ya the middle is perforated on all 4 seats. bottom and back.

By searching on here, I'm told no such thing exists. Yet these aren't charcoal, and they are eclipse not talon seats. If they were recovered which would explain the 'eclipse' embroidered on them then that still doesn't explain the matching black plastic bits around the bottom. What do I have...

Posted a blown 2600 some pages back. Now had a 2600 unsprung 6-puck in a totally different car. ~2500 miles on it. Still measures 8mm thickness which is stock. Pulled the tranny because I want a built one but since it was out pulled the clutch. No failure but I'm not sure the corner of the...

Not looking for pity and you have added nothing so don't waste time posting in this thread. I've read all the threads way back. I've had a holset before half of them existed. At the time the very same people who are posting in this thread said it was ok to run the turbo off the head if you...

what size restrictor. you can imagine i have a hard time trusting any restrictor at this point if we go with oil starvation as the cause even if the OFH is a few PSI higher then the head that had no restrictor and still starvedHow does a big FP green which is also a journal bearing turbo get...

I have an aftermarket analog 0-100psi guage mounted to the filter housing. So if when warmed up and I boost it and this never goes above 70 do I still need a restrictor?

Isn't almost ever turbo failure because metal contacts metal which is going to leave heat marks. At that point it is lack of oil between parts. How is a turbo that is out of balance and then makes contact going to look any different then one that breaks and oil slinger and makes contact to one...

So why is the other side not burnt. One side got oil and the other didn't?Also lack of oil? So the solution is to run it off the filter housing or??

Went down there to drop off a part so first time I saw the pieces since disassembly. For right now I have a cell phone video Think it is the oil slinger that broke in to 3 pieces not the thrust bearing. I got a pic of the thrust bearing in this vid. I had a pic of the part broke in to 3 pieces...

The outer two mainifold bolt holes are the same size as the rest, vs bigger. I believe that makes it an early 1g headactually he said it would blow oil out the seals.While that's not a good thing and it will smoke a lot does it actually make the turbo fail due to lack of oil?

are you illiterate or just insistent on posting blantent lies. in THIS VERY THREAD on the previous page i said and I am doing the third, head/no BS and yet you talk about the oil filter housing like it's fact. Neither turbo was ever ran off the oil filter housing. Maybe it should be. Of course...

Excuse my dsl connection for being on this site all night and not responding to your post while i was asleep yet was 'online' :rolleyes:Way to take something completely out of context.The VERY first part of that says"Last idiot ran a homemade oil line on the turbo(read I tried to...

I think if a turbo fails people have a right to know so they can make an informed decision. If there is a better forum then the turbo forum for that please move the thread and I am sorry for posting in the wrong forum.If you just cleaned it up to protect vendors like calan from showing their...

it's not like that but no matter what it's like it's a no win. Even you have changed from the head to the housing crowd overtime. Feed it off the filter housing someone will say you're running to high a PSI. Feed it off the head your not running enough PSI Remove the balance shafts and run if...

I don't claim to be an expert. I gave everyone a name an a number. At this point you can A)talk out your ass because no part ever fails and you obviously know the whole story based on your speculation B)pick up the phone and speak to someone who knows more about them then me.I believe he said...

WTF are you even rambling on about. It came brand new from holset. If they aren't balancing it where do you think it will get balanced? The post office?He's been doing this longer then you've been alive. I'd be happy if you two could come up with another explination.I'd love for it...

When my first hx40 went I was told it was out of balance. I got it from a previous owner so not knowing the history I couldn't really say whose fault that might have been. Bought a brand new one straight from holset and put it on. POS is out of balance too and fragged. I will never recommend...

ok somehow i got it to start and run today. I'd rev it to 4K and it would sputter around there and the tach would snap to 2k and bounce back and fourth. Can the coil pack make it read half if it's bad or is it soley driven off the power transistor? Drove it down the road and it sputtered the...

Was out driving it hard tuning it and it died while driving. Restarted it and it ran for another minute and died again. Restarted it a few more times and it drove for a few seconds and died. Left it along the road and walked home to get something to tow it. Came back and decided to start it...

Screw the bosch 1600's. Sure they used to be the only choice but I just run FIC bluemax injectors on AEM.

actually it was completely empty from a leaky valve stem there on the fender. So ya it was getting a recharge but at that point it had maybe 1 can and wasn't cold inside or anything.Got a new line. Also put in a new expansion valve although I really don't have any reason to believe the old...

