It was leaking from the oil drain on the pan, which I fixed so most of my oil probably went on the ground from there! the PCV valve has pressure coming out from it so im guessing its not gunked up? I have not yet cleaned any of the piping, the previous owner didn't take care of it at all! I...

Think its all just gunked up inside the smic?

I purchased a 91 talon Tsi with a blown turbo, I replaced the turbo with a good 16g i had! The old turbo blew all the oil and antifreeze down the exhaust, making it smoke like crazy! Now after I replaced turbo and go it running good again, It blows oil out of the bov which really has my concern...

Exactly what I figured and ya im very interested in buying one, I have the money set aside for the pte so I know ill have enough for the hx40! Do you know what size of inj to go with? Any sort of chart saying what inj may max out at or anything!? And I was told 500whp is gonna be very tight on...

Ya the clips just go bad, I just took a screw driver and had someone play with the door lever while i adjusted the clip in the right stop, some times they get bent and what not!

ya I have every bolt on, built long block, Eagle H beams, Wiseco 1400 hds, stock crank polished, arp mains, arp headstuds, MLS headgasket, GSC S2 cams, Beehive springs/ Retainers. Inj ill need to upgrade for e85, Im running the 255 fuel pump someone told me to get a different one thats just...

Ya journal bearing is what I was thinkin, I wanna buy new or at least know the turbo is good, because I was ripped off on a 50 trim I bought. Im thinking holset would be cheaper anyhow, is the lag bad on the hx40? And any opinion on what size inj. to run to hit my goal? I am willing to try any...

I was wondering which turbo is better for my 500-550whp goal? the PTE 5857 or the 6262, or I was also wondering weather or not to do hx40, I just don't know where to find the hx40 at. Also was wondering which inj. to use. I currentyl have 1050cc fic's, but I know for sure I can't make 500 if I...

The turbo honestly seems fine spins freely, I guess its just my mind, no in and out shaft play! But could the turbo still be blown? If I don't find out im just gonna throw a HG on it with studs, TONS of coolent and oil coming from the exhaust when it runs. It does not over heat according to the...

I had a stock 14b turbo, still continues to poor out the exhaust! Im gonna replace the hg and stud it! What are some necessary steps for doing the hg, cleaning/checking wise!

turbo, ill pick up a new one, but if turbo was shot would there be oil and coolent coming from the exhaust!! A significant amount as well!! And how do you do a leak down test? Just drain?

Could it be headgasket? any chance?

I picked up a 91 talon tsi, fwd just as a daily for cheap going through it got her running, started her up and she just starts smoking white smoke really bad. Exhaust has oil/coolent dripping out of it. Turbo has slight shaft play nothing to bad at all, very slight in and out play!? But tons and...

Speed Density? Is it hard to hook up and is the 95$ kit on ecmlink.com all i need to use it? Along with eprom ecu and dsm link? What exactly does it do?

Ya fix that intercooler piping make it go around that right side and up with your new J-pipe! That is an ebay manifold, which if your lucky it won't crack but most of them do that I have seen. I have seen those Manifolds run for 75-175 bucks really! And intercooler piping, i have seen that...

Alright hopefully i can get this all figured out, lol. Hope it all goes well!

I cant remember where i saw the picture/diagram on here. But it doesn't look to hard, plug and play is what everyone tells me! Shouldn't be to hard! Since the translator is a tuning device ive heard? But how is that gonna work helping me tune, since im already using wideband, and link?

Might give you more practice, but i remember even with the Intake Mani off, its a pain to get that bolt off/on with rachet. Im sure you can do it, take your time and do it right. Everything will work out, its a dsm :)

Dang, well even with the translator, is it still easy to hook up?

ya, mine was already scratched up a little on the back side, Its still alright unless you wanna have it all for the looks, in which i really am trying for a really clean look!

I have the special pliars to get them snap-rings down in there, but i still had to use flat head screw driver and a hell of a lot of work, and wow thanks for just saving me some money, so i plug that cable in to the GM Maft that is in my intercooler piping and run it to my ecu? Thats pretty...

Ya, im gonna be running the GM MAF setup, hopfully thats a no brainer type hookup!

Alright, i wonder why when i bought the car it didn't have an O ring on it, Hmm. So it goes intercooler pipe, o ring, bov, then snap ring/c-clip? And it SHOULd stay on?

No, never had an o ring, never tried it either

No, lol! Im saying to use a gasket under the bov and then to use the snap ring, or c-clip! Because right now the snap-ring im using fits in and around it but there is still room that i can spin the bov around but can't lift it up! But under pressure it does pop off! Hmmm tricky lol

I did mine with the Intake Mani off, the Down pipe is in the way of getting through from the bottom unless you have small arms and can fit through it! Other wise you could probably get through from the bottom. I don't think you will be able to get it from the top with the Intake Mani on the...

