This is fantastic info! A few years ago they never seemed to carry auto-specific ones and I even knew a few people that bought non-auto specific ones and put them in their cars...guess what happened? Yea, lots of white crap, everywhere. |
Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
Ya, it says auto on them..I can take/post a pic if needed. Thanks to Kevin (sleepy) for pointing this info out to me.
Mike, your pic didn't work.. |

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
So, update time :)
As we all know, I had issues with the old turbo before, and last I was on the rollers, I left with 483 awhp. Fast forward to today.. Found a new turbo ($100), rebuilt it MYSELF, and after a few other things, strapped it back on the dyno. 450 awhp, then made 533 (best numbers so far for this car, back on the old 6776) but we ended up going lean up top. After some diagnosing, we found the pumps didn't get the voltage they needed, so after a trip to NAPA, and grabbed some wires, fuses, we wired in a relay, and changed the power/grounds around. Pumps are now fixed. Also swapped the paper filter in my aeromotive fuel filter for a 100 micron metal one..flows WAY better! Ended the day maxing the pumps, and the injectors. We also found that with this wg and turbo setup, you CAN NOT run less then 36 psi. We turned boost down to 29, but it creeped to 35. I also decided last minute to raise the rev limiter, so now it's at 9,500. Also, the turbo spools 500-600 rpm's FASTER! Results: http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-..._5432572_n.jpg ^ boost holds fine with that lil 38mm! http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-..._1432846_n.jpg ^Shootout/MAP mode. I guess you could say I finally had a smile on my face. With all the issues I've had lately, it's finally nice to see things go well. I limped it home, since the alternator bracket cracked, yet again, but when I was at the SO, I got the new revised style from Jay, so I'll be swapping that tomorrow. Winter list..bigger FMIC (this one is too small-heatsoaking) bigger injectors..2150, 2200's, and perhaps a boost-a-pump. But, we will see..I might just leave the fuckin car alone and have at it. Work on other things. I cannot thank enough all whom helped this process. Jesse/Mike at Primo, John (Pushit2.0), Shane at DB, Chad, and anyone else I forgot. You all are the reason This hobby stays enjoyable for me, when I've thought of quitting NUMEROUS times! It's nice to be able to pick the brains of, and rely on certain people in the community and get the needed help I have recieved! That's it for now! :D |
Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!

Beast!

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
That's awesome dude. The dyno claimed two victims yesterday, your alt bracket and my cam thingy. So, I'm going to need a ride pretty soon, haha.

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
way to go man. insane numbers!
|
Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
Glad you got things sorted out!

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!

He didn't have one misfire issue yesterday at all, same set of plugs he rolled in on. |
Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
Holy fist-fuking monkey balls it works IT WORRRKKKKSS!!!!!
HIGH FIVE swifty! Now swap that alt bracket and get this thing to the track, lay down some numbers! I'm so proud/happy/excited man. Congratulations! |
Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
Ya, I packed a bag-o-tools n spare plugs, but didn't even need them. I also, still need to get a replacement o2 sensor for my FJO, since now I drive around and it says ERR..annoying. Shane turned off the automatic tracing in the ecu with the wideband, which is really only used during part throttles. Still, it makes me a bit uneasy to rip on it, not being able to log/see what my A/F's are doing!

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
Wow, great numbers! Now get that thing to the track and run some 12's! :D
|
Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
