What would cause the MAP and boost presure reading that I am getting on my power logger? The car runs fine until I give it about 1/3 throttle and than pops through the intake. My vacuum gauge shows normal vacuum and boost readings. I disconnected the MAP sensor but the power logger still gives...

I just rebuilt the motor on my 85GN. I am getting spark advance of 26.1 degrees at idle. Do these numbers look right? I am running E-85 with 60lb injectors and a new turbo tweek chip set up for E85. I have no experience reading power logger data. Thanks Frank

I mistakenly plugged an 87 coil pack/control module into my 85 without the wiring adapter. The car did not start so I swapped back to my 85 set up, but the car still does not start. I checked my fuses under the dash and found no blown fuses. Any thoughts on what I may have blown. Are there any...

For anyone who is new to hot airs, when you start your performance upgrades, consider starting with looking at your timing sprocket. Attached should be a picture of what was left to mine after 111k. I got very lucky, I'm suprised the car ran. I was down to four teeth left on the sprocket:eek:

Hi Guys, Just bought a new Power logger from Full Throttle speed and I am having some problems getting it running. I changed the chip in my existing Scanmaster, and did the hardware changes to the ecu. I loaded the installation CD into my Acer Aspire computer running with windows 7. I plugged...

I will be getting a new downpipe with the integrated elbow from Brian at G Body. Has anyone been able to remove the stock downpipe in one piece? Do you need to remove the passenger side header or disconnect the passenger side engine mount and jack up the motor? Any tips would be greatly...

It's time to replace my cross mounted stock exhaust system. What options are out there for hot air cat back systems. What have you guys used?:) Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

Does anyone know where I can get the stock replacement, formed hoses used on a hot air car. I am installing new injectors and would like to replace the stock hoses while I have the car apart. I looked at Gbody, Kirban, NAPA, and a few other vendors listed and I don't see anyone who caries these...

Hey Guys, I am in the process of installing new injectors in my 85 GN. Before I do something stupid, is there anything I need to know before I try to pry out the fuel rail. I have the top of the motor stripped and I am ready to pull out the injectors. I have everything out of the way and the...

I will order a correct chip from turbo tweek for my set up, but until then, when I install the 87 ecm and maf, should I start it with the 85 chip in the ecm or the 87 chip? I am doing the changeover this morning. Thanks!:confused::confused:

I removed the cap from the fuel rail, installed the adapter and gage but did not register any fuel presure after starting the car. Do I have to do anything elst to the fuel rail to release the presure?:confused: Thanks

Hi guys, I have started the process of installing the radiator into my car. I found that the trany lines look like they are around half of an inch but the threaded holes in the radiator are around .700 thousands of an inch. Do you know what adaptor/reducer is required to make this conversion...

I just finished installing a new turbo center unit on my 85 GN. The old turbo was shot. Tons of play. I was getting very low oil pressure even with new main and rod bearings. I started the car, and it fired right up. I was happily surprised to see my oil pressure go right up to 70 lbs at...

The turbo on my 85 GN is in need of some tender loving care. I am leaking past the seals and there is a ton of play at the intake end. My question is, I see kits available to rebuild these turbos. I have also read postings about doing a rebuild yourself. The kits are around $100. How do you...

I know this is a difficult question to answer, over the internet, without being able to look at the car, but I thought someone may have had a similiar experience. My 85 GN with 100k runs super clean but sometimes it will make a cloud of blue smoke. It seems to be under deceleration, however, I...

I just changed the pcv on my 85 gn. No problem with the pcv plugging into the gromet or the other end going into the junction. What I didn't catch was that there is a "T" connection with another line and I don't see where that plugs into. I already looked at the diagrams under the hot air...

Does anyone know if stock hoses are available for an 85 GN? I just installed a new Walbro pump and while the tank is down, I would like to replace the three lines at the top of the tank. They look line they are formed hoses.

Is there a secret on removing the back seat on a 85 GN?
