I'm looking for some people who have info on the SBR GT-12. I have had this turbo for a while and finally got to the dyno yesterday. I'm interested in what kind of number people have put down and some 1/4 mile times.I have all the supporting mods for this turbo. A quick list: stock...
I've been getting my car back on the road finally. As of now it runs like crap and I need to tune it. I hooked my logger up and I can't get any reading from it.I took it out and put it in a friends car to see if it works and it worked fine.I checked and double checked all the connections...
I'm having some trouble with a 97 GSX. Built motor, 20g and supporting mods.I have 2 problems. One problem is with the idle after putting the clutch in or putting it in neutral. The other problem is the stutter box no longer works when the clutch is down.IDLE problem: When I...
Does anyone know how I can tell the difference with the turbo still on the car. I got a new car and I think it has a T-28 on it. Any pictures would be great.Thanks,
Mike
EVO III @ 23psi and supporting mods.When I do a 3rd gear pull @ 23 psi, the timing climbs all the way up to 23* sometimes making it to 24* with no knock at all. I already have my AFC - about 30 and still see no knock. The chip was correctly burnt for my 650's but it still seems way off...
Heres the mods. EVOIII 20psi, 650s,safc,maft,rewired 190,stage 3 chip. Chip compensates for 650s, and maft.With this same setup I ran 12.70 2 weeks ago. On the run I was seeing upwards of 24* or timing and no knock. At times my AFR would be around 12.5 with no knock still. I have my...
Car is a 92 AWD. Picked the car up from the shop went to use the blinker and nothing. I figured it was just the "TURN" fuse in the fusebox. Checked the fuse and it was fine. Tryed my 4-ways and they all worked.I then looked into the manual to see what i can come up with and it says...
After getting tired of the "lift kit" look it was time for a new setup. Heres how it looks. All I need now is an alignment and possibly a rear camber kit.Let me know what you think.-Mike
I hard wired my Apexi Pen Style TT in 2day.Wired it all up and it powers up just fine. With the car running, when I shut it off it will count down. Then when its hits 0 it will go to shut off then immediatley turn back on. With just the ACC on with the stereo, timer etc powered up it will...
Just curious as to who actually thinks about their future and puts their spare money in other places then their DSM. I do not invest in Stocks yet because im not experienced enough @22. But I do have money in the FUND. Monthly I put 200-300 into the fund.Just for any of you that are...
This happend while I was installing my new overflow bottle and drilling 2 holes. Well my dumbass drilled into the bundle of sires by accident near the stock overflow bottle. My lights flashed on and off when it happend. After getting the Overflow installed I started the car and my tail lights...
92 TSI AWD. EvoIII, 650's, Rewired 190lph, 18 psi,afc,wideband,logger.No matter what adjustment I put in the AFC I am running very rich. No boost leaks, I just tested it. On my wideband the highest it will read is 10.0 which is what it will read at WOT. Fuel trim is at 81%...
I recently noticed that the Throttle % on the AFC was reading 0.0%. I figured that the wire probably just came loose. I checked the grey wire that was tapped into the ecu wire and the connection is still solid. Its not my TPS because on my logger it reads mt Throttle % fine. What else...
There must be a way that you can record logs on your Palm when using the AEM UEGO. The gauge has extra wires and MMCD has alot of stuff thats not used. Im not the smartest when it comes to this stuff which is why I started a post so the people with brains can figure something out. A...
Just wondering if im the only one in the Real Estate Business? Anyone else involved in anyway? Sales,Brokers, flipping homes etc? :thumb:-Mike-

