So after trying to chase down a high pitch whine for over a year I finally found my culprit. After multiple amps, patch cables, headunits, and even a 200amp saturn alternator upgrade. I'm still left with an awful whine through my speakers. I was rerouting my patch cables (for the millionth time)...
Ok so I ordered a 200amp saturn alternator from DB Electrical. I have the wiring done correctly I believe (L pin to black/yellow, S pin to switched 12v via a relay). But I can't get the pin through the hole to mount it. The big ass pulley is hitting the frame and it stops me from being able to...
I will be getting link vs in the next week or two. I've always wanted a "sport" modes like we see in the EcoBoost line from ford. Is this a possibility with link? Or something I will have to program myself? I'd love to replace that mysterious third button (the blank with the hazards and rear...
I absolutely love my DSM, I've had it for almost 2 years. But it is going to drive me completely insane! It has the worse interior I have ever seen in any car! My friends Saturn Ion makes less noise than these damn things! Is there anything to do about all the noises??? I have Dynamat everywhere...
So I have been trying to tackle this issue for well over 6 months now... But it recently has gotten so bad I almost don't want to drive the car anymore. I have taken it to my mechanic (who used to be the master mechanic at a Mitsubishi dealership until recently. He knows these things inside and...
I have always had some sort of pick up in my RCA cables. I have moved them many times and even bought new cables (twisted) and it has helped. But never has diminished entirely. I have a quite high pitch scream. It is worse when I am switched over to FM rather than AUX. It is still there on AUX...
The other day I decided to replace the oil return line gaskets on my recently installed 14b. Pretty straight through. Scrap off old ones put new ones on. I used goo gone and a razor blade to get them off completely. No more leaks, all dry and seems good! However the first time out I noticed a...
So I've had this issue for awhile now. But it was only occasional then went away immediately, even on my t-25. About two months ago I upgraded to a 14b and noticed the issue diminished slightly. However yesterday, till now, the motor will not boost. The turbo spools and the gauge (right off the...
I just recently installed my *used* MHI 14b turbo in my 2g. Replacing that POS T-25. So far I LOVE IT! Pulls a lot harder than the ol stocker. But the only thing I miss is the sound. That little T-25 was LOUD! I could start spooling it up it'd turn heads from a good distance! Zero shaft play and...
I am about to cry here. Car has been up on a jack for 3 DAYS! All I am trying to do is replace my t-25 with a 14b... 3 DAYS!!! Before I get hate...I am a newb... I can rightfully declare it now. I thought I knew what I was doing until this point and time in my cars life. This is a DD that I...
Is there anyone out there that has built their own 16g install kit for a 2g? I'm not looking to cheap out or anything. But $175 for some nuts, bolts and a J-pipe seems a bit ridiculous... I'm wondering what all I would need to build my own kit. If it would be much cheaper, which I would imagine...
I have an issue with my convertible top on my GS-T. When I press the switch to move it, all I hear is a bunch of loud relays behind the back seats clicking and nothing happen. Both going up and down. It used to be to tap the button a couple times then it'll go. But now it doesn't work at all...
I was looking around for new rotors, when I came across some people on other forums talking about TriNet Rotors. They are an Ebay company, everyone who had them, loved them, and they are SUPER cheap too! <$300 for all four! Does anyone here have any experience with them or know where I can pick...
I am trying to install a LOC, I have had aftermarket stereos in it... and I am just afraid of somebody taking a knife to my soft top just to steal a stupid headunit, because it looks fancy. So I put my old HU back in. But I still have my Speaker amp and my sub with its amp. I installed the LOC...
Alright, so I am wanting to lower my 2g. But I don't want to scrape everywhere I go, or on my driveway. I already have to go at an angle to get in and out, with stock suspension. I've been looking a bit into air ride systems. I'd like a nice air ride for comfort. But I DO NOT want some mexican...
Alright so I found a really good deal on a MHI big 16g turbo and a tubular EM. I am going to buy it tomorrow. I realize I cannot just replace my t25 and stock EM and go. So I have been doing a bit a research and this my conclusion. I am going to need/want to get:Install kit, like this Forced...
So, I'm thinking now is a good time to get an exhaust system (following the tech guide from here). There's a Megan Racing 3" catback I may be interested in. Anyone have good or bad feedback on them? The youtube videos I've seen of them sound nice. But my question is if I will need to tune my car...
So I'm thinking about getting a FMIC. I have the stock t25 turbo, but will be upgrading to a big 16g down the road. Is there a good FMIC that will bolt up to both turbos with minimal/zero cutting and welding?On a side note, is upgrading the SMIC pipes worth it? Should I upgrade those and...
Ok, so this has been going on ever since I bought the car. The drivers side door will not lock sometimes. Ill hit the button and the passenger side locks fine. But the drivers side lock will go about half way and stick. If I manually try to lock it. It wont lock. I push on the thing as hard as I...
I have a 1996 Canadian Eclipse GS-T Spyder. I've noticed that I squealed the tires today (didn't see red light till last second), and that got me thinking... Shouldn't the ABS have kicked in? :hmm: I mean it's a 96?! Also through winter, I never had to slam on my brakes or brake hard but I never...
Ok so I DID SEARCH and could not find a situation like mine. At the beginning of winter this year I began to notice a screaming or whining noise coming from engine bay. It only occurs in low RPMs, It was go directly with revs and then once it decides to (normally around 2500rpm) it just...
So last night I installed a Hallman mbc. I used <a href=http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/articles-turbo-system-intercooler/237982-best-way-install-mbc.html>this</a> to direct me. The system boosts fine and the car seems to drive smoothly if not better, even at stock boost (12psi). I can adjust...
