sure will as long as you have everything I need for the swap. engine swaps aren't free though so it may cost you a bit of green

...and he doesn't mean the kind you smoke.

Kris, I took the head down to the machine shop today to get it decked, cleaned, valve job, and bronze valve guides pressed in. He said turn around was about 3 days so it looks like I'll have an extra week to get everything ready to do the install since you'll be on leave. I still can't decide between the composite or MLS hg...

Well I actually worked on the car the other day and put my mbc on, finished hooking up lines. Pretty sure I messed up somewhere, although my wideband isn't connected to the O2 sensor it doesn't light up or anything. Still need to wire up my fans wich I have no idea how to do, can't find a damn 3" dejon intake anywhere, other than I'm g2g. Really want this thing running this weekend

with the arp's the composite with copper spray wwill suit you just fine. its recommended with the mls that both sealing surfaces be planed to get a proper seal. the composite will give you leeway for not having the block decked and will also blow before the mls meaning if something does go wrong it will go first before more expensive stuff does.

chuck i had full intentions to come down and help you but im still at work right now it really sucks working all freaking day when you had plans. with a 1g you just have to wire the fans into the oem plug its not to difficult

 

[chuckdog_5]

It's all good man, I didn't get off until 6 anyways. I just suck at wiring stuff up, ###### the reason my wideband doesn't work. Forgot to mention I got a check engine light...

 

[banishedmunk]

its probably for the fps if you didnt run vacuum lines to it. which wideband do you have?

Yea, everythings there. It's just a 1-1 swap with another 7 bolt. only thing that really needs to be taken off the old and put on the new is the cam angle sensor. And name your price, I'm sure it's better than satan... I mean the Mitsubishi dealer.

Aem uego

how did you wire it up. be descriptive

well in that case ill shot you a pm as far as a quote for some work

 

[gofer]

I drew this up for you Chuck since your having problems with the install of the wideband, its SO easy since your not trying to log it in dsmlink or anything.

Ignore the white and blue wires, just tape them off because the only ones you need to hook up are the red and black.

You must be logged in to view this image or video.

for the 12v source i just used the radio fuse for that, but i think i will just have to redo that stuff. maybe my wiring is just a little loose where i had to splice in the new wires.

As far as the check engine light, im not too sure, right now my bov is venting, other than that i THINK every thing is fine. im on the range tomorow and all next week so i will have a lot of extra time so ill be looking into it more. still really need to find a 3" dejon intake

 

[banishedmunk]

check the fuse where you plugged in at it may have popped the fuse granted the gauge doesnt draw that much. I always tap into the main ignition wire in the steering column but thats me.

 

[chuckdog_5]

I'm not that smart to do that

Chuck, did anyone ever tell you that you have 21 chromosomes?

 

[bboyalan]

...I always tap into the main ignition wire in the steering column but thats me.

I also tap into the ignition harness. My turbo timer is powered through there (obviously) as are my AEM wideband and tru-boost gauges.

Well whatever your I.Q. is I was just joking, who knows though you might still have 21 chromosomes and don't know it.

I don't like playing with my ignition because I don't want my wire taps to leave me stranded because of a loose connection. I source my 12v off of my cigarette lighter since it has nothing to do with the car actually starting.

2g wire colors are probably different but basically you pull out your cigarette lighter and with a DMM (digital multimeter) test the voltage readings with the key in the "ON" position. The one that shows 12VDC is the one you tap into for the red power wire off the WB. To check the ground you move the switch on the DMM to check resistance (it looks like an upside down U with feet). Touch the chassis of car with one meter lead and the other on the black wire going to the back of the cig lighter. If the DMM shows a ZERO then its a good ground...

FML I have no tools

I have no business owning a dsm right now

Hey guys, does anyone have a boost leak tester? I live near National city. I drive a 1g tsi awd Thanks -Luis Jimenez

 

[Nito15]

vergetsi here has a boostleak tester. But i am not sure if his own car is running yet so he might be needing it.

 

[banishedmunk]

What size do you need as they can easily be made at home depot

Black Betty is safely parked on the streets of Point Loma, and I even locked her doors so I don't find any homeless sleeping in the back seat.

The UPS chick came by and said there was a heavy ass package that she couldn't even carry to my door, I had to go out there and hump it out of the truck. After I signed for it and got it inside I realized it wasn't even my parts, your crankshaft is in. DICK.

 

[chuckdog_5]

ok so i mess with the dsm today and got the wideband working. but heres the thing, dont make fun of me, i have the WB power source hooked up to the fuse for now just to make sure its working. i took a pic to see if this is the cig lighter cord your talking about corey.

so now im trying to figure out the fan situation thanks to the previous owner. i think this is the stock fan wires but not sure at all, any input

still throwing a check engine light but am gonna wait till i get the new intake on to see if that fixes the problem
