    550s and Lex AFM....w/o AFPR???

    I was running 550 + Lex without AFPR last year on T3/T4 bolt-on. It was pig rich under boost (10.8:1 iirc) and I have fuel cut around 20psi. PS: but I dont think rising boost w/o WBO2 is good idea... too many things can lead to disaster.

    What is this? susp/tranny problems

    Grimsta Engine feels ok. I've installed standalone recently and replaced spark plugs just 200 miles ago (NGK). Dominus1222 Ok, I'll check tomorrow... May be one of shocks is shot already... At least it would be less pain than cracked subframe

    What is this? susp/tranny problems

    Hi guys. I've replaced clutch recently (put Aaron's stg 3 kit) and now breaking it in (200 miles already). Today I had to go WOT in 2nd gear and when my turbo kicked in my car began to jog... I've let gas pedal off immediately... It looked like something began to slip and then grab again (few...

    clutch

    broken release bearing/snap ring... My clutch died recently the same way... You need to get under the car and see - does really fork move when you press pedal... And if it moves - problem isn't in cylinders... Are you sure cluch and release mechanism assembled right?

    Limits on the stock ECU

    +++ ECU will advance timing if you remove fuel... Actually you don't remove fuel, you say to ECU "engine consumes less air". +++ Something may blow, bc ECU will see low AFM signal and advance timing too much (like it runs off boost e.g.)... So, on the one hand running stock ECU with too much...

    Clutch replacement in progress... got some questions

    Hi guys! At first, thank you for advices in my last thread. I've just removed my R154 alone. It wasn't very easy, but I knew what to do, so It was straightforward... So, I've removed my tranny and found two very sad things: 1) My input shaft has very big shaftplay. Bearing is shot, I think...

    Post your intake temp, please

    Adjuster Well, actually 20$ for DUI is very good deal. I had to pay 200$ few years ago for it... But they could take away my driver's license for 2 years, so I had no choice... IJ. That sucks =( I was lucky to drive this 'test run' extremely rich (10.5:1) and I hope I haven't melted anything...

    Post your intake temp, please

    Silvermk2 There is heatsoak... at idle sensor shows aprox. 60* If I drive without boost - temp begins to lower... If I drive at boost 3-4 gears - temp rises till 80*C... So heatsoak isn't the only problem.

    Where are all maft-pro users? Guys, I'm really worried very much cause my turbo friends told that 80*C is too hot (they have about 48*C under full load, but not 7Ms)... So is it normal (for 7M) or I just have some problems... If it's normal - looks like FFIM should give some more power...
