So I'm working on a lower rebuild rods pump etc I got a brand new oil pump already. I wanna run something other then standard bearings. Not exactly over size or under size. More along the lines of a different compound bearing. I was told kings is a good brand to go with ? And to add to this post...
So I've been running a hood dump directly off the turbo for a good while now but now thinking about changing it up. Getting too hot to not be able to have both windows down. Having a hood dump the pass window gotta stay up sadly unless u like the smell of exhaust.. I was also thinking about just...
So I've been really debating on changing the valves back to the bc ones but the more I look at the head the more I dont want to... is it worth upgrading valves or keep stock ? What's the pros of changing them out and is there a easier way to take them out other then a hammer and extention lol....
I'm currently working on doing a full engine rebuild but I happen to come across a nitrous express system for a really good deal. Full system plus 2 full tanks ONLY 350$. Brand new in box. Well I never stepped into this world so it's all new to me... motor is boosted with built internals. Head >...
I've made a post about this before and it seemed to have went away but now randomly has arose again...Here is what it is doing, the car starts up just fine, good afr etc. Ill drive maybe 2 miles down the road casually driving not getting on it at all, and randomly the car will just loose...
Recently the eclipse been acting alot it would run just fine then randomly shut off and not start back up I let it sit and bam it fired up just fine. After running for a few it turns back off like u turbt they key back. Does this completely randomly. No warning nothing just shuts off. I figured...
I'm not 100% sure if I made a post about this yet but... so I have a 70mm turbo not sure rhe inches but I have a 70mm turbo with a coupler that is for 3.5 inner color pipe. Now that not matching the inlet of the turbo will that effect the spool ? I dont hear the bov when the pipe is on but when...
So after spending a couple 100$ on misc parts I ran into the same issue I been having. Finnaly decided to take the aem off and bam car is acting normal reving up and all not sputtering like it was with the aem... my first aem the map sensor inside of it went out. Now this one the aem fic 8 been...
So recently my car been building less and less boost and now im building about 7 psi of boost not even reving or even idling high ... just at a normal stand still im building boost. I have my wg set at 28 lbs which i was running fine but now. Its like im running a boosted car with out the ic...
The green white wire behind my radio hasn't been hooked up for the longest only cuz i ran a led strip for my cluster after the dimmer went out. My interior is gutted the only factory light is my cluster. Which I would like to get back... i wanna get rid of the led strip. There is a green white...
Not sure how to completely word this, but here we go. So when I very first built the car my blow off valve was stupid loud. And now I only really hear it when I get on it. I use to only build 13 lbs of boost on a 60mm turbo and full exhaust recirculating wg and open turbo inlet . Now im on a...
So I'm debating on going back to full exhaust, but only if imma really gain from it. I know a N.A. with a cut off exhaust looses alot of power, will I gain power going a 3.5 pipe all the way back ? Or will it not be any difference?
Lately my car been running really really Rich all of a sudden. Nothing has been changed about the car besides going back to 93 gas instead of E85, I dont see or hear any vacc leakes and the only check engine light I have now is for the ect sensor which was bad before this rich issue happen...
So I've been running E85 on my daily but had to run 93 the other day cuz I almost ran out of gas but it seems like my car acted more responsive. Car is internally fully built. I have a Walbro 255 upgraded lines, and I also have a hahn port fueler running stock injectors and the high flow...
So the other day I was driving my eclipse and out of no where the throttle seem to have gotten stuck or RPMS just rose on it own ? I would let go of the gas pedal and the rpms would ether rise 1k or stay at the rpms I was just at. It only does this randomly not all the time. Car starts fine...
So I came across a hahn fuel rail with the 4 matching injectors got it all installed and what not now, but I'm not sure how to wire it up. I dont wanna run all 8 injectors at once, I wanna run the Hahn to a switch so they will run when switched on, is this possible? The car I got it off just...
So this question is referring to another car here that I'm working on but cant figure it out, the main issue is the fact it will not go past 4,000 or maybe some time 5,000 rpms but when it does it will act fine. Had a TPS high input and faulty cell come up. I added a new tps to it and I know the...
So I have been running my aem on a tune for a couple 100 miles now and never had a issue since the tune. But yesterday I went and got my car washed like I do every week. But this time, something happen. The car has ZERO spark with the aem wired in. I always keep the jumper wire with me so I put...
I've tried asking other forums but no answer I bypassed my fuel relay which was pretty easy now can I by pass my ASD ? Trying to eliminate/shorten as many wires as I can. Is this possible?
Is there a for sure way to test bad turbo seals ? Whatever is wrong with the car is gradually getting worse... the car has maybeee 500 miles on a fresh full rebuild I cant say the valve seals are 100% new cuz they stayed on the head when I rebuild it. But the bottom end is 100% new, wiseco...
Alright, running out of time, I dont have time for this back and forth tune... what is the biggest straight to the point injector size on a stock ECU fully built stage 2 cams 8.8.1 pistons u name it its done, the tune is just killing me in my area. Car will run on stock Injectors, 255 pump and...
So, I've in all my 9 eclipses so car always have taken the timing cover off and I've never once had this problem to my altinator belt the first time snapped and ya took out my timing belt re did my valves and about 4 months later or so the belt didnt snap but stayed as a whole but wrapped its...

