I had iridium plugs in my car swapped for 7ES shortly after I got my tune. I actually think the iridium has a smoother idle. Worth the extra money, maybe not? Depends on your preferences I guess.
I’m considering selling my 1998 Eagle Talon TSI AWD. I’ve enjoyed working on the car and restoring it over the last year. I really enjoy getting to drive it when I have the chance to, I have only put a couple thousand miles on in the last year. I’m thinking of upgrading to an Evo. I’ll be...
I 2nd this as an option. I run ceddymods on my 98 Talon TSI, it works fine. Tactrix cable is less than $200 and can be regularly found in classifieds for less.
Thanks for the quick reply guys!No wobble,or vibration issues that I ever noticed.I think I’ll run the installed pulley this year and check it before winter storage. At least I have a new OEM spare if it needs to be replaced later.Thanks again for the help.
Working on replacing my alternator and alternator belt today. I thought I would swap out the crank pulley at the same time. I checked on the one on the car and it actually looks ok to me.What do you guys think does this crank pulley look ok?Also I read that you should prevent the pulley...
I don’t think that is the DTC code I was mentioning. I think that code or efficiency/o2 is if you remove your o2 at the cat you can disable that code check.The DTC I was referring to is the heater circuit check for the front o2. From the factor the o2 has a separate circuit to heat the o2 at...
I ordered a Bosch rebuilt unit for the 97 galant. I have a Canadian build DSM and it came with the 90A alt. I searched and searched these are hard to find new so I went with the Bosch rebuild. On the other hand I came across Mitsubishi OEM 75A through Amazon. I didn’t think stepping down to...
Narrowed it down. Not the water pump or power steering. Those who suggested to check the Alt, thank you. I think it is a bearing in my alternator that’s gone bad. Is this a pretty straightforward swap that I can do in my drive way on jack stands? I’m not an expert mechanic but I was able to...
Thanks for the suggestions. I pulled the timing covers today no abnormal wear or rub marks. I had the belt replaced July 2018 and only put on about 3k miles since. When I had my belt done I had them do the water pump at the same time. So it should be ok however the water pump does seem to be...
After doing some searching on here I'm thinking it might be a balance shaft, bearing, or tensioner going bad. The noise can be described as either light grinding or a rapid rattle. It's definitely localized near the timing belt area, at first I thought it was coming from under the valve cover...
Tuned to 20PSI, 11.1AFR, 3” straight from turbo back to muffler. No boost creep, I have a larger tubular 02 housing and the evo iii 16g I bought from extremepsi has some alterations to keep creep in check. Lower line is with an oem style Cat, higher line is a high flow 3” Cat. Converting to...
