Re: KA24DE 6 Speed VQ

What did you use for a driveshaft? Are the output splines and shaft the same? Im looking at a kit by LOJ that looks good but not keen on buying a new DS as well.

Re: KA-T build stuck

X2 on exhaust leaks, I thought I was good but it turned out my cheap ebay wastegate was leaking bad. I took it out, took it apart, re-lapped/seated the valve and tightened down components and now my AFRs are almost perfect. I am running open dump so I'm wondering how/ if that is affecting readings

Re: Blow through maf users check in

FMIC
10lbs
N62

Mounted just under the battery tray location.

I got an aluminum housing from MAP performance. I highly suggest it. I'm pretty retarded with soldering and it was straightforward of a swap from the stock to their housing. And it seems very solid not worried about leaks at all.

Re: Spun Bearing Questions

To resolve this thread, I had to pull everything apart to check the bearings... when I finally get to the machine shop to get their opinion, it turned out the flywheel was loosening O_0 ... on my initial inspection it wasn't apparent because it was galled onto the center ring and felt sturdy. I had ...

Adjusted Idle, now runs like trash.

So after resolving some issues (flywheel bolts loosened) I put my car back together and she was running pretty great. For about 2 weeks. AFRs around 14.5-15.5 at idle, idling at around 1k. I double checked the timing with a light and it was maybe advanced just a touch but close to 20. Yesterday I wa...

Yes fresh oil 10w30 full synthetic. Unfortunately no oil pressure monitoring. There were a few dead cranks before I changed the oil but even on swapping the oil the old stuff looked brand new so I don't think it was that.

Cool i know the CR of my pistons, but i was going to order an Enthalpy board so i was under the impression there would be no secondary tunes (that i dont pay for) and it would be plug and play.

Re: Automatic Problems

Pretty sure it's a MAFS issue, ran an OBDII sensor on it and came up with the relevant code. also when i would unplug the MAFS it would act the same as it would when it was having the issue.
