I am at a real crossroads right now and im not sure where to go. I have a good setup now (Laser RS-T and 2k Maxima 5spd) but with my promotion at my job I am really able to afford more of a car. I really like the E46 M3 and have the ability to afford a 2001-2003 if I sold th Laser and traded in...
I am having a hard time tuning my car, I just want my baseline settings until I can get my datalogger to work. and the car sputters when I mash the throttle and blows black smoke (rich). Any help?
Ok now that I have my afc installed correctly, I will be taking my car to the local shop where they are going to help me tune the afc. Before I do this I have a few questionsHow much boost should I tune for? Right now it is at about .7bar (10.15psi)What is the max boost my setup can...
In the install manual it says to connect the rpm wire to the 16pin clip on the ecu however it doesnt read accuratly at all. in the vfaq it states to connect it to the 4th wire from the left on the bottom of the 24 pin clip. when I did that the car wouldnt start (electric shut off). any ideas?
I just got my afc in the mail and I have a big problem, I have 2 and a half feet of wire and then it was clipped off. I know it came with a harness but where can I get one? can I splice the end of these wires into a harness?, has this ever been done?-Ken
So I have about 1000 on the rebuilt motor and I decide to stretch its legs a little. I do a couple of pulls and she pulls hard up to 5 and sputters over 5 and really struggles to go any higher than 6000. I have no idea what might be causing this. I know I need my afc to come and to tune it, but...
I put a mbc on today and it didnt work at all. One side went to the T fitting I made on the line from the bov to the intake mani, and the bottom of the mbc to the wastegate. I tried to ductape the hose end on the outlet from the turbo because it was then exposed. I have the screw all the way...
So I have about 500 miles on the new motor and I was thinking about turning the boost up a little when it hits 1000. I am familiar with the usual boost procedures with stock fuel system and the 14b. But my cars has a B16g and a walbro255. I ordered a S-afc and a Hallman pro (550s, fpr, and...
I just passed the 300 mile mark on the break in and I took it on the highway to do some light pulls. I had it in 4th and got it up to about 3500 rpm and when I let off the gas I had a lot of black and grey smoke come out of the tailpipe. im only running about 7psi. Is this because my rings...
So I'm driving my car aound today and I notice when I go around left turns my clutch loses pressure, like almost to the floor but then straightens out. Now this is a telltale sign of crankwalk, but I have a 92 and its not too common. I was told when I bought the car it was a six bolt and the...
My 1g I just bought has about 250 miles on the rebuilt motor. The guy I got it from told me to give it about 1000 to break in before raising the boost. As of right now there is no BC on the car, just a bypass to the wastgate so it only hits 7psi. Is this safe to run until it breaks in and I get...
Ok, so after a while of looking around and making offers, I just got my hands on a 92 Laser RS Turbo. The car is clean with new paint (not the best job but decent), rebuilt motor and transmission, Big 16g with a walbro 255 (the boost is at 7psi for the break in period and until I get some...
I looked at a 98 GS-T with 101k on the clock, Apexi exhaust, intake system, and a BOV that doesnt recirculate (which he said has about 500 miles on it). He was asking $7500 and I have him down to $5500. The clutch doesnt have pressure until about half the way to the floor (might be the slave)...

here's th deal...i will eventually upgrade to a 16G or 19C turbo in the future, i am just unsure if it is a good idea to port the 14b, how much of a difference does it make on a turbo that size and how much would it cost to get done...having the shop do all of the work...taking it out etc...
