That's what I did...

I tought I had a problem...but seems like it was a too much boost problem!! I did unplugged the knock sensor for a while to see if it could be better...I ran a couple of months without the knock on...I know...pretty dumb idea...but I had no timing correction at the time and no pinging signs as well....

### Update about my ride ### I did finally fixed the knock sensor correctly and try my intercooler setting with potentiel good timing with the knock sensor plugged right. I first did a test at 10 psi. Felt alright. No timing correction at all. Pulled ok. It did a test at 13 psi. Wow!!! No timing cor...

I would say that it very attainable on stock internals with proper setup and tuning.

I'd be more concerned about the trans.

I would not spend money on an enginew ith that much millage...that's what I meant!!!

Your internal parts won't make it to that much hp's for sure!!!! Stock with an exhaust line and you'll be near to the top your engine can give you...

so by full exhaust, you mean 3 inch all the way back ? i was kinda hoping it would be a larger gain than that.. my target is around 250hp, i guess it's further away that i expected. I have a 2.5 inches from turbo to muffler. Bigger then that is just a waste of low end torque...Unless you're going f...

It's actually a BOV. There are two types of BOV. Atmos, wich vent in the air and recirculation type wich get the air back into the intake. The first one sounds loud, like the aftermarket ones, and the second type sounds quiet, like on most stock cars. On my setup, I kept the stock one. But it now so...

On the intake manifold on the passenger's side, you'll see a little hose coming from it. Tap your gauge on that line and you'll be fine!

All air filter from the Nissan 3.0L V6 will fit. K&N lists the same part no.

I don't have any times from stock. The only mods I have done when I had a run at bandamier was a 3inch cat back exaust. Hollowed out down pipe. Manual boost controler set at 11psi and a Saab TMIC. I ran a 16.6 at 82.2 That is the only numbers I have. That's stock times...something wrong with your t...

Morgie's setup works fine. I set the boost at 15 psi just to try. Oh man...It pulls realy realy hard!!! And no fuel cut at all...

legacys and WRX are 5 bolts...At least all turbos I've seen were...

I don't know what happend last night, but it was SOOOOOOOOOO fast...I don't know if the ECU learned to deal with the intercooler but it was realy quick...nothing to do with the last two days...It was raining...was it the water on the intercooler? Or the timing thing you're talking about...no timing ...

oops!! yeah I meant NO fuel cut!!!!

What if the EGT is plugged on the downpipe? what reading should I get?

I just installed that on my saab 900 IC setupe....works fine!!! 14 psi and fuel cut!!!

The hardest was to find the right stuff for the piping...I kept the original platic hose that was on the turbo outlet and cut it to fit in the red piping...I had to take off the last row of fins on both ends to make it fit...It was pushing a bit to hard on the coolant tank... The sound of the turbo ...

It's not the best looking job, but it's works just fine!!

Just by looking at the type of question you ask, you heard somewhere that any vehicle can be turbo!! It's true that you can turbo any vehicule!! But it's a high cost an not easy project to do it on a car that was not meant no be turbo. Read on the net about how tubos work and then y'oull probably ha...

I think you could get a STI RA AND the 6 speed for your 1000$ You'd probably get some $ left to buy 4 pot front brakes as well...

If the scoop is functional, there is NO way you can call it wannabe...

195/60/15 ~= 205/55/15

Original size is 195/60 and my tires are 205/55...no speedo change from 195/60(winter tires)

Check out on the board, there are couples of topics about that. Only thing I can tell you is that I did run the car without the O2 plugged for a tank of gas. I run a MCB as well. The car feels much more smoother at part trottle full bost. But it runs like shit at WOT. Pretty not what they tought on ...

I disconnected mine as well...Runs better...but CEL comes after 5 minutes every time...

Cause a lot of canadians act like stupid asses....trhat'S why...If I'd jump off a cliff...would you??
