: Self Appointed Mission :

[Tobuk]

So, whats the final count on who all is comming sunday? Have we decided where in the parking lot we are going? Also, Clipsit, maybe you can drop by here sometime tomorrow or friday to check this part out so i can try and replace it to get out there sunday.

As far as a meeting spot, I suggested earlier that we meet on the side of the lot where the Washington Mutual bank is. It's the farthest parking away from the mall and there are always tons of spots open on that side (people always park by the Borders/Starbucks)

Would that work for people? Any other ideas? Should be pretty easy to find people... hopefully.

 

[obsession92tsi]

works for me. i got one more dsm comming out there with me too.

Just got my new boost gauge all wired up! 11psi FTW!! Spikes to 13psi in 2nd gear I've noticed...

I have to work Sunday afternoon but I'm going to do the absolute best I can to get that day off... Hopefully me and my red 94 GSX will be there!

 

[BigRand]

Hey keith, call up Mike tomrrow he called you caused he knows what sensor you broke and was trying to help keep it.

For sure I will PM you my number and we can meet up. I am busy this week, but I probably can drop by and take a look, but it sounds like someone may know what the piece is that is broken or acting up? Let me know though still if you want me to come out?

So, whats the final count on who all is comming sunday?

Lets for sure get a count on who is for sure coming...a yay or nay...just post it whenever?

As far as a meeting spot, I suggested earlier that we meet on the side of the lot where the Washington Mutual bank is.

This also sounds like a good spot too. I am not as familiar w/ what used to be known as the seatac mall, but this works for me, anyone have any reason, say why now or forever hold your peace? Sunday can't come quick enough can it.... If you are/or have read this thread and haven't joined into post, feel free to come still, all dsm's welcome..Calling all DSM owners!!!

I have absolutly everything.. the only thing is i won't have the car painted where i had to take the front kit off . i have a fully molded blitz body kit on there but i won't let that stop me from rollin up there..... whats alittle paint... ....I think i have all the bases covered see you guys on sunday.....

 

[1990talon]

Yes, indeed it is.

I know him actually his brother. his name is david you should go over and talk to him and see if he wants to go. his car is super clean even though it is a non turbo.

 

[Jay99420aturbo]

Just had a quick question though... Should i do the fuel pump rewire???

 

[93GSX4me]

That guy read my mind - I cruised around the mall last night - He's right - The Mutual Bank area is wide open . So -

In the immediate vicinity of Washington Mutual Bank , The Commons Mall @ 1pm

Maybe go to do a few dyno pulls @ Xtrweme Auto Salon ? I'll ask for a bulk discount ... anyone interested in a DSM dyno pull or save for another time ?

 

[1990talon]

Dyon them I want to if we can get a good enough deal. Also does extreme auto salon have an AWD dyno?

 

[NewTurboTuner]

"Yeay" 4 me


I'm planning to Dyno within the next couple of weeks. But I work at 3:30pm, every Sunday.
.....Save the Dyno pull for another day.

 

[NewTurboTuner]

It'll have to be Dyno Authority in Redmond. They've got the AWD Dyno.
Its usually about $80 an hour, but if we can organize a Dyno Day and get 10-15 cars, that price would come down

 

[93GSX4me]

Dyon them I want to if we can get a good enough deal. Also does extreme auto salon have an AWD dyno?

Yah they do although they admit Axiom Motorsports is cutting edge and better . Thats y I like Xtreme , they will tell you whats best even if its not them . GREAT customer service, and nice guy. I'll call him today .

 

[obsession92tsi]

No dyno for me. Work is slowing down or me so im a little short on the mula. So, i vote save for another day.

 

[clipsit]

.....Save the Dyno pull for another day.

I second that! And icksnay on the AXIOMAY...

Me and Rand can tell you guys why on Sunday, but they are good if you want the best prices on parts, but unless you drive a 240, evo, sti, or honda, you get treated a little different...IMHO. I hear they have a new guy, Moses I think his name is, tuning over there at AXIOM, but its up to you if you want to, I won't go there to dyno though.

 

[obsession92tsi]

Alright guys, sonyslave figured out what i broke, and its the boost solenoid. Now, no one can even get me this part but the dealer (or so they all say), so can anyone help me out in this department? Maybe have an extra? Also, is there a way to bypass replacing this? like if i were to upgrade to the GM maf with translator or will i need this no matter what i do? thanks everyone for the help!

 

[BigRand]

yeah I'll be there,

P.S. I've got nothing against axiom, just a falling out that just had to happen, and I was in the middle of it a picked a side, based on the way I was being treated at that time...great customer service before that time though.

I didn't mean that you had something against them, just was trying to get my ponit across... I agree, they prob do still have great customer service, but we each had our own reasons we left, but what I said about them too is true, but not for everyone... I would highly reccomend them for parts, but I currently don't know anything about their tuners, however Jun knows his stuff there, but I don't know about the Moses guy, but I haven't heard any bad stuff...HAPPY TUNING though...

Correct me if I am wrong, but couldn't obsession92tsi, just replace it w/ a GM boost solenoid b/c I thought I have heard of this? Or is it the GM map sensor you can use, or does it have to be a mitsu one, b/c I know some junkyards that might have some for the time being? Or this may be the same part, w/ different names for it... Hey sorry I missed your call too, keith, I will being giving you a call here in the next hour or so, I had some meetins and stuff for work and I work tonight at midnight, so we will figure this thing out though, so you are there on Sunday.

 

[NewTurboTuner]

Isnt the boost solenoid just the plastic stock non-adjustable boost controler?

If yes... Why don't you just add a manual boost controler instead of buying another non-adjustable stock controler.

Here's a cheap-y for now.... and it'd probably last you for awhile. You don have to get this one but if you get a differant MBC just make sure its the ball and spring type.

I got one that I am not using right now that I could sell at a later date or that Keith could definitely use for no price for this Sunday...so he could make it out...Keith, I could run it to you tomorrow afternoon, hit me up and let me know. Lets get you out here on Sunday for sure!!!

 

[93GSX4me]

Ok i called Xtreme , they are moving soon so no on the AWD dyno - Axiom is on wait. SO yes def. 1300 @ The Mutual bank area at he Commons Mall. I will be there 30 min prior to make sure you all see some DSM .

 

[clipsit]

Sounds redonkulous, lets do this...

 

[obsession92tsi]

Hey guys, randy and i were talking about if it were possible to just replace the solenoid with a manual or some other kind of aftermarket boost controller BUT the boost solenoid has an electrical end that something plugs into, so i was wondering if i would throw some kind of code if that electric plug wasnt pluged into the device? does anyone know? I tried calling pina, but i couldnt get a damn answer. Clipsit, i tried callin you again today but i got no answer, sorry i didnt answer last night, i get up pretty early for work, but give me a call anytime tonight because i dont work weekends. thanks everyone for the help! Im doin my best to get out there sunday
