    will not stay running

    A few basic things you should do like checking spark plugs and wires. Also, It could be valve cover gasket leaks oil so badly into the spark plugs area which cause the problem you have. Just do that first then update with us.

    Do i have the right injectors?

    Who would do such a injectors replacement? That's so stupid because not just the injectors, you have to modify the clips also. If you're looking for a set of 440cc, make sure you get gte clips also.

    Idling problems

    I had new plugs and wires. Misfire is still there. A friend of mine (old school guy) said it could be engine wiring harness. In my case I think my valve stem seals leaks oil and that would cause the same problem we have now. Sometimes I smell oil burn on highway. I checked valve cover gasket, it...

    Idling problems

    When I first start the engine, rpm is close to 1500. Then I drive a little bit, it comes back to 700. It also has a little misfiring when idling. On highway, engine is strong and i dont feel any misfiring anymore; I have 2950 rpm at the speed of 75mph (7mgte and r154) I don't think it's normal...

    Tried to search but came up empty... how long does it take to change a stock ct-26

    The oil line o-ring is a bitch to put it in. It took me an hour and some change for just that o-ring. Btw, if this is your first time getting greasy, always expect double or even triple time compared to someone has experience and right tools.

    Evo injectors and valve stem seals questions

    I installed a set of 6 evo injectors on my car. The o-ring is fine and I can order from Mitsubishi dealer. However, there are seals next to the o-ring that I don't have. I have to use the seals from our stock 440cc injectors, but they're kinda loose. Anyone knows where I can get new seals that...

    Engine no start

    Thanks guys, I got the damn fuel pump replaced. I upgraded the 550cc and pushed it hard, then the fuel pump died. It has 190k on it already. Btw, if someone wants 550cc installed, should replace fuel pump too if mileage is high.

    Just checked spark plugs again, they're flooded. Now my starter is bad, I can't test spark. How often does the coil pack go bad? Anyone knows?

    Engine no start

    I'm having trouble with my 7mgte. I replaced the 550cc (evo injectors) and Lexus afm. Turbo is ct26 62 trim, it's running 9-10 psi. I pushed the car hard one time and the efi 15a fuse was dead afterwards. I replaced the fuse, it started again but it ran very rough like no fuel or spark, and then...

    Wheel Fitment & Question Thread

    IMO after reading 190 pages of this thread (thank you all for this useful thread.) 10 width and +25 is probably the best offset for the rear. ---------- Post added at 01:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:02 PM ---------- Sounds great dude, but IMO keep the 275! ---------- Post...

    Illegal Exhaust Ticket... Again.

    I've been reading the whole thread, and I think I should add this info. I had a ticket for loud exhaust with my VA dealer tag a month ago. I said this car is for sale, but the officer said under VA law I still have to make my car legal on the street. Well, I ended up paying for the damn ticket...
