Here are the resulty from dyno day, thank you all that came out to show your support. Im actually the dsm expert at the shop, i built projekt1 car from the ground up, and am still getting suckered into working on it every now and then. If you have any questions you can call me at the shop...
you have to run the BOV line from the manifold after the throttle body... its how they work.
if you run it before the throttle body it wont ever release...
this happened to me, but on a different car. what happens is that when it idles you have enough vacuum in the manifold to pull oil past the valve stem seals, but not enough into the cylinders. Once you hit boost, BAM, sucks it allll in and makes a james bond effect.To test:Let car idle...
He did my friends STI stuff, hes a pretty straight up dude.Good call on using a torque plate! Im glad some people understand how to truly bore and hone.And i have a valve holder + compound to lap those valves for ya btw.
So my mom just but a big ass NO to the stinson meet for me... but my friends are still going. He has a black 1g gsx... hope you all have fun, take a bunch of pics. so ###...

thats just like the ACT disc's, the full face ones. i ordered a "kit" from somebody... but the disc was crap. ordered a new one. and WOW. it was amazing the different, it had 4 dual springs, instead of 6 small ones... and the center hub was soooo much bigger.i guess everybody is revising...
Well i just got done researching the lancia, and that thing was amazing. Kind of a sad story though...I was just wondering about the idea though... Ya never know if anybody else has the same idea or question...And its a semi-twin turbo kit. I was thinking if you just had the...
So after reading about all of this twincharger stuff (SC + turbo). I was thinking... Could you have a belt driven style supercharger that sped up the exhaust gases before it hit the exhaust turbine so you could get boost sooner, and then even flow more at the top end? I realize its a crazy idea...
First off, yes i've searched, but I just want to make sure what i found is correct.
The main bolts should be torqued down to 18 ft/lbs and then an additional 90-100 degress... correct?Have any of you torqued them down to say 25? 40? 60+?It's not that i don't have faith in my manual...
So I ordered a set of main bearings from, along with 9 other items which came to roughly $550, got it all shipped, it came like 10 days later cause I ordered on Dec. 28, which I didn't really care about. But it would have been nice to get sooner. I go through and look at all of the parts. And I...
Doesnt anybody make a oil guage that goes higher than 100PSI??? Everybody seems to peg them out, so im just guessing if we had a higher guage, then, we could maybe even get more input on just how high the oil pressure does go... just a thought.
I just got my order in from Extremepsi.com, i ordered ACL Race Series bearings for my Mains, and Rods, the Rods look to be ok, but im a little confused on the mains. I thought they had a little flange that kind of helped hold them onto the bearing seat? Am i wrong? I'll include pictures of the...
I got my car for 650, and then 50 towed to my house. Could'nt beat it, it was only a GS-T. but still... one of the FEW turbo cars in my town. try craigslist.com TONS of cars on their. Oh, and im doing an engine rebuild, i got a donor block, crank, pistons, rods, and empty head for $100.
KillerX; No matter what you do you would need an O2 sensor if you changed to any type of O2 Housing, the ECU is expecting to get a signal from it to tell it what the A/F Ratio is, with an Atmo. Dump, you still put it in. Just not into the Atmo. Dump Tube, you would put it in the main one...
I would strongly suggest you go and check out extremepsi.com, I was able to cut almost $100 off my rebuild order by going through them... just wanted to let you know.And also a few others things to consider are a Clutch Fork, the Pivot Ball, SS Clutch Line.
I just got done pulling out my entire engine, minus the Trans. And its VERY possible. Just remove all the front timing misc. stuff, and remove the AC bracket; along with just about everything else. I stripped down my engine just to the block... I then put two jack stands underneath where the...
it sounds like boost creep to me... your wastegate couldnt flow enough exhaust through it.
and thus it makes your turbo spin faster than normal, and raises boost.just my guess. maybe somebody else will chime in now.
thanks for the feedback, and so fast.i'll defintaley buy a new fork, TOB, and pivot ball.
and i was reading people had some good success with shimming the pivot ball.
any ideas on that whole thing???
so i searched a lot... and the basic opinion of the ACT 2600 clutch is that its not the best...
but im getting a good deal on it... and i need a clutch, its also coming with the ACT flywheel... so i have a few questions.first; i have a 97 GST; stock trans. 70k original miles.if i...
