    Electric Boost Solenoid Issues

    It does make more sense to run the lower port to manifold pressure if I'm gonna run both lines to a pressure source. So, I changed the diagram to reflect that suggestion. Thanks.But its not that I want to run it a certain way. I only want it to stop popping open and closed like it is.

    Electric Boost Solenoid Issues

    I have an AEM boost solenoid (which is a PWM solenoid) and when its hooked up for some reason the gate seems to surge (opens and closes) when boost is starting to build. It does this full or part throttle with really low boost, normally between 0 and 3 PSI, sometimes more. I'm baffled as to...

    Wiring Factory Ignitor Into Ignition Bypass Plug

    My AEM C2DI decided it didn't want to work anymore. The C2DI was wired in without the factory Ignitor causing the car not to run when using the bypass plug. In order to fix this I decided to wire the Ignitor into the bypass plug.It was pretty simple if you know how to solder and crimp...

    2G Control Arm ID

    Well I had thought that you could tell by looking to see whether the stamped number faced the front of the vehicle when on the car or not. But I pulled a used one off a car in a junkyard that was a recall replacement and its stamping didn't face the front. I hadn't noticed any others being...

    2G halfshaft bracket year differences / AC mount

    The 547 will not bolt to the side of the block; the bolt holes will not line up.You sure you have the correct axle? Other thought could be that the car's suspension is to low or high?Just incase you missed my post. The 1g shaft appears to be the exact same as a 95-96 shaft. The length...

    IC's...Air/Air or Air/Water? [Merged 7-7] intercooler liquid

    What about exposure time?What I mean is how long it actually takes the water or air to cool the opposite medium by a degree. I would think that would be important yes/no?Sorry I missread the original post. Thought it said something else.

    2G halfshaft bracket year differences / AC mount

    I'm thinking its either from an automatic or a V6. I completely forgot to look last time I was at the junkyard.FWD eclipses have a longer axle with no half shaft.Nobody has an auto AWD that could chime in on this??

    [RESOLVED] What Happened???

    Provided you didn't change anything else that would affect the cars idle; a bad isc would be the first thing I would look into for idle issues. But I guess it couldn't hurt to do a compression test just to see if for some reason the extra boost put a hurting on the motor.But now that I see...

    [RESOLVED] Crank won't turn, cylinder wall rust / rusty

    Ok given this info I would say that because its an interceptor motor the crank should only turn until the piston hits whatever valves are open.You may have to take the cams off to allow the motor to spin to wherever you are trying to get it to go. Or if your crafty you can put the timing...

    IC's...Air/Air or Air/Water? [Merged 7-7] intercooler liquid

    If you reread my post I was referring to the water beeing cooled by the air flowing over the heat exchanger. Not that I can make a great arguement to support my belief. Maybe someone else can?If my memory serves me right the cooling properties of air to water is 4:1. It takes 4 times more...

    Couldn't agree more. I've had one on my car for a few years with no complaints. :thumb: Well except that it will freeze in the winter if you don't mix it with radiator fluid. Don't wanna crack anything.You are correct if there is air in the system its performance will lack big time. The...

    2G halfshaft bracket year differences / AC mount

    I believe the intermediate shafts are the same from 90 to 96.I have a 95 and a 90 that I compared the other day and they looked identical. I didn't take any measurements but figured I didn't need to. My 97 axle slide onto the shaft and the length and location of the mount looked correct...

    oil pump removal

    Sounds more like an oil pump failure when you put it like that. :)

    oil pump removal

    You sure its the oil pump?I mean they don't really just go bad. By "just go bad" I mean all of the sudden stop flowing oil. Its a set of gears that would wear over time and the pressure would slowly diminish.Just trying to save you a headache if possible.

    Best flow: Tubular or Cast manifold?

    The equal length definately does.I just switched from a SFP short route that I had on the car for a few years to a DNP equal length. The turbo seemed so much more responsive while driving the car around town. Logs have shown a 2-300 rpm difference in spool with my T4 PT61. The logs also...

    PWM Modulated EBC (Electrical Engineering content)

    Thats interesting we played with leds and 555's in pretty much the same manner in an electronics class I took.Seems like it would work provided you interact with the MBC correctly. I dunno how failsafe they are. It would suck to ruin a few valves just to design something that you could...

    2G Control Arm ID

    Well that sucks I was hoping it was a left side arm.Anyone else have input on this?Its definately not obvious looking at the bushings or whatever on the arm. There is no offset on the subframe side. Or the shock mount.I guess I will just swap the boot and hope the joint itself...

    2G Control Arm ID

    Ok so the bushing on my lower lateral control arm cracked open again. They have already been replaced by the dealer so I'm assuming I can't go get another set for free.I have a fairly new one sitting in my garage that I can't for the life of me figure out if it is a left or right arm...

    1G Electric power steering pump options

    From looking at the video that the seller has on his ebay page it looks like the pump controls the amount of pressure itself. It shoots from 200 psi to 1200 psi when the wheel is turned. Some kind of load detection must be built into the pump. If thats the case I don't think it is a good idea...

    Solid tensioner

    I don't understand this train of thought. I don't see how the stock tensioner would be capable of compressing and decompressing fast enough to compensate for tension differences while revving a motor. If you stick it in a vise and smush a given tensioner it takes forever to get it to move and...

    2G halfshaft bracket year differences / AC mount

    That is correct. Hum. Maybe the bearing has slid off the shaft some causing the bracket to sit further from the tranny? Does it look like that is possible?

    Did you measure the blade or the IM said? Normally the intake side is the same size as the blade. But the outer side doesn't have to be.Heres another option similar to what you said as far as the bracketry.Its from a 5.0 explorer/mountaineer, its blade is 65mm, and the clamp on side is...

    [RESOLVED] EGT acting wacky after battery relocation

    It's possible but not guaranteed. Only reason I would reccommend checking all of these things first is because you said it worked before doing the relocation. You didn't by chance jump positive to ground on accident when taking the cables off or on did you? It's possible you could have fried...

    Oiling problem?

    Oiling problem?