Right on the driver fender by the schrader valve where it goes from metal to rubber the rubber swelled up and popped! So the line was hot before this and the compressor had to be working to do this. Does the a/c cycle from this side to the front and then back around on the driver side or the...

it's in my car so I can't just turn it around. It has the 3 equally spaced tstat holes so it should be a 1g.

my keys got locked in my talon about a month ago and I came here actually to see what to do. I really doubt a car theif is learning something they don't already know. Not to mention for a car theif to open ANY car it's break window, open. ROFL Not some long drawn out attention getting...

I used a cheap ebay header too and it fit with no spacers, but I'd just get slammed again for posting it so let them buy their $700 manifolds.

Alright I feel retarded but looking at google images I noticed something. My head isn't the original. I figured my head was an early 1g because the 2 end studs on the exhaust manifold are the same size as the rest. Ok no problem. Then I found this picMy head has the flat part between...

mined worked fine until a cold night at 22psi. ROFL So a little less then that.

93 tranny is still sitting in the shed in a box 4 years later ROFL Only used the center diff and 5th gear off it. The shift forks in the 93 rode on all 3 shafts and only 2 in the 92. But I remember not even being able to swap out forks because the fork sliders were a different width so the...

I let them dyno tune the piss out of mine on the stock tranny so if it broke I wouldn't be out a lot of money.Another guy came in with a built tranny and stripped 4th gear on the second pull.

hope these links work. Anyway these are some older pics. From the external there is a pipe that goes down to blow exhaust out under the car but it wasn't hooked up in these pics.

yeah but the 3 on the bottom are the only ones that long. Two on the top are short.neither 14mmMy a/c has 4 bolts going straight in to the back of the block that are all there. Is there another one that I should be looking for on it that would have a nut on the end?

Looked at the Tcase and it has the long 3 bolts across the bottom.

this board seems to block big pics but it's here if you can't see it http://img139.imageshack.us/img139/1174/imgp3348.jpg It's 145mm long M10x1.25It came out on the dyno and was found under the car :ohdamn: If it hit a spinning roller when it fell that could have flung it from lots of places.

In the truest spirit of bolt on tech. Motor mounts still have thier bolts and the Tcase doesn't have a nut on the end. So what might this have fallen out of.

ROFL ya that's what I got out of it too.HP is HP and extra air is extra air. The nitrous is cold though, it's going to add even more HP then the shot when combined with the cooling effects it will have on the turbo's air. I say go with the 16g just because the bottle runs out, but this...

I wanted to compile a list of known working manifolds for the hx35 hx40 and similiar turbos since a lot end up hitting the water pipe and such.List your exhaust manifold, what turbo housing your using with it and if you're using any spacers and what kind of clearance you have. I'll go first...

I ran 27psi on my fp green with nothing more then 93 octane on 650's.Don't try this at home kids.

The LS1 owners(hey that's me) are smart enough to tell other LS1 owners not to remove the screens because it messes with the calibration. So now you're taking a device that's needs to have screens on it's intended NA application, removing those screens, installing it on a pressurized blow...

anyone have a part number for the transfer case seals. I can't find it on any parts store sites and they keep looking up an output shaft seal which is the one that goes in the transmission not the transfer case. They can't comprehend a transfer case on a transverse mounted engine when I try to...

Haven't even launched this one hard yet. It's still on the stock center diff and the AEM is untuned so it just runs rich all the way to 30psi.Once it gets tuned I'll quit being easy on it though. :shhh:I wouldn't have even found this if the transfer case hadn't been leaking so I pulled...

hmmm

the obdI ECM in my camaro didn't either and no one thought it could be done 10 years ago and at the time the only thing to do was take the prom out and flash it. Then moates and other people came along and plugged in flash chips you can read/write on the fly while driving. It's 10x harder to...

back on page 1 I was going to say this, then i read it and was going to say this is the smartest thing said in this thread and why people insist on riggin up a much more complicated inline or dual tank setup over this I don't know.but then I read this and you don't like it, so I'm just...

I run a single boosted 255 and 1450cc injectors on e85 with 2.3L on a hx40 at 30 psi and can bury my AEM windeband at 10:1 afr(the richest it will read)now whats all this talk about formulas and bosch 044's my car couldn't hear over the turbo whine...

actually most all of them(at least on here are oil cooled only)Anyway their still debating all these things in the other threads but I talked to the guy again today and I'm satisfied my setup is fine. I probably annoyed him asking him repeatedly.The one thing he said will cause them to...

yeah for $200 from china all day ROFL

i want to say 8.3L cummins

My hx40 is out of balance and went to hell because of it (I'll just ignore the fact two people on the boards owned it prior)I found a local guy here who rebuilds them and has been doing it for 30+ years. You'd be jealous of all the turbo cores he has piled around.Anyway feel free to take...

assuming the same hx40 both times. what changed to cause the big power increase that is now held an extra 1000rpms.
