I am looking into buying a decent wleder. I want to be able to do my FMIC piping myself and other misc. stuff. what is a better welder to get. I have experince welding exhaust at a muffler shop but dont know what i was using :D

Also the alt belt drives the water pump which has the power steering attached to it. I would not run the car with out that belt at all. cant move the water to cool the engine. I think putting that belt on and your car should be back to normall. Also might wanna check your tranny fluid. Sounds...

I just hooked up my Dual stage turbo XS today. Its "T"ed off the bov line from the intake and goes from there to the in side of the controller(or so i believe its the inside, The side with the smaller pin hole) then from the out side(the huge hole side) goes to the waste gate. Before when i was...

I got his runs on tape....I think he made two or more passes at an 8.6 or lower. It was so great to see a DSM beating most of the supra times there. plus the fact that the DSM still "looks" streetable and those supras and FWD cars look straight up drag cars. I also go the full bikini contest on...

I have the software installed. I have gone under all those folders and the cable shows up and says working under commport 3. The DSMlink used to be stuck on commport4 but since i installed the software its also reading commport3. but it still will not connect. and i still can not change the port...

Yeah i have posted there already but i need an answer fast so i can tune. So i posted here as well incase someone us still awake reading this forum

The option to select a port is gray and wont let me change it. It is set on commport 4...i dont know what port USB are cuz i didnt think they were designated to one-------dave

I just purchased a new lap top to tune my car via DSMlink. It does not have a serial port so i got a USB to serial adapter. everytime i try to do anything with the DSMlink it says IO invalivd commport......im assuming that means communication port as in it doesnt reconize it thru the USB. Anyone...

i wasnt complaining at all i was postin my time for feed back. I either have a boost leak or my dead O2 sensor is killing me i know its dead since it reads 3.49 volts all the time on my palm logger. I havent tuned at all with the DSMlink . so its pretty much stock.

HOLY SH*T.......i had a major typo. I am using my new lap top that i got for DSMlink so i guess im not used to typing on it. the time was a 13.6...........Not a 16.6...........a 13.6

Well I have a talon with no after market bolt ons. I have DSMlink but havnt tuned at all just using the stutter box at 4500. I have a ported turbo,ported 2gmani ported O2 running no exhaust. Hacked air can with paper filter still in it. and the BCS mod. Its the first time i had ever tryed to...

ITs a junk yard engine that had jumped timing. Has some awesome dents on the pistons. Had like 56K on and ive put about 650 miles on it. havnt ever checked compression either :eek:

I was running 93 octane. Im very happy with that run seeing as i put the engine together and everything my self in about 6 hours. Pistons in and in the car then fully reassymbled. Ill try to get a log on in a few mins

Tonight was my frist time ever running down the track. My car has no aftermarket parts other than DSMlink which i havnt used other than the stutter box. I have a hacked/custom cold air filter and ported turbo. Also running open O2 housing.....no exhaust...... Running stock boost around 14 psi. I...

I am trying to get the logged runs off my palm to the computer. I have all the software i have found in searches that i seem to need or thats mentioned.

My oil pressure at idle is going to zero on the stock gauge. Undre any load it goes up to right below the low side of the middle line. Its a new oil pump and engine. is that normal for these cars not to hold oil pressure on the stock guage? I am getting an autometer gauge this week. What kinda...

WHat turbo is he running. I think 660s for a 14B is just a tad to big :confused: I think that big of an injector with no tunning device or compensation would cause pig rich and thats whats causing it to stall. not positive but pretty sure

I know i know they arent the most super acurate things. but i have a friends and we used it on 6 cars other than mine and got exactly what we thought they would put down. Did it on two cars taht have been dynoed and it was within 5 hp on both :D well the reason i bring this up is because, my...

A few of my friends actually got pulled over for racing which they were and they were speeding. when it came to court they asked the officer to define racing and then they came back with a race has a designated starting point and ending point, they had never talked to eachother and didnt know...

well i guess my car is just a rat ass turd cuz i held it for like 30 secs and it changes to the brap brap brap after about 5 secs and didnt build boost or change again....also you can change the Rpm you want it to kick in at right? and turn it off it you wanted to? i have used the DSMlink yet...

Ive seen that video a hundred times but i always thought the turbo spooling was the supra......when he does a half assed one by himself in the begging he doesnt spool from what it sounds.....so thats the DSM that sounds like a jet??

