I agree here, there's no telling what he did when doing the conversion or how he did it for that matter. Did he know what he was doing? Does he have all the right sensors and installed correctly? Sure the engin looks bolted down right, but the price of the car all depends on it's driveability...

I would change ANY oil and oil filter at or before 3000 miles (that's assuming you don't have fill it up periodically like i do) just to be on the safe side of things. Mobil 1 has that 15000 oil, i think that's a bunch of b.s. Changing your oil is one of the most important things you can do to...

Eh, I just call it a little piece of mind. ;)

I've got a 3" exhast (well half one, stops at the test pipe) and i boost really fast and hard (stock psi for now). My car came with the pacesetter catback (2.5") and I couldn't spool for shit when I put it on (that's why I've just got half of one right now. I'd say your problem is in the piping...

One thing stuck out to me like a sore thumb, you have just about everything fuel wise you can get except for one thing...LIPP makes a larger fuel rail for cheap (like 150-170ish) that would pretty much top off you fuel needs, as far as coil packs, there was a guy on ebay making a kit to use 2j...

Maybe your afm is reading incorrectly, that could cause it to be rich, but our cars are know to run that way ne ways. I doubt they're suppost to run THAT rich though. I'd say the speed cable is broke, time for a new one. Check the valve cover gaskets and make sure they are in correctly and no...

I'd say the speed cable is broke (mine is too). Good luck finding one for a decent price.

jscspeed.com is good, you can buy bolt on turbo kits (boss 550) using the stock manifold from suprasport.com, and ebay.com for those little things that are hard to find that need replacing on your car.

I never let my gas get below half a tank just because I don't want the pump to suck up the sludge.

That could probably explain your problem right there, ebay brand. It could have took a dump on you man, but try the things I sugested in the other thread first before you decide to another one. If it looks like you will need a new one, get the name brand. Yeah, it's gonna cost you, but you...

Follow the vacume line that's connected to it to it's end where it goes into the intake manifold. Make sure that there are no leaks on that hose. If not, then check the o-ring on the BOV and the c-clip, make sure it's on there tight. If it still doesn't work, push on the valve to open it a...

MMMMM....Garret, I like. I like where you've got the new resivoir at (I believe it's the one where the old one was) I have my new catch can there and I will be relocating my battery and putting my new resivoir snugged up to the bumper.

I'll give you .05 for the mbc.... What?! Hey, I'm just trying to keep you guys competitive. Besides, that's the difference between the prices in the two. What's that?.......No deal....... Oh well, couldn't hurt to try. J/K.......lol

From what I can see out of these pictures you keep your engine bay very clean, great job. Hell, your turbo looks so clean that you'd think it was new. I wish I could get me engine bay as clean as that.:3d_frown:

No disrespect intended, I just thought that the spark plug was like WAY larger than the stockers. If you helicoil it you would prob have to pull the head due to metal shavings.

I find that amazing, never heard of someone trying to put a bigger spark plug than would fit into a head, and actually making it fit! That person needs to stay away from cars IMO. Edit: How much larger was that plug?

That could explain a lot, I would never buy a turbo off of ebay unless it was proven that it was an actual NAME BRAND turbo and BRAND NEW. I bought an upgraded CT-26 off of ebay from a buyer and never recieved it. That was the worst hassel I've ever had off of ebay. I lost my ass on the refund...

Mine did this also, it kinda sounds like a SSQV except quieter due to recirculation. Mine did this from the very point that i bought the car so i don't know if it's abnormal or not. I do know this: I took my cousin's cooleze upper hardpipe portion off of his car and put it on mine since his...

ROFLMAO I was just taking a drink when i read this thread and almost sprewed the tea all over the monitor when i read the "tagen top" part......lol Sorry man, i just couldn't help it. Listen to what these guys tell you, they know lots about these cars. i do believe the HKS SSQV BOV has an...

I agree here, it's his money and car, he can do whatever he wants with both, if any of us have an opinion that's not being conductive towards the comunity, then we need to keep them to ourselves.
