I picked up this FP30 .68 A/R housing and I'm wanting to machine it to fit a HX40 can anyone point me in the right direction? I've heard TurboGlenn is the man to talk to.
I'm pretty sure a few of you have already ran across this but I definitely had to share this for those who have not. This has to be the biggest ass hat ever to exist. This is 72 pages of awesomely goodness. Without further a due enjoy!!!!http://www.lancerregister.com/showthread.php?t=224101
So I've done some research and have not specifically found my answer. Me and a buddy are building for 500-550hp currently and have purchased Felpro's Perma-torque HG. My question is will we require standard ARP's or L19's?
Both will be running boost in excess of 30psi. If this helps turbo's of...
Hey guys I have need some advice on upgrading my Frank 3 20G (T04E54 compressor, TD06 turbine in a TD05h 7cm2 housing). Im getting it rebuilt anyways so nows the time. Im going for 450-500whp on e85, Wiseco HD's 8.5:1 comp, Manley rods, built head with DKS272's . From what i read and if my math...
I've been reading up on both methods of deleting the balance shaft recently because I recently bought a built shortblock with a BSEK. But I ran across this while doing a little research which has me a little paranoid...
JunHey tuners, after a rain out at work I decided I was gonna piddle in the garage with my exhaust housing. I found some old grinding stones and 60grit flap wheels so I disassembled the WG arm/flapper and started porting (this is for an External WG off the o2 housing)
Ive put about an hour or...
I recently put a WTB ad out for a few parts I was looking for my build. One of the items was o2 housing w/external wastegate provisions and a 38mm WG. Shortly after I was contacted by a member who claimed he had a Punishment Racing 2.5" o2 setup for atmospheric dump WG. He sent me this pics...
I have a friend that has a TurboXs 38mm External wastegate thats pretty new for cheap and im looking at buying it. I was just curious what your thoughts on these are. Any input is appreciated. Thanks, Jared
Thought I would post this and a little info behind it cause ive never heard of or seen one before. I ran up on it getting on the high way. Its actually classified as a kit car. The rolling chassis is bought for roughly $66k, the engine and drivetrain are purchased/ installed for another $19k...
Not sure if this is the proper place for this but anyhow. I was told by Nissian that I needed to flush the engine on my 03 Maxima as im fixing to roll over 100k. They wanted $220 plus fluid fees for this so I told them no that I would look into it.
Anyways ive heard of people adding a quart of...
So im beginning to piece my build together and ive come to the point where I need to decide on what pistons to run. Ive been talking a bit to a very cool dsm'er (BastardDsm thanks for all your help bro) here lately and hes recommended Mahle or JE's @ 8.5:1 comp.
Im building for 450whp with a...
So im fixing to start a build and im highly contemplating running and building around an E85 or dual tune setup. My question is this, I only have 1 station within a 50 mile radius that carrys E85 (yea im in Mississippi where they dont give a $hit about the environment lol).
Ive heard that the...
Im coming into some money in the next week or so and im on the look out for a good daily driver. Ill be selling my 90 Awd to suppport my build on my 91 Awd i just picked up. Ive got roughly $6k to spend. Im just curious what everone dailys on this forum. Suggestions and warnings are welcome!
Whats up dsm'ers? Im finding myself in a dilemma right now. Im not sure which route to take from here and would like some opinions from y'all. Ive been slowly hopping up my mods over the past few months (Mods in profile) Ecmlink V3 isnt listed but is installed. Since my clutch is going out and...
I feel like my t-bolt clamps (CX racing) are stretching or just suck. Ill go back and check them every two weeks or so and they are always semi tight. What brand clamps are you using or recommend?
Is it possible to install ARP's with the cylinder head still mated to block? I know you can but will it have any ill effects? I ask cause I really need a set put on but my pocket book is short due to buying a SBC this week.
If so how would you do it? Remove Oem and replace with ARP one at a time...
I just found out my clutch is on its way out. Its starts slipping when l hit 15psi of boost. So im looking for a new clutch and i want your opinions. Im putting down roughly 300awhp right now but ill be going for 400-450hp. Its my DD but ill be at the track once or twice a month. So im looking...
I'm getting a whine from somewhere in the rear of the car during acceleration. I recently changed the rear diff fluid to Mobile1 75-90 full synthetic and i noticed it shortly after. I thought it might have leaked, so i dropped the plug and refilled it again. Its still whining though. Any ideas...
I'm looking to upgrade my 2g exhaust manifold. There are so many options when it comes to exhaust mani's and I'm not sure where to start or which will benefit me the most. Im running a Frank 3 20G. I'd like to stay in the $200-$400 range new or used. Can anyone recommend a few?
Whats up guys? I wanted to start this thread to uncover the do's and donts of trying to lower your IAT'S s so everyone would have a good starting point. I notice that sometimes my IAT'S will be 25-30* above ambient temps and this does not sit well with me.
I'm looking for specific ways you did...
Hey guys, I finally figured out how to post my logs. First idle log since I got v3. Ive read over the post's reguarding what to do before posting and how to's on Ecmlink. I need some help learning the ropes of V3 and fine tuning my idle and cruising as im still VERY new to this. I have some...
I'm tryinh to dial in my idle with link and my front O2 is not cycling. Its only showing .06v on start up and operating temp. Also timing is all over the place 12*-17* at idle. If i was informed correctly a crapped out 02 won't let the ecu out of open loop. Is that correct? I'd post a log but i...
Hey all I've been fighting a lean issue after i installed my 2g MAF on tuesday.
When i pulled out the ECU it had been rebuilt last year by auto computer exchange according to the stickers on it. Busted the ECU open go find this.