I went hunting and havnt seen it since shoulda left my key at home but it was my house key. House key is a easy replacement car not do much most of my car Is switch it button (fuel / starter) not my final turn of the key. (Acc) my car yes vin and all...
Ive had this car for about i dont know 4 years now and swapped 3 blocks since then and never have actually ran into a knock senor till this most recent block from a 95 motor, ive read that they shouldnt even start or they should go into limp mode? the first 2 years the car was boosted with a AEM...
So I guess AEM FIC isnt a big thing any more and I cant seem to find anyone to tune it... so what can I do till then ? It's a fully built engine. Some told me to get a fmu is that really worth getting ? And another side note with out having my aem I never had a knock sensor in this motor even...
Has anyone else ran into this problem ? immobilizer system malfunction is the code that comes up. The car is a 03 eclipse 2.4 I know your going to say post on a 3g form but me personally I don't like them there no help at all. But the code is the same for all them I guess, how do I fix this code ?

This should be a quick a easy forum I got everything taken apart and main seal out which was leaking oil bad just a fyi but I got everything taken apart now putting the rear main seal back in, I read it should be just above the surface and then I rear it should be just below the surface? Meaning...
Alright so I been looking into "decapping" injectors and so far everyone I seen do this hit almost 3x more improvement, has anyone else done this on stock 420A injectors? and what are stock injectors for 420A? every where I see yellow tops are evo 510cc? is that what I have in my car??? there...

So if anyone has done a wire tuck they ran into 2 plugs with alot of wires running to them but have caps in them, does anyone know what they are for ? And does anyone know if I can delete them or something with them ?
My compression for my 8.8.1 low comp 420a is
1-165

But after I stop cranking the pressure drops slowly and I smoke when I first start up.after sitting but when moves don' smoke at all and after I drive it a couple miles it won' smoke at all any more, I think that may be my oil...
Is there a upgraded vc gasket any where or is there something else I can do to prevent leaking from the front and back of the vc not so much on the sides though, I have the pvc to the intake deleted and welded shut along with the one to the intake tube deleted too, in replacement of the 2 I have...

So this just ran across my mind randomly at 5am so can I install a oil cooler in line from my turbo to my oil pan ?? Like go from my turbo return line to a oil cooler then to my oil pan ? I know it should go from my oil filter but the kit I got from my buddy didn't come with the part that the...
So for the most part my 420A is fully built I'm looking to get more bolt ons for it now, the bottom end is built and now after bending all my valves I'm getting a built head, I was told to get PT lash adjusters and rockers? I habe stock valves cuz I was told upgraded arnt much different. Now...
What would be a good upgrade for lifters and rockers I was told PT cruiers are a good upgrade for them but what is the best other then them? Rebuilding my head and wanna get new ones
I really dont know how to explain how this sound is but ummmmmmm maybe like a louder sparking sound like when you ark a plug test but alot louder any ways i hear that sound when driving and hitting max boost (8lbs) , it' fine building boost but when hitting max boost it starts to clap I guess...
So I had to removed my down pipe today for maintenance and I noticed I had a nice ammount of oil residue on the lower opening of the hot side of the turbo, does have alittle blueish white smoke at the start of idle, but any ways i do have 145-155 on a cold comp test so I don' think it's a engine...
Alright so the other day i finally got my car back on the road and drove it will say like 20 miles at the most car ran fine kept it out of boost due to no tune and stock ecu etc, got to the location just fine till i pulled intoo the store, car started to stutter bad like a mis fire but got it to...

So in addition to my previous post about driving the car with no fic connected right now, i got everything together and what not idles good high bu steady, it idles at 2k rpms which i assume is normal due to having a turbo on it, the car does have stock injectors and stock ecu thats about all...
