    FFIM noises?

    yeah mine whistles at idle (throttle cracked open) and at low throttle/hi vac situations. 10 in/vac and boost it doesnt whistle. larry at sp said the ford isc ports on the bottom might be causing the whistle. so might try to fill those in instead of using a block off plate later down the...

    Dyno...round II

    holy crap! those a/f's are real scary! see how the curves are real jagged? thats from the ecu pulling timing. i cant see the corner of the graph to see what smoothing was set to. a lot of places use 5. and if thats what yours is, thats even more scary. what is your fuel system...

    turbo won't start

    if the check engine light doesnt come on when you turn the key, nor does it blink w/ the TE1 and E1 jumpered, that means you have no power to the ecu. could be the EFI fuse, or the wiring. not much else it could be. the afc is also tap'd into the power wire going to the ecu, so that would...

    Another "whats wrong with my car" thread/racing the 1320

    sounds like a chicken in your car a 3:15 lol yeah you need to practice your launch. also, you need to leave on the bottom yellow, not wait for the green. this has nothing to do w/ the times since it doesnt start the clock til you pass the beams. just thought id mention.

    Where is my speed sensor wire?

    well, to make big power, or atleast to get more than 12psi you have to get around fuel cut. but the fcd is not a good way of doing it. it will not effect the operation of your boost controller. but if you are boosting and the car studders and check engine light comes on, dont be alarmed...

    Where is my speed sensor wire?

    yeah im not a big fan of an fcd fcd = fuel cut defender the airflow meter measures air flow in frequency (hz). the ecu uses this measurement to know how much air is coming into the motor. the fuel cut function is a fail safe. if say for some reason the wastegate fails, boost will...

    Rear Wheel Bearings

    you would be a lot better off if you could find an assy and just swap that. the rear bearing isnt a lot of fun, and you have to have a bearing press to get it in and out. if you do have the bearing press, or have someone that can do that part, it isnt too terrible, just really time consuming.

    ***Official Itinerary for CHI2K7***

    jay- im sure they will hook up the wideband for you. the reason they dont on all runs is because: 1) its wear and tear on the sensor, so usually for wideband use they charge more money. for the meet they are trying to keep it as cheap as possible. 2) most people dont care if...

    Where is my speed sensor wire?

    glad i could help :) it could be the tranny side. hopefully so. its the easiest to replace and the cheapest. might want to take a look and make sure the downpipe isnt near the speedo cable. ive seen them melt before and cause the problem. good luck

    Another "whats wrong with my car" thread/racing the 1320

    60' time is part of your problem. 1/10th improvement in 60' = 2/10th improvement in 1/4 easy mid-low 14's just practicing your launch.

    Where is my speed sensor wire?

    dammit my internet crashed and didnt post my reply. anyway, yes the speedo is causing the problem. there are 2 speed sensors, one from the speedo and the other from the rear sensor. the ect ecu looks at both of these signals (sp1 and sp2) to see if they are the same. if not, it will set...

    Clean Supra

    i dont understand why they would spend so much money on a car with a salvage title. i think its kinda cool because its different. a little on the excessive side tho. i dont like the wheels at all. not a fan of a huge lip or 19's. with it sitting so low it makes the wheels look even bigger.
