Ive been having issues the past few months with throttle enrichment issues.. I am running 021u right now.. and I was goin to upgrade to 029 because of the TPS/MAP dot tuning.. but I was talkign to Jeremy and he has has the same issue with mainly all MAP dot tuning.. basically when im cruising or at idle.. i will barely move the throttle.. and it has an immediate lean spike, then richens back up. Now if I add like full throttle quickly it doesnt do it.. but cruising and just opening it up a bit.. SPIKE SPIKE! Anyone have any advice on the tip-in throttle when you first open it up? or maybe a screen shot of the MS table?

the stock manifold can flow very well.. look at Garrett's 460rwhp setup.. STOCK manifold

there are several maps posted on this forum.. do a search for Holset maps or flow charts

How is the progress on this? I definatly would like to buy one

i was watching horsepower tv.. and they recommended to do the following... Bolt the flange onto the head, using a washer sandwiched between the head and flange, and another washer for the nut/bolt. Tac weld your first tubing onto the flange Tac weld all the bends, the collector etc Cut/Break the tac welds off the flange from the new manifold Weld together all of your bends and the collector Place the manifold back onto the flange and weld efficiently, allowing enough time to allow the manifold to cool. Also keep the flange bolted tightly on the head, to prevent warping

you know I was talkn to Bobby about this a few days ago.. Can someone successfully build a nice turbo header using purely a MiG? I was not sure if a TIG is necessary, for more precise heat control, to prevent from warping?! If so.. boy oh boy I will be welding up a new turbo header very shortly! I have a spare engine I can mock it up to

Justin.. they dont have a 3.75" which is the size WE need .. for the HY or HX ..

are you guys going to test vortex generators on the roof? on friday ill be glad to donate some money.. as long as we get pictures, videos and charts for us to observe

oh yeh.. Tim.. is this pump gas? race gas? methanol or water injection? nitrous?

Call Porterfield.. they dont sell online yet anyway.. they want to talk to you and make sure they get you what you want

lol.. Phil.. when I went from the N/A ecu to Megasquirt.. it was like going from 5psi to 15psi on the T3 immediatly with proper tuning and fuel/spark maps.. my God...

Daniel you didnt invite me! shame shame! Hehe.. looks like a blast.. hows the new LSD working out?

Tim.. simply amazing.. what transmission are you running? just a custom built T-5?!! whowowowa and OMG .. I cant believe these numbers! thats crazy! especially at 16psi creeping to 19psi! Unless I read it too quickly.. Also what gas were you running? 110 race fuel? 93 pump gas? nitrous? meth? water injection? Excuse my ignorance.. ive viewed your Ohh Wilma thread... but what the hell are you running very briefly? stroker? camshaft? head work? I see ITB's and a HUGE turbo.. but.. please!

Hope its easy with the H1C .. the HY35W and the HX35W with the V-band is damn near impossible to find.. I searched for weeks without much luck.. cheapest was around $100 but it was a 3.75" V-band.. but yes.. buy the V-band seperatly.. if you have a downpipe simply clamp em together.. if not.. buy a V-band flange.. and the V-band clamp.. and weld up a DP

twoeightythrees.. change out that radiator hose on the throttle body to i/c piping.. that bend is probably killing flow a bit silicone couplers are cheap..

check out my Putfile link in my sig.. I have pics of the Iron Cross wheels on there.. with arizona z car lowering springs

I believe Dexter and Joe ran there setups with the i/c piping under the oil pan.. very cool idea

i ran 215/60/r14's on my iron cross wheels.. no problems

your right ... ya said the air is going backwards.. oops people make mistakes.. browsing wayy to fast my appologies

um the turbocharger does not go backwards... it simply slows down.. only in SEVERE cases with extremly high RPM levels and very high boost levels the turbo surge will be intense enough to bend or break the blades. But it will not go backwards

wow good news! im gonna buy the converters for the solid lifters today.. i'll take pics and document it all.. i dont ever want to deal with the POS hydraulic lifters again .. lol

nice work man

man you have a very nice camera! Thank you for taking the time to go through and document this! This is awsome! and should definatly be a sticky!

that is an awsome price! man I'd love to see some video of this!

wow talk about a very informative thread! I cant tell you how many hours I spent looking for a picture of the hydraulic lifter for Z's.... and that link is awsome! thanks man! let us know what the results are
