That's why I keep repeating, "We'll need to wait for compression, or leakdown test." It would really help us to know what's going on internally first. It's free to do, and will give you vital engine information.

We'll just have to wait for compression, or leak down results.

Are you pulling these 1uz from the yard? Do you have to go through them, or do you just plop them in do or die style?

That's what I would start with first. Remove each belt one and a time and listen to it run. If the noise happens to go away with whatever belt your remove then it could be one of your drive or idler pulley at fault. If none of them are faulty then move on. Check to see if your crank pulley is...

GLK is probably better suited for winter conditions in Canada, eh? Why can't he buy his GLK, and a MKIII for a little weekend fun?

Lex AFM, evo 560cc's, walbro & afpr? Even at full throttle you're still getting 15:1 up to 10psi? It's been said that TCCS will try to maintain stoich up to 7psi of boost. At least that's what I've read somewhere. Then it will just dump fuel and go rich. Before I installed the MAPECU my car...

I found this to be true when I was running my lex/526cc's with only an AFPR. I tinkered with the fp and screw to where closed loop was spot on at 2.75v showing on the Vf readings. WOT though was piggy fat somewhere in the high 9's afr's iirc. I started to pull back fuel pressure to lean out WOT...

I see what you're saying. No, I wouldn't get an AFPR at this point. As mentioned before my next mod would be to install a wideband. I'm sure idle and cruise areas would be fine, but I want to see what it's doing at WOT. I'm sure it would be too rich. At that point you could install an AFPR and...

Not assuming 440's don't flow what they're rated at. Just assuming most stock FPR's run at about 35-38psi which is why most people install AFPRs to bump up the fuel pressure. I never tested what my stock fuel pressure was, but I assume it was somewhere in the mid 30's. I do know when I was...

550cc/min injectors are rated at 43.5psi fuel pressure. Stock FPR should be somewhere between 33-40psi at idle vacuum disconnected according to TSRM. If your stock FPR is dead set at 35psi then those same 550cc's will now flow at 493cc/min. You'd need that AFPR to set your fuel pressure to...

Those who get their turbos clipped say spool is a little slower. I have no personal experience with a clipped exhaust end so maybe somebody can chime in and confirm. I guess that's the trade off of getting it to pull strong past 5000rpm. If your leakdown test confirms a good engine, your HG...

Just talked to a friend of mine and he runs some Lokar units. http://www.lokar.com/product-pgs/exterior-products/exterior-pages/hood-trunk-prop.html You can find these for around $70 a piece. Worn out stock units may be too much force for your hood.

I've always wondered if a pair of worn out stock hood struts would work for guys with lighter hoods. You just have to be careful because they still might have enough umph in them to bow your hood while it's closed. I have a pair that wouldn't support my stock hood. Maybe they'd work for you. If...

Very nice. Congratulations. I'm already thinking of building my retirement home. My two story home butt up against my neighbors isn't my idea of retirement living. I want a single story on some acres out in the sticks. That'll be in about 10 years from now though. I do have enough equity to get...

Yeah, it was time. Is this your retirement home you're working on?

Oh, sorry. I must of had my volume on mute. I didn't think your car was running. Yeah, I would call AEM and get a little assistance.

What is it supposed to do? Go lean? I can't remember what mine did.

Which pistons are you going with?
