Yep. I'm going to. Just curious and a little skeptical of everyone selling turbos after my experience recently. :)Yes. The intake manifold and throttle body are gonna have to be upgraded eventually. I've been dumping a lot of $$$ into the car lately to get it up. It's been down for about...

This is some really helpful info. mindblowin93's setup is very similar to mine so it helps to see what he's running. Thanks a lot. The hx40 is sounding better by the minute.Anyone know this guy? He's selling 8 blade hx40s.

Ok, sounds like everyone is recommending Holset so far. I've read a lot about them and seems like people really like them especially around dsmtuners.Just for the record, the Precision 6169RSP that I bought is rated to 650hp and costs $800.I'll look into the Hx35 and Hx40. Any more...

I really don't know enough about turbos to have a preference. I like Precision but don't have a real reason for that. I'd like to stay below $1,000

I am looking for some advice on what turbo I should run. I recently purchased a Precision 6169RSP ball-bearing turbo that was "brand new" from a reputable seller on eBay. Long story short, after the car ran for 30min the shaft play was so bad it destroyed itself. So, while I deal with the seller...

I'm in Massillon/Canton looking for a dsmlink pro to help me get my car running. Know anybody?

So I'm thinking about 245/45 on all four. Yes, I've read that staggered setup is not recommended for AWD but I got a sweet deal on the wheels and I'm prepared to find out for myself. I was going to stretch the tires (like a 225 or 235) but I'm going for performance and handling and that didn't...

I think you may be onto something.Yes crank looks toasted and there are no pics of the bearing in the block. That's the bearings in the girdle the motors still in the car. I haven't had time and was just curious as to what happened so I tore the bottom apart. Yes There are gaps on the...

In fact, the car was low on oil because of the oil leak that I mentioned. When I pulled over there was oil all over the engine bay. I fixed the oil leak (too late) but the ticking was still there. That's when I pulled the oil pan.Yes, that's a good point. I may take you up on that offer...

I just got my motor in and tuned with DSM link V3.My current set up consists of eagle rods, JE pistons, Fox Lake ported head with ferrera 1mm over valves and springs, crower retainers, HKS cams and gears. This is supposed to be good to rev to 9K although I have my limiter set at 8k and shift...

So, everyone agrees that you do not always need to get the turbo rebalanced?I called a local shop and they wanted $275 to rebuild and balance + the price of the kit.Sounds too good to be true that I don't have to balance. Is this true?The list they have on the above link is true in...

I currently am running 19in wheels. Yes, check my gallery for pics to prove it. I am pretty sure it's not a good idea to run that size wheel while making decent power. Thoughts?I was going to buy a set of 15 or 16s until I found this thread. Great point about the big brake kit not fitting in...

This almost gives me some hope for my car on pump gas!

I figured someone would chime in that knew who this was. Seems like too great of a car to go unnoticed.You sir, are correct.

Anyone know what intercooler this is? Looks freakin sick and I need it.

So how much? And do you still need a core?

Unfortunately we don't have many E85 stations around here so I will be running 93-94. Thanks for the info on the idling info. I was wondering about that.

Thanks a lot for the feedback, guys. Kyle, I was thinking the same thing... Why did I buy dsmlink?? Haha. I will stick to my current plan of 1250s + AFPR and I guess I will stick to the stock rail.Thanks a lot guys. Feel free to give more feedback cause I'd appreciate any knowledgable input.

Thanks for the feedback, dude. I was wondering if a fuel rail would really matter considering my current setup and goals. As for the injector size, that's what I plan to do: go as big as I can afford. I will probably end up with FIC 1250s.

Yea, I realize the turbo is going to be the one of the main factors holding me back. I guess I am going after the parts cheapest to most expensive. Why do you say I wouldn't need the aftermarket rail? I would think if I was running 1000+ injectors a high flow rail would make sense.

I know there are tons of threads asking "What injector size would you recommend?" but here's another. I have searched for awhile through the forums for a setup similar to mine to avoid posting another random thread but I didn't have any luck.My profile is updated with my latest updates but...

