    Need Egr Help Trickflow Was Worthless

    Was thinking of that just can't come up with how to do it. They pull the vac line off the egr valve and apply vac directly to the valve so the only thing that sees vac during the test is the valve.

    Need Egr Help Trickflow Was Worthless

    Posted before on this issue but got nowhere. I'm in ca and I fail the egr manual test (they apply vac to egr valve at idle and want the engine to stall). Mine only drops a few rpm. I get both vac and exhaust flow at the egr valve. The valve is absolutely working. I figured I wasn't getting...

    Ca Smog Egr Test

    I realize the differences in the two systems. I disconnected the air pump to eliminate the chance it was putting air to the heads and thinning the exhaust gases going to the egr. My issue is that I get exhaust and vac at the valve, the valve is working, but when I open the egr at idle the engine...

    Int manifold gasket sealing and boost

    okay i just found out that felpro makes a steel core gasket Q1262S3 and that should solve the problem as the 1262's split widyhwise which allowed the top of the gaskets to blow up and out. reading some posts though i see fel pro has a Q1262S3 and a Z1262S3, and it seems theres a lot of problem...

    Int manifold gasket sealing and boost

    I finally found what's been causing my car to run like a $&$-*. Turns out I blew out both gaskets between the heads and the intake. I'm guessing the 14 lbs of boost had something to do with it. They were felt pros with gaskacinch and it was all torqued to spec. Has anyone else had this problem...

    PRO M maf question

    I'm thinking of upgrading my 76mm to a prom 92 or a 95. does anyone have any opinion as one being better than the other? i really don't think 3mm is going to make that big a difference. also has anyone had any issues running a maf of this size and not getting a stable voltage out the maf at idle...

    Post SC install, car dies with throttle/very tough steering. Hmm?

    I assume you have something to work with the 42's mad chip etc. I actually had similar problems the Sep being too tight gave me lousey assist and made the pump whine this was caused by the 3g I had installed which due the bigger case made the belt just a little too short even though I was able...
