    differential rebuild writeup

    Awhile back I saw a writeup on rebuilding a differential using a solid spacer kit instead of the crush sleeve to set the preload. If anyone knows where it is or has any info on doing this I would appreciate it. Thanks

    Possible low MAP reading?

    I got a new sensor and same results. It is also reading boost lower than it should, boost guage reads 14 psi and maft pro reads 11 psi (baro mode set to read at key on). Is it possible the input on the maft pro is causing this? Is there anything else I can check? This sucks, I've been able to...

    Possible low MAP reading?

    Im in columbus, ohio and searching the internet said it has an altitude of 800 ft. After the car is warmed up from a drive the MAP is actually lower at around 11-13 at idle. I checked the voltage going to the sensor at the plug and it is a solid 5v. Thanks

    Possible low MAP reading?

    I just installed MAFT Pro running speed density. MAP is reading 89.5 with key on and 15-17 at idle. I was expecting 100 with key on and 30-50 at idle. I've tried multiple vac sources with the same results. Boost guage reads 20-21 in Hg at idle so I'm pulling good vac. My question is are readings...

    Low MAP reading?

    I just installed MAFT Pro running speed density. MAP is reading 89.5 with key on and 17 at idle. I think these are low, I've tried multiple vac sources with the same results. Boost guage reads 20-21 in Hg at idle so I'm pulling good vac. I am trying to confirm these are low before I buy a new...

    Clunk noise from under car.

    correct me if im wrong, the preload on the differntial. Put your car in gear and go under your car and see if you can rotate your drive shaft back and forth. That play in the driveline is in the differential, I have the same problem and I'll tackle that another day.

    engine cooling, not radiator related

    to help, you could run a lower temp thermostat. What is the outside air temp where you are at? To have excessive heat in the engine bay in the dead of winter may not normal but in a high heat environment heat in the bay is normal. edit: just read you have a header. you probably don't have a...

    7M hit 18psi with stock AFM and still very rich...

    unless I missed it, you are running a walbro fuel pump with a stock fpr. Any way for you to check your fuel pressure? It may be too high causing you to run rich and the screw being out of your afm will raise FC.

    Intercooler install

    No you don't have to remove the bumper to install that IC, just the plastic belly pan under the car. I installed mine from under the car. The only hard part is deciding which way to use and mount the brackets.

    No spark head rebuild

    Just double check all plug connectors and make sure you got all of your grounds back on. No spark sounds like a ground missing or loose plug connection.

    Bunch of Lexan questions.

    I think it is illegal because if you wreck and your door is jamed it will be nearly impossible to bust it to get out. Just a thought. If it does break in an accident I visualize sharp blade like peices.