Good point. I noticed that when I received my dsmlink package today. Amazingly, I just ordered it yesterday... Thomas and his crew are crazy fast.

I went ahead and sold my translator. I decided that the cable was a cleaner solution.

I just purchased a MAF-T and a GM MAF from the classifieds. A couple days after it came in the mail I decided to go ahead and purchase dsmlink v3. I noticed while on their site they are offering a "GM MAF cable".I currently have the MAF-T listed back in the classifieds for sale but I thought I...

Yes, big update. I changed the timing belt, fixed the timing because it was off a little, counter shaft eliminator, tuned the afc and it ran great. It ran the best ever.Then I threw a rod through the block on 23lbs. It's away for awhile. GOOD LUCK!

I am in the process of replacing the timing belt, etc. My timing was off just a little and I am hoping that's the problem. I should have it all back together by Saturday so I can report back.Hopefully I have good news on Saturday!I tried replacing the coil pack. No luck.I have...

correct

that's worth a try. I will try it tonight. Yes, the speedometer is working.

I have Taylor wires. I tested them with a Fluke and they were better than the ones I almost bought at AutoZone.I do not have a low rev limiter. I will need to get back to you on the speed sensor. Where is that located?

Could I have jumped a tooth on my timing?

Ohhh, the power transistor thing? Yea... good call. I will check that.

I have a data logger. Anything specific you think I should be looking for?

yea, coil pack. hahahaah

I believe I am having this same problem, but not completely sure. Is this what your problem is guys? Here's a video of what my car is doing.Not only does the tach jump when parked, but while driving the car feels like it's hitting fuel cut at 5k RPM (10lbs boost). It shakes wildly. I have...

What & where is the "injector driver box"?

I am having this same problem. Here is my thread with a video. I know of 3 people now on this forum that are having this issue and no one can seem to figure it out.http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/tuning-engine-management/306252-car-wont-rev-up-hitting-low-rev-limiter.html

I've replaced them twice in the past 250 miles. I am way past this little stuff guys. Please read my first post.Thanks.

I was running 6ES but replaced them with 7ES. Yes, they are gapped at .028".

Yes, I have checked the wires.

Well, that wouldn't explain my problem while driving.When I am actually driving the car instead of the tach just looking like it's hitting rev limiter, it feels like fuel cut. The car shakes back and forth.I have checked the fuel pressure and it seems fine but when it hits 5k RPM and about...

Thanks for the reminder. I've been meaning to swap my coil pack. Thankfully, my buddies DSM is down for the count so I am able to borrow parts. :)

Just wanted to give an update. I have now ALMOST run out of ideas. I have swapped the ECU and nothing changes. Tonight I am going to swap the MAS but I am not very optimistic.Any ideas?

Yea, I am just running out of ideas and trying to rule everything out. It makes sense to me that a bad ECU would cause these kind of problems so I figured I would give it a shot.

Interesting, I will check this asap.

Hmm... do you have an ECU I could try as well? I may just take you up on that. I will look into putting in a new crank angle sensor. Thank God for Advance Auto / AutoZone... buy it, try it, return it = great for DSMers.

Thanks for the response. I will try a good working MAF as soon as I can. I have checked the plug on the MAF a couple times to make sure it hasn't come loose but I have not yet tested the wires.I will double check the setting in the AFC. I know which setting you are talking about but I cannot...

Coolant level is perfect. Thanks for the idea though.I am borrowing an ECU from a friend so I can rule out the ECU being bad.

Well, to my knowledge no one has been sneaking into my car messing with my afc. And I know the general slope of my afc settings and after checking, the settings have not changed.I would be so happy if someone would read this thread that has actually experienced this problem before.

Now that would just be too easy. Remember, we are dealing with DSMs here. The car has been decently tuned with a logger/afc and ran perfect for weeks (months?) and out of nowhere this whole issue came about.

I know it's not possible... I was describing the sound. Watch the video and you'll see what I mean. Just trying to fix my car dude.
