About 12 psi, then it begins to get out of it's efficiency range and starts producing some hot air.

We still need to see what it is you're speaking of before any good advice can be given ;).

I'm guessing something gave in the shifter linkage.

Good luck, Dont' forget to check the linkage also, I forget what it's called, the forks? Arms?

Damn, I spent $18.00 on mine plus shipping, and it still crapped out on me after I lost to a stock Civic :3d_frown:

Macro pictures of the scarring would help please. It may just be the soft babbit material that is coated on the cam saddles from the factory, but we won't know until we see some pictures. Don't try cleaning or removing anything off of them until we see exactly what it is you are talking about.

^That's what I was gonna say ;) Faster and cheaper thand sending them back and getting different ones.

There's no need to get your head out of your ass when you post something good and useful like what you just posted :).

Actually, cast manifolds a prone to cracking as well, Try TurboX coatings on the inside and out of the manifold, should protect it quite a bit ;).

Ebay manifolds are the most used ones around here and are sustaining +500HP on many builds, just inspect the manifold for burs and such, it wouldn't hurt to get it ceramic coated either. I've also heard that there is a fitment issue with the wastegate part of the manifold and it needs to be...

That's doesn't solve anything :nono: He needs a helicoil kit. Drifmotion sells one just for the exhaust side of the head, I have one myself ;).

Go to the junk yard and get one. It's the same gamble and you'll get exactly what you want out of it for much cheaper, plus it's JDM yo :cool: just like EVERY MKIII.

Exhaust leaks at the manifold sound a lot like RK, retorque that first and then check and report back.

I gots teh nawz in muh wheel man! Wanna race? :naughty:

Here's the problem, I highly doubt they will make provisions on a case-by-case request and will most likely just reuse the same type of FFIM on the 7M as with many others. I can send them an email requesting these provisions to be included, but we need to make a list of what provisions should be...

Well, what do you know? Hm.... That "warped block" thing really is real! :aigo: :rolleyes:

It's to be expected, didn't you know that? ;)

Well who would have thought? Over 700HP on a stock, ported intake manifold? :aigo:

The stock twins are rather small, versus aftermarket twins being larger, typically not sharing the same down pipe until further down the exhaust stream, two sets of hot-side intercooler pipes to deal with and plumb, versus a stock cast y-pipe setup that a 1 or 2J has, oil line rounting...

You don't want to bore the block unless you absolutely have to, like in the case that the clearances are out of spec from what is recommended in the TSRM.
