You will be fine with a rewired 190 walbro with a 16g at that boost level. If you plan on upgrading in the future you might as well put a 255 in it. As far as differences between the walbro hp and the regular one I don't know.

Is anyone running emanage ultimate? I just bought a 1g awd with the emanage not installed. Has anyone had good success with this? Or should I just sell it and go with dsmlink? Thanks

The car has been throwing the p0300 cel which is random engine mifire and has been bogging down big time and hard to accelerate with a bad idle. It will drive fine for about ten or so miles then start doing this. The air/fuel meter is stuck on lean at any rpm and will not cycle like normal. The...

The other day I was driving and the radio went out, power locks won't work, horn started going off, and the headlights stay on and won't turn off unless you disconnect them, and the interior lights don't work. This just happened yesterday and I blew the 60a fusible link. I replaced it and after...

Is there anything someone could put in your gas tank to screw your motor? I got a call from my girlfriend about ten minutes ago and said that someone busted her window and my car was next to it when it happened. I didn't see it when I left because it was dark. We were inside the house and...

I can happen modded or stock. Usually when the car has higher miles and if it hasn't happened it probably won't. Crankwalk isn't common as you think. I have a 97 gst with 101k miles on it. The motor went three months ago on the dyno. It spunt a rod bearing so I just replaced it with a built 7...

I installed the engine two weeks ago. So far no problems at all. The motor has 350 miles on it and I will check for crank play when I change the oil.

what i did when I installed my fmic is i mounted the bottle where the smic used to be. I just bolted the bracket into one of the holes that was used to bolt down the smic. Works pretty well, no problems

you should be able to do it with the 550s. If you want to make sure you have a little more room get the 650s.

Last weekend was the first time I have ever pulled an engine out of any car. I spun a rod bearing on the dyno a month ago. Just make sure you have all the tools that you will need like a engine stand and cherry picker. If you are good mechanically you'll be fine. Just stay organized, I like to...

change out your plugs unless you've already done that then detail the crap out of your engine bay (usually can spend a long time doing this). Run some sea foam through your motor also.

I would go with the hks 264/264 combo since the only turbo you might upgrade to is a 16g. The car will pretty much idle like stock.

you should easily get a 12.5 with that setup unless you have retarded tuning or a big boost leak. The evo 16g has gotten into the 11s

I bought this turbo to rebuild. I haven't received it yet, but here are some pics:http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290025886195&sspagename=ADME%3AB%3AEOIBSAA%3AUS%3A11

no, I'm sorry my digital camra is broken. Try it. It will work. THe hose is bendable plus it doesn't crimp up. Also if you like loud blow off valves it increased the sound going to it than the factory recirculation pipe.

I have a xs power fmic with short route piping. After trying to fabricate a pipe to recirculate I took a vaccum cleaner hose and used that. I've been running like that for a while now. No leaks or the hose blowing off. Its a cheap and easy fix. No one will even know unless you tell them.:)

yeah looks that way. He also removes the oil squirters and revises the block for better oil flow. I ended up ordering the 7 bolt with ross pistons, eagle rods, and acl rod bearings. My total price was $2700. Which was the same as all the qoutes I got local for a rebuild. When I do put the motor...

If you do the 1g bov I would go ahead and get a uicp with the 1g flange. You don't technically see any gains from the bov, but it doesn't leak like the 2g when you up the boost. You'll see a little bit with the uicp. My recommendations is to go wtih a pipe from dejonpowerhouse.com. I used their...

I've talked to him a few times about his motors. He uses a modified thrust bearing and nitrides the crank further than factory specs. If your looking for a 7 bolt motor he charges 1900 for a shortblock and 2800 for a long block with a three year warranty. I'm still deciding wheter to buy a 7...

you have to do some modding to get it to work in your car. There a crap load of threads on the issue. Here is a link to get you started: http://www.magnusmotorsports.com/tech/index.htm

a chance do a 6 bolt swap:) I'm doing that right now. I didn't crankwalk though, I spun a bearing.

i got the car home today and dropped the oil pan. I spun a freaking bearing. I'm pissed

anyone?

I had my car dynoed yesterday. We tuned it for 19psi, but it has a spike up to 23psi. A/F is 11.1. The car has a b16g, fmic, 550s, etc. When I pulled it off the dyno to leave the shop around 2,000 rpm I heard what sounded like loud lifter tap. I returned to the shop and they also thought...

The only way you'll see knock count is with a stand alone or dsmlink. With a logger you can see where your timing curve dips and that is more than likely knock. I'm using a logger and a safc combo. I dynoed my car last weekend. I got 297whp.

Yes you can use the 1g stock j pipe, you'll have to fab yourself a pipe from the j pipe to the lower intercooler pipe.

What mods are done to the car? Have you tried to change plugs/wires?

looks good

check how tight you have the j pipe bolted on. I had to tighten the crap out of mine I was afraid it would break the bolt, but it didn't.

vaccum leak is what i meant

you more than likely have a big boost leak. Have you tested for a leak yet

No, you won't have to buy new pipes. Put the maf between the upper ic pipe and the throttle body elbow. Use two 3" to 2.5" reducers and there you go.

The only trouble that you will have is cutting the radiator support. The upper ic pipe lines up fine. Some people have had problems with the throttle body elbow not being flat. I didn't have that problem. I used gasket sealant when I put the elbow on just in case the flange wasn't perfect...

It will. I'm using a dejontool fmic j pipe and it works fine.

the piping looks a little bit too long for my taste. I have their kit for the 2g with the short route piping and I love it.

usually a car charger won't have enough juice to start a dead battery. Jump it off of another car. If it starts let it run for about 20 or so minutes. Turn it off and if it doesn't restart its your battery.

yes you can get their pipe or make your own. It wouldn't be hard.

I use a palm m100 with software from ditial tunning. You can pick a used palm m100 for like $30 and the I believe the software is either 125 or 150.

I'm guessing that you have the xspower fmic with short route piping. I have it with my 16g. I bought a fmic j pipe from dejontool so it would line up correctly. I also have stock radiator and fans. As far as running it with the t25 you can look into cutting the outlet neck so it goes straight...

what time is everyone going to get there? We should try to park together

Did you just sit there and rev to tune or did you actually drive and tune? If you didn't drive you will need to as your fuel trims will most likely be different when you do drive.

I've seen between 150-250 per hour to tune and if they are just wanting do a couple of pulls I've seen 50-100 for about 2-3 pulls.

I'm paid comission. I have an extremely big route. I start around 2 am and finish the day around 6pm. I stay tired all of the time. 72k is what I made last year. When you get new business you get a 4 to 1 bonus. So if there weekly rate is 200 your one time bonus off that is 800. My commission...

I'm a route driver for aramark uniform servicesPros: benefits, 72k per year, weekends offCons: I deliver clean uniforms and pick up dirty ass

I know there was a little bit of a pressure drop, but not much. Whats slow about the spool is from 5psi and up. Getting into boost seems actually quicker.

did anyone else notice that their turbo spooled a little slower after the install or am I just retarded?

check out kydsm.com

I'm definately going to be there now.

I used the dejontool fmic j pipe also and no problems with install. Also I have stock radiator and fans with no overheating at all.
