up selling it for a gst/gsx, me included... i just didn't feel like a real DSMer with my RS. because a lot of people who own rs/gs's on the road don't even...
hey guys, my gas guage is really inconsistent in my 1g. one day i could be at a half tank, then the next i could be almost at the E, then the next day i could be back up at the half tank mark.. does anyone know how to fix this? thanks
when my UICP and BOV was not secured tight and was leaking i noticed a lot louder noise when my turbo spooled. even when i gave it partial throttle i heard the turbo spool really loud even at 2k.
i bought the car with a supra fuel pump without an AFPR, and I could get only 250 miles to the tank before I needed to fill up. could that be part of the problem?
sorry such an ignorant question I couldn't find the answer. but someone is selling a type-s BOV off his evo, is the flange for the evo and 1g the same?
i only have 1 fan, am i supposed to have 2? i'm not over-heating, atleast i don't think so. should i pick up another fan or do some ppl also run with only 1 fan? thanks
it doesn't look like a 1g bov to me, but i'm not sure.. i asked the previous owner and he said he didn't know, some generic one.. can you guys help me out?
i have a smic, yes i have driven it for about 50 miles with no big problems.. and the BOV is recirculated, I have another 96 n/t. i just didn't update my profile.thanks for all the quick replies guys.. I just have 1 more question. I'm thinking of putting on a k&n air filter, as well as...

hey guys, i just wanted to post the link, to the most beautiful automobile every made.. i don't remember who this car belongs to, but i just wanted to say, that you are the man!!!!!! i hope you don't mind that i made it my wallpaper.http://www.dsmtuners.com/gallery/files/2/7/8/4/2784bling1.jpg...
i have a 96 rs, i tried cleaning out the throttle body and that didn't work.. do you guys suggest i buy the ohmeter(or however you spell it) and check to see if my TPS is the problem?i'm idling at 1100-1200 right now, occasionally it will drop to the 700-800 range.. one time, in the 2 months...
hey guys, i have a 96 rs and sometimes it won't start up when it's been sitting in the sun.. it starts up and runs fine when it does start up.. it gives me one rev then dies out. my rpm jumps to 1000 then it does out right after. and i see all my lights, light up. like the check engine, gas etc...
hey guys, i can't find the BISS screw on the throttle body, i looked over my manual but that wasn't any help, and i've looked at the vfaq but that didn't help either, im probably just dumb but the 1g example didn't help me out much.
here's a couple pics and i would appreciate it if you guys...
here's a link to a pic that i took, where does it go?
one goes to the radiator cap, but i can't find where the other goes. the car runs fine with it unattached, and i get no CEL. does it matter?http://home.hawaii.rr.com/sirbutter/dsm%20001.jpg
hey guys, the handle in my 2g broke off because the glue just wouldn't cut it.
i read in the owner's manual that there's a clip that connects to it, do you guys think the clip will fix my problem? ill give you the links to the pics i tookhttp://home.hawaii.rr.com/sirbutter/dsm%20002.jpg...
i just got my 97-99 front bumper and was wondering what you guys thought about the fog light insert that goes in it. i seen some people do the conversion and left the insert out. it looks pretty good with it out, yeah it doesn't look stock and it looks unusually big, but it doesn't look too bad...

thanks for the quick replies.. yes the car does run fine. i don't know if this has to do with the fuel pump, but the first time i filled up my gas tank, the pump didn't stop pumping gas until it overflowed, is that a fuel pump failure?and for the power steering pump, i honestly don't know...
i recently bought a 96 rs and immediately took it to hawaii mitsubishi to get a diagnostic.
well unfortunately they said that the fuel pump and power steering pump is bad, and the head gasket is leaking.well my dad already purchased the fuel and power steering pump for $400 from...
yeah I just bought a 96 rs with 100k on it, replaced the water pump and timing belt the day i bought it.. and i'm also getting a squeeling sound around the timing belt/water pump.
