  1. All injectors were low impedance, so your injectors are fine. I believe it was the '81 that had the external resistor pack in a separate box- the later model years had the resistors in the CPU box, so you're cool there if you are using an '82 or '83 cpu. If you are using the '81 cpu, you will need to make a resistor pack.
  2. Gabe: I have almost come to the same conclusion as far as a GT3076R - but be sure to get the .82 exhaust housing.... The GR3076R looks to be a great match for the L28 engine compared to the GT35R, which seems to be better with a bit more displacement. Since I am talking about what will be my daily driver, I'll give up a little up top for better response down lower - especially with an automatic... I am still considering a TO4E 50 Trim compressor and N series (old terminology) T4 turbine, because I have a manifold with wastegate opening below the turbine inlet and a T4 flange on it...
  3. More importantly, what's it set to during cranking? 10 degrees should work well. Idle would be 20-24 degrees.
  4. Nice number there! I know you have a GT35, but what other mods have you done? A lot of people like to know what people are sucessfully doing - call it sharing information...
  5. Love the new paint! Looks great J.
  6. Yo: You might want to check code - in my area, there needs to be a 25% safety factor in current (amp) capability on a circuit. On my MM175 w/ max draw of 19.4, I needed a 30 amp breaker and wiring. They had no broblem with that circuit running an air compressor and the welder...'course I rarely have them both on at the same time....
  7. JTR has an adapter that reduces the rotation ~.66:1, which if used with slightly taller tires is very close when you set your dash for kph...This adapter is for a T-5 tranny.
  8. If you HAVE to shoot someone - make sure they're dead so they can't sue you...
  9. Title says it all: Suspension, Chassis Repair & Stiffening, Brakes & Wheels. Major stickies to scroll past, and the ability to focus on the one area of interest at a time.... 'nuf said?
  10. I have had VERY positive results in improving idle on a 4 cyl Campry that had just had new plugs and wires. The idle in gear (automatic) was very shaky, after treatment butter smooth. Off idle tip in improved also.
  11. And by the way - turbos want LESS overlap than NA...
  12. I thought those were the 2.6L seals used in the 60 degree V6 in early Capri's...
  13. If you want to run x amount of boost you are better off with a wastegate with x lb spring in it. This alone won't guarantee that it won't open early - only a ball/spring arrangement will do that. ktm is SO right about your AFR's - way to rich.
  14. Good Job! Have you looked into that "ultimate wastegate" fitment yet???

  16. OK - I now officially hate you....JK....
  17. I personally wouldn't mind hearing what John has to say... I have an '83 ZXT that will be my daily driver...
  18. z-ya - perfect sense, but not what was implied in your post. What was implied was exactly the reason I made the statement I did.
  19. Especially if you are running a manual trans, but even with an auto, I'd strongly suggest running a double-pumper carb. Much better throttle response on a light car, and if you train your foot, you know WHEN the secondaries open up and can save on gas - with the vacuum secondaries there's no telling....
  20. bakerzxt: Kudos to you for getting dirty and discovering the problem, but even more so for posting what you found out! One of my major gripes about some forums is that the members will ask and never post solutions. Let's not talk about threads that stay in order of original post date - talk about lame....
  21. z-ya: The TO4B has either an S-3 trim or a H3 trim or a V1/V2 trim, unless you were running one with the 60-1 compressor wheel.... for instance, I'm running a Turbonetics turbo I purchased in '94 - a water cooled center section with a .70 A/R compressor housing w/S3 trim and a clipped turbine. Do you still have the old turbo to measure the compressor wheel? All is clear now as to why you were making the projections you were - a lack of information in the original post had me wondering... I bet you're happy... I still have a problem with your relating the change in low end torque curve to the porting of the wastegate though...the low end would have to do with the ball and spring boost controller (I call 'em grainger valves). Once you achieve full boost and the ported 'gate keeps boost where you want it, yeah - you're gonna pick up some top end!
  22. Nismo: Nothing at all uncharted - simply use spark A,B & C outputs according to the directions and set up for wasted spark. You need to have a cam signal to use all 6 outputs in sequential mode - your 36-1 wheel isn't enough... See - nothing to it!
