      Spleen8urLSX replied to the thread 350whp build.
      Danl said it best. The 16g’s I’ve had have been my favorite street turbos and most absolute fun to drive. My last 16g set up made 420whp and 430wtq spiking 28lbs on a dynapak on e85, not typical results and every dyno reads different but that...

      The Big 16g IMO is a good 115-120mph in the quarter turbo. This is the BEST street turbo for a street 4g63 DSM in my opinion. I know people have gone 130+ with these. I know the history and tricks that were required to go that fast. I'm speaking...

      I was always terrified of that ARC-2 box going out, but after a few years it never did. I mounted it far away from the engine and used rubber washers on all its mounting points to hopefully absorb vibrations to improve the longevity. Who knows if...

      You can spin the engine any way you want with the timing belt off as long as all the valves are closed. You don't need to pre-prime the oil pump. Guys....what do you think happens when you leave your car sitting for weeks...months without...

      Just stumbled upon this when I opened up motortrend just a little bit ago. I won’t spoil it, but god damn that was impressive and made me proud of these god awful 90s shit boxes we love so much.
    • Spleen8urLSX
      This brings up a valuable point though. Findings are clear results that when the ARC 2 works it does work and damn good, so it makes me wonder why so many failures (aside from faulty ones from Dynatek), are they moisture sensitive perhaps?

      Haha lobe big much faster it is lolHonestly if you knew anything it would be a big help here but your just wasting your time and possibly going to ruin someone elses build if they think its ok to swap caps out! In a few miles you will trash a...

      You’re not helping your case at all by name calling a reputable vendor in our community for telling you facts you don’t want to hear. Use the search function here to see why you’re not in the least bit correct and to see how ridiculous you’re...

      Spleen8urLSX posted a reply to a question on the classified ad For sale 2g Cam shaft bearing caps.
      He’s 100% correct. You can’t simply take cam caps out of one head and bang them in another and say it’s good, these are only good to the cylinder head they came off of, if that head is trashed then these are scrap aluminum as well. If someone...

      These will be almost 99% useless to anyone without the head. Why dont you have the head to go with them? Whats wrong with the head the caps were removed
    • Spleen8urLSX
      This is my point. Plug and play still requires fine tuning.Just dont want to see misleading info that plugging in FIC numbers is all you need to do and your good to go. Sure you can get the car to start and even drive if you have narrow band to...

      I AM happy you got it up and running!In years of doing this Ive NEVER seen injector dtaa plug and play without some tweaking. Can usually get you close for a start up though. I am skeptical that your numbers will line up in the long run of the...

      I’m all about seeing them work! In this case it’s clearly making a difference and hope it continues to.In one of my cases it was a good buddy dealing with it in his 90’ Talon (that I actually owned at one point), triple confirmed wiring was...

      Well, I am running one on 2 of my 3 DSMs and they have been on for years. Still kicking hot spark at 40lbs of boost. Maybe I am just lucky or maybe it's installed correctly but they are still working just fine.
    • Spleen8urLSX
      I’ve never seen much good of the Dynatek ARC-2 box. Most cases I’ve seen first hand they either didn’t work right from the get go or if they worked they didn’t work long. Every one of those cases it was ditched for the M&W box and no more...

      What is it we’re looking at?
    • Spleen8urLSX
      I always had boost and the wideband in the vent pod and oil pressure and water temp in the din below the radio in a flat piece I laser cut and mounted in there (could cut a similar piece by hand it’s basic I just had a CNC laser at my disposal)...

      Spleen8urLSX replied to the thread 2G Smoke on cold start.
      I’d bet the valve seals aren’t doing valve seal things when they’re cold. The only turbo I’ve ever had smoke was a Chinese 16g I had before I switched to a real MHI Johnson and it only smoked after being in boost on decel then I’d come to a stop...
    • Spleen8urLSX
      If you’re planning to stay with a 16g then a ported 2g manifold or ported evo 3 manifold (hard to find these days) is the best matched. The FP race manifold is a nice piece, but the runners are a tad bit large for stuff like the 14b and 16g...
    • Spleen8urLSX
      You can indeed use a 7cm turbine housing from a 16g. You can rob one from a blown China 16g pretty cheap along with the adjustable wastegate actuator and it’s a nice cheap upgrade over the 6cm housing. Also the 6cm turbine housing is notorious...
