  1. i was gona mention the ferd lightning but couldn't remember the name of it heh i am sure if i tred i could refill lco2 tanks at work also .. gona have to talk to the lack of maintenance man there see waht eh thinks
  2. leave your o2 where it is and put the egt under the turbo unless of course you like having your o2 readings thrown off by the backpressure from the turbo.. besides egt's are better off closer to the motor anyways but thats just from what i have read so i may be wrong on everything
  3. looks like is meant to help cool off the hot side of the turbo... hmm neat
  4. very very interesting... maybe a un known suby performance part?
  5. u need dry ice gd??? i make the stuff and can get as much as you need
  6. yup i got all the stuff hoist engine stand tools a willingness to get greasy for a few beers
  7. i'm in the same boat with edrach during the summer i work 6-7 nights a week after october things slow down and i have about 2 nights off then but yeah if its feasable i would
  8. making the center hump wider just requires adding a little extra to the mold pretty much or actually now that i thinka bout it taking a bit extra away from the mold ... had my casting process mixed up oops
  9. heh i belive it only way to make it easier on the cady v8 would be to remove the engine
  10. for fun try a 90 cady front wheel drive with the 4.5l v8.....u almost have to be gumby to get teh plugs near the firewall....
  11. i put a old bosch heated 02 sensor i had lying around came off a 88 saab 9000 turbo
  12. ihad same problem stock computer ovefueling at lower rpm's changed out o2 sensor and it went away i really need to get brave and just switch over to my megasquirt just have 3 wires to connet and it will run of it.. sigh
  13. minehad the oilpump problem sadly i ran to long before being able to fix it so now mine sounds likea sewing machine but still runs fine i am sure i chewed up the cam lobes a bit good excuse for delta cams when i tear it down
  14. right i know what egt sensor is.. i thought of it to but its a stock looking part and there are no egt gauges in this thing or even indications it had extra gauges at one time no mystery wires no mounting holes in the dash ect
  15. ok this is a 86 4dr rx d/r it has the usuall o2 located in the downpipe like all the other ea82t's but it also has a o2 under the turbo but... its not hooked up to anything... any idea's why? it has 2 of them? here is the mystery one you all know what the single o in the downpipe looks like and yes for those with good monitors that is a crack in the wastegate port this turbo also has 1/4" of in and out play but almost no side to side play
  16. so.. where are you geting this dis system that auto tunes?
  17. well if you can use it i have a aab 9000 turbo throttle body its a bit longer than the stock xt4 spidr intake tb and uses 3 bolts instead of 4 but it is off a 2.0 16v motor so it may breaha bit better email or pm me also if your really into the do ityersilf idea go look for a ford probe turbo i think 2. soming or other and a lot of other mazda cars they have a very nifty prograssive 2 barrel tb should wok grea for off boost economy/reponse and on boost high rpm flow
  18. well lets start here your english is perfect compared to mine and i was born and raised in usa 2nd as someone pointed out .. you have a tiny lcd in the spot the radio should be in now myself being a subaru person with a computer in the car. i personally an curious if i am seeing the lcd screen that i think i see and if so what are you using for hardware? and 3rdly .. if i as in your area i would come take your subie!!!!!! and claim it as mine all mine ahahhaahahah !!!!! at least until the police show up then i would say i was just storeing it for bajavwnsoobnut heheheh
  19. jus a wild half snookered idea here.... but check your water temp sensor i its not working right the ecu will think that the engien is cold all the time and cause running and idle problems especially after it warms up as it cannot usethe amount of extra fuel its being given... just a thot also a bad or messed up ma will tell the ecu to dump more fuel than it needs check the o2 sensor output voltage ince thats what the ecu uses to make a fuel mapto run the engine not always but alot of the time andeven idle can be afected by what the ecu thinks it see's off the o2 sensor same with the tps if it hs been moved accidenty or even partially bad you may be at idle but the tps tells the ecu its at half throttle and... well it onna run like... $h1t but that is all just my own inebriated first responses to your problems
  20. oh sure take the easy way out..... i see how you are... but really thanxs
  21. well i have a small delay i gotta do a clutch on a rx to make some moer money to pay for stuff all i really need to do it bolt the sensor on and wire it up and see if it idles then modify the megasquirt and reprogram it to run the edis so darn close.. but i need money for wire/ metal/ wcss /junk oh and i found out you do not have to be dead on the 10 deg btdc when setting the timing ring and vr sensor as you can account for it in the programming the only bad thing is it lessens the total amount of advance or retard you can program into the system depending on how many degree's your off it will also affect the "something broke" limp mode so as long as your not way far off you can still get home like for instance i am off by 1 degree maybe 1.5 so i can only program in up to i think about 47.5 degree's of ignition advance .. but since have a turbo with 10 psi... i would be a bit stupid to be that far advanced anyways i think when i pull teh crank pulley off for a inspection in a few weeks look for cracked welds and junk i am gonna put it on my carbed ea82 block and refine the sensor mount so its at 10 deg exactly .. i don't have to but.. with all this work i may as well do the best i can
  22. well i deeply suspect i have at least one bad rear wheel bearing maybe even the other side so how much of a fight should i expect when i go to change it? any tips? alread have the axle nut socket and a 6-foot tall 3 inch diameter pipe to fit on my ratchet <works for all the font nuts i have taken off> so much leverage you just push down with one finger
  23. i did the same on my s-10 but i used a small portable electric mini band saw meant for metal pipe and stuff worked really quick and smooth then i dressed up the edges of the stud so it did not have sharp edges to potentially start a crack for what ever reason you can rent those little bandsaw's they are made by milwaukie hmm methinks thats spelled wrong but don't cut out your pin hole.. thats bad
  24. everything i drive clutch auto sube chevy i use 2 feet
