    What would YOU expect?

    What would you guys expect to see on your boost gauge after some minor mods? I finally finished up my rebuild a few months ago, broke her in real good, fixed a cripling exaust leak and got just under .5BAR of boost on the Defi. When I put the motor together I put 9.2:1 .020 over pistons in and...

    redline tranny and lsd fluid???????

    I used Redline Lightweight Shockproof when I put my Spec St.3 in with my rebuild and it works well. Redline MTL, and Royal Purple Synchromax are also highly reccomended for the R154. In my diff I used 75w90, but you must remember to add LSD additive. I just bought the synthetic CRC stuff I found...

    bicddp.............LLLLOOOOUUUDDD!!!!1

    That's not fuel cut. Fuel cut feels like a rev limiter and it is boost dependant, not throttle dependant, in a way. If you surpass the AFM voltage limit (read: airflow), you jolt back and a split second later it comes back on line. You have a boost leak whether you've found it yet or not. Some...

    T4 Upgrade - HELP me if you've done it.

    You need not tap the oil pan since there is a location on the block to feed the oil return to. You simply need the right AN adapter and flange. I don't know of a link to get those, but you could start be searching through AN line manfr.'s sites and catalogs. Most places that will sell you a...

    changing turbos

    Yes it is true that the stock BYPASS valve is not adjustable. I suppose you could crush the top to compress the spring, but that is pretty ghettotacular. It took me 2.5 hours to take the turbo off the first time with no real hangups (read: stripped threads). Getting to the oil line on the bottom...

    H4 Headlights?

    The drop in Sylvania Silver Star sealed beam units will be a good upgrade, they will just not be as bright as if you got new housings and the H4 bulbs. If you get H4 style housings you will have a greater selection of bulb style/brand/color etc. The H4 bulb itself is a brighter element than what...

    no way, it does taste good! It's not like sour patch kids sour, more like how a green apple is sour compared to a red one. The cherry and the ice cream is awesome. If you don't believe me I will fight you! I need more scotch...

    swaintech coated pistons

    I do not know of any problems that people have had with removing their oil squirters because I know noone that has done so. I believe that they are an integral part of any good turbocharged engine and are neccessary to proper cooling, but you may do whatever you want. I know that people ragged...

    swaintech coated pistons

    uh, please do not remove your oil squirters... that will completely negate the positive cooling effects of the ceramic coating you just spent alot of money on. BTW, high pressure does not mean that will will have good volume. Otherwise, good luck.

    dude, dried pineapple is the best. Unless you count those cinnammon flavored dried apple chips. Fresh Bing cherries are sooo good too, except for the seed.

    Making the engine stand out

    :werd: EGR and Ch. Can. removal is easy. When I bought my new harness I rewrapped it so I could redirect a few things and get rid of others. The PCV system could be routed to a catch can. You can take out the cruise control, that makes a big diff. Doing the TB coolant hose mod helps a little.
