Evo was driven 2.5 hours to trackYouTube - Viper VS Evo battle - Boosted FilmsIn all honesty, when I was watching live at the track, I...
Just like the title says, my 91 Talon headlights won't go down. They work fine otherwise. I can screw them down manually and then they come back up when I turn the lights on, but just don't go down when I turn the lights off. I check the fuse, and obviously since they still go up the fuse...
Who else is actually running a Kaaz LSD in there FWD DSM? I noticed another post stating similar problems I am having with a chatter while turning. I use the term chatter loosely as it I can feel it shake the car is the clutches catch and release. I did the proper 1/2 hour figure-eight BS that...
91 Eagle Talon turbo front wheel drive.I'm on my 3rd Advance auto parts alternator (within a week) and something keeps killing the diodes apparently. The alternator works fine for a while putting out 14.55 volts, but the 3 dash lights to symbol a bad alternator flicker on for just a 1/2...
Picked up a Kaaz LSD DBM2080(info) that is made for the 93-99 FWD trannys with the larger diameter input shafts. I was wonder if I could install the LSD in a 90 trans and just run the larger CV shafts made for the differential.
Well after blowing my stock transmission in my 91, I finally went ahead and decided to find out if a 90 tranny would fit in a 91 without changing the shifter cables/shifter etc. It went perfect and now my shifter actually has a shorter throw than before. I used the 91 cable bracket, 91 cables...
My stock transmission.Gone after 200,000 miles of faithful(ish) service.The only good news of it all this is that the car is back up and going with a 1990 transmission. It may interest others to know that the 90 did indeed bolt right up and work fine in a 91+...
Just thought I'd let you know 255/45/17's will fit! The rims have a 35mm offset. Tires stick out a bit on the front but clear the struts without any spacers.245/45/16 compared to the 255/40/17'srearfront without spacers!
So I picked up a used T3 turbo and im trying to get as much info on it as I can. What I know is its a T3 .48AR. I measure the Inducer (47mm) and the Exducer(60mm) and used the formula found on garretts website to determine It is a 60 trim. Now I was told it was a 50 trim and I guess most...
1992 Turbo AWD automatic, basically stock. Running NGK BPR6ES plugs. The #2 plug fouls out about once a week. I checked the compression and its normal. It has spark but I have tried different ignition module, coil pack, and wires anyways. It randomly misfires on the #2 cylinder. The car...
92 Turbo AWD Automatic......
After a large amount of snow over the weekend, I was driving my car and all of a sudden my lights started to dim and my wipers started to slow down. I knew it was sign of low voltage so I pulled over in a parking lot so I was off the street. While in the parking...
:cry: :cry: right in my apartment parking lot. happened between midnight and 8:30am.
already reported it to the police and now i'm looking for the car that may have done it.http://students.uwsp.edu/peler141/back_3.JPGhttp://students.uwsp.edu/peler141/back_4.JPG...
I just heard about this on a different site and was pretty shocked.basic story- US, Canada and Mexico join together to form one union. Also use the same new currency, an "Amero".Anyone else hear anything about this?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vuBo4E77ZXo&mode=related&search=...
after installing my HKS 264 cams, my car shakes like crazy inside at idle and basically anywhere under 2,000 RPM. car idles fine and I like the sound of the cams, but the shaking was more than expected. I still have my balance shafts installed and everything. Anyone else have similar problems?
alright, this whole FWD thing is just getting ridiculous. I've been shooting for 12's all of last year and all of this year and still cant pull it off. I've tried a lot of different tricks. dual stage boost control for one. It helps getting off the line, but i just have it run off a toggle...
car: 92 AWD AUTO(basically stock)It basically goes from 1500 to 2000 to 1500 to 2000 when you step on the gas. But what I've found is that once the car seems to reach normal operating temp, it will run normal (rev past 2K). I've done a boost leak! its fine. I've tried a different MAS...
Just got forge 1G vented BOV from a friend and no matter what I try, it flutters. I was running a crushed 1G that never fluttered. I didn't change anything besides the BOV.this is what i found the spring rating to be.
Green - 5-15 PSI
Yellow - 15-23 PSI
Blue - 23-30 PSII've tried the...
mods are listed in my profile, I'm using a MAFT for tuning and MMCD for logging. I also currently have a exhaust cut out on my car for some free flowing exhaust, which also causes me to creep from 15 psi to about 19. which is fine with me for at the track. So my high fuel trim is really lean...
Would you buy a full race head from a small shop/private seller?
-New EPN 1mm oversized valves
-New EPN 100% bronze guideliners
-fully hand ported and polished
-New Manley Spring
-New Manley titanium retainersIf you could get a head like this for 800$ that would normally cost over...
1.) Which intake manifold flows better, 1G or 2G? I know the 1G is bigger, but that does not necessarily mean better.2.) After comparing a 1G head with a 2G head, and doing some research, it looks as though the 2G head is a better flowing head. I also found that the 6bolt heads have a...