Yea whats the anti lag whats it do and whats the best way to use it??? I wish the DSMlink came with a booklet of how tos and what not. Its the studder box im using. set at 4500 rpms wot and it just bounces there but no boost. i do have a boost leak and can only build 6psi at the most. I was...

I was under the impression that when you used studder box it would make your engine think you were under load by cutting timing and you could build boost before the launch......i just did it and it doesnt build boost. Is the point just to be a WOT when you leave the line. cuz i feel the same...

This thread wasnt started to bash them. Just to bring a smile and laugh to your day. As im sure the pics of crank walk did. Honestly i am tunnig an SRT-4 right now and its godafull fast. I would own one if i didnt have a DSM and my driving record didnt suck so bad that insurance would be more...

what type of boost controller are you using. have you tried hooking it back up stock to see if it stops creeping. i know some people who have had boost controllers that have to much spring tension and cause it to act as if its turned all the way up even when its on the lowest setting. Just a thought

have you searched DSMtrader.com i would look there for a 2G mani cuz its a better flowing one and fits fine

I highly recommend a nonperformence car. Honestly id get the car you want regardless of performence but i wish i hadnt driven one when i was first driving. My driven record and cost of insurance reflects that :thumbdown Just dont be king of the road and run the hell out of whatever you get...

thats exactly what i thought but didnt wanna give false info untill someone else agreed with me. hopefully now you will see your engine is :thumb: and its just something to do with tunning. best of luck with it and im supprised no one else caught that untill i said something :D

that pretty much how i thought it was. but i need it confirmed for a guy whose doing a leak down test need to know when what pistons on what stroke for the test

for all users of these turbos, i am looking into a 600 whp(700+ crank) turbo and wanting to know how they compare and drive. when you start building boost, when you hit boost. and if anyone has a dyno sheet from either so i can see the power curves. i was told if i wanna have an easier time...

How does the 4G63 work. as in when cylinder 1 is on compression what are the other 3 clylinders on. I know there are 4 strokes. is each cylinder always on a different stroke?? I am pretty sure i know the answers but since no one is responding to a different post i figured i ask the direct...

well if im not mistaken when you are switching betweeen the two that are on TDC one is on the compression and the other one is either one is on the exhaust stroke. i dont believe 2 cylinders are on the compression stroke at the same time. hints why one is 8% and one is 100% becuase the valves...

I would say DSMlink and laptop if you didnt already have a logger and MAFT. I dont think DSMlink isnt need untill you upgrade your turbo and fuel seeing as i got it and plan to try for 300+ out of it with the DSMlink. If i had gotten the MAFT first i wouldnt have the DSMlink since you only need...

firestone does 4 wheel alignments and you can buy "lifetime" alignements from them. i think around 135$ maybe up to 185$ depending on where you live. you can go back anytime you want for however long you own the car. I used to work at one in blacksburg and i have done a ton of 4 wheel alignments...

I was planning on going with a mig but i had read and thought the tig was more useable but harder to use. my main problem with the tig is all of them are 220-240 and i dont wanna run a line to my workshop. i have it in my basement tho. I cant find the mig gas feed one for around the 250-300$...

I am looking into buying a decent wleder. I want to be able to do my FMIC piping myself and other misc. stuff. what is a better welder to get. I have experince welding exhaust at a muffler shop but dont know what i was using :D

I basically just wanna find a turbo that is a downshift away from like 350 hp with stock internals till i can finish my build up. i want a turbo that can support 600 give or take 50 whp and that is ball bearing. and aprox price if yall know. and if anyone runs one and could give an opinion on it...

because as stated it will be on a stock internal engine that wont rev to 9 grand. i dont mind the 4K spool up since it will help avoid tickets and wasting gas just making sure its not worse

well how laggy are those turbos... the SCM61?? it will be street driven and will be used on a nonbuilt engine more than likly till i can blow it up. thats why i likes the 60-1 cuz i heard it does great on low boost so it would work on unbuilt engines thanks Dave

I thought i read something that the GT-35R is pretty much the same wheels but Ball bearing? I have a slight bit of shaft play in my 14B and if i am getting a new turbo i wanna just buy one turbo and be done. I have a 6botl being built so i dont wanna hear i need the have the support and what...
