    Injector Seal Replacement Question

    Ohhhhhh...you mean get the scotchbrite out of the grey matter between my ears. I know you were joking...I wasn't actually being serious about the car shopping bit, haha. :)

    Injector Seal Replacement Question

    Anxiety levels just peaked. Lol. I'm going to rotate the crank until the valves close. I'll try and vacuum the inside of the cylinder through the spark plug hole with a small nylon hose. Then I'll blow compressed air and vacuum the intake runners. I'll clean the runners with a degreaser and...

    Upcoming parts / service stuff questions

    I'll need to do this soon as well. How much length do people usually add? 4-5 inches?

    Upcoming parts / service stuff questions

    A couple things not noted that you'll need to do with the 3.5" intake is extending the 5/8" (I think that's the size?) heater line that runs underneath the turbo inlet. Additionally, you'll need to relocate your ECU. I recommend this even with a 3" intake as I found that mine was rubbing the ECU.

    I took it all apart yesterday before posting here to check to see if they were inside. No dice :(

    Injector Seal Replacement Question

    My injectors still cut the mustard...passed their inductance and flow tests and are cleaned up and ready to be reinstalled.

    Forge BPV - Instructions & Lack Thereof

    Thanks @Awafrican and @Raider. I'm definitely going to confirm the shim thing with Edge Autosport, because their site had the shims in the picture. In the link you provided to the tuning kit, the yellow spring is good for 15-23 psi and the blue is good for 23-30 psi. Would the blue be too...

    Forge BPV - Instructions & Lack Thereof

    Thanks man! There is a range for each spring, but some depend on having shims or some designs may be shim-less. And the range for each spring colour seems to change for each model and style of BPV available. I did reach out to Edge Autosport for technical support. So hopefully they'll get...

    Forge BPV - Instructions & Lack Thereof

    Hey guys and gals, I recently purchased a Forge BPV from Edge Autosport; model no. FMWRX3. It came with 3 springs (blue, yellow, and red) and no shims and no instructions. For the life of me I cannot find instructions for it...I know how to install the valve, but I don't know what spring to...

    Car has different engine than stock

    Man, that sucks to hear. Hopefully they didn't just throw in a junkyard engine with unknown mileage or history. I would feel cheated as well. But as Raider said, if they're the second or third owner, maybe they honestly didn't know. When I'm selling my cars, I am honest to a fault. I want...

    What did you do to your ride today

    Two weeks ago, I did a shitty job of "fixing" up some rust on the bottom of the front passenger door. I also did a terrible job of "fixing" rust that started to develop on the rear wheel arches. We didn't get Christmas this year, so used the wrapping paper, lol. This weekend, I'm cleaning my...

    P0201 help please!!

    @Mikey27, how frequently can a coil be damaged by pulling an injector improperly? Wouldn't the shop cleaning and bench testing the injector know there is an issue with the coil when bench testing the injector? Asking because I struggled to pull two of four of my injectors and concerned I may...

    Valve Cleaning, How To Do It and Why?

    Personally, I'm not going to spend much time on the runners. I'll use a toothbrush and carb cleaner to try and degrease as much as possible and remove any leftover bits of media and then give it all one last blast of brake cleaner and air and call it done. Everything, and I mean everything...

    Possible throttle body issue

    You probably triggered the MAF code when you tried to start the car with the intercooler off the car. The MAF wouldn't have been reading anything when you started the car. EDIT: your MAF would have read 0 g/s when you started your car...whatever that translates to in MAF voltage.

    Injector Seal Replacement Question

    I think we all tend to overthink this stuff as well. It created a heated debate on Shoutbox a couple weeks ago. To be honest, I think if interpolating with math gets us in the ballpark of where we need to be with the injectors, the most important part is the fact the injector was cleaned and...

    Draining fuel from tank

    Would you need to jumper the relay for the pump? If you disconnected the LP fuel line to the HPFP, the car would never build fuel pressure, so wouldn't that cause the pump to continuously run? Or would you get a fault of some kind? NOTE: I'm dumb...so don't take my advice, lol.

    Injector Seal Replacement Question

    The guy I'm taking mine to does it out of a shop at his home in High River. He has all the ASNU machines for ultrasonic cleaning and what not and will replace the filter baskets and pertinent o-rings. However, this guy does ot flow test at 2000+ psi. He does that at lower pressure...5 bar...

    Injector Seal Replacement Question

    It's a guy local to me. So I can drive them out and pick them up without dealing with mail, etc. Why do you ask? EDIT: @Awafrican and @Enki, I appreciate you guys finding out those prices for me. Talking to the guy who is servicing my injectors, that plastic is merely cosmetic. The coil is...

    Injector Seal Replacement Question

    Is that for a brand new one? I'm looking at the remanufactured ones from either Beck/Arnley or GB on Rock Auto. I'm waiting to hear back from the guy doing my injectors as well because he has some spares.
