it can if your engine has 150,000 miles and has never been cleaned. All the carbon on the valves might be keeping those leaks plugged. When you clean that carbon out you opened up a whole new problem. As long as you maintain your engine that shouldn't happen.

Lol my neighbors are going to kill me.

Good luck mang!

+1 on that

try that

nice find!

bobby Mc' bob pants

Compression test:175,165,160,150No time to put oil in the 4th because i had to go. :( but i assume it would of went up though.Leak down:first and second=no leaks.third was something like 5%4th was around 10-12%so you guys think my rings are ready to poop out?

yes they do

so are the control arms suppose to move like that?bad bushings?or maby just cause the bolt was loose?Would the movement of the control arms cause the car to slightly turn/bottom out when hitting bumps or would the bottom out be more with the strut.im looking to buy a new shock/spring...

Ok so today i took off fender and bumper to replace.i figured it would be a good time to take the wheel off and check out the suspension.When i hit bumps it doesn't feel good at all. feels like it bottoms out. sometimes bigger bumps will make the car sway kind of like its sliding. it...

yeah i was already thinking of gettinghttp://www.streettunedmotorsports.com/parts/energy_suspension_dsm_master_set.htmand some coil overs. Guess ill have to pick up some OEM stuff too.i got my taxes so its either suspension, fuel stuff, or a TRE tranny.suspension is bad and the tranny...

Alright before i take my car to the shop to figure this out i wanted to ask here encase someone might know.My suspension feels pretty bad when driving, bumps are not my friend. not sure if its shot or what. when i turn at slower speeds you can hear one or two clunks.While turning on...

says i need a scan tool too adjust the BISS. what kind of tool.

I have a 2g with a 1g TB. my CEL was on due too P0505. i bought a 1g ICS to fix it.the CEL is off but now the idle is insane. 1000-1500. i searched and didnt find a good answer. anyone have this prob?

There wasn't any smoke until after the BLT. I guess ill try a compression test. I gotta get a tester first. Ill post the numbers when its done.

My car started driving like crap after i got off the highway. i wasnt driving hard or anything, just cruising. at stop lights it would almost stall and at idle my BG read 0psi. it seemed harder to drive it also.i posted the problem on here and i was told it was a boost leak. i did my first...

alright ill run a test and see whats up. thanks

Hey whats up everyone. I drove my car about 50 miles today. it started running crappy after i got off the highway. i was getting really bad idle surges at red llgithts (almost staling).main problem im having is the boost gauge is reading zero at idle. same thing when i drive off. if i give...

Just picked up a 97 gst. i had a 1g a long time ago and used to be on this forum. glad to be back with the DSMs.just one quick question. with the mods i have now what is the highest PSI the engine willl handle safely?

heheh whoops

alright well ive been searching around and cant really find the answer i want. what should i add too the list to get it around 260-280 maybe 300 whp? im sure its on here somewhere but I've been searching all night last night and all day today:ohdamn: i checked out the mod stages and i got all of...

well from what ive been reading i think im getting a AFC and a logger with a Stage 3 keydriver chip and EPROM ECU with some 850 injectors. i just gotta learn how too tune.( most likely go too a dyno with dsmlink :hmm:) we'll see what happens. ill post when i get some numbers on this thing.

yeah the guy i bought it from said he was on a forum. guess it was this one.

thanks man.anyone have an idea of how much HP and TQ i should be making right now?im looking into getting some bigger injectors and a Apexi safc just not sure on how to use it yet.

im not a fan of the CF hoods either. im looking to find a stock hood for it.

i got it pretty cheap cause the body is about 6 out of 10. the front left quarter panel is a little mangled and the rear left quarter panel and bumper are pushed in. The CF hoods finish is cracking off too. other little dings here and there. in the long run the paint is in very good condition...

yes its correct. i bought it for 4800.so 16 psi tops, got it. i was gonna pump it up to 20. good thing i asked first ROFL
