I would double check where the boost guage is installed and make sure its in the best spot. Also the guage could be on the fritz, what brand is it?

I'm here for the pic too. :thumb:

I have never heard of hooking it up to the P port. But i have a 1g manifold too and my bov is hooked up just like that picture above illustrates. I can understand how you could over look it though, it's kinda hidden under the front of the IM. I would take another look at it and examine...

Yes, you may cut off the front half of the driver side motor mount. You don't need it.

Do you proof read at all before you post? That doesn't even make sense.

Yeah totally.. super duper rare!! :rolleyes:

You will have to take the intake off when you turbo it. That will be the easiest thing to do. You can't keep it on because the route the air travels from the turbo to the intake manifold is continuous, meaning there aren't any gaps. You would have to convert your intake to an upper intercooler...

That wasn't the question.It took me and a buddy about 3 hours to get the engine out in my 1g.

You might run into some problems with the psi of the oil, im not sure if the tranny cooler is strong enough.

Lol that caravan is amazing! It would be so effin funny to take that out and totally annihilate a some ricer kid that thinks his car is fast, in a minivan! He would get so pissed lol. Please tell me you've done that!As for your question, our cars can be very reliable. The 4g63 engine is a...

Yes the dipstick could definitely cause all that oil to get everywhere and the engine to smoke. It has happened to me before. A quick remedy you could try is just to clean the rubber seal and get all the oil off it and also try to wipe off some the oil where the rubber seal sits at in the...

That's weird, because i know my oil cooler is a 2g, and im positive it's air cooled.

It has to be on some of them, because i custom fabbed a 2g oil cooler on my 1g and its air cooled.

Isn't the oil air cooled on 2g's? Coolant doesn't even touch the oil cooler.

Try craigslist.

The only reason why they didnt come with a gasket from the factory was to save mitsubishi money. Think about it, imagine the price difference between having to buy material and make all those gaskets, or just buying one tube of RTV that'll make 10 gaskets. They were just being cheap and using...

You dont need the adjustable bolt, i kept having problems with mine loosening. Just find a bolt that'll fit through the hole and bracket then find a nut to match the bolt and throw in a lock washer to make sure it stays. Then use a something to push down on the alternator to tighten the belt...

Have you had the cams out at all since you got the motor?

Nope.

Synthetic oil doesn't tear your seals at all. Do you think every nascar team would use it if it did? Not to mention all the cars nowadays that come straight from the factory with mobil 1 fully synthetic. I don't think they would do that if it tore up seals. The only reason it may leak if you...

Just use a mexican speed wrench! haha :thumb:

Adjustable fuel pressure regulator (AFPR), and either a air fuel controller or dsmlink and a palm pilot with web OS and pocketlogger software.

Bigger injectors, fuel pump, afpr, some logging/tuning device.

I know guys that have done races on mobil 1 that ran out of oil before the last lap, they had 0 oil pressure the entire last lap. He pushed it anyways because it was time for a rebuild, and when we took that engine apart there was barely any noticeable damage at all. This has happened to 2 guys...

I wouldn't put ATF in my manual tranny, there is a reaason why its "ATF" and doesn't say "universal tranny fluid". Just go with the royal purple stuff or i just used redline 10w30 and it worked well.

No, the gears dont need to be off. Just take off the cam caps and take out the cams. Also pay attention to where they were because one is for the intake and one is for the exhaust, dont get them mixed up, they arent interchangeable.

Thanks guys! Got it bolted up last night. :thumb:

It runs and pulls great with 40 compression across the board? I seriously doubt it.

Thats some crazy shit! :thumb:

Find the wire going to the light and cut it.

Ok thanks! Is the insert really obvious though? Becasue i probably should have saw it, but i dont remember seeing it lol. Oh well ill have to double check later because im at work right now.

Wow how'd they fit 2 motors in one car?? ROFL

Was there any difference at all in 6 bolt crankshafts? Like auto vs manual. Because i swapped an engine from a manual car into my auto car and now my tranny wont bolt up right.There is a little nub that sticks out of the back of the torque converter that goes into the end of the...

Then it should bolt up flush? Becuase i physically measured that hole in the old crankshaft (like end of crank to bottom of hole) and it was mathematically deeper than the new one. Would just a spacer fix that?

Yup, considering the "no compression" part in my post.

If you have the cams backwards then you wouldnt have any compression. For an example, the intake cam in the exhaust cam's spot and vise versa.

Does anyone know if a 2g torque converter will fit/work in a 1g tranny?

Im about 95.3% x 3.14 sure it wont.

Oil doesn't burn white fellas, coolant does. Oil has a blue tint to it. But yes fuel is black.

I only thing i could really think of is the oil pump gasket is bad or a bolt isnt tightened all the way. But i would really look to see if its runing down from some place above like the valve cover or cam seals.

Yeah thats why i was asking if he could see the exact spot because it could be running down from someplace above like the cam seals or valve cover.

As long as he has all the right fittings and uses common sense, it shouldn't be a problem.

I was just asking because the pressure from the head is usually significantly lower than the oil pump or filter housing. I dont think you have anything to worry about, i havent heard of anyone having too high oil pressure problems from the head.

Can you see the exact spot where it is pouring out of?

Yeah i got an idea, pull the engine out of a F-16 fighter jet. That should give you some more power.

Well you could just buy a machanical oil pressure gauge kit then all you would need is a place to tap into the head. Why do you want to know the oil pressure at the head?

Mechanical gauge or electric?

No there is a classified section on the site, never used it before. But i know there is one. Good luck!

The high pitched squeal one is the hks SSQV i believe. And yeah your best chance of passing smog is getting all stock stuff.
