I have a power probe and its a handy thing (when i remember to use it!)

So last Friday I had an appointment with the Scott @ Cleveland Exhaust.

The car had been running quite well, I have been battling some injector o-ring sealing issues. The lower injector seals (between the injector and the intake) aren't...

Tune tomorow. Pulsar turbo seems excellent so far. No negatives.

[tim510]

No idea on prices, probably $2k with an ecu and 'tune'....

Fuel pressure doesn't matter provided it doesn't change.

100 shot is nothing for properly setup motor.


I'd lean towards 500/600cc injectors. Big enough to support the motor and N20, not too big that you'd have a compromised...

We chose that throttle pedal as welding and grinding is possible but also retaining the DBW....

[tim510]

So I've been driving this on the regular.

No real complaints. It is what you would expect from a 1986 4x4. The China 3076 sucks, and the 3071GTX2 arrived. So I got busy when I had a day spare.


Old turbo ripped off....

Not to sound like Captain Hindsight, but the big volume Walbro pumps are really hard to wire 'good enough'. I've gone away from recommending or using them. I'm opting for a smaller primary pump and then a bigger secondary. IE Walbro 255 primary and...

I personally have seen a couple of bad solder joints, and WAY more bad crimps.


Crimping is what everyone loves...
