    FPR o-ring

    Can anyone explain to me why this continues to happen: I'm using a stock sy/ty fuel return line that I convert over to rubber then connect back to the stock return line under the drivers door. I've replaced this o-ring multiple times and it keeps going bad and leaking.. I thought maybe...

    Warped flexplate? Videos, updated.

    Re: Warped flexplate? Re: Warped flexplate? I'm going to go with not normal.. I've always seen them spin good and true.. Any whining noise from the transmission or other signs that the torque converter may be ballooning?

    What's a guy gotta do

    Re: What's a guy gotta do No, s10blaza stated the EXACT reason why I am trying to get you to use TunerPro.. Just trying to save you a headache. I used DataMaster 10 years ago and it was OK then. Once TP came along I never looked back. It's better in every way imaginable and the non Real...

    What's a guy gotta do

    Re: What's a guy gotta do You can use TunerPro just to datalog and send files. You don't have to tune with it... I'm guessing that most guys that would be willing to look at your files and provide useful feedback would prefer a TunerPro file over a Datamaster file anyday...

    What's a guy gotta do

    Re: What's a guy gotta do Why do you want to use Datamaster as opposed to TunerPro? Personally I'd use this: http://www.tunerpro.net/downloadApp.htm and this: http://www.moates.net/aldu1-and-cabl1-p-127.html?cPath=97 Slightly steeper learning curve but TunerPro is WAY more customizable...

    Cobra elbow reinforcement

    Re: Cobra elbow reinforcement I'd use a lock-nut on the outside. Or tack it really quick with a MIG... Would suck for that outside nut to come off and then possibly allow an inside nut and/or washer to suck into the turbo... Cool idea though.. Curious to hear if it works..

    I lost 4lbs and don't know why!

    Re: I lost 4lbs and don't know why! Maybe you guys were right... I increased the WGDC to 75 and that brought me back up to 10 psi.. It feels like an animal again.. I'll have to start playing with the desired boost values as well as the WGDC step correction values to see how well I can get...

    I lost 4lbs and don't know why!

    Re: I lost 4lbs and don't know why! My vacuum at idle is 20Hg.. That's what it has always been and thats what it still is.. It doesn't jump around at all. Sits perfectly still. I thought about that too.. I just want to be 100% sure I'm not overlooking a more serious issue before I give...

    I lost 4lbs and don't know why!

    Re: I lost 4lbs and don't know why! The truck sat for about 3 weeks while I body-worked and painted the fenders.. I noticed the difference immediately though.. At 10-11 PSI I'm afraid to take my eyes off the road to look at the speedo.. The first time I took it out after re-installing the...

    I lost 4lbs and don't know why!

    Re: I lost 4lbs and don't know why! I have manually disabled all correction on boost control. I've set the initial WGDC to 64.84. Its been this way for quite some time and I haven't changed it. No changes here. Its just a 90 and then the filter.. As mentioned above I disabled correction...

    I lost 4lbs and don't know why!

    Re: I lost 4lbs and don't know why! No codes in the ECM and its still commanding the same WGDC.. I thought about taking the wastegate apart and just inspecting things.. I have forgotten to tighten a clamp on the cold side before and had similar issues(only got 4-5 PSI though).. That's...

    I lost 4lbs and don't know why!

    Re: I lost 4lbs and don't know why! I did physically look the boost controller lines over really good and they got pressure tested along with everything else.. I think they are OK.. I have had leaks in the hot side before and they were always very audible. I'm thinking if I had a hot-side...

    I lost 4lbs and don't know why!

    Unfortunately I'm talking about boost and not weight. I recently removed and re-installed my fenders so that I could paint them. While the fenders were off I also added a torque strap to my engine. I have to run these funky offset motor mounts for the V8 and I was afraid that they may bend or...
