    how to raise the idle speed?

    I recently switched back to the stock ECU with a VPC/AFC after getting tired of the AEM EMS I had. Now I cannot get the car to idle with my BC264 cams and oversized valves. Are there any tricks to get the idle speed up? It will just stall if the engine speed goes below 1K rpms. BTW, I'm pretty...

    Coolant leak through exhaust manifold stud

    Apparently I tightened my stud too far into the head, so I guess it punctred the water jacket. So now I have a serious leak that I cannot stop. I tried RTV, silcone thread sealer, and teflon tape and nothing will seal it. Anyone have any better suggestions?? Thanks.

    6262 billet turbo smoking under heavy boost..

    Need some ideas on why my car is blowing lots of smoke out the tailpipe when I'm boosting heavy. I've had this problem ever since I installed my new 6262 PT billet turbo. I did take the first turbo back, and PT rebuilt it with new seals, but the car continues to smoke a lot (only under heavy...

    turbo inlet gasket

    Ok. My dumn question for 2010: Can I reuse my turbo inlet gasket? My original T4 gasket was only used about 50 miles before I took my turbo off and sent it back to PT. I'm ready to get the turbo back, and I'm not sure if I should use a new gasket.

    GT35+AEM+264's = Good pump gas Dyno

    Dynoed on thursday on the local hearbreaker mustang dyno. Before I get to the numbers, this dyno reads 14-16% lower than a dynojet. Final numbers: 431rwhp 401rwt. If you do the math, that's about 495rwhp on a dynojet. This was on 93 octane with 17.5psi and 15 degrees of timing. Plenty...

    Is the AEM worth it for 600rwhp?

    Alright. My half retarded question of the year: Is it worth it for me to install my AEM EMS or just go with a piggy back like the MAFT-PRO? I bought the AEM used whichh was already tuned. I just don't want to be figuring out for another year how to get this thing running properly. I guess I'm...

    New motor won't idle. BC 264 cams?

    Just installed my built 7M-GTE with BC 264 cams.(Still on the stock ECU and AFC). For some reason the car will not idle. It will keep going if I step on the gas, but it will fall into a very rough idle and die. I know there could be lots of things going on, but I went over just about...

    Where to get a 4'' to 3'' intake adapter.

    Anyone know or have any ideas how I can hook my accordian hose to a 4'' turbo inlet. I'm ready to install my GT35 and I'm going to be sticking with the AFM and accordian hose for just a little while longer. Does anyone sell an adapter? Or will I need to get something from the hardware store? Thanks.

    Radiator fan clutch experts needed.

    I am stumped on this one. My radiator fan seems like it is spinning to fast after the engine warms up making lots noise when the engine revs up. Sounds like a truck. When I was running the stock radiator, I never had this problem. But then I switched to a CFS radiator and now a fluidine and...

    Heading to the track tonight.

    I replaced my badly leaking ebay BOV last night and the car is running stronger than ever. And $60 later I now have 5 gallons of C16 ready to burn. Time to represent.

    Some runs with the new set-up. Still probs.

    Ran the car at the track for the last time ths year. ITs been a bad year of racing for me. In April I welded my clutch to the flywheel. In September, I ran with horrible track prep and couldn't put down a good time at all. In early November my exhaust studs decided to strip at the last second...

    looking for a 7M-GTE in MD

    Anyone have a 7M-GTE in the MD area that they want to sell. I'm not really looking for something in great condition, since I'm going to rebuild it with forged internals.

    HKS wastegate problems??

    Now that I have figured out how to hook my AVCR boost controller to my HKS external wastegate(thanks to Chevyeater and a couple others on Supraforums), I still can't figure out why I'm overboosting. I decided to eliminate my boost controller and just route the vacuum line from the turbo...
