I'm thinking that what I remember is that 350hp on the 16g is pushing it's upper limits. I think it's possible but not easy or efficient. It has to be a near perfect setup and tune if I remember correctly. I'm also pretty sure 15psi on the 16g wont make 350hp.
I think what most folk would...
I remember when the real story came out, there was some controversy over her faking or not.....

Have it towed to AutoZone or something like that. They'll check the battery, alternator, and pull any check engine error codes you have for free. If nothing else, you'll at least know that it's not the battery or the alternator!
ahh, come on...Just because we'll never have them doesn't mean they're not awesome. Supercars are fun to look at and read about...at least i think so. It's not like I was trying to sell the car to anyone. It's just cool
Pagani unveils the gullwinged Huayra - BBC Top Gear"The Huayra, pronounced h-wire-a, is only the second model to emerge from Pagani, and features a twin-turbo 6.0-litre AMG V12 producing 730bhp and 811lb ft of torque.""The suspension is a race-type pushrod setup, with adjustable Ohlins...
This was your initial comment about the intercoolerYou said this a bit laterI'm saying I don't think it will, i don't think it'll do squat on a NA car. In theory it sounds pretty good I suppose, but air-air intercoolers just aren't that awesomeIf the air getting into the intake from...
you were saying you were comparing the temperatures with the intercooler to that from a cold air intake. Cold air intakes bring in air from outside of the under hood area of the car. That's what I was referring to as ambient air.I'm seriously doubtful that an air-air intercooler made any...
I understand. And again, intercoolers aren't 100% efficient. They don't bring intake temperatures back down to ambient. They can't even get air back down to underhood air heat levels. The point of a intercooler is bring the temperature of the super-heated compressed air from a turbo down some...
And just how would they have became slightly cooler???The air inlet temperatures from near the manifold aren't that much greater than with a CAI setup, anyhow. That's the reason you recorded slight higher temps with the intercooler setup, not because the intercooler actually worked.What you...
Eh, i dunno, they were probably slightly higher on the intercooler setup because the under hood intake temperatures where slightly higher than the CAI intake temperatures. That makes more sense to me. I doubt that the intercooler took a much higher under hood air temperature and dropped it back...
I think you have an interesting theory there with the intercooler thing, but i really don't think an intercooler on a NA would make any difference in practice. Mostly because they're not 100% efficient in dropping intake temps back down to ambient. I doubt it would do squat to lower the air from...
I have never heard of this. I don't see how a traditional intercooler would make any difference with hydrolocking. I've also never heard of an intercooler being of any use on a non-boosted vehicle. Can someone fill me in?
JDM=parts made specifically for cars in the Japanese auto marketParts that come out of Japan that are made for anything other than a car that meant to be sold and driven in Japan.....isn't a real JDM auto part. It's just some bull crap to get people to buy junk
Rice=anything done to a car to make it appear/sound faster without actually making it fasterThere is a difference between looking faster and looking nice. What looks nice to one person isn't always going to look nice to everyone else though! I think it's safe to say most folk would consider...
eh, i dunno about leaps and bounds in every way. EVOs are more reliable and newer/nicer than DSMs, but they're pretty similar....they had 4g63s for the longest time until recently. They're not THAT much better. EVO cost a bit more, and they're a bit better in most ways.
I'm not a 420a man, but I have some ideas anyhow. Getting some upgraded valves, valve springs, and head gasket while you're into the head sounds like a good idea to me. Couldn't hurt! I would guess that you could probably build your own turbo kit with used parts, or find an entry level kit for...
wow. really? I thought this was a pro-dsm forum.I don't want another one because I think they're reliable, or a great value. I want another one because I've missed my old one so bad for years, loved that car! DSM's are the only cars I know inside and out, they're fun, just awesome cars in...
What do you guys think about this ebay listing, Mitsubishi : Eclipse - eBay (item 220722142769 end time Jan-15-11 11:31:57 PST) ? I'm seriously considering putting some bids down on this thing, getting back into the DSM game. Think it's a good deal? Is it just me, or do some of the pictures show...
I say, if it works as well as the real thing, sounds like the real thing, and looks like the real thing....might as well save the money and get it. It's not like it's a wrist watch, or something fancy, it's just a BOV
How is the car driving? This happened to me once, but it was because the waste-gate had become stuck open. It's probably either that or it's kinked, if the gauge did previously work.
I'd spend a lot of that on maintenance, timing belt, fluids and such. Get a way to control boost and a way to see the level of boost, get a new high flow air filter (cheap as hell), and a BOV. Skip out on some of those other engine mods, and get some good tires for that thing. Since it's FWD...
hey all, ive been wondering about this for a while. Under my gas pedal, under the carpet and stuff, i think its under the carpet anyway i wouldnt know cause i dont have a carpet or floor mats. Under my gas pedal theres this little rubbery block thingy with a red screw or somthing inside it, WTF...
hey, i was helping my friend change his spark plugs today and found oil all in his #1 spark plug well and all over his spark plug(ALOT)lol. He got NGK iridium IX ones to put in it. he drives a 96 GS, so thats a 420a. We ended up not changing the plugs cause he figured oil messes up spark...
hey all
I was wondering what the RPM limitations are on a 2g and 1g 4g63 turbo. Is the 7000 rpm redline on the 2g acurate or is it really 7500 or something? I know that with t-25 the boost falls off a like 6000, is this the case with a 13g also(havnt got my gauge instaled yet)? What holds the...
Im droping my tranny and was doing fine untill i get to the speed sensor. I cant get that dang thing off, i tryed pulling on the red/brown part, then tryed pulling on the black part, then tryed pulling the on the entire thing, then i tryed to take out this 10mm bolt right down beside it and then...
haha yeah..i figured that out lol
I talked to the reserve guy again today for a while and got some more details on everything now im leaning towards the reserve again.....this weekend i gotta figure out what one i wanna do....the reserve guy gave a me a paper with a the MOS openings in the...
ive talked to a army national guard guy based out of my current college....it sounds better then the army reserves and it has a good progam involved with ROTC at my college. I might just do national guard.....as a truck driver i would get the 10g bonus and 600 a month...1000 after ROTC....The...
yeah they just told me about 50 miles out but i dont really wanna have to drive to far for my drill time and all that, i might ask him whats available a little further out though just to see.
The only branch ive looked at so far is the army reserves, im gonna try and see what the other banches can offer me money, benefit and job wise before i sign up.I like the army so far because i can make a clean 16grand in my pocket and be back before january if i start in 3 weeks and been...
wweellppp i could be wrong then haha. ill go ahead and bow out before i make a fool of myself lol. perhaps the turbo i had was somehow different, had a different spring or something i dunno.
Well ill just take your word for it, but i might swing by the store and grad that issue just to get more of the details.So now what it sounds like is the better head and intake is more determined by the drivers application.
some of this isnt correcta 2gen is 210@6000
as for a 1st gen im not sure but i know its the same or higherthe 14b turbo 1st gens are running less boost then the 13g turbo 1st gens from the factory
a 13g is set for a bout 10-11ish psi, a 14b is for 7-8ish psi
I should have stated this...
