    Methed-up Eclipse

    Dear Diary,It's been about a year since I updated this, but I haven't made enough progress to feel like I needed to update this. Let's get caught back up to speed.The radiator has been replaced with the Mishimoto aluminum radiator, along with an aluminum coolant overflow tank, since I didn't...

    You were 100% correct and I owe you an ice cream cone. Thank you so much man

    2G No Crank, No Start, No Accesories

    Here's two of the things that I'm not sure I reconnected correctly. I'm like 95% these are ground wires and should be grounded to the body.And I remember this being attached to the body, but I have no idea what this is.

    2G No Crank, No Start, No Accesories

    Could it maybe be some capacitor got too drained? I plugged all the anti theft stuff back in.

    2G No Crank, No Start, No Accesories

    Oh sorry, that was the goal, but I ended up back tracking since I think that changing it might take a little more time than I want to spend, since its been sitting for like 6 months and I dont want the fuel to varnish

    2G No Crank, No Start, No Accesories

    I've looked around a bit on the forums to try and find a solution to this, but I just get a lot of people having issues with cranking and starting exclusively. Mine is that everything electrical seems to be out.Backstory: I stored my car for the winter in my garage while I slowly amassed some...

    2G Which intercooler is best for me?

    Thanks man, I'll try and mount the turbo up this weekend, and then see what the move is from there. I got the VRSF for $400, so I can probably resell it for around that if necessary and fab a new pipe Mishimoto if I go that route, or get a couple bolts, a drill and use an angle grinder to trim...
  14. cornboy

    2G Which intercooler is best for me?

    I mean it should, but the piping didn't come with any of the bolts or couplers, so it's hard trying to figure out where it should go
  15. cornboy

    2G Which intercooler is best for me?

    I can try cleaning up the inside of the engine bay since its been very dirty since I bought it a year ago. The Mishimoto intercooler attaches with 2 bolts coming from the top, you can kinda see it in the pictures. But as for what is normal, I don't know as I am the 13th owner of this Eclipse and...

    2G Which intercooler is best for me?

    To keep it simple, I bought a VRSF 2G front mount intercooler kit from a user on here a while ago, but due to not having a compatible turbo, neglected putting it on. Now that I've tried, it looks to be significantly more work than I first thought.As this is going to be a street car, I don't...

    Do 2 turbos at the same PSI, in the same setup, make the same power?

    I am indeed planning on doing to supporting mods at a future date. The problem is that I need to do the other necessary maintenance in order to ensure everything is in good shape before making those mods and getting the car tuned.This is disingenuous I believe. If we talk about fluid flow...

    Do 2 turbos at the same PSI, in the same setup, make the same power?

    That actually clears up a lot. Thank you so much.

    Do 2 turbos at the same PSI, in the same setup, make the same power?

    To give background to the question in the title, I have a 1996 GSX with a stock T25 turbo, and a wacky as hell intercooler system.I'm pretty sure the turbo is going out, so I figured I'd replace it with a 14B. I ended up getting a VRSF front mount intercooler to make it all play nicely...

    General IAT vs MAT

    Okay thank you man, just trying to learn more.
  21. cornboy

    General IAT vs MAT

    But wouldn't a MAT sensor account for that anyway. It's not like a manifold is going to leak air out, so if you know the temperature and the pressure of the air directly before it goes in, and you know how quickly the valves are going to open, then you know how much air is going into the engine.
  22. cornboy

    General IAT vs MAT

    I had a bit of a one off question.Why do speed density setups use intake air temperature instead of manifold air temperature?Is it because it's just easier to install and use a IAT sensor than it is to place it in the manifold, or perhaps some engineering issue with early MAT setups that...

    2G No boost pressure, AFR issues

    I ended up going over all my hoses and found a small section of the stock hosing that wasn't sealed up properly so I fought to get it sealed up, got the blow off valve sealed off and ended up getting 7 psi and some compressor surge.I have a 16g coming in and will replace the intercooler piping...

    2G No boost pressure, AFR issues

    Hey,Just like the title suggests, I can't get my eclipse to get past atmospheric pressure (0psi of boost) and because of that my car is having a lot of AFR issues relating to that.I think it's either the blow off valve, a greddy type RS I bought from another forum member, or the intercooler...

    2G BOV Obtained, More Issues Arise

    Okay, so I didn't actually solve my problem with this. I'm still left with no idea what is causing my car to run so poorly and would love it if any of y'all could help me out with some knowledge.

