Will do in morning, I still gotta ease it home after work.

Checked the oil, no coolant and no oil in the coolant

I'm at work now , no smoke and in normal driving range seemed fine I'll check the oil after work , if I did pop the head I might have did it on the outside edge and missed the coolant and oil guides

Took the T to work and opened it up, now suddenly idle is way too rich 0.769 like wide open , and stumbles off idle then smooths out till about half throttle and then starts stumbling again. Sounds like I popped passenger side exhaust gasket on the header I,d say head gasket except I don't see...

I do have a transmission project that will need done in the future, but being the experience and knowledge with our cars I was wondering if you do the NC safety Inspection if not no biggie. I will still be needing a transmission upgrade in the future

Sup All, just moved to NC, Stokesdale, looking forward to seeing everyone at the Turbobuick nats hopefully richard keeps its rolling. looking forward to may to represent.

Look at your wastegate actuator , the rod that hooks to the waste gate flapper, if it is one solid rod, then u have a stock waste gate actuator. If it is two pieces, one threaded with a lock nut, then you should be able to spin the end of the rod and shorten or lengthen the rod, thats an...

1985 Hot air. Like brad said "thats as good as it gets on a stock hot air".........if you still want more boost, its gonna cost you some money and some time to do ur homework. Among the things you'll need is and adjustable wastegate rod, your turbotweek chip should have marked on it the lbs of...

I would say no, don't wrap it, if u do condensation will form on the inside of the pipe and it will eventually corrode, better off having it done with JETHOT coating.

I've been struggling all winter with a miss that would develope under full throttle at about 3500 rpms. motor would stumble and miss, swapped cam sensor with known good, swapped ecm, checked grounds, checked main ground strap for frame rubs, nothing. tested coil pack, it passed. Finally today I...

You could always have someone take that stock turbo and upgrade it to a TA33C, about 900 bucks but flows a lot more. recommend you use razors alky kit with it.

$258,000.00

Boost gauge is mechanical, and is hooked in as per the 85 vacuum set up, got the diagram had to buy the y splitter and use the orafice and had to make sure it was on the proper side of the y splitter, the vacuum lines are pretty unruly looking but that set up has worked well for about 3 years...

I wanted to put a log in for u guys, but i can't upload the file and don't have a server to park it on. Its an ugly log, iac is bouncin between 50 and 110, but there might be an ecm issue too..... got codes 55 44 42 31 24 13 its a digital dash car, so i'm gonna swap the ecm with known good ...

I checked all my vacuums, they're ok no cracks, the idle goes up high on start up, then comes down to almost idle then shoots back up again. i'll have to plug in my laptop to see the iac counts since powerlogger took them off of scanmaster, gotta read them right out of powerlogger. My vacuum...
