    valve stem fell...keeper question

    If an engine needs valve stem seals 99.9% it needs a valve job as well and sorry I don't half ass things ever it's just not worth it for me to work that way as you end up doubling up on the work sooner or later.

    13mm 12 point if they're ARP bolts from memory, studs use 14mm nuts. 10mm InHex socket m12x 1.25 pitch so BIG bolts

    Recirculated WasteGate vs Open WasteGate?

    Only if the rest of the exhaust is restrictive. As for "back pressure" it's just a term used to describe a restriction in flow ie: 4" dump into a 2.5" system with mufflers, where it becomes an issue is when you have ex manifold pressures = to or greater than intake pressure in a turbo motor.

    AEM Tuning.

    Does the AEM do closed loop down there? If so set it's AIM table to say 16:1 or Lambda 1.09 and see how it goes. (sorry for being vague but I don't really speak AEM)

    AEM Tuning.

    I just ran mine way lean on decell vacuum, about 18:1 and it was fine. Have a look where your engine runs at idle on the fuel map then set everything below that lean and see how it behaves. You need a little fuel in there to burn off any oil and crap that's sucked in when you back off or...

    AEM Tuning.

    Decell cut caused huge issues here when I enabled it in my MoTeC, thin race style rings flutter badly on decell when there's 0 fuel burn, I used 1qt of Oil in 600Km's. Just something to keep in mind.

    A few PPS questions - Power Steering

    Don't take this as gospel but I think the high pressure line is different, I've just done the change from non PPS to PPS here but didn't pay close attention as I ended up making custom lines.

    A few PPS questions - Power Steering

    1: Something was leaking? 2: Non PPS hardlines are different 3: Pumps are different as PPS runs at a higher base pressure so uses a different pully

    oil cooler and remote filter

    Andy: I used a PermaCool/B&M T Stat for years and have recently upgraded to a Mocal one, it's weel worth the effort to do the Cooler circuit properly.
