I own you and you know it. tongue.gif

LMAO they actually make all that shit for Escorts. (J/K Jordan )

The half-shaft is so simple to replace it's almost childish. You will get two new CV's outta it too. Should run you about $100 and you'll need to borrow an axle puller from Autozone or it'll be a HELUVA lot harder. If you can do the wheel bearing you can do this. Get a hanes manual. Also, make your way over to http://www.clubgp.com for an all GP owners club and message board. The local club (of which I am Vice President) is http://cocgp.clubgp.com and we'll have a message board up later this week. http://www.INTENSE-Racing.com for some go fast goodies. smile.gif Oh, 12 second GP here.

The Freeway Patrol are now sitting INSIDE of Downtown on I-70 where the speed limit is 55mph. I saw one sitting on the Mound Street/I70W onramp clocking with a another one about 1/8 mile away picking up the people the first cop clocked. You could NOT see the onramp cop until it was too late. Late last night there was a cop on the merge space between I-70 and the Mound Sreet onramp on I-70W. It's kind of a hill you go over and he is waiting on the other side. Again VERY hard to see until it's too late. BE CAREFUL! They are now finding ways of clocking inside downtownn where it's 55mph and if you are like me you are usually doing 70+ through there.

Hua: It says "Part# 45003-AK001" v.082102 Make sense?

Help! We're trying to set up an HKS EVC (Electronic Valve Controller) and the instructions are horrible! Please help me set this thing up: Mode A: 15psi boost (100kPa) 16.5psi Warning level (110kPa) Mode B: 20psi boost (136 kPa) 22psi Warning level (150 Kpa) We've spent an hour on this thing already and cannot figure out the correct way to program it. I actually think the instructions were translated wrong. Please HELP!

Good point... MOVED TO TECH. tongue.gif

You are the mack daddy. If I can find out more I'll post it. smile.gif

A lot of that I do not know... everything I know about these two turbo's is in here. I'll dig the guy and see if I can find out more... What motor? Let's just say a 3.8l 231ci 3800 Series II. Here are the pics of the T04E he is using: http://www.lynoise.com/images/Dyno/020503/Turbo1.jpg http://www.lynoise.com/images/Dyno/020503/Turbo2.jpg http://www.lynoise.com/images/Dyno/020503/Turbo3.jpg http://www.lynoise.com/images/Dyno/020503/Turbo4.jpg http://www.lynoise.com/images/Dyno/020503/Turbo5.jpg

Whoops, sorry. T04E .71AR... does that sound right? smile.gif Where you turbo guys at!
-
I'm dumb when it comes to the diffrent models and brands of turbo's out there. Help me. Turbo #1: T04E Turbo #2: T64 What we lookin at here? Thanks. smile.gif

A juicy tid-bit I found: Mark: Your car is equipped with one of these packs, is that right? Do you have a spare? Could I come and examine it one night while your car is still down?

You guys rock! I'm getting closer...

Tom: The GTP comes with 36.5lb injectors stock. The next "step" and most popular injector upgrade is a Lucas 009 42.5lb followed by the Delphi PTE50 50lb injector. This is where the problem lies. I will be switching to the Lucas 009 42.5lb's next week. I will probably never need the 50lbs. But this is not for my car. This is for another car that will need WAY in excess of 50lb injectors and I got this lead and want to know as much as I can about it. smile.gif This is way new territory that if true, will blow the 3800 world right open.

Ok guys, this is gonna kinda be a little hairy but please try to stick with me! The story starts out like this: In the GTP, specifically in our PCM's, we cannot run over 50lb high impedance injectors. There is simply no way to program the PCM for anything higher. The next solution would be to go with low impedance injectors. With these we could go higher than 50lb. The catch is no one has a fucking clue how, except one person. I happened to get him to leak me some info tonight but not enough that I can do anything with it. Here is where you Honda guru's come in... Here is what he said, parens are added by me to help you understand better: ---- (the use of low impedance injectors on a GTP)"it requires the use of some Honda parts used in some of their earlier 90's cars" "Honda for some reason wanted to keep their ECU's kinda the same between the different cars, but for some reason they used low ohm injectors in certain cars" "to fix this they put a little silver box in that goes between the ECU and injectors" (for the GTP)"you need 2 though" ---- What in the hell is he talking about? Do you guys know ANYTHING about this? Please help!

WOW! Back from before I had ever been down a track before! Those were the days... smile.gif

With a 3.4 I ran NGK TR55's gapped at .055 with MUCH success. I loved those plugs. GREAT plugs. I now run all Autolites. Autolite 104's for a 3.25, 103's for a 3.0, and 102's for a 2.8. smile.gif DO NOT get platinum plugs. I wouldn't buy AC-delco plugs either, they are complete junk. My car ran like shit with them. No Bosch either, they do NOT make a cold enough plug for even a stock application despite what their book says. There have been MANY tests on them. How many times I gotta tell you? www.clubgp.com/forum and you will get all the answers you need! tongue.gif

It is your car and you can do whatever you like. I won't cast stones. I was just saying what I wouldn't do. Have fun, you'll love the pulley.
-
Nope, not a 3800 puller. Use it of you want to ruin the bearings and replace the $350 snout.
-
I mean I'm the only one that has acually done a swap. I don't have a puller, sorry man.
-
No, it is NOT limited slip. The closest thing we have is an almost limited slip diff made by INTENSE. www.INTENSE-Racing.com Do you even listen to me when I recommend things for you to look at? GO TO THAT SITE AND READ DAVE! tongue.gif
-
Hmmm I'm pretty sure I'm the only one. smile.gif

Huh? Is this going on a Grand Prix? If so: 1. You will have to rent a pulley puller. DO NOT use a standard pulley puller. You MUST use a 3800 approved pulley puller or you will completely fuck the bearings in the supercharger snout and the snouts aren't cheap. I recommend http://www.zzperformance.com to rent a puller from. They are VERY nice and will have it to you in a day or two. Not to mention cheaper than anywhere else. tongue.gif 2. A Trans cooler is not nessecary and I do NOT reccomend them. Heat does not kill the 4T65E, one wheel burnouts do. If he stays away from one wheel burnouts he should be just fine. The 4T65E is designed to run at 200-210 degrees and anything much less the trans will start to be a bigger parasite than it already is. Somewhere to the tune of 25 extra WHP. I am near 300 FWHP and near 350 FWTQ and I do not run a cooler. My trans does not get warmer than operating temperature even with 3.69 gears and a higher stall. Visit www.INTENSE-racing.com for some more fun parts.

You would be surprised how lean you can run a SUpercharged 3800 without it going *POP*. Even heavily modded. After I got my cam, when I killed my fuel pump I was seeing O2's of .500-.600v at WOT. Good non-piston popping O2's should be .890-.910v. I ran the car wide open throttle with O2's dangerously lean for quite a few extended bursts. Why? Because I didn't know what was happening. I thought my S/C belt was slipping causing the surges in power-loss. But in reality it was my fuel pump not being able to keep up. I only found out later this was happening when I stopped and checked O2 logs. This was not on a stock 6-7lbs of boost either. I was running around 11 pounds of boost, or a 3.0" pulley. Our motors catch a lot of shit for being weak due to our Hyperutectic pistons always losing a chip under lean conditions. However this was not the case. I had my motor dangerously lean far longer than it should have with far too much boost and yet it did not blow. To add to it my motor has 111k miles too. What relevance it has to the discussion? Not sure, just tossing ideas out there. smile.gif