I was having a serious lean issue after installing a new filter and MAS. Tested my battery and showed 13.8v Fuel pump showed 8.7v
The reason I'm posting is the previous owner said he installed it less than 5k ago. Is this the normal life of a wally 255? Could there be something killing the...
Hey all, i installed my vibrant filter and 2g mas adapter yesterday and now its running incredibly lean. I'm not going to lie the intake the guy had on it before me was absolute crap but on the same hand ran fine with it. I'm stumped as to why a proper fitting filter would cause this. The filter...
Dealing with an on going issue. Car has a slight misfire on #1 & #4. Its not a hard miss so I've pulled the coil pack off. Measured resistances on primary of 1.2 ohms and secondary was 12.3 on a 200k scale. Not a 100% on the secondary but I'm pretty sure its shot.
My question is could the...
Bought v3 but it didnt come with the cable.I checked out ecmlink's site but all the sell is a usb logging cable. Does anyone know how I can get my hands on one?
What's good guys? Ive got a friend of mine that has been running into an issue since he swapped out his ebay 16g to an evo3 this weekend. He said it won't build more than 5lbs and is running insanely lean (14.5/1) at WOT. Says he has done so many boost leak tests its ridiculous, holds pressure...
Just making a post to show my progress since i bought my AWD 3 weeks ago. I spent the weekend installing a fmic and Eibach struts and springs. Took a little longer than it should have but i was by myself. Ill post pictures if it in the light tomorrow.
First got it:
Painted my stocker rims...
I had to delete my cruise control in order to install my FMIC. I know im suppose to get the non cruise cable but is there a way i can make the current cable work for the time being? I'm short on funds at the moment.
What's good guys? Ive been running HD fram filter with mobile1 10w-30 for awhile now. Came time to change oil and i was short on cash so i jumped on Napa's oil change special. It came with mobile1 5000 10w-30 and a STP oil filter.
Changed my oil and now my pressure has dropped noticeable...
Just wanted to show everyone what $37 and some elbow grease would do. Ive been looking at buying new rims but performance parts and maintenance has kept me from them. I decided to keep my stockers and refreshin them. Here's what i bought.Two steel wire brushs (small like a oversized tooth...
So I took off my fuel pump hatch to try to find out what pump was in it and man did I find more than I bargained for. I found out why the smell of fuel lingered after I drove. Fuel is puddling at the base of this.My question is: Is this the feed or return line? It looks to have been repaired...
I pulled the fuel pump hatch open today to see if the seal was leaking cause it smells like gas after driving. I found that the yellow wire w/ blue strip has corroded off the lid. Looked around to find out what it does but have had no luck. Does anyone have a diagram or know off the top of their...
Figured I'd post this in the newbie section to keep the flames of me. In summary I just back in dsms this weekend. I bought a 90 tsi awd in overall good shape. Has a newer motor with 30k on it. Most preventative maintenance has been done as far as I know.
The car is lightly modded with a Frank...
What's up all? Well I decided to get back into dsms after a whole 7 months of sellIng my prevIous 90 awd lol. I just picked up another and talon and it's in over all good shape but my shifter assembly seems to be taking a shit. The shIfter Is very loose, trIcky going into 3rd 5th and rev at any...
Whats up guys Ive been having some issues with my car slipping under a good launch. At first I thought it was the clutch so i replaced the Mitsu OEM TOB , sprung 6-puck and 2300lb P.P. I adjusted the clutch master and pedal according to Jacks Trans Video also.
Unfortunately neither fixed my...
Not sure if this is the correct forum but I recently bought a Hallman pro and it has a 1/16 pin hole drilled in the side of the fastener. When I did my boost leak test it steadily pissed out out air. I read something about its to keep it from airlocking but it constantly leaks and my boost is...
I currently have the stock fpr on the car. I bought some Denso 660's and installed them. Car ran like poo under boost (10psi). Thought it might be cause I don't have an ajustable regulator. So I put the 450's back in, car still runs like poo under boost. Has a small boost leak from one of lower...
What's up guys? Recently got back into dsms again. I picked up a 90 gsx this time around. Anybody from Ms or surrounding knowledgable about tuning? If so id like to set up a meet and get some people together.
A few weeks ago I lost compression in cylinder# 3. Pulled the head and this is what I found. I did this in a WOT pull. I replaced the valve but I'm not sure as to what caused it to begin with. Also new injectors are on the way, I went with some Denso 660's
I'm trying to time the longblock I picked up and it has a BSEK. Does this mean I don't have to worry about timing marks on the oil pump? If so I'd just time #1 at TDC and cams with dowel pins up correct?
What's up guys? I picked this up from a local guy for $50. I've its a XTD stg 4 clutch and pressure plate supposedly. He claimed it only had 5k but it looks a little thin and the fingers are burned a little. This is the first 6 puck I've seen close up so any input is appreciated.
My clutch releases damn near at the top of my pedal travel. After it releases it moves maybe another inch or two. It seemed like it grabbed decent besides the abnormal engagement. Shortly before I chipped my exhaust valve I tried to launch at 3.5-4k rpms and it slipped. Could this be a bad...
I broke a valve over the weekend and I'm looking to upgrade the valve train for future growth. What kind would you recommend? Do I need to upgrade valves or can I get away with stock? I'm running stock cams for now. HP goals are 400whp give or take.
What's up guys, did a WOT pull IN 3rd Saturday and tore something up. It went lean (12.8 ) when I let off. It was missing terribly after I let off. Limp home a couple miles and plugged my plugs. All plugs were visually fine and in specs.... Except this one. Never seen this before
