Hey guys. So I just recently finished up my rebuild and went over the car. All hoses, electrical connections, etc were intact and how they were suppose to be. So I went to crank the car and it cranks but it does not start. I've done alot of researching both on this site and other 420a forums...

Congrats on your find and welcome!

Welcome to tuners. You'll grow to love your dsm trust me.

Welcome! I'm a big fan of early model evo's.

Kyb agx adjustable struts with Megan racing lowering springs.

Yeah I gutted the entire interior minus the dash, and switched driver seats to a lightweight racing seat and the car was still 2750lbs without me in it. To get lower than that weight you'll have to delete things under the hood, cutout spare tire well, and use like a 5 gallon fuel cell.

I'd also go with the punishment racing i/c piping.

Just curious, but what is your vacuum at idle?

I just did fit 225/45/17's in the rear without it rubbing on a 2" drop. But like he said I blew my struts out quick.

Personally I would overbore it to be on the safe side.

Pics! Oh and congrats on the purchase!

Welcome! Hope you enjoy the forum. Lots of good info and experienced guys on here.

awddynomite is the fastest stock bottom end and turboed with a low 12 1/4 mile. Not sure with n/a.

Not 100% sure, but I'm pretty sure their isn't.

Where do you recomeened getting the amsoil from? Online?

This is a product I would be more than interested in purchasing! Good idea Mark!

Also, did you wire up a resistor pack with the 450cc injectors? Just want to make sure b/c if not the injectors will not work correctly b/c they are low impedence injectors whereas the stock injectors are high impedence.

It's been a while since I've had mine on my car, but if I remember correctly you want to loosen the screw on the top(turn to the left) in order to lower the static fuel pressure. The static fuel pressure is what the pressure will be when the fuel system is primed. I can't remember exactly what...

JEGS Fuel Pressure Gauges - JEGSOne this size should be all you need.

Not to dig up an old thread, but did replacing the alternator fix your problem? I seem to be experiencing the same exact thing.

He means don't hit boost with the gas pedal only pressed half way down. With your setup it will more than likely bog down at part throttle under boost. You can either use the msd or crane ignition for your intended boost level of 18psi, but both are expensive. But like he stated, with 18 psi...

Very true. Lol, I only mentioned the higher priced turbo's and totally forgot about those. The t25, evo III 16g, big 16g and more than likely 14b turbo would suit your needs.

Imo, I loved my HRC Super 16g when I was boosting upwards of 10-12psi on a built motor. It pulled very nice. The garrett turbos mentioned above also work nicely so it's really your decision. For up to around 16-18psi, I recomeened the Super 16g, turbonetics t3/t4 or Garrett t3 turbo for...

I read on the srt forums a while back that rage-tek(also a dsmtuners member) was experimenting with a dogbox tranny setup for there turbo 420a drag car. I haven't heard anything else about it since, but they are the only ones I know of who have explored it.Also, I just saw on ebay where...

+2 on the alternative lsd. The only choices we have anymore are between quaife(which is great quality,but expensive) and the phantom grip(which imo and what I hear is crap).+2 on the intake manifold. The only ones offered are made by Venom and Obx(which has poor manufacturing defects)...

Whats up guys? My name is Heath and I'm from Southern Mississippi. I have a 97 eclipse rs turbo with many upgrades, sorry only pic I have right now is my avatar. I've been a member over on 2gnt.com for about handful of years now and decided to finally become a member here also since this is a...
