Sorry about you're luck. Hopefully its nothing major. Did you ever get a good tune for that setup?

Maybe you shattered the clutch plate which could explain the loud pop.
Best of luck to you

Not yet, no spaces open, and no time. Looks like this set me back a "little bit", as far as getting the proper tune.

Seriously man.... what's with you breaking ALLL THE TIME?!?!
I don't know of anyone else that seems to have had more problems with their car.
You have a shop like AMS do the work, right? Or who puts it all together?

Kev, just saw your post. Dang, sorry to here about your troubles again. I think it time for an evo IX. When is your wife birhday again
Good luck. As for me just got my car back from ams with the 2.3. Did not get the peak power and torque they advertise but the car feel strong all around now. the powerband is amazing and boost hit at 2800. I'm just a little disappointed for the amount money spend but that a different story. The way we keep spending on our car we could have been sitting in a nice new evo IX.

Hey Wayne, I don't know what is with me breaking stuff, it does seem like a cloud over my head, I have 78K miles on the car, 99% of those miles were fun. I don't know what happened here, but should soon. I let the Mitshu dealership put the parts on, I don't trust myself to do that!! I can't get pissed about it, whats done is done, time to look ahead to a new and improved part.

ms109 is oxygenated fuel... you ran it to lean. For that fuel to work properly it must be tuned for it.

considering you are on the stock turbo Wayne, You are right where you should be for HP and torque. The stock snail can only spin so hard.Originally Posted by gashero

Slap a 50 Trim on there and you will REALLY see what that bigger motor can do.
You situation was a weird one. with you trashing the stock crank The stroker motor was just as expensice as a 2.0.....so why not.
Kevin, Sounds like a T-case but its hard to tell this far away. Let me know if there is anything I can help you with.

Actually, the A/f was fine, on the "rich side", so that wasn't the issue. I went from 12.5's at 110MPH to 12.1's (9 consistant runs) 113 MPH, with just the fuel alone! And that was consistant 1.6 second 60ft's.Originally Posted by joeymia

You know I will Eric!!!I am eyeballing the 50 trim! I agree with the snail can only spin so much, then its out of its "effective" spinning range. I LOVE THE HELL out of my setup!! I highly recommend it!!! I will let you know what happened.Originally Posted by AutoMotoSports
