whining

I am also expriencing some type of whining sound coming from the motor after the t belt install. I suspected it has something to do with the teeth of the timing belt needing some time to smooth out or break in. I also did not replace any idler pulleys or the belt tensioner because they seemed ok. al...

run rich? what would be the result of that? Is it worth it? Would I gain any horsepower, say if I did an exhaust, intercooler, or any other performance mods? what would be next on the order of modsafter injectors? Should I just stick with the factory injectors?

injector upgrade?

Can I upgrade to a bigger injector just like ...

silver 5MT 94 T- leg in MA/ RI

I would love to find the previous owner of my car. It was bought at an auction somwhere in mass and it has a concord subaru decal on it. Some dents and dings on the front drivers side, and it appears to have been in a mild front end collision in the past. Whoever owned it had kids because I found al...

hey I filled her up with 87 and she's running fine, not as peppy as 93 of course. Now about this race gas, where might I be able to get some of this? at the track? the airpport?

well I got the knock sensor in, and I really can feel improvement in acceleration, but she's still skipping and hesitating a little bit. Is it possible that the timing is off enough to make it stumble and hesitate during acceleration? I lined up all of the marks perfectly on the block/ pulleys/ belt...

booyaka

thank you so much! that was his mistake. he lined the crank up with that arrow instead of the backside of the sprocket. what a dumbass. the only reason I say that is because he's been a mechanic for like 15 years. I want my money back ha! much props to you and legacy 777 and everyone else.

ebay td05 intercooler kit install

I was just wondering if this kit would fit my 94 ss 2.2 without any major butchering, or what kits/ turbo/ intercooler setup should I look for to make this install painless as possible

my two cents

I picked up a 94 ss in fair condition for 800. The motor only has 80 grand on the clock runs like a champ. I bought it from a shady used car dealer who didnt even know it was a turbo or awd, cuz the badges fell off. To be honest I wouldnt even sell my car for 3000 cuz Its such a nice car for the buc...
