Just finished the new setup.
JMF swaintech coated manifold with tial vband, hta 3794.
Should make for a nice sleeper. It took a bit to get everything to fit the way I wanted but its done, maybe I can get into 12s now :sneaky:
With all things being equal would 2.3L stroker make the egt to be about 150deg F hottter at idle and cruising over a 2L engine. I'm running the dsm hta 3586. I have tried to play with the tune wth no luck. I'm using dsmlink with s/d. Maybe more exhaust flow from a stroker. Over the winter I will...
Just switched from hta3582 to hta3586 and at the same level of boost around 36psi I really see no power increase. The car is tuned with dsmlink and all the parameters are looking good. Afr is around 11.6(with meth) timing is at 18deg(top of third) with no knock(maybe .4 here and there). Do I...
So I started to install the new FP green on my friends Colt and i have noticed a little problem.As you see the comp outlet is right above the engine mount. The car has a 1g 2.0L engine.Any suggestions are welcome. Would the same problem occur with 1g fwd car?
Hey, we are building a 2.3L storker with Arias .20 over pistons and after talking with the Aries tech he told me to use .024 on the 1st and .018 on the 2nd, thats with 35r at 30psi. By searching this forum the norm is .019 1st and .023 on the 2nd at this power level. What should I gap them to...
Hey, could somebody with a Tial 44mm wastegate please help me out. I need you to apply pressure about 20psi to the lower vac port to see if the air is coming out through the dump tube. On my re-build w/g when doing boost leak test I have air coming out of the dump tube is that normal. ?? thanks
Last night I went to the track and notice that car only makes 10psi of boost. I'm using Tial44 gate. When I did boost leak test I have air coming out from the dump tube, when w/g is by passed(no vacuum hoses) it holds boost. When I hook up vacuum hose to the lower port and apply pressure(boost...
So after researching on what is the best I/C kit for the 2g cars I decided to get the ETS pro race kit for my talon. The kit arrived complete at my door in few days. After removing my bumper and my old I/C( big greddy) I have noticed that the bumper would need some more trimming as the core is...
I running the Greddy 24 (big) intercooler and was just wondering if you guys think that its too small for my set up. I was running 31psi on a 3065 turbo and had the boost controller maxed out and it would not make more power. Max timing at 14deg and A/F at 11.5 on 100oct fuel. It made 405 awhp...
Ok, since last year I had this problem and its driving me nuts. At 20 psi the car is OK and making good power but when boost is turned up to 23+ its not making as much as it should. When Shifting hard 1-2,2-3 the boost falls off and the car studders for 10 seconds and then its OK. Also I had the...
Hey, I'm looking to purchase a new OEM block from the dealer and was wondering which part number I need?. The final production numbers were june 97 and up. Is that the one with the split thrust bearing?. thanks
I was thinking of installing some mild cams on my wifes Talon with stock t25. would there be any gains up top or would the turbo not be able to keep up. thanks
There is a group of us going to a local awd dyno, last year we used 4th gear but someone suggested that 3rd gear would be a lot easier on the drivetrain. Would the numbers be the same or would 4th give you lower #. thanks
I was thinking of upgrading my gt13 to a SBR bolt on gt35r(t04e 4inch shroud) but with only 2.0l worry about the spool up a little. Also I don't really want to go beyond the stock 7500rpm limit. Any suggestions are welcome . . I just don't think I can get much more out of that turbo. I'm running...
Hey, What would cause the B belt to skip a tooth or 2. I have done the t belt and b belt with all the pullies and W/P. The car was OK for 2 weeks then just last light after doing some 3rd gear pulls(2000-7000) I have noticed that around 2300-3000 rpm the engine is a little shakey. Also at idle...
Hey, My wife has bought a 98 Talon AWD mostly stock(with intake and b gauge). On the way home the car run around 13psi. Over the weekend I have removed the BCS restrictor installed upper/lower greddy piping with RS BOV, ported the stock turbo(very good shape), injen intake pipe, sbr exhaust...
