That would be the car I speak of...it is damn clean and he loves it, doesn't want to sell it but he is getting frustrated with it. I mean in a way I can't blame him but at the sametime its sad to see it go for something that is probably minor. I would have to check the logs again but I'm pretty sure...

No resistor box on the car. He is trying to run 20psi but it's from the GReddy 18G so yea a lot of boost but a smaller snail, didn't think it would be an issue. I will have him gap them smaller again. The air/fuel ratio under boost is low 11.1-10.8:1 highest reading to lowest reading, but pretty ste...

If you paid to have your car tuned then you should be able to contact the tuner who tuned the car and have him send you the .cal through e-mail.

Pro versions only read .cal and chips are burned as .bin. Even if you were able to get the information from the chip onto your computer, you wouldn't be able to open it with the Pro software.

The turbo actually seems to spool a little later since the manifold/downpipe/wastegate swap. Makes full boost about 1000rpm later @ 4000rpm compared to the GReddy stuff, power though is a big difference :) I was looking for the manley H beams but all I can seem to find are some for the B18 and not t...

Need your thoughts...

Well I think I broke some ringlands on my pistons. Not exactly sure it is the ringlands but the compression is down on 2 cylinders and if I am going to open up the motor I am going to replace them anyways. I knew it was inevitable and I really can't be upset. The motor is 10 years old and it has bee...

I have had a set of tuner toys injectors stick open on me so, ever since then been weary of them and would never suggest a set to anyone to buy.

I have my IAT mounted pretty much in the stock location in the charge pipe before the TB. I just drilled a hole in the pipe and JB welded the sensor in there. It's been holding for 5+years now without issue.

Do yourself a favor and spend the little extra on a set of RC's or did you buy the tuner toys injectors already?

I'm not, not going to check these things (the whole idea of the thread) its just funny how this happened in the middle of a ride. I mean now with the .cal reloaded the car runs great, I feel if it were something mechanical I would still have some issue I would be able to diagnose, but there is nothi...