    2G BOV Obtained, More Issues Arise

    I just wanna post this for posterity and say he was right. Decided to do one last look through and see if there was anything that might be out of place, and it had been a while. Checked the vacuum line that runs from the intake manifold to the boost gauge and the from the boost gauge to the fuel...

    2G Compression Numbers

    I'm not trying to make massive numbers, in fact right now I just want to get the car driving without weird issues. But if a 10psi difference is enough that like 7 pounds of boost is gonna f*** it up, I'll definitely take it to a shop.

    2G Compression Numbers

    Should I pull the engine and get it rebuilt?
  30. cornboy

    2G Compression Numbers

    Thanks man, I think I'll go ahead and do all the important maintenance stuff first and just keep using the block without rebuilding it. I'm not planning to make much more than 350 crank horsepower so it should be somewhat reasonable.
  31. cornboy

    2G Compression Numbers

    Fair, I just bought the car a few months ago and am in the middle of replacing the entire cooling system, so I can't exactly run the engine till it gets warm, but I'll definitely run it again once I get a new radiator and hoses.
  32. cornboy

    2G Compression Numbers

    Hey I'm sorry if this is a bit redundant but I wanted to get y'all's input on my eclipse.Trying to decide if I should have it rebuilt or not, ran a compression test (though it was cold) and got 185/170/180/160, apparently it's a 2.1 stroker with a 9:1 compression ratio.Is that 160psi...

    Methed-up Eclipse

    It's been a hot minute since I last updated, but not much happened. In order to fix the air fuel ratio nonsense that was killing my power, I ended up just removing the upper intercooler pipe and replacing it with the intake pipe, essentially making it naturally aspirated, but with the turbo...
  34. cornboy

    Methed-up Eclipse

    Both a lot and not a lot has happened. I was having an issue with my car running poorly after about 40mph, where it would either lean out, or become too rich. I re-ran the vacuum lines for the blow off valve and waste gate according to the diagrams listed here...

    That's the question I'm asking myself.
  37. cornboy

    2G BOV Obtained, More Issues Arise

    Update: I re-ran the vacuum line as per the diagrams Mello linked, the intake manifold directly to the BOV, and the compressor nipple directly to the waste gate actuator. However, the problem still occurs. I did decide to try and drive it on some nearby highways just to see if it could get up to...

    2G BOV Obtained, More Issues Arise

    Okay cool, thank you man. I'll get that done tomorrow and report on results tomorrow.
  39. cornboy

    2G BOV Obtained, More Issues Arise

    Because my engine temps aren't rising, and my wide band O2 sensor isn't showing that it's running lean
  40. cornboy

    2G BOV Obtained, More Issues Arise

    I would have thought that too if I had tuned the car in any way, or if it was running lean.
  41. cornboy

    2G BOV Obtained, More Issues Arise

    I was told I have aftermarket injectors, but considering I just bought this a month ago, I haven't had an opportunity to check, but I assume that it's the stock fuel system.Thank you, and especially thank you Mello for showing me where I can find that diagram. A lot of the vacuum lines have...

    2G BOV Obtained, More Issues Arise

    So in the span of time between this post and my last, I bought a Greddy Type RS off another forum member, I also bought an appropriate mount for it to be welded into my intercooler piping. I also bought vacuum hosing so I can actually use my wastegate, and my blow off valve.So the valve is...

    Methed-up Eclipse

    Brakes got put on, just normal Duralast brakes. Finally got the blow off valve installed, and hooked up. I'm pretty sure I have a boost leak somewhere, but for now I'm not having compressor surge.
  44. cornboy

    Methed-up Eclipse

    Finally got an intake filter and some new vacuum lines so the wastegate actually works. Now instead of fuel cutting at 4500rpm because I'm at 15psi of boost, I'm getting at maximum 5-6 psi of boost. Beyond that, I also ordered new brake rotors and pads cause the ones on it felt sloppy and...

    Methed-up Eclipse

    Took the car into the shop on Wednesday, just got it back today. I wouldn't say it runs like a dream, but it at least runs and drives. Decided I'd try my luck and take it for a drive around town and within about 30 minutes it started idling at 4000rpm and overheated. Got a friend to bring me...

    First week, there's an electrical short in the ignition system, which could be pretty much anything in the car minus the tailllights, so tomorrow I plan on replacing the ignition switch to see if that solves it and if not, just start f***ing around and pulling fuses. If my poor attempts at...
