    Over boosting

    All I did was put RTV on the stud. Seems to be working fine.. if it fails it gives me an excuse to rebuild.. but it doesn't seem like it's going to. Sent from my terrible HTC Rezound using Tapatalk. Don't buy HTC...

    Oil leaking from intercooler

    Normal? Not really. Usual for old 7Ms and CTs? You bet. If you really wanna see if its from the inside of outside boost leak the intercooler and piping while you're at it. No boost leak = no oil leak. Sent from my terrible HTC Rezound using Tapatalk. Don't buy HTC...

    Track Car Setup - Advice Needed!

    Probably more of a safety thing, as it does next to nothing for chassis stiffness. And saying we're making claims based on empirical evidence of which the source and context of information is unknown is just false. Hvyman and I have both given you factual reasons why they do next to nothing for...

    Charcoal canister question

    You're thinking of the VSV (vacuum switching valve) that goes to the EGR. that needs to be blocked off. The other VSV is under the intake and goes to the FPR. The BVSV (Bi-metallic vacuum switching valve) is on the water neck and that goes from the TB to the charcoal canister. That is what...

    Crazy how fast your life can flash in front of your eyes..

    The difference is targa vs. hardtop. There is way more metal in a targa than a hardtop. My 1990 fullweight turbo hardtop weighs 3530 without me in it. And thats with 2 10 inch subs in the hatch. If I were to strip the interior from the front seats back, get rid of the subs, swap out the front...

    does the CEL flash for knock?

    When I had a code 51 it just had the CEL on solid. Not over 3k, not flashing. Also had very little power.. Easily slower than a 7M-GE lol

    Oil leaking from intercooler

    As I don't have a factory turbo setup, I don't know how the oil cooler lines are ran.. But could they be leaking onto the intercooler? That or the power steering cooler? There is no banjo bolt on the turbo return, that's the feed. And that would not cause the oil on the intercooler lol

    Track Car Setup - Advice Needed!

    What you're feeling is a placebo effect. Brought to you by my incredible MS paint skills.... Edit: Thinking about it.. I think the arrows should have gone in the same direction.. Not opposites. But thats irrelevant.

    Wont go into gear, video inside

    I have to say, you have one of the smoothest sounding 7Ms I have ever heard.. By that I mean like no valve tick at all.. When my clutch release hub failed, I just had a sort of metallic rattling, not the clanking like you have. Also, the clutch wouldn't disengage, so obviously no shifting into...

    Is this on a 7M or 1J? If its a 1J, the internals of the head look almost identical to a 7M Sent from my terrible HTC Rezound using Tapatalk. Don't buy HTC...

    8an oil pump feed mod question

    If you're seeing 100psi on cold starts un shim your pump a little bit. I shimmed mine ~4mm and the relief valve is at ~80 psi. Personally, I would definitely jump for the ARZ hard pipe. I'm thinking of redoing my turbo drain in a -10 hard pipe.. I've heard the rubber in the soft lines just cant...
