Yes I can make it over tonight. I get off work at 4:00 pm, I'll give a call when I get home. One thing we could try is to switch VAF's with mine. I'm thinking the 2.5L VAF is messing with your fuel/air mixture on your 1.8L motor. Possably causing some of the dead spots during acceleration. later And...

I got mine at the local u-pull-it junk yard.
You could search the Probetalk.com message board for someone
selling them or post a WTb thread.

I live in Lake Worth, you could describe your problem all day to me but I would much rather just take a look at your car to help figure it out. email me a way to contact you and we could set up a meeting. I'm not a mechanic and will not charge you anything, I'm just very familiar with the 1.8 v6. An...

Your K8 is capable of making 200 hp just fine. If that is all you think you want then it is not a waste of money. You need to do a little research about the different turbos and there effeciency charts. My setup uses a t3/t4 to4e 57 trim. on my K8. I have not dynoed this setup and don't have any pla...

Yes there is a slight mod to the exhaust. Since these hot pipes were meant for a Probe gt or mx-6 you will have to shorten your existing exhuast by some amount. For me that amount was approx. 3-4". I
would measure before cutting just to be safe.

Cost is the reason for the turbo, $300 shipped with a 6 month quarantee. The 220cc injectors are used on all the 2.5L motors including the 200hp KLZE. At 10psi I figured I was at approx. 200 hp. The FMU, Fuel managment unit, is used to raise fuel pressure when it sees boost. I have an 8:1 ratio unit...

It is a T3/T4 T04E 57 trim. A little lag for my 1.8L but I always figured on moving to a 2.5L in the future. Spool up is a little latter than what you have mentioned, 200-300 rpm. makes for one heck of a high revving monster. There are custom intakes around, and some are better designs than others. ...

I've been at 10psi for about 6 months. Last time at the track I managed a 14.5 @ 103.3mph. The manifold you see in the picture is not th...
