    oil pressure at high rpm

    Let me know what you think of your new turbo. I've got a GT42-74 for mine that I'll be starting on a manifold for here shortly. Sean

    oil pressure at high rpm

    Ron, they had a write up in the new Turbo magazine about wet versus dry sump oil systems. I haven't read it yet but I thought you might be interested. Sean

    vpc tunning help

    The vpc produces a very dirty signal. Mine did the same thing when I first installed it and wired my s-afc in the HKS said to with the s-afc/afr in between the map sensor and the vpc head unit. I then moved it so the s-afc was between the vpc head unit and the factory ecu and it idled and ran...

    oil pressure at high rpm

    Ron, I know from personal experience that running oil psi to much over 80 psi has a tendency to pit bearings. Too much oil psi can wash bearings out. I believe in Turbo magazine they did a right up on AEM 3.2 V6 engine and they sighted problems running 100 psi of oil. I build on average of 25 to...

    i lost 68lbs

    Wheels look great Dave. That was dead on with the color choice in my opinion. The shop/garage looks like it has more room in the one I started in also, plus the banner was a nice touch. It will be nice to see it in person. Sean

    maftpro is working

    If you can build a timing monitor for 150.00 to 200.00 let me know. I would like to buy one.

    maftpro is working

    How is it monitored through the MAFT Pro? Is there a simple way to hook up temporarily to get a reading? What was the discussed price of building a standalone timing monitor?

    maftpro is working

    I understand what your saying, but if I'm not hitting the fuel cut or tuning around it with my vpc/afc then the stock ecu hasn't seen the air flow required to trigger the fuel cut. The stock ecu doesn't know what turbo is on the car. It is still doing it's mapping based on stock ct26/440 cc inj...

    maftpro is working

    wish i could tell you- the brown car is quite sick. it does run, but quite badly. the bit of + press i did see was somewhere around 17 degrees of advance....sounds like it's as we expected- lots of room for improvement. What boost psi were you running when you observed this? The stock ecu is...

    Is there a PrecTurbo rep on SupraMania?

    I have personally dealt with Dave Boykin and Dave Henry on injector sets and turbo's and you aren't going to beat the package deal anywhere. Price,quality,communication,and personality. Sean

    4 inch exhaust and a 5 inch catback or turnout.

    7m Intake vs FFI

    I think some of it has to do with shorter piping, and some to do with getting rid of the swing tree linkage the 7m uses stock. You also get the benefit of keeping things cooler. I went to a 3 inch primary(turbo to IC) pipe and a 3.5 inch secondary ( IC to TB) pipe plus a bigger TB and still had...

    HKS or MSD?

    I tried everything with mine to fix a high boost igntion miss. I changed coils,wires,plugs,colder plugs,plug gaps,and ignitors. I even bypassed the ignition switch and went 12 volts right off the battery and nothing fixed the problem. I then went DLI and once I got it working right(ground...

    7m Intake vs FFI

    Front facing manifolds are nice because they clean up the engine bay and greatly improve throttle response. Mine made a huge difference at 26 psi. With the stock manifold I made 557 rwhp and 533 rwtq and with the FFI I built I made 604 rwhp and 544 rwtq. Sean

    Calling all the 1 Piece driveshafters

    I have had two one piece shafts made by a local DS shop. They do DS's for circle track cars. They used my stock yokes and new u-joints, cost between 125.00 and 160.00, and weighed 13 lbs built out of steel. I have had no vibration issues up to 150 mph. Sean

    Is there a PrecTurbo rep on SupraMania?

    I never had any surge issues with the .68 housing on my SP67. I only lost about 150 rpm in spool up going to the .81 and it is still a blast to drive. Sean
