The alarm has been completely removed, I've tried several of the no start issue post, but it seems everything that they say to test comes back fine. But if I remove and inspect the ecu, reassemble ecu, and plug it back in it starts for some reason. I don't understand why. This has happened Twice...

WTFOK lets start with a little back ground I picked up a 95 tsi last year that was desperately in need of a remodel car ran and drove. So I started the remodel put all new suspension bushing front and rear, new drive line bushings front to rear, died all interior black put a new 99 eclipse front...

I'll try to post a video of the sound I'm hereing later today, also just replaced plug about 10 miles ago gap to .28, but will regap to .25 today

Does anybody have any idea, any input would be nice.1g bov opens under no load reving car, but i'm getting compressor surge like crazy when it makes boost. It's a big 16g. I have tryed 3 differant wastegateshere's another log from today

My car was running fine just the other day, but now when it starts making boost it fall on its face boost maxes out like 30+ if full throttle, and timing gets pulled completely -10.1. I've done a boost leak test, fixed a couple leaks, rebuilt throttle body, and replaced all vacuum line, and...

Thank you for the piece of mind, I just haven't seen the inside of the tank yet so i didn't know if anything would prevent an easy repair.

So I went to pull my pump out of my 91 GSX and my studs that the sending unit bolts down on are rusty, bad rusty, I sprayed them with PB blaster but I've had 2 break off so I stopped. So my question is, is it possible to replace the studs, or thread the tank to accept bolt, I don't want to...

How bad was the 2g throttle body leaking, also have you check to see if the throttle blade on the 1g throttle body might have been installed upside down, ask because the edge of the blade is angled slightly and if up side down it might not be sealing properly.

You definitely get what you pay for, but on a side note companies like Spec clutches started an ebay store.

If it was idling steady at 750 rpms with the old injectors but now its higher after the 450 injectors were installed could you possible have some leaks at the injector seal in the intake manifold, any extra air after the maf could cause idle issues.

+1 on code determination before explorationYou said it has 10k on motor was a new oil pump apart of that rebuild?

Have you disassembled it already to see if it might just be o rings, or any generic style seal that could be found at a auto parts store?

If the relays clicking i'd check the wire from the relay to the starter.

I'd start with the small wire going to the starter to see if its loose or has a partial break, never herd of a relay going out either they work or don't, worst case ignition switch.

Did you spray it with soapy water to determine 100% where its coming from??

how long have you had it they show a 2 year warranty on there site.

You could grind off any burrs or raise that it has caused to the gasket as long as it doesn't effect the rubber part, clean everything real good and put a small amount of rtv on both sides of the housing where the gasket goes and try that should seal.

There should be zero air leaks.

Now lower it tint the windows and paint it flat black (it's not primer , it's flat black) lol

+1 for rod knock

Did you leak test at the turbo with the throttle body open or close?

Supra smic, evo injectors, and 2g maf

Did you use a gasket or gasket maker during the pan swap. If you used gasket maker to generously then some could have flowed inside the pan came loose and finally made it's way to the oil pickup causing blockage, in turn causing low oil pressure. As far as the oil on the dipstick if it's fresh...

stm has a decent deal on there'sSTM: OEM EXHAUST MANIFOLD STUD AND NUT KIT | 90-94 DSM | 95-99 DSM | EVO VIII-IX

Punishment racing, godspeed project, and CX racing are all the same kit, you can get them on ebay normally for $350 turbo to throttle body plus Greddy rs knock off.

Build a boost leak tester, they come in handy, and you can build one for under $10.00.

Those are some good starter upgrades, but whats the future plans for the talon.

If nothing else at least buy a wideband before messing with your current boost setting, no two cars are the same, also check and make 100% sure your knock sensor is good, if not and you car gets knock you could melt a piston or a valve. Then get a safc2 and read up on how to tune with it. I have...

if you left the belt off then you now have only one of the two balance shafts spinning and wasting oil pressure on the one that's not. do a delete before you fry your bearing from the unbalanced balance shafts you currently have.read this...

On the fuel issue, does it have an aftermarket pump by chance? I've seen people swap pumps and not get the line from the pump itself to the sending unit tight enough and once pressure was applies and removed it would bleed off. If you have less than a half tank you could cycle the key on and...

Does it not start mainly after setting for a couple hours, but start right up after a couple of minutes of setting if so pull you vacuum line on you fpr and see if there's fuel in it. Could be loosing fuel pressure in system due to faulty fpr, and its just priming the system when your cranking it.

Anymore info on how it hesitates? I Does it fill like it's fighting it's self, still picking up speed just not as fast, or does it nose dive like you threw out a boat anchor? Sounds like an ark in the ignition system, how old are the wires and coil?

should have removed turbine housing, metal shavings kill seals.

Yes it would help alot, most creep is due to flow issues in the exhaust, along with a small waste gate opening, and a actuator that only open about 1/3 what it should. If you could get your hands on a Holset actuator and a spare 14b or 16g actuator you could save you some time pulling and...

Check your coil and plug wires to make sure there not arking, mine did about the same thing it would pull for a second then break up real bad then finally pull threw it. Every thing read fine on my dsmlink, so i was under the hood one day with it running and i could hear the coil arking, so i...

Sounds like creep, my car does the same thing. Id start with a boost leak test, and shop around for a Holset waste gate actuator. The Holset actuator has a longer throw and will allow the internal wg flap to open more to regulate boost, also it has a stiffer inner spring that will keep you boost...