:toobad: Well, I spent the day doing a NON ABS conversion on my 92 AWD. I ran all the lines etc which wasn't all that bad. After everything was back 2gether it was time to bleed the brakes. I am using a one man bleeder system. Starting at the passenger's rear. No matter how many time I...
Well my tachometer has been acting weird. Sometimes it will work and other times it wont. Sometimes it will stick at one RPM and other times it will sit at zero.. I know the coil pack has some type of tach wire on it and I would think that the ECU may be bad. Just looking for some info from...
I have been running the 190 lph rewired with 650's for a while now. Im starting to get to the end of tuning and the car just feels like a dog.Just looking for some pro input on if I need to get one or now. My next mod is either the FPR, and if I dont need that I will be getting the MAFT...
I didn't see a tech article listed for tuning with your WideBand so I was hoping to get one made up. Possibly someone with more knowledge then me can post some insight. Im running the AEM UEGO, logger,and SAFC. I am new to the wideband and Im hoping to get a nice tune before race season...
Just looking for some thoughts on what to check out. When I go WOT in 1st gear it starts to miss/pop. It only does this is 1st gear. All other gears the car flys. I put another set of BPR7ES' in it, new wires and checked for boost leaks again. I am going go in the garage now and try on...
I have been running the basic Turbo XS Boost Controller in my car for a while now. They have the allen key plug in the top of it. Mine fell out somehow and my question is if anyone knows how that controller works. Can I just find a screw to fit inside to replace the allen plug or am I missing...
Does anyone have a link of the cable I need to connect from my actual logger cable to my PALM m125? I had one but I can find one and I dont want to order the wrong one. If you can send me a link. Thanks alot in advance!
:dsm: :talon: :laser:
Where can I tap my boost controller other than the BOV vac. line? I dont want to tap it into that because I am running 21psi on the turbo XS MBC and it is bleeding off so much that it not allowing my bov to see enough vacuum to open it up. Let me know where to tap er :thumb:Thanks,
Mike
I had my timing belt installed by my mechanic about 2 weeks ago. I drove the car about 3 times since then. The last time when I pulled it into the garage it was making a clicking/tapping sound. It sounds like its coming from the timing belt area. It never did this before the install. The...
My old thread was closed, I don't know why but it was. Sure it was extremely long but we were troubleshooting. As those who have read, I replaced my turbo. After doing so I finally got it running and now I'm still having the "fuel Cut" problem. The huge leak that was near the turbo is not...
I finally got around to puttin in my new Big 16g. After installing everything and finally starting it up I was leaking some oil from the feedline into the turbo. I figured it was because I used the stock washers, so I replaced them. When re-installing the feedline from head-turbo i somewhat...

Ehh, I hate to even post such a simple question but I have been searching for the last 2 hours and have not gotten a straight answer. I also looked in my Chilton and in the front of the book it says "see text" and in the text it says see capacities in the beginning of chapter. How much fluid...

I have been researching latley about getting a 16g for my 97 TSI. Im getting tired of the "2small" t25. Coming across a few threads I have seem people mention just getting a new oil line, j-pipe, and some adjustments on the water pipe. Has anyone done this or have any type of write up on how...
There are too many options to search when rebuilding/swapping the head. Plus I dont know all the options I have while the head is off. With that out of the way here is the situation. I have a 97 TSI AWD 5 speed with 165k on it. The car has 3" turboback,hard intake and intercooler pipes,pump...
What happend to the days when you can buy a nice running AWD 1g for under 2k. I bought my 90 GSX a few years back for $1700 with 132k and a nice body. Sure the 6 bolts are the best thing out there but come on I think some people are getting a little crazy with what they have. Im not going to...
I am in the process or rebuilding my 7 bolt or trying to save up for a 6 bolt swap. I have searched and found nothing useful. To many people saying NO and to many people saying YES. I just want some facts to make up my mind. Please post your 7 bolt rebuild results. Good or bad. Your...
Its about time that I rebuild my motor. Its an AWD 5 speed. I plan on upgrading the turbo sometime in the near future. I want to do this rebuild/swap as cheap as I can but still be able to hodl some power. I would just rebuild the 7 bolt but im scared wen I install an upgraded clutch that...
A friend of mine and I did a compression test on his 95 AWD. All the car has is a downpipe and cat back+filter. To start off the car cranks over runs and drives awesome. With no noises or smoke at all. After the compression test we came up with 50psi on the #1 cylinder!! As for the rest...
Hey everyone,
Im from Northeast PA near Wilkes Barre 18704. I have a 97 TSI awd that I would like to drop a 6 bolt into. I am good with upgrading/tuning but I think trying a swap would be over my head so I am looking for someone in or around PA with experience to do a swap for me. I will...
Well my car has been gettin a CEL latley and I though it was just from the downpipe not having a cat. But I got it scanned and it came up as #1 Cyl. Misfire. After checkign thru things I came to the conclusion it is the fuel injector. While the car is running when I remove the harness for the...
I have a 97 AWD with 160k+. I did a compression test and always would have thought if I had such low numbers on a cylinder I would be getting some smoke out the exhaust or something. The car runs amazing other than needing an Injector in the #1 cylinder. Heres how the test went. Compression-...
I have a 97 TSI Awd. Only mods are 3 inch turbo back and a fuel pump rewire. The car starts and will run fine but it throws a CEL for a misfire in cylinder #1. It idles at about 800 and sounds like a Subaru. It isnt really choppy, it just isnt smooth like it should be. The splugs and wires...
