I wish I had the time. I don't know if I'm a guru, but I know my way around it OK. Calgary sounds like a cool place.

Oh, that's too funny.

Yep, normal 3" V-band. It's thicker than ebay junk though, so don't get an ebay clamp unless you want to fight with it.

Provided it's a clog, it's not the injector's fault. No injector can keep out contaminants. But we'll know soon enough.

I have tuned a TON of cars. My first choice is ID. 2nd choice is any other using the same base injector. 3rd is RC/Accel/OEM. 4th is Low-Z ANYTHING. I sell ID, FID, and RC. All of which do their job well. In an engine where air distribution at WOT can vary +/- 10%, I don't find it's very useful to f...

I did and it worked good.

Gah! Did you buy the one from Belvidere?

Now Indianapolis. Just for a couple days. Then back to Riverside, CA. Then who knows.

I think mine was the fastest SOHC, 12.6 @ 106. Barnett still holds the DOHC.

esteinmaier

All depends on the turbo and the engine. For a typical small turbo like most use as a beginner turbo, you will make around 10whp for each psi of boost except the first one is worth 20. That curve drops off after about 15psi. Bigger turbos make more power, but don't spool until you are at high rpm.

esteinmaier

I've tuned a couple over 300whp. 250 makes it break less parts though.

esteinmaier

Boost and auto go awesome together. I'm not sayin, I'm just sayin.

esteinmaier

I'll be in Riverside, CA for a week. If someone needs help, contact me.

esteinmaier

Yea, that's pretty rough. Is it a SOHC or DOHC? Are they big nasty cams or stock? Somewhere in between? That timing table is about what I would use with a very low compression 2.0 with big cams, although it would need lots of tweaking. That's too much timing above 4k for a 2.0 otherwise. Not that ba...

Buddy, did you ever figure out the fan issue? Was it the relay like I was guessing?

ASP has switched over to carrying DIY Autotune units, which is where Matt Cramer comes from. DIY has been around a long time, and the likelihood of them disappearing is extremely low. I'm not familiar with Rick's experience, quality, and reliability, so I can't recommend for or against using him.

esteinmaier

Injector flow works off of pressure differential. If the rail has 30psi, and you are running 30psi of boost, no fuel flows. If you run 32psi of boost, the boost goes into the fuel system. If you run 29psi of boost, you are flowing off of 1psid. A 1:1 regulator allows consistent psid throughout the p...

A couple people have had to open up a bolt hole or 2 on the manifolds. Cast stainless moves a lot when it gets hot, and usually very hard to predict. Usually just opening up the hole with a slightly larger drill bit solves the problem with no adverse effects.

I occasionally have to work in that area. If I'm there anytime soon, let me know what you need from the US and I'll bring it. Last time I was there, I stayed downtown BA, worked about an hour NW of there. Btw, downtown BA is a crazy party on a weekend night. We were still hanging out at a bar at lik...

They usually made like 9psi on the stock wga. An exhaust leak would cause it to have trouble getting there.

esteinmaier

Looks more like an exhaust leak pre-turbo to me.

esteinmaier

The problem he's having is that with no sensor even connected, 5v is coming out of pin24 on the db37. I've verified with multiple MSQ files, and I promise, the MSQ isn't the issue.

esteinmaier

Don't do this. It will cut into the coupler, and after enough pressurizarion cycles, it will start leaking or burst. That's why the bead is usually farther back.

esteinmaier

Do a lot of logging. Note actual pulse widths during the issue and when it's not having the issue. That will tell you if it's something that the ms is trying to calculate or something external.

Next time give me some warning. We'll get launch running and slicks under it. Watch what happens.
Btw, you ever figure out that smell?

Hey, at least you will always be in style.

This is GLD we're talking about here. Pull up in a neon, they assume it runs 18s.

esteinmaier

Basically, the older they are, the hotter you're going to need to get them to get sticky. Do longer burnouts on older tires.

esteinmaier

He's actually more right than you guys think. If you pressurize a tank with a small vent orifice to 15psi, a specific volume of air will come out of the orifice regardless of how it's filled. (Assuming it's the same temperature). If more volume is added to fill, the pressure rises. So whether you fi...

Naughty.

You know I'm not going to be able to get that thing to idle worth anything below 1200 RPM, right? It's sure as hell gonna be naughty though at full balls.

Wow, sorry you are so angry. Best of luck. Btw, I visit that site as well so if you are trying to not associate with me, try srtforums. I dont visit that one often.

Depends on how you want to drive it. If it's a street car, go 3.55. If it's a drag car, go 3.94. If it's an autocross car, depends on too many other factors.

Yep, that's the perfect street turbo IMO. Make tons more power than a 16g but still just as responsive.
