you could snag a after market one off an evo but you would need to relocate your battery to where your stock intake use to be, but upgrading to a small battery kit will make the transition smooth and you will save some weight!

My friend has a 240 and he has an open waste gate and I live next to a main road so I can hear him flying down the street to my neighborhood its SO loud. LOL o and he comes and goes at 2 am cause we are messing with cars so everyone here's the O zone layer taking a beating

 

Yah i know i could use and evo one but those are expensive lol. And I want to purchase and injen piping kit and the mini battery this summer sometime. Im trying to save money for a 4g64 dohc or 4g63 swap right now though im looking for the transmission so if anyone has one let me know and send me a price :P

 

i found my evo battery tray on ebay for like40 bux i think. and you will love the injuen pipes. trust me, they are an awesome upgrade.

check cragslist the injen kit are always on their. and like JRR said they are nice!

 

my injen pipes from evo 8 with intake

 

lol you have no idea how many times i have looked at those pictures!

 

ya and the only thing i had to do was cut the bov flange on the intake to make it 1.5" shorter! i think i paid like $400 bnib from lancershop.com for everything i got there.

Looks nice JRR. hey 02 lancer you can get it cheaper but your gonna have to buy it piece by piece

 

Were can you buy it one piece at a time?

 

look thru the for sales here on the forums. ive seen a few intakes and lower pipes floating around, as for the upper pipes i dont think ive ever seen those for sale here, but idk maybe i missed it.

 

Ok so I’m still boost leaking like crazy. I replaced the intake and Tb gaskets. And checked all the couplers again. I got my boost leak tester out and going to test it tomorrow and hopefully I will find the leaks. This 1/4 throttle is really getting annoying. I want to hit boost!

 

boost leak? dang. where does it sound like its coming from or what does it sound like if you can hear it? and dont say like a boost leak lol.




josh

 

Well you can hear the turbo start to spool and then its pop/jerks and air fuel go way rich. low 11's to high 10's. Same thing happened to on friends eclipse and it was a boost leak. I cant even hit boost at all i have to stay in vac. I can only get to 5 vac any more and it starts doing it. Sucks. lol my car was faster N/A then it is now lol

 

hmmm interesting. i kinda had the same thing happen but i cant remember what it was or how i fixed the problem. u sure that the maf is secured tightly? just another thought.


josh

 

yah i checked the maf the other day it seems ok i found this on anouther forum it show's my exact problem

If your car is stuttering/sputtering/shaking/vibrating during acceleration, it is often one of these problems:


boost leak(s) - (check with pressure tester, not just visually)
bad spark plug wires
fouled spark plugs
incorrectly gapped spark plugs - (should be from .028 - .032)