Hey, I just checked my compression and it is even 150psi on each cylinder. A month ago it was 178psi. The car is boosted to 25psi daily and seems to drive OK. Do you think that it is the rings or bent valves, there is no abnormal noises. I usually shift at 7500rpm(HKS springs, 272/272). There...
Hey, I have a GT13(60-1)internal gated turbo running 25psi. While logging 4th gear(2000-7000rpm),dsmlink, I have noticed that there is flutter in the airflow and the boost gauge is clearly going up/down about 1.5 psi. The turbo will flow 45lb/min but the boost will fall off to 23 near 7000 rpm...
I had the TurboSmart BOV in my car for the past 2 years and had nothing but problems with it. It had to be oiled, leaking, and anything over 15psi it would come right off as the little set screws could not hold it. Then I purchased the Greddy R BOV and it works awsome, it is little on the big...
3 cars(2g AWD) 3 different turbos, 50trim, 3052 and GT13 all cars running 22psi, the 3052 and gt13 has 272/272 cams. All other supporting mods included. From a 2nd gear 3000 rpm roll would you expect the "smaller" 50trim(canadianTSI) to pull on the bigger turbos?? I have the GT13 and when...
Is it better to take out timing and run high boost or lower boost and more timing. I'm running 60-1(gt13), dsmlink with 272/272+++ at 22psi on 94 octane and flow 42.5lb/min top of 4th. I pulled timing back around 2-3 deg 4500rpm-70000. I get .7-1 deg of knock(retard), top of 4th 14.6 deg/tim...
Hey, would you want to reuse the ARP studs or get new ones. I'm doing my head gasket and wonderring if its OK to reuse them, there is nothing wrong with them ...would they stretch??? thanks
Hey, I just got this today, got the one side installed for now. 13" Ap rotors plus 4 piston calipers.. can't wait to try it out. The whole set-up weighs 1lb lighter then OEM..I purchased the brakes from KVR Performance in OTTAWA..awsome people to deal with. :thumb:
Here is my latest purchaseEvo3 7bolt oil housing and Earls oil cooler(-8lines)
The cooler bolts right up but you need to purchase 2 new bolts as the oem don't fit(1 is too short and the other too long). You also need to drill and tap(1/8NPT) for the oil sender unit. You need to remove...
Hey, almost finished installing my new baby . Here are couple pics.I still have to install few things as you can see and check for leaks. that thing is huge :D
Hey, how much can you indent the water pipe without affecting coolong. In order for that turbo to fit (gt13) I had to use 2 7cm gaskets and 2 exhaust mani gaskets as well as indenting the w-pipe a lot..?
Hey, Just wonderring if anyone has any experience with the SBR 12- or 13. I was looking to upgrade my turbo(50trim) to one of those. How is the spool up, copressor surge? Any opinions would be great. I'm looking to get around 450 AW hp.. I dynoed 350aw hp on the 50trim on pump gas. below is the...
Hey, this monday we are going to an AWD dyno( I'm a dyno virgin, my first real tuning experience) and was wonderring if anybody has any helpfull hints. what AFR to tune for? timing and boost?? all will be done on 94 octane gas. I now run 11.5AFR(AEM AFR gauge) on 22-23psi and 14deg of timing top...
Ok here is the deal, I have a 95 AWD talon that never seen a dyno and I was wondering if anybody with mph close to my could tell me how much power I'm making at the wheels..

I was tuning my car last week an when I shifted from 3rd to 4th at 7600rpm my tranny didn't like that and decided to break.. So after looking inside i discovered that at that rpm almost everything was destroyed. So i have decided to go all out and order the TRE race transmission, should have it...
I have a build motor with 272/272, fmic,2.5 piping, 3inch turbo back(evo2),650inj plus ALL the supporting mods, 50 trim turbo. What should me 1/4 be. my fastest this year on this turbo on 94 octane (21psi) and stock cams was 12.5 at 116.5.. Once I put the cams in the car pulls a lot harder with...
Hey, I just purchased new TurboSmart BOV and before installing it I applied vacuum with a pump to the vacuum port of the valve and it doesn't really hold much i can't even make it open. The stock 1G holds vacuum . Is this normal??thanks
