Mod chip

Okay, the poor, unwitting bastard that posted the 'mod chip' deal in the 4sale forum....I've seen these deals on ebay and stuff. If these chips ultimately fool the ecu into providing more fuel in response to an inflated airflow reading, wouldn't the engine run rich and end up in the same mess as the...

WTB=B6T exhaust manifold

I would like to get my hands on the whole B6T, but until I can afford 1000-1500 for that, I'll to settle for turboing my 92 RS....Only I need a B6T exh.manifold.
Any takers?

Re: easy power mod

Would this MAF 'adjustment' supply enough fuel to serve as a workaround for indy fuel management if the engine is fed low levels of boost (i.e. 6-8 pounds)?

Re: Valve Tick Question

If my engine ticks for a few second after startup, as you describe....Is that a danger to the engine?

Re: Fastest(Getting in), cheapest, most power, pretty much t

With the BP swap, how possible is it to incorporate a manifold from a bpt or b6t later on? I'm slowly rebuilding an IHI VJ11 at the moment, and I'd like to install it eventually. So if I could re-use the exh.manifold it would be good (or, come to think of it, I should just ask how much the shop want...

Re: MX-3 4-Cyl to V6 Engine Swap Info......

Re: Still can't figure out how to change tranny oil !

The speedo cable is beteen the engine and firewall. Nut it's just as much of a pain in the *** . If you locate the bolt (10 mm I think) on the front of the transaxle, turn that out and get youself a small oil can, preferably with a flexable line to the nozzle. You'll have to refill it a few times, b...

Re: Swap from SOHC, to DOHC failed..

Okay guys...What is involved if I want to swap a 93 1.6L RS into a 92 1.6L RS? I can get the "engine assembly" for 350.00 from a wreckers. I'm not looking to get stupid on speed, just that I'm pretty sure that the compression on my sohc is gone to hell in a handbasket. Besides, I'm going t...

Final word on turbo-ing an RS

Okay, I've read all of the info I can find here re: turbo-ing an RS. This board and some members are killer for info, but I was wondering if I could be a pain in the A$$ and re-hash the turbo discussion one more time. Problem is the info is so broken up.

Re: stock tranny hp limit?

would the stock 92 RS tranny handle the boost hp boost from a VJ-11? From what I've read, the pistons and rods are fine below 9-10psi. Actually, I would like to compile somewhat of a final word on turbo-ing an RS...But at the risk of being considered in the wrong forum, I'm really interested in the ...
