    Ebay Ultra Mounts

    More proof that 240s suck. :) I've run solid mounts for years without any issues. Sure beats replacing the 89+ mounts every year or so because you've torn them in half. Admittedly, it does add some vibration, but nowhere near as much as, say, any DSM.

    Boost creep over 14psi already?... is this normal for my setup?

    My method for dealing with boost creep has always been to add more fuel and set the boost controller to more than it creeps to. :)

    Whats N/A mean?

    Slightly off topic here by now, but nevertheless... N/A means Not Applicable, and has nothing to do with engines. NA means Naturally Aspirated, and means there's no forced induction on an engine. NT means Non Turbo, and means there's no turbo on an engine. Back on topic... pictures will...

    Some questions

    For the oil and temp, it's just a matter of preventative maintenance, and being paranoid. :) Check the oil every time you fill up. And run it an extra liter over. There's plenty of room in the pan for an extra liter. Run good oil - I use Castrol Synthetic 0w30, but there are plenty of good...

    Running hot. Can not figure out why. 2J MKIII... 240* on the highway

    One more thing I'd suggest... I wire in my eFans so the temperature sensor keeps them *off*, instead of on. The only difference is that, in case of failure, my fans come on all the time, instead of failing miserably. I'd rather deal with a dead battery than a popped engine. Maybe it's just...

    Running hot. Can not figure out why. 2J MKIII... 240* on the highway

    LOL! I use an IR gun now, too. My candy thermometer must be tougher than yours, all the markings are stamped in the metal backing plate on mine. Of course, it's also older than me. Hell, it's older than you.

    Some questions

    To replace the head gasket, you'll need to pull the engine, and have the block / timing plate cover and the head resurfaced. The OEM gasket that you have in there now will have mashed into the surface of both, and a MHG needs a much finer surface to seal. When you get this done, make sure the...

    Running hot. Can not figure out why. 2J MKIII... 240* on the highway

    Candy thermometer from any cooking store is about ~$5, and works in water well. Try to keep it from touching the pan, though, or it'll give you the wrong reading.

    Do they serve breakfast? Or do they serve burgers and call 'em breakfast?

    Not until he posts a dyno sheet. :) I didn't even put MY car on the list until I had a sheet scanned and posted. If I bend the rules for staff, everyone will either expect the same, or scream bloody murder - and to be honest, they should.

    You're added. Your wife, on the other hand, needs two things... her own account, and a number big enough to bump you off the list, as you need to be in the top 30 to get on. Added! Dyno sheet yet??? Page references kind of suck, because the number of pages depends on what each member has their...

    opinions please... is this real?

    Or just read some of the threads here that deal with how to prepare for the shit hitting the fan. There is quite a bit of excellent information available, both here and on the internet in general.