^^ Liquid is right i just put my Magnus Intake Mani on last night, took all that old mani off, he is right its on the back side of the block!

Sweet Exactly what i needed! Thanks! Do they wear out or something or what lol? Someone told me once just to use/make a gasket to go under it so it doesn't have any room to move!

Secure bov, Im running the hks suquential! It won't stay on the short route piping intercooler, every time i start car it pops off, I am currently securing it with a snap ring, looks to me now as if its too "thick" can't seem to find any "thinner" one from any shops or online places these past...

RS is a base model it has roll up windows no cruise control or any special electronic thing in it, GS has all that and has power windows and all that special stuff, has 4 wheel disc brakes as well :) I also don't think RS's have sun roofs, RS's are much lighter too!

HAHA!, a dent is not gonna stop you from making power is what he told me after he did it! I still haven't fixed it yet, im gonna finish the motor and then fix it!

I have well over a week of labor into my dsm and im still not done tearing it apart to begin throwing the new parts on! It takes lots of time and expecially patients! Cant own a dsm without patients! I just payed 3500 to do body work and paint to my baby and then 2 months later after all pretty...

Im running an hks bov sequential! But I am having problems with it! not with the bov its self, but the snap ring holding it on the intercooler piping is to "thick", anyone have any ideas on how to hold it on differently? Can't seem to find a thinner one.

Im currently running the HKS Sequential BOV and when i read boost it pops off! Very bad, its on the VRSF short route intercooler piping held on by a snap ring! What other options are there to hold that baby on there? I can't seem to find a "thinner" snap ring. The bov came on the stock...

I made simple mods at first. I did 3" full exhaust, Boost controller, 16g Turbo, Front Mount, With link, And supporting fuel mods (Injectors, and Fuel pump) and I hit 315whp!

So its really not that hard? i will have it running and using link before i even buy the meth kit so I suppose just tune it like that before I get meth kit? And does meth actually add hp?

Is it hard to tune your car for meth? I have not even started my car up since I put the built head on it and all the aftermarket bolts on, and my 50 trim. I have not even tuned it in the first place without meth? Whats the difference in tuning without meth and with? I need lots of help...

What current Meth Injection Kit out for sale is the best one to purchase? And Is It really worth doing Meth Injection to make power? -Snow Performance Meth Kit? -AEM Meth KitWhich of these is the better and more reliable one? And what does Meth Improve or do?

I'm more concerned on what fuel to run to make 400whp! And if my 7bolt stock bottom end will hold that power! From what Gofer has proved I am trying to almost follow in his footsteps! Just need the funds and products to do so!

all the mechanics in my area i have asked about e85 they all say its nothing but shitty fuel! and not to do it! i have an aeromotive fuel pressure reg! They all do the same thing as far as im concerned don't they? Is it harder to tune with e85 and am i really gonna notice the difference after i...

I have searched the forums, and found that everyone is saying bigger injectors, bigger fuel pump, and must use stainless steel line? and does it actually lower your gas mileage down that low? Im alright with less mileage considering it's only a weekend driver during the summer.Currently, i...

ya i understand!!! i have simply went from bone stock to this now highly modified car.. i just am looking for imputas for e85 conversion, can anyone or has anyone found a link that describes what to buy and what to do to convert? A good/decent link!

ya i understand that, i do have engine mounts and am running an act 2600 with a lightweight flywheel. only thing is that i have never tuned before so i guess i start low and build up from there when i get better i do have several guys that tune around here so they will helpi was really just...

i think my only stock part of my car for engine wise is the bottom end lol!!! i have intake side all done turbo side all done.. head is built ill tune it with dsm link wide band and translator.. fuel system is all done and ready to go! lol

use what lol!!adn whats classified as race gas??? higher then 93 lol? we have 110 30 min away from where i live lol...

ya thats true! thanks

okk??? wow.. kinda new to this!im just really trying to figure out how much these motors can withstand and just need help figureing it out. im just hoping for 350whp and hope that its safe to run that 350-400 is my goal

How easy is it to make 400hp on a 50 trim and is it safe to run 400hp on a stock 7bolt bottom end with 50k miles on it? everything else is built and aftermarket top of the line parts... i have built 2g head...5 angle work bc 280s i have not even started it up yet.. still waiting on my exhaust to...

I got a 97 gst all stock except injen intake and filter and hks bov...idles at 1600 rpm tho....anyone got any suggestions weather its vaccum leak? i tried finding a vaccum leak and couldn't find one anone know what else to look at?
