dont worry ziggy all that crap is headed up this way, at least for here in ohio were supposed to get it, thunderstorms turning into snow storm

nice job spud, looks like a sleeper, i like it
im tryin to get my talon together and keep having problems constantly
i suppose me & 98neonrt can race when his car is done with the swap & i can find out how good this AWD is on a holeshot
i expect parts to fly and my car to not move very far at all

a friend of mine just got a 91? eclipse gsx about a week ago...p&p head, p&p stock turbo, header, cai, and its an awd 5speed running about 18psi of boost......personally i think my almost stock neon was faster then that thing...

hopefully the crush washers will be in tomorrow since everywhere was closed today because of the snow

the gearing makes the sound slow, depends if he did all that & its lean it wont run worth a sh*t untill he gets more fuel to it, i just want mine to run for now, it should be pretty quick for all the **** i bought for it, but i know it will never be the fastest thing on the road like evryone always thinks about their cars

i dont think he knows alot about cars....so that might be a problem...

i got my new oil feed line yeserday and it did come with a new banjo bolt and the 2 crush washers
but i dont need the bolt or the line....just the washers, so the guy at the dealership gave me a discount...

i plan on going to bed here pretty soon for a few hours, then im gonna go and put the washers on.....i should be able to hear it run today.....i hope[&:]

my friend that owns the eclipse

well i started my car today and it really sounds sweet....especially the BOV.....every time you tap the gas you can hear it blow off....

but it wouldnt be right if it didnt have some problems on the first start up, so here we go....
so when i start the car it idles kinda rough.....i didnt have the fuel pressure adjusted yet because i dont have a presuure gauge, so i might go and get one tomorrow so i can get that out of the way.....
and i cant seem to get the map clamp to adjust how i need it.....no matter how i turn the adjuster screw it still idles the same....im just hoping that its because of the fuel presure....
once i get the pressure set i will hopefully be able to tell if the clamp makes a difference....

the car sounds like a subaru with a loud exhaust........as soon as i get it running smoothly i will put up a sound clip of it
man its just so bad *** i wanna drive it so badly[&:]

check to make sure your bov isnt leeking. you shouldnt get much from it without being in gear.
