so u gonna be up and running for dgrr?

 

Fix that wastegate. That is a blown motor waiting to happen.

I had to notch the air intake area as well.

 

kane, that vr u put the esmeril on is aquadageo11's car

that being said, i have no clue who that is lol

 

Once i get it all running and fully checked for leaks and what not. I will be routing it back towards tranny and maybe dumping to exhaust system. So maybe end of week ill have that done.

 

aquadageo11?

Maybe - I don't know his forum name.

 

according to this quote, apparently it is

 

Oh yeah, I definitely trimmed the 90* Couplers with some scissors. Definitely needs to be done. Trimmed some of the other ones too. Was plenty of coupler to spare.

 

has anyone toyed with the idea of applying a lubrication coating on the apex seals and double springs? Also ceramic coating the side seals and springs/exhaust ports?

So im also having a problem starting mine. Did start the last few times and only thing i did was remove/add coolant. fix oil leak/add oil. and i worked on my gauges. Now im getting a weird sound coming from intake area. Sounds like this : "eeeeeeh" continuously. Starter does crank it over, but i cant get a spark. Esmeril coils, 8mm wires, new plugs, all tight on there. My oil, and cel on.

Fixed oil light, oil sensor unplugged. lol

 

A high pitched electronic "eeeeeeee" when the key is in the ON position? I was wondering if anyone else noticed that. I only noticed it when I was looking for a problem, I didn't know if it was just my car or not. As far as I could tell, I thought it comes from the throttle body.

Or maybe there is a bomb in my car. ::shrug::

 

yes only does it when on position.. one of those vac solenoids perhaps??

 

I don't know can you record it?

 

it sounds like the normal noise from the electronic throttle .....

 

yeah that high pitched noise is the electronic throttle body. Mine is pretty loud.

And Snowflake, check your fuses. You did a gauge install (assuming you wired them too) so it's possible you popped a fuse.

 

Actually i never did wire them. lol they still unplugged. I did tap them into the cigar fuse on inside gauge panel, will check that tomorrow morning. Do you guys know any good connections to wire 3 aem gauges? need it somewhere around the steering wheel/fuse box.
Thanks

 

Kane my intx light is dead too.

 

did you check your main fuse, and engine fuse. Both of those were toast for me.

 

Was it ever working?

Did you change the wiring on it?

 

How about the Int-X Fuse, did you check that?

 

Hey kane you can change my turbo to a Garret T4 60-1 journal bearing.

 

Well i checked all my fuses, don't think i missed one. Car will crank over, no spark then stops its self.. So possible flood?

 

tried push starting it ?

 

car is on stands. need to check for leaks before i put it on street. Gonna try deflooding tomorrow.

 

Crank + no start always makes me think flood as the prime suspect. But you should have green lights on your Int-X when key is ON, is that the case?

 

yes green and yellow on.
