Why BR7ES and not BPR7ES?

95talonracer · 08-15-2012

Do you have another stock coil to try? How old does your coil look?

93gtpeater · 08-15-2012

You could have a bad plug. I know you said they are brand new but one could be bad. I had that happen to me before. You spark plug wires could be shorten out. You have a good battery and volts?

Better yet, what are their resistances?

95talonracer · 08-15-2012

Did you also try new quality wires?

GsXtUrBo98 · 08-15-2012

I have Taylor 10mm wires that I bought just before Brainerd last year. I have an extra set of plugs that I could throw in there and see if it does anything.. One coil was bad last year so I swapped it out and all was fine. I have a brand new yellow top battery in my car as well.

No reason, I actually run bpr7es, but wanted to try br7es heard some good things plus seems like no-one stocks bpr's up this way.

93gtpeater · 08-15-2012

Do you have a volt gauge to make sure you have enough volts? Somebody last year had a problem they werent getting enough volts. just throwing stuff out there try to help.

**Shane@DBPerformance** · 08-15-2012

We usually use the BR plugs on nitrous cars and maybe some crazy high builds. Might lose some compression ratio with the short plug though.

I don't.. Both times Shane tuned it I had a alternator cel.. I might just get a new alternator and see what that does.

GsXtUrBo98 · 01-20-2013

What alternator should I get? I've heard a saturn one is good but also a galant vr4 one too? which is better? I want to get this thing ready for proving grounds this year! gonna be a beast if my plans pull through. I'm keeping my current setup but want to fix the break up issues and see if I can turn up the boost to make the 600awhp mark. I want at least 35 psi as I made 542awhp in shoot out mode on Shanes dyno. Whatever it takes and let er buck!

turbotalon1g · 01-20-2013

The galant one will just bolt right up, have you checked your grounds?
I'd add some too, it can't hurt.

GsXtUrBo98 · 01-20-2013

Ya my grounds are legit. I guess i could add more but the alternator cel has been there for years.. Lol i know i suck ha ha

GsXtUrBo98 · 03-10-2013

I picked up a new/used alternator from Nick (Cornfed2.4) but I'm running into probelms. No fuel pressure and I'm not hearing my fuel pump turn on at all... I am no wire wiz so this sucks.. I checked in line fueses and they all seem legit so I'm not quite sure where to start.. I know I should be checking voltage but I suck at doing that lol. Wiring is the worst of my abillities of working on my car.

I want this thing ready for proving grounds this year! haha

**4seasons69** · 03-10-2013

Is the car at your place? I could maybe swing over sometime this week or next weekend and help you with it

C3L1CA · 03-10-2013

Maybe check the fuse on the boost a pump. Mine blew once which left me stranded with no power going to the pump.

**CornFed2.4** · 03-10-2013

+1 for what brad said. There is also the mpi relay under the dash that may have gone bad. It's a gold box located under the radio on the right side.

Same thing happened to be with your old BAP... Except I was at RF. I had to jumper wire it to run again and get home.

GsXtUrBo98 · 03-10-2013

I checked all in line fuses including the BAP.. And yes it'a located at my place still. That would be cool if you were able to swing by and give a hand sometime this week.
