Yea I never wanted anyone to think that id want to run 2 intercoolers in parallel to the engine. Sure that would technically cool it twice as much, but the only reason I concidered this is because it should in theory cool at least as good as 1 intercooler but have half of the restriction...
Why would you go to the trouble of having parallell IC piping from the turbo? That would be an extreme amount of unneeded work that would just add lag. All I plan on doing is removing about 6" of the piping on the inlet and outlet of the IC, and adding 2 PVC Y-pipes for the second IC. It...
Anyone ever do a dual intercooler setup using PVC intercooler piping? I saw it on www.jblmk3.com but nowhere else. According to jeff's website, the stock IC has almost no pressure drop from inlet to outlet.....which meens that 2 IC's would be twice the flow...right?
I just finished reassembling my engine after swapping injectors (550cc), Lex AFM, and a polished manifold and the only thing I have left to finish is connecting this 14 inch hose comming from the fuel rail. It has an end that attatches to a bolt, most likely on or near the throttle body...
Yea, youd think the tsrm would have a section about removing the intake manifold....its only mentioned once in the steps to remove the head.
As for my progress I have the new manifold in place but I need to be sure which bolts have ground wires attatched, so a diagram would be awesome...
Can anyone help me find a diagram of the intake manifold and everything connected to it? I just swaped my injectors for 550c, lex AFM, and adding a polished intake manifold. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thats wierd....I know its either fuel or spark, but its a JDM engine with 40k miles and the plugs and wires are pretty new. The wierdest thing is that it ran great all night but started having problems the next morning. What could cause the overnight change?
I just fixed a blown O-ring on a fuel injector yesterday, and after lots of complications, I finally got it running good. This morning, I noticed it idled at about 500 RPMs and sounded like it was missing. The odd thing is that the misfiring only happens from 500-1300 RPMs. The top end power...
I noticed the smell of gasoline and saw a leak near one of my injectors so I took off the throttle body, 3000 pipe, the fuel rail, and everything in the way of it. While doing this I accidentally let a wrench hit the alternator and it sparked like crazy. After replacing a blown O-ring in one...
I just bought a set of 4 550cc tan fuel injectors from an rx7. I know that I need to get new connectors, as the new injectors have a square plug. Where's the best place to find the connectors? How exactly do I splice the wires? Anyone ever have problems fittin these on the 7m fuel rail...
How hard is it to use the 550cc 2jz injectors in a 7mgte? Why do most people seem to prefer the 550cc RX-7 injectors? I know this has been covered numerous times, but no one seems to have a straight answer. Anyone ever used Python injectors? They have the best price Ive been able to find.
Yea, I'm kind of stumped. Most likely, it's a boost leak. I'm concidering trying to shim the wastegate with, say, 2 washers......just to see the difference. How reliable is the stock boost gauge? Are there any factors that could make it inacurate?
I just did an engine and transmission swap from a 160k mile 7MGTE to a 40k mile JDM engine and I noticed that the new engine only boosts to about 6psi. This is strange because with my old engine, after full 3" exhaust, K&N FIPK, and intercooler piping the boost gauge would max out at 8+psi. My...
Obviously, everyone seems to think that you should do maintainence first.....but if you're only trying to get around 275-350 hp you can safely and easily get power gains without doing much. I only have a 3" full exhaust, K&N FIPK, lexus AFM, and intercooler pipes and I've noticed signifigant...
I wasn't really planning on getting used injectors, and if I did it be stupid not to have them flow tested and/or cleaned. The main thing I wanna know is where to find the best price on new ones.
I just did a JDM engine and transmission swap and it looks like my fuel injectors need to be replaced. Where can I get the cheapest 550cc low impedance fuel injectors? I can get a 20% discount from Advance Auto Parts, so I'm hoping to find something that I can get there. Anyone know where to...
Okay, that turned on the fuel pump, and now I have fuel pressure. The fuel is making it into the fuel rail but apparently not the cylinders. Im going to try to swap out my old injectors to see if the new ones might be messed up. Any other ideas?
