See this thread for some previous info: http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=243232Ok, so I ran a log with 100 octane gas and methanol and I'm STILL knocking. AFR is 11.x:1 and seeing 21-22deg of timing. I verified that all timing settings are correct.On 93, I'm seeing...
Whenever I go WOT in 3rd gear to try to log, I end up knocking badly as soon as timing drops from wherever it was when I started (mid 20s) down to 20 or 19.It never fails that as soon as I hit 20, the knock kicks in. That usually happens around 3200rpm or so in 3rd gear.I'm wondering what...
Ok, I have done everything to try to get this thing fixed. Rebuilt my TB, pressure tested w/no leaks, tried adding fuel... NOTHING will get my low trim off of 139%. The other thing is that the car will idle fine for a few seconds (at a 15.x:1 on the WB), but then it'll kinda sputter and...
I just changed my oil to 10W30 after running Mobil 1 15W50 this past year. I had switched from 10W30 to 15W50 at the beginning of last summer and have stayed with it since then. But you can't really get it anymore at Walmart in the jugs, much less anywhere else after Katrina last year.The...
I just installed a WB O2 last night and I am wondering a few things.1. My idle is at 17+ AFR. Shouldn't it be 14.7?2. My car's low trim is pegged at 139%.3. If I use my SAFC to add fuel in, I have to get it to 20% to get the AFR to 14.7 or get the low trim down near 110%.4. I am...
Frustration! I go to port my Evo3 today and one bolt broke, and two stripped out. The threads were nasty from the previous owner, but this is ridiculous.So, I guess that Helicoils are going to have to be the fix. What type of bolts should I get from the HW store to replace the bolts? I...
This will fit on my '92 without mods, right? They look different just looking at it, but it looks like it'd work.Will all of the sensors work, too? Thanks.
The car bucks when I'm going WOT, and it's usually only on cold days (like today). I am around ~18-19psi on cold days.I've hit fuel cut before, just hear a big POW! and then you can keep on driving... Well with this, I can keep my foot on it and it jerks forward like slamming the brakes...
The turbo housing on my Evo3 16G must've had the bolts broken off in it or something. Anyways, they were poorly drilled out. One is really bad, the others aren't terrible. I ran a tap thru them before I put it on the car. I think it may be leaking exhaust there, making tuning really...
Where under the hood can I find a 12v switched ignition source? I'm not savvy when it comes to wiring, so I'm sure it's pretty obvious and I just don't know it.It's for a relay. Thanks!
So I'm a college kid trying to make a few bucks here and there. Anyways, a guy I know has a '97 VR4 and wanted me to put new shocks in for him. I did the first one and taught him as he did the 2nd one. He was quoted at a shop for $250 front/$250 rear ($500 total) and he supplied the parts...
Why does everyone say that Intrax sucks? I just put them on last Thursday or so, and the car is fine. It is really low, and a bit of a harsh ride, but that's what I prefer. I haven't lowered the AGXs down from their highest setting yet, but I don't mind it. The only negative is when I'm...
Well, my T-belt decided to let go tonight. I'm exploring options:1. Cost of a used motor? I know a junkyard nearby that's all Mitsus...
2. Rebuilt head and pistons?
3. Anything else??I'm just trying to get it running again, no performance this or that. I have to drive it to...
Check out the attachments, they look right? They're Bosch 550cc injectors that I got from a Stealth owner. He said they fit fine in the fuel rail, so I dunno. He never said that he ran them, though.Also, just got the MAFT blow thru on, and I went out for a short drive to log it. Low...
I have a 3" MAF and some 3" ID silicone hose. I can't for the life of me get the hose onto the MAF or the Dejontool UICP either. Do I need 3.25" ID hose? Or should I just suck it up and keep trying to force it on there? Thanks for the help...
I got a Walbro 255lph pump from www.importpoweronline.com and it's model GSS 342. I want to make sure that this is the correct one for a '92 TSi FWD (early '92, if that makes any difference). Came with an install kit. Is this the normal one or HP unit? I can't find anything about it...
