    Need help interpreting compression test results.

    According to TSRM 128psi is the minimum, how true is that? Enano has some 120ish readings, would this be considered "OK" just due to the car's age?

    The rack was the hard one for me, everyone wanted top dollar for the damn thing and then shipping after that. Already bought the braided line from Aaron at DM sitting on my kitchen table with the power steering pump, tie rod ends and the DM rack spacers... Can you tell I'm single? LMAO!

    I've got a massive boost leak but have new intercooler and hard piping to install before spring meets happen and while I'm there I plan on doing a new rack and power steering pump and lines since mine are all leaking. Going to get started this weekend on that project hopefully!

    1st 7MGTE rebuild...No deadline...

    I'm with Supraguy, engine paint color is spot on! The COP mod works with the stock intake manifold, done it on mine. I believe you have to ditch the gasket over the spark plug galley that you painted up nicely to match the block, which I was going to compliment you on as well.

    7MGTE head banger. Need some input.

    The quote had no details left out, my comment may have but not the quote. I had read a few posts about not cleaning the AFM sensor but only after I had brushed the thing. The exploding part was purely in jest, please disregard.

    7MGTE head banger. Need some input.

    What actually happens when said "joker" "cleans" the AFM? I may have lightly wire brushed the crusty's off when I swapped to the larger Lexus AFM. Is my car going to explode?

    Nicks 89 mk3 build

    I put my clutch and pressure plate on the input shaft inside the bell housing when I had my tranny rebuilt. Never again. Luckily, next time I'll have the motor out like yours and I can use the clutch alignment tool I have sitting on my work bench. Great progress so far, looking forward to...

    Starting on my first mk3

    Great advice! If you strap on a big turbo with out the supporting fuel and tuning mods your engine won't last long. One thing Sheedy didn't suggest is a good quality wideband gauge to check your AFRs while you're tuning. Invaluable information when your foot is stuffed into the gas pedal!

    Welcome to the SM community! You'll find a TON of information on these cars here and I think you'll find that the boost of those turbos can be extremely addictive! Would love to see some pics of your 87!

    DM/CX racing intercooler and hard piping kit question

    Thanks for the replies guys! If worse comes to worst, I've got a muffler shop just down the road and I should be able to get something worked out! I guess I'll see what happens next month when I actually have time to install the new parts!

    DM/CX racing intercooler and hard piping kit question

    Bought a used kit from a guy on SM here, showed up with intercooler and four (4) hard pipes. Pic on DM shows six (6) hard pipes although I know Aaron uses generic pics some times. Can anyone confirm number of pipes, couplers and attaching hardware? Kit is the one with inlet and outlet on...

    Bad Rear End Chatter?

    Start by adding 1/4 bottle at a time until the diff stops chirping during cornering is the advice I got from the reading I did when I rebuilt mine.

    Bad Rear End Chatter?

    I've not heard of anyone using more that 1 bottle of the friction mod in my research. The fact that you've used 2+ tells me there's something not quite right and it's not just going to "go away."
