Those were all good resources that has my brain currently thinking of what I might do. Now all a want is a plan square vented hood scoop that would go about my right side headlight to site above the air filter so it can suck in cooler air rather then the engine heat.I do want some stupid big...
That is awesome advise makes total sense to seal that passage between the fmic and radiator. Do you have any pics of what you did to yours and what kind of materials you used? I really hate to cut anything into my hood or bumper (just because I don't want to mess up and have it look like crap)...
Hey guys,I have been looking and looking trying to find a better flowing front bumper for my 1GB talon. The only bumpers that I can find are ridiculously ricey and look like crap. If you have modified you stock bumper or know where to get one that looks as much as stock as possible please...
I was just curious why you put a 1g dip stick on? I have a 1g talon and actually put a 2g dip stick on because I think they look better, and the 2g oil dipstick fits tighter, (well it does for me at least)
I know someone was going to bring the 2g dipstick up. But I know that the 2g dipstick isn't the problem because it was doing the same thing with the 1g regular dipstick in. but good eye, and thank you for the response.I just wanted to say thank you for all the replies and helpfull hints...
Brand new pcv valve but I checked it anyways and its still good. Thank you for the responseNo aftermarket windage tray or girdle. Its just a stock 6 bolt with about 80k miles on it.I think BogusSVO is on to something here. This would cause a noise which would have a bit of an echo to it...
Hello fellow DSMer's I have a issue and was wondering if anyone has heard this noise coming from there engine while running. It starts when the car begins to warm up, it stops if I pull the dipstick out then starts again when I put the dipstick back in. I posted the youtube video address if...
So your saying that there's no connector to plug into the GM maf but there is one to plug into the stock harness correct? You should be able to go find a GM maf connector at a junk yard and then splice the MAF-t wires to the GM connector that fits the GM MAF you have. I connected my white wire...
Whats up local dsmer's wow I was pretty surprized there was this many on here LOL!. I'm from Meridian with a silver 93 tsi. Kinda off topic here, but if any of you have a extra block laying around I wouldn't mind buying it fropm you. just throwing that out there, oh and also who know a good...
It looks like to me that you have the 1st version MAF-T. Usually they will write on the the chip or put a sticker that says 2.0x or something of that sort. I believe that you can get a pig tail connector and cut off the 1g one then wire in the 2g connector. here is a link to there website if you...
I noticed the same thing about mine too. I gaped them a .28 and it seemed like it was having a slight miss at idle like you said. And so I did the same thing you did and put them at .30 and it seems to idle smoother, but I could defiantly see if that one you had was that much off that you would...
So would you consider 7 counts of knocks crazy? I only get it at mid to WOT and it usually just hits 7 then drops back down to zero on my logger. I'll get 1-2 every now and again just cruising around with no load I guessing this is phantom knock? Thanks for your input I'm just trying to get as...
Oh! okay Thank you that makes me feel happier. As I was starting to get pretty bummed because I didn't want to waste the time putting the 850's in if it was going to run like s*** on going only the maf-t. Maybe I'll just try it anyways and see how it goes:hellyeah: again thank you for giving me...
Thank you for the input and advise. I knew I shouldn't have gotten this maf-t. I figured it wouldn't be good enough once I wanted to put bigger injectors and turn up the boost some more. There's a member on here I think his name is MY1GDSM or something like that I'm thinking about having him put...
One more thing what should I do about the fuel pressure? It doesn't say anything bout that on fullthrottle or at least that I could find. I know that the 1g are suppose to be at 37, but wouldn't this effect the flow rate of the injectors sense there tested at 43psi? thank you any input is...
Hello fellow dsmer's I just got my FIC 850's today and I have a a few guidance questions. First when I got the flow rate chart all flow rate are rated at 43psi. Having a first 1g the stock fuel pressure is 37psi. So my question is should I turn up afpr to 43 or keep it at 37? second questions I...
Thanks for the input I was thinking of doing that myself. I would just like to see some pictures to kinda have something to reference too. Thanks again for advice
Okay DSMer's I did a search for this and came up with a thread that was written 6 months ago, but seems like no one wanted to chim in give there input on my question. So here it goes I believe that my alternator adjusting bracket is sitting right up against my ps pulley causeing them to rub...
I have this same problem. Is this what yours looked like? I know this thread is over 6 months old, but figured I would post to see if anyone else can give me some input. Any advise and input would be greatly appreciated.
Hello fellow dsmer's I have a Apexi turbo timer (pen style). I have the harness that plugs into the ignition harness and I know where the e-brake wire (grey) and the ground wire (black) go. The only wire I don't know where to hook up is the white o2 wire. Does anybody have this turbo timer and...
I Thought I saw them at machv, and I know that GT styling is the company that makes them. I don't think they make them for 2g anymore here's a link to machv is anyone is still looking. :thumb: GT Styling Solar Wing
Okay fellow dsmer's, My clutch pedal is squeaking, and is driving me insane. I have tried spraying wd40, lithium grease, and penetrating oil, but of coarse nothing has worked so far. I highly doubt this, but is there a grease insert on the clutch and brake pedal shafts that will grease up the...
That's why (well at least in my car on the driver visor) it says to let vehicle idle for a min. of 60 sec. before driving hard or putting a load on the engine. Also same with before shutting it off it says to wait 60 sec. if vehicle was just driven hard or with a load. (may not be exact words...
Sorry for the confusion. So right now I have what I would call the internal cooler because the cooler is sandwiched between the oil filter and the oil filter housing, and I believe that there must be a o-ring type gasket in there that may be the cause of my leak. My question is will a 1990 oil...
Okay so I have done some searching and so far I could only find threads on already installed external oil coolers and etc. But what I want to figure out is if a 1990 oil filter housing with a external oil cooler will bolt up and work with my engine which has the internal cooler in the oil filter...
Ill diffently look into those and check over everything. my other question i guess would be. Is how much boost can the stock injectors handle? I havn't bought the car yet. So how much damage do you think could of been done if its dumping to much fuel, or has a boost leak?
I'm looking to buy this 1991 Eagle Talon Tsi Awd. The mods on it are 255 walbro fuel pump, fmic, 16g turbo, full 2.5" exhast, and i think thats it. The car stubles at about 4800 rpm. The cars boost guage is broke so i don't know how much boos its running. I'm thinking that the injectors arn't...
