    understanding more about boost spike

    I have done a lot of searches for boost spike in the forums. I have found plenty of information but I just wanted to clarify a few things:1) a typical stock t25 will normally begin experiencing boost spike when the car is modded through pressure fluxuations (exaust, icps, MBC)2) small...

    Ebay spark plug wires...

    agreed, just commenting that the price is probably pretty close comparatively and its just worth it to spring for the NGKs (and get them in the color you want :thumb:)

    Ebay spark plug wires...

    whats the price difference vs. NGKs?

    boost gauge set up

    This is definitely the most accurate way to install a boost gauge. Also, the easiest way to get through your firewall is probably using the steering wheel boot (behind your break peddal). Also - if you have a dimmer the wires should usually set up as:red - live, 12v black - ground orange -...

    one quick question

    Chugging Idle/almost dies

    also double check that the ignition wires are all connected properly and to the correct cylinders, it sounds like you're misfiring

    Mounting gauges in the center console.

    looks great! the turbo timer can pop in easily, I'm sure it'll look sick!

    Do I have a bad Turbo or boost leak or both???

    oh and the gas thing happens occasionally to me as well. It seems to happen on start up, a boost leak shouldnt be causing this.
  17. SpyderDSM

    Do I have a bad Turbo or boost leak or both???

    if you aren't experiencing misfires i think your plugs are fine. i think you NEED to do a boost leak test before you can decide anything. white smoke could mean awful things for your turbo but if you can check the shaft play i would do that as well.1) boost leak test report back :thumb:

    Minor Mod's. what should I do

    there are a few places that sell a full kit but typically u'd buy the afpr separately (aftermarket fuel pressure regulator)EDIT: also for the boost controller you could just go with a NXS motorsports one (find them on ebay, say u have a dsm and its $15 shipped)

    Godspeed intercoolers + turbos. Are they any good?

    By far the best thing you can do at this point. How crappy is that 4g63 anyway? if you got it for 700 i assume it would take some work but it sounds like you are getting a good deal for the swap... maybe ull get a good deal for fixing the 4g63? What you are doing makes very little sense (sorry...

    Firing Order [Merged 5-7]

    what exactly is your idle problem? do you have / know the engine codes if you have a check light? (if you suspect a problem with your plug wires they might be arc'd)

    alternator tensioner help

    nut should be loosened, then tighten the belt and test, then tighten the nut back up. similar to above but you can also use a piece of wood or equivalent to push the alternator into possition. my problem was the alternator being too close to the center of the engine bay, so it sweaked and always...

    alternator tensioner help

    agreed, this is a good general rule. however, the new belt will slightly loosen over time. make sure you don't have any dimming of your lights at idle and if you start hearing a squealing noise at idle you know the belt is loose again. you dont want it too tight though, no sense in cracking a...

    Exhaust Choices for my gsx

    similar to what i did, you do have tons of options when it comes to this part of your modification, the cheapest stainless steel option is always a great one, you just might not get the sound you're looking for, mine sounds great though (its basically a full turboback custom but it was done by a...

    Another BOV thread

    i have a greddy full auto turbo timer if you want, but you basically dont need one at this point and if you get a bov you should really have hard ic pipes. otherwise u wouldnt necessarily need one, you could just replace your stock one. (id highly suggest hard pipes!! you'll notice a slight...

    Exhaust Choices for my gsx

    i agree that out of the two you should choose the apexi over the megan.. buschur is sounds sweet but my vote overall would be the apexi. good luck :thumb:

    anybody know a better solution for recirculation tubing?

    pretty sure this has just as high a melting point and it's made of thicker material. I'm actually more comfortable with the braded hose i posted:thumb: but to each his own

    anybody know a better solution for recirculation tubing?

    just looked at my first post and realized I originally was going to get the clear tube and ended up with a black braided one b/c it looked more stock :ohdamn: anyway, it's still a braided tube and you could use a clear one all the same. pic will be up tomorrow.

    anybody know a better solution for recirculation tubing?

    Home Depot has tons of options, I used a braided clear tube that had an insanely high melting point. It was just a straight tubing so i heated up some water in the mirowave, soaked the piping (which is hard when at room temp and maliable at just below 110F) and just bent it and clipped it on, it...

    Help!!!! Car running way to rich!!!

    just because the bov isn't recirc'd wouldn't mean it's going to smoke the way he's describing. +1 on the blown turbo. especially if u pushed it and it held tight on 12 psi.. idk yeah agreed on the boost leak but that wouldn't explain smoke either. boost leak test first, then tell us where you're at

    boost spike in higher gears? maybe?

    boost spike in higher gears? maybe?

    hey guys. so my car has been the equivallent of misfiring WOT in 4th and 5th gears. This happens when i am cruising and flogg 4th or 5th AND it happens if I'm pulling onto a highway ramp in 2nd gear and run it thru the gears (2, 3, 4...) and as soon as i hit the 5k-ish mark it might start...
