    Why does my alternator belt squeal so much on initial start up?

    This is spot on. Exactly the problem in a lot of DSMs.

    opinions on AFSC

    I dislike the use of piggyback systems. While they aren't horrible, I haven't been able to beat a good tune with DSMlink.

    Hallman pro incabin mount

    I think the flow in the o2 housing causes boost creep, not a spike.

    Oil smell and smoke when turning

    I made sure my dipstick was secure and fit properly.I also replaced my PCV valve as I thought from the symptoms and only on right turns it could be the culprit. So far no oil smell or smoke, but I am waiting to see before making any sort of declaration.

    Oil smell and smoke when turning

    I was driving to work this morning and noticed that when i downshift into 3rd gear from 4th and go around a turn, I noticed a burning oil smell.I thought it was the other car on the road. So I continue and notice nothing when driving straight or in boost.I take another turn, downshift...

    why is my turbo so loud!

    Take a video. I would like to hear the noise. The turbo is quiet and still at idle, so I am wondering what it is that you are hearing.

    turnin up the boost.

    Buy an NGR Type S. Gives you a nice Greddy sound with a strong diaphragm. I owned a knock off Greddy, an authentic Greddy, and now the NGR, and the NGR is by far the best hands down.

    2G issues with 96 gsx new to dsm's

    Unless you drive with the pedal to the metal, that is not good gas mileage. With the modifications I have I can still get 250 a tank driving mostly around town with a little highway. So you are correct in saying your mileage is bad.lol

    2G issues with 96 gsx new to dsm's

    I see all you have right now is an intake. So let me start here..1.) My stock gauges are a FAIL. Check into trying an aftermarket oil pressure gauge.2.) Same as 1., but never worry or care about what your stock boost gauge says.3.) If you do #2, you will find out if you are...

    2G Spyder starter not turning flywheel

    That plate I think you are referring to is the shim for the torque converter. This is NOT to be used with a flywheel.

    Whine on deceleration

    I called Shep racing and explained a few things to try. Eventually, I had the shop take apart the transfer case and it was obvious once you got it apart, because the gears were starting to shred.

    Does it get louder or go away as you increase the rpms? Agreed, it does sound like an exhaust leak or lifter tick, but i never rule out a bad auto tensioner.

    NGR Performance's Type S Bov

    What happened to my BOV *pic*

    The NGR is far from a knock off. They are better quality then the original Greddy Type S. I know because I have owned a 40 dollar ebay knock off, 2 Greddy type s and now an NGR Type S. Best purchase yet.When my threads started to strip on my old Type S, I used teflon tape, and a nut on...

    auto to manaul swap

    For someone like in my case where I didn't have a plug for the reverse light switch, I would have to use connectors to attach wires to the 2 prongs on the transmission. What color wires go to what prong? I could just tap into my auto plug then.

    oil?

    I use 5w - 30. I don't drive in the winter thou. Actually, you should consider getting a set of 3g lifters or a set of revised lifters. The holes are far bigger and if you are going to take them out anyhow, I think its worth throwing a set in. Its nice because no matter what, I don't hear a tick!

    Do I have a boost leak, or what?

    It should have gone without me saying in my last post that you do need to address the leak you have at your injectors first. As far as the biss leak goes, alone, it is very unlikely to be the cause of your issues.

    ATTENTION!!! I'm in a mutha f***** pinch! [VIDEO]

    Which kind of checking did you do? There are two kinds..1.) I looked at all the pipes and everything is still in one piece2.) I ran a boost leak test using a BLT and spayed down every pipe and hose to inspect for leaks/bubbles.If you haven't tried the second one yet, I would try...

    No. My leaking biss screw never caused my car to stutter or act up like that. So you have a pocket logger or anything you can log with?

    Oil Leak

    Looks like your oil pressure sending unit is leaking. You will also need the round gasket behind the oil filter. It's on the oil filter housing assembly, maybe the oil filter mounting bracket gasket?

    Spyder rod bearing?

    Does the noise get louder as your rev the car or does it go away after a certain rpm?
  42. DSM4me44

    could it be a boost leak?

    1. Boost leak2. Spark plugs are bad (gap is wrong)3. Problem with ignition coil or spark plug wireThose are the first three things that come to mind. Spark plugs are cheap, so if you haven't replaced them in the past year, go get some.

    I added a bottle or 2 of water wetter mixed with water. I didn't mix it with antifreeze, which could result with a difference in performance of the wetter itself. I found the combination I used didn't work so well.I am running 20psi as well on my 14 and do not have heat issues. The 170...

    14b approaching 20 + psi, good afr's :-)

    This is my 2 cents....FORGET the water wetter. I ran hotter using it than just a regular 50/50 mix.GO with the lower thermostat. I notice big differences when I replaced mine.GO with a rewiring of the fans, you don't need new ones. I ran a jumper wire in the fuse box so now...
