    stock bc issues

    So I picked up a fairly cheap srp mbc installed it 2 different ways and each way it kept boosting way past 15psi which is not what i wanted to achieve. So i had to goto work, so i reconnected everything back up (stock) and now its stuck at 11psi, when before it was at 14psi. My question is ...

    Boost Controller hookup?

    Excellent looks simple enough. Any reason why the vacuum hoses have to be as short as possible or does it just work better that way?

    Boost Controller hookup?

    Newbies: A Good Example of why Maintenance Works Wonders!

    I believe with the throttle body and idle screw that its just going to leak there no matter what. I have yet got that leak taken care of, but i think i heard someone on here say that its not possible to even fix that from leaking.

    Does this have a possibility of messing something up?

    So im fooling around with these cheap ebay UICP that I got, and im having the biggest part getting them to all connect right, mainly because i think these pipes were just not made for this car and whoever made them just randomly made some pipes, anyway thats another story. But today when i...

    Wierd shifting problem

    Maybe it doesnt exactly have to do with shifting but it seems like my RPMS just dont drop fast enough. An example. In 3rd gear comming up to 3k rpm i disengage the clutch, let off the gas, bov does its thing but instead of the rpms droping(like its suppose to right?) when car isnt in gear they...

    Stock Boost [Merged 5-7]

    I believed before i started playing with my gst it was at 12psi dead on, now ive gone and messed with things and it hits 14psi and sometimes touches 15. Imo this is way to much for that t25. Once my mbc comes in im probably going to set it at 13 or 12

    Loss Of Power Above 5000 Rpm Help!!!!!!

    How can the intercooler go bad? I use to think I had the same problem. loss of power after 5500rpm. But after alot of work ive just come to the conclusion as someone else just said that after 5500rpm the turbo stops pushing the power anywayThe sputtering could be fouled plugs and possibly...

    how do i install the af gauge?

    You sure you have it tapped into the right O2 hole? And make sure your looking at the diagram maybe you are looking at your plugs upside down? Also you are starting the car to see if theres an o2 reading cause it doesnt come on with acc just on.

    Exhaust or IC Pipes ??

    I went upper and lower IC pipes that were $140 to my door. Indeed helped, felt like I boost stronger now, those stock pipes just dont cut it. While i was at it i also got a 1g bov with the IC pipes. But the exhaust i want is like $500 Apexi N1 =\ so the IC pipes just seemed more worth it.

    General Turbo Questions

    Since I dont have a turbo timer yet I was wondering how long you should consider cooling down for? Lets say you just got done cruising not really getting on it at all how long at idle before you turn it off to allow proper cooling for the turbo. What about how long when you did get on it and...
