Ok so I have never done any kind of maintenance besides when I got it, I got the valve lash done. And I really didn't know that I should do a 60K service I'm going to order all the maintenance stuff I found from Mitsubishi's service guide thing. But my question is am I fine with just getting belts? Or should I get the tensioner's and pulleys also?

Heres my list, let me know if I'm missing anything
1. All the belts (Serpentine, Timing, Balance, etc)
2.Water Pump
3.Gaskets (for the engine and IM)
4.Cabin Air filter
5.Obviously Oil & filter

I feel like I'm missing some stuff...

 

You'll need the tensioners and pullies as well not to mentin now would be the best time to get the delta cam done

 

Already did it should be here on Wednesday! Thanks Lanzer!

Oh man forgot! I was trying to do a search, I think I found the answer for it. But want to make sure its correct. The stock exhaust piping is 2" correct? I need to get a Cat on, kinda want to quite the beast down lol. I was going to get a magnaflow hi-flow 2" cat. That should work right? Or is it 2.25?

 

base on what you've said, don't forget a new camshaft seal.

lanzer is right you should replace tensioners and pulleys, myself i did not replace sprockets.

not sure on the exhaust.

 

The stock exhaust size is 2.25"

 

inside or outside diameter??

 

outside I guess? I just need to know what the correct size would be for a catalytic converter. Since I'm running cat-less. I just want to get rid of this code, I know everyone says it doesn't effect performance, but I feel a difference in throttle response everytime that code pops on. I don't think it loses power, but the throttle feels heavier once the cat code pops.


So I'm assuming if I go with a 2.25 Cat I should be good to go? or do I need to go with 2.5 so it fits over the stock exhaust? I really have no clue whats going on when it comes to exhaust lol

 

Get the 2.25 it will fit over the exhaust the parts are designed like PVC parts , a 2 1/4" pipe will always for inside it's connecting piece. I hope you have worked with PVC pipe some where down the road. If not sorry for making it complicated , just get 2.25

 

what kind of cat are you going to get? i have the magnaflow hi-flow and still got the cat-code. i had to get a 02 sensor spacer to get it to go away

 

I'll be looking in to the hi-flow cat so that's what I was wondering haha (and I like specifics... s*** like this drives me crazy), I've always wondered if that was the inside or outside diameter.

Not to hi-jack your topic Darewood, sawrry, I was going to make a thread asking this but maybe I can just sneak a quick Q in here: I'll be putting my stage 2 cam in hopefully next weekend. Motor only has about 88 XXXkm's, should I be looking to replace the cam seal or do it regardless?

 

Someone up above said to get it. I actually have it in my rockauto.com cart with all my other maintenance parts. I would probably say its a good decision haha.

And thanks for the input guys!

Raikiri;
You still got the cat code? Thats not cool, I actually have a cat code eliminator but it doesn't work. It still pops up I'll probably get a magnaflow one, and hope that it doesn't throw a code!

I never looked under my car and looked at the cat before it was taken off. Was our o2 sensor in the Cat? or behind it? I've been seeing a lot without a o2 bung. Trying to make sure this thing will work

 

Get the cam seal and as for the o2 sensor there are 2 of them you'll need to put the code eliminator on the 2nd one from the front.

 

I got the weapon-r cat code eliminator and it works for me as I no longer have the code.
