Wouldn't you still be limited to what your turbo flows? If your turbo was rated at 450 cfm's does it matter what's in front of it? Would your engine really see twice the air to utilize 880cc injectors?

I used to get wheel hop too. People used to tell me I needed new shocks/struts. BTW, are you still running a 1J, or have you gone 2J?

That's good, but... you couldn't have check for that yourself? You could have saved yourself the cost of the tow and the shop's diagnosis charge. Oh well, better safe than sorry.

I don't know David. Are all the vac lines connected? Checked all of the intercooler couplers for leaks?

Faulty wastegate? Sticking open a little? Any kind of boost controller T'd into that wastegate line?

Ok, I think I'll just make in intake pipe with two provisions for both PCV and ISC like the stock system. Ian, what did your 7m set up look like?

So if I cap off the side running to the Accordian, and leave it connected to the throttle body I'd be ok. That would make sense. I'd still be pulling vacuum through the throttle. I'll do that.

Ok, I've asked the question in the tech section about running breathers on the PCV and ISC lines. It's been advised not to eliminate the PCV system as it does serve a function other than venting. So I guess I'll have to fab up an intake pipe in front of the turbo with provisions for both PCV...

So don't use breathers on the PCV valve cover ports, or don't use them period? Can a run a length of hose somewhere else and put a breather on it? EDIT: Ok, I think I get what you're saying. Do not eliminate the PCV system. I guess I'll have to route it before the turbo like the stock...

The accordian hose has two provisions. One for the PCV line and one for the ISC valve line. I'm running a T4 on an ebay manifold and will be running a MAP ECU deleting the AFM. I'm not going to have provisions for neither line. I think I'll just run a couple of breather filters on the...

9 years. 9 long ass years. Today I went to my friends shop to finish up some welding and shorten the downpipe. When I got there he was really cranky and didn't want to be bothered. I then realized that he just got back from the dentist and had a tooth pulled. So I guess I'll let him rest a...

Now that I think about it all that sounds like another 8 months of work. :sarcasm: I hope not.

Yeah. Just need to finish this DP, get a new O2 sensor, and a couple of vacuum lines. I still need to figure out what I'm gonna do about a catch can. I'm also going to start up the car with my MAP ECU delete AFM. I'm going to run their 550cc with smaller turbo map file and go from there. I...

Sounds like it's time to make a trip to the strip and put down some numbers. I'm sure you have a friend with a mustang/camaro somewhere that has a pair of slicks. I'm sure he wouldn't mind letting you make a few passes on them.

Ok, I got off my lazy ass today. But still didn't finish what I wanted to do. Almost done with the downpipe. I got up this morning and went to my friends shop. He has that mig welder there that I'm welding fluxcore wire through. It's ugly, but functional. Not to mention that I'm going to...

I'd look into getting an economical reliable DD first before buying a 25yr old sports car as an only car. That's assuming this will be your only car. Anyhow, welcome.

I don't know IJ, the last person to paint his block purple instantly hit over 700whp. I haven't seen him post here in a while, but I think his name was kwanate or something like that.

Pics? 7mgte, or ge?

:thefinger You know, I was actually wondering about that. I'm just about to go into the garage and get something done today. I'm going to wire in my MAP ECU. Maybe button up the interior. How'd everbody survive the iced roads we had the other day? I actually set out at 3:30am to go...

Probably meant four valves per cylinder.
