    Gear shift problems

    First make sure the clutch master cylinder is adjusted correctly. There are videos of how to do that. If you are on a 1g then check your adjustment on the shifter cable.I would recommend the use of good gear oil (red line) and lastly it's sounding like possible synchro wear.

    I think I just found a Manual Boost Controller Under my seat

    Also unless you are using a gm maf+translator on blow through mode or running speed density you'll want to recirculate your vented air back into the intake.

    Bent Valve Cover Corner

    Just using a nut driver (or socket and extension) to get the bolts just snug using 2 fingers is all it takes. The above poster is right, you are sealed by a massive rubber gasket so a bent piece of metal on the outside won't affect anything other than the perfectness of your engine bay.The...

    I think I just found a Manual Boost Controller Under my seat

    If that is actually hooded up to your turbo then there is quite a delay for boost control response. I understand why it's there but the halman in cabin controller does it properly.

    only 1 cylinder firing

    You could pull the spark plugs and turn it over and check to see if the piston tops are wet. Quick verification that the injectors are in fact firing. Then you can go from there. Do you have a 1G or 2g CAS?Are the plug wires new?

    CAS install, TDC question

    You don't need to set it to TDC to re do the cas. Just unbolt it and rotate it half way around and re install. Just do the ignition timing with a light afterwards.
  15. LiquidX

    CAS install, TDC question

    That's correct if they are stock cams. Aftermarket cams may have multiple dowel holes (like fidanza having Evo holes).I would get your timing to TDC with all marks lined up and put the cas alignment in proper.
  16. LiquidX

    CAS install, TDC question

    Then your cas was put in 180* out if your mechanical timing is set properly. Just rotate the arm to match up the notch and dot and re install.
  17. LiquidX

    CAS install, TDC question

    It's just easier to have the timing marks aligned at the cams when doing the cas install. It does not need to be installed without the motor in time since the cas can only be installed correctly or 180* out.If it runs like complete crap or doesn't run then try rotating the cas arm and try...

    CAS install, TDC question

    Put #1 cylinder to TDC and install CAS with the notches pointing to the dot. Use a timing light to adjust.

    Wideband or narrowband?

    Skip the LC-1, it's older, bulkier and more complicated to install. The MXTL is the newer version and is just as simple to install as the UEGO WB and calibration is as easy as unplugging the sensor from its harness.All calibrations regardless of manufacturer or branding should be performed in...

    Wideband or narrowband?

    Innovate mtxl. It's more accurate of a controller than aem last I looked. Also, you can calibrate the innovate wb unlike aem.

    Price of a 6bolt and manual trans swap?

    If you are looking for a quick turn around (within a month) go elsewhere. The work they do is iffy depending on what was done. Justin is very knowledgeable in his work and has worked on many dsms as well as Hondas.My biggest issue is the fact that when I went there he had too much work and...

    New to the area york pa

    True, but it's based on population density. Less people means greater chance for no emissions (perry county).I would suggest finding some speed shops that deal with imports and start befriending them unless you can put a cat converter on and swap out the dump tube all assuming you have...

    GOD Dammit im stomped.....

    Check throttle plate position. Re verify you don't have any boost leaks using soapy water and check exhaust leaks pre front o2.

    New to the area york pa

    It's not ridiculous, it's an attempt to reduce harmful pollutants. What is messed up is that all or non of the state should be required, not picking and choosing based off of population per county.

    2g running rough

    How did you perform the boost leak test? Are there are CELs showing?
  31. LiquidX

    New to the area york pa

    Pre muffler exhaust leaks won't pass visual emissions unless you find a shop to look past that as well as being cat less. They will still be required to hook up to the obd2 port for a connection testing the readiness state.Once you pass the following years you can qualify for emissions exempt...

    New to the area york pa

    For the welding, just call around. The inspection will be an issue. Why do you say it laughs at emissions?You can get an exemption but you have to have a current pa emissions sticker. I'm unsure of where you are relocating from.

    2g running rough

    What maintenance have you done, do you have any exhaust or boost leaks? Did you mess with the safc at all and what injectors are you using?

    nitrous sprayed pre-intercooler, BOV question

    Dee and Wes are correct. NO is an oxidizer so the only thing that it would affect is if you had an under-hood fire happening and the NO got to it.Pre-IC injection would reduce the efficiency of the IC which may allow you to get a small IC if needed. Pre turbo injection would be the better...

    Timing belt loose.

    Yes, you need to remove the driver side engine mount and you can either use a lift or put a jack on the oil pan with a piece of wood.

    Clutch noise? Vid inside

    Drop it and get an alignment tool and get your clutch disk inspected on both sides. One day, I drove my car in the evening to get it inspected and the following day I couldn't get in gear. I finally had a spring pop out during that time of driving home.

    No power, idle is GOOD

    Well then, you have electrical issues to work out then whether it's sensors or the wiring itself. The ECU may be pulling a boat load of timing which is why it's a pig right now.Go over everything, make sure the tps sensor is wired correctly and diagnose the obdII port for the connectivity...

    Consequences of WOT

    Guess you'll find out once things start breaking if they are worn out. I advise you against aggressive driving while on shared roadways unless you like risking lives and receiving citations.Keep an ear on sounds from the transmission and have good brakes and tires for when you need to stop...

    Broke intake cam during install

    There is another factor that either you ate leaving out or most likely you are unaware of.It's possible the cam stick wasn't seated in properly (sitting at an angle) and when tightened caused a stress point.Did you finger tighten the caps and rotate the cam to ensure free movement?

    Broke intake cam during install

    What were you doing that caused the cam to snap??? WTF

    timing belt dark lines on it pics

    Those lines are normal wear from the gears. As long as the teeth are all intact without chipping, cuts or groove and the belt isn't cracked or oil stained, it will be fine. If you want piece of mind then replace it with the rest of the timing parts.

    Rear Main Seal Testing

    My question would be if the groove allows oil to run along it and exit out on the seal side. I'll wait for another to chime in on this.