I bought a set of used HKS 264's and am looking for all the exact specs on these cams. I search and came up with nothing. I also check HKS's website with no luck. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
I think I have a shot at the ugliest drivable talon.
Before I fixed the windows. (pink duck tape LOL)Yes I drive this everyday. perfect winter beater. gets more looks than my FWD with the bodykit and vented BOV.
This is actually rather simple but it took me a while to figure it all out so I figured I would share what I have learned. One way to check is to look at the VIN # on the transmission. I will post a picture below showing where the VIN # is located on the transmission if you don't know where it...
First off, I do have a MAFT so I can vent my BOV properly. Second, I guess it was the ricer in me or just the fact that I was getting sick of my BOV always sounding the same that made me try something new. So I started by drilling two 1/4" holes in the BOV. I didn't notice a big change in...
So the tranny in my 91 is getting a little shady between gears and looking to swap in a different one. Well right now I currently have three 1990 FWD Turbo transmissions. But I have heard that the 90's are weaker than the 91& newer. Anyone know if their is any truth to that? Since I have 3 of...
Is it removable? I have a AWD 2nd gen manual transmission and that shaft the the Throw out bearing rides on is scorn and has a low spot. So is it possible to remove and replace this sleeve without tearing the whole tranny apart?
I decided to start my 90 AWD the other day just to let it run a little since i've been mainly driving my FWD for the past couple weeks. I start it up and put it in reverse and start to back up when it stalls out. Ok, im not use to the stock clutch, maybe i just let it out to soon. I start it...
So all my mods are in my profile, but I think the main thing here is that my BOV is vented properly with the MAFT. Anyways, if im driving and build boost and let off the gas the bov does its normal woosh and then after about 1 or 2 seconds its does this whistle type of sound happens. and its...
Anyone else have a "DSM bible"? I have a folder which contains alot of things I have printed off or recieve with part that I have purchased for my DSM in which I have kept for futher learning and teaching. My folder includes alot of MAFT and SAFC tuning guide, boost controller installs, alot of...
My best time was a 13.110 @ 104.923 mph with a 1.865 60'. Stock head, cams, injectors shortblock. I'm very excited and happy to be in the low 13's but now I'm kinda stuck in a tuff stop. I really want to hit 12's yet this year but I dont really know what else I can do for mods. I want to...
Looking at possibly getting a Frank 3 and have a few questions. first off, I got to test out the turbo on the car it is on now and it doesnt seem to reach full spool until about 4,500 RPM's.( the car also has some exhaust leaks and possibly boost leaks) After looking around on DSMtuners, this...
I know the turbo heads have differnt cams and the oil feed line/hole but, I am wondering if they have a serial number on them somewhere(like the turbo trannys are 33) that can help you quickly identify weather its a turbo or nonturbo head. Also looking for some tips on telling the difference...
Finally getting around to porting my 14b and putting on my 2G exhaust manifold. Got a few questions.1.) After taking the turbo off and apart I found that their are two cracks where the wastegate flapper sits. I assume this is common and ok, but still would like some input/info. here are some...
Just picked up a 1990 Talon AWD and noticed the speedometer starts out at 5 instead of 0 (like my 91). kinda wierd, I always knew 90's were diffent with alot of stuff but i never heard about this before, not that its a big deal or anything. Anyways, anyone elses 90 spedo start at 5 or at 0?
My friend just picked up a 93 Plymoth Laser FWD Turbo. We don't much about it but we pulled the tranny out of because it was basically junk and replaced it with another turbo FWD tranny(91+) and the half shafts inlets to the tranny are too big in diameter. We also found a nice ACT clutch...
I have a new Centerforce Dual friction clutch. I broke it in propertly with the 500 mile regular driving and it now has about 2000 miles on it. I had my flywheel resurfaced but I didnt check the height :nono:. The clutch seems fine expect in first gear when im full throttle. It fells like...
Well wheel hop and tire spin are really making me decide that suspension is a must for my next mod. I'm pretty sure I'll go with the KYB adjustable shocks but because of my body kit, I don't know what springs I should get. The car is my daily driver, so I'm NOT going the adjustable coil over...
Well I dont know if adding a blow-thru MAFT setup is cause fast enough spool up time to give me mad wheep hop, but I never had a problem with wheel hop in second gear before I add the MAFT and prothane motor mounts. I start to get a little wheel hop in first and then once I hit 5000-5500 RPM's...
Bought a bunch of new parts (MAFT, CFDF clutch, removed all emissions, dodge mod)during the winter and just finally got clutch broke in enough to the point where I felt safe taking it for a nice Pull. Before I got the translator my FTRL was way lean- 139.8%. So right now with the idle setting...
I bought my logger and cable off ebay(over a year ago) so the cable going to the diagnostic port is really cheap. Since the wires are so cheap and small <b>i accidentally ripped them</b> from the cable. So, anyone else that has a 1G cable of ebay could help me out here. I'm not sure which...
