No damnit, the rear o2 doesn't change fuel trims. Why can't anyone just answer his simple question?

Pictures, sketches, plans, anything?

I would love a write-up as well.One more question, did you leave your door tumber/key locking apparatus in place? If not, what will you do if your battery dies?

Very cool, I wish I had the resources to fab my own vehicle.

I can't really answer either question, but I can apply some logic. The transmission is a crap-shoot, I have no idea what transmission you have. The ECU, the stocker would probably work assuming your cam sensor doesn't have to be changed. Ideally you'd swing for a Evo 8/9 ECU anyway for the...

Exponentially more complicated than my setup, but VERY cool, kudos. What did you do to bypass the steering wheel lock?

By "tacks" you mean "bounces off the rev limiter", I don't know where you got the term "tacks".. Anyway, it sounds like you're having either a TCU problem, or a trans pressure problem. I remember seeing a few of your threads with trans problems. If I remember right, it was recently rebuilt...

When they change they Evo they change the number, from Evo 1-10, current being 10. Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia You need your parts from the more recent Evos because they had the backwards engine like your car has (compared to a DSM).

It's an FTDI cable, so you need FTDI drivers. Again, if you install ECUFlash you should be fine. Reading the threads on logging/tuning/H8 here is probably a good idea too.

My google-fu (and some threads on this site) suggests the G4CP is the same block as the 4G63.See: head swapLike I said though, your engine is backwards from a DSM 4G63, you'd have to use an Evo 4-9 4G63.

I'm not super familiar with your particular car, is your timing belt on the driver or passenger side?Edit: Some google-fu shows it's on the passenger side - which makes sense. You can't use a 2G DSM head, but you should be able to use an Evo 4-9 head. You'll still likely have brittle...

Yes, as long as your FTDI drivers are good (install ECUFlash for them) the cable will work.

This is a terrible idea.

If only there was a thread for this.. A thread I may have just linked the other day to another probie...http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/newbie-forum/57878-what-turbo-merged-turbo-id.html

When I had one gauge I ran it to the cigarette lighter.When I have 2 dual gauges and a wideband controller, I run a dedicated wire from the battery or steal a slot in the fuse box.

What did you do about the rotor's stud holes being larger than the wheel studs?

You just went from a Small 16G to a Big 16G? :hmm:

I'd still recommend a H8/Evo 8 ECU over an SAFC. It won't be much more, and is infintely more capable.

Chances are the hollow stud if just loose so your filter keeps backing off.

Stock would be ideal, especially if you want it quiet. 2.5" is the largest I'd go, but I'm all about using the smallest quietest exhaust possible.A lot of people here will blindly say 3". Some will argue that if you go 3" now you're good in case you want more power later. Some will say...

Have you been through Terry's Talon Troubleshooting Guide? Are you reading off a wideband?

You don't even know what part I'm having made.. Anyway, when I talked to him forever ago he'd mentioned working on the ability to adjust line pressure, no news on that yet.

Did you swap your firing order? What did your AFRs look like? Why aren't they logged? Is your MAP formula in EvoScan correct? Bad MAF scalings will cause all kinds of garbage..

Uh, do you have the same TCU and solenoid setup as the 4G63 guys? Also, you can switch it off, but you lose control over everything, and you have to turn the car off and back on before the TCU will take over.

Do you have any pictures of how you set up your oil cooler lines? Did you end up using banjo bolts? Have you measured oil pressure at the cooler as well to see how much of a restriction the banjo bolts are (if you're using them)?

With the box you must press a button to shift.

You're ####ing kidding, right?

No, not Tim. But Tim did get back to me, it's not possible with the current box.

When I get it all built I'll post a thread for it, but that's waiting on a certain member to craft me some certain pieces..

Genius plan.

The lexan ones I've seen always yellow very quickly. I have a sheet metal one from dsmgraveyard, I don't like having all that crap visible, it's messy. When the time comes I'm even going to order a set of the OE plug wire clips that keep them all straight under the cover, assuming they're...

It does, my post is about about interrupting that function with a hobbs switch because on decel, like downshifting into a corner, you don't want full line pressure, especially if you have to dip to first. I'm talking with Tim now about it.

I strongly suggest the gloves.. You'll have to try a few before you find some that won't break every time a gentle breeze crosses your hands. You may want the grease now, but that shit doesn't come off after a single washing, or even after a few days sometimes.I actually order my gloves...

Spark Plug (Valley) Cover. Many companies make them, you can get OEM from any dealership or JNZ.

Enjoy that jail time.

Assuming your temps are right, it's likely you have an issue with your OEM oil cooler. Going oil/air is ideal in my opinion (as long as you do it right) but for most cars the OEM should handle everything just fine.

How much boost? Different fuel pumps have different flow maps, and just because it flows x at 43 PSI doesn't mean it'll keep up with a competitor at 73 PSI.

I should specify that I was talking about going in and working for free with no intention of actually getting hired. If you're seeking a career in this field, by all means MrBoxx has the way to go, networking and all. That said, I've been offered a job a few times. As it is now I go in when I...

What you need to consider is as the temperature rises viscosity changes. Your oil's advertised viscosity should be the rating at certain temperatures. When you go beyond the range of those temperatures, you're venturing into unknown viscosity. I want to say the lower number is measured at...
