I think im going to stay away from the EBay IC's buschur racing did a test with an ebay ic vs theres and the results where really really bad for the IC. Another option is take the pipes i have from the used kit and try and find someone who can mimac them. Plus side of that is i ditch the 5injector hole in the intake pipe which would be a lot cleaner i believe. Im a little frustrated if i do end up having to return the whole kit to the ***** who tried to screw me im going to be a little mad if i have to start over and go the evo parts route. I have no issue with it just dont want to start over when im so close with the current kit. I also dont want to allow some low life take advantage of me either. So frustrating none the less...

 

Also got my 440's back today. Had them cleaned/tested & modified. Pretty damn good if you ask me.

 

They have just the universal pipings on ebay. I wouldn't run a ebay intercooler too

 

These are 440's flowing 220cc? I think I may be reading it wrong...my 440's flowed 425 at 12.5v.

Edit....oh....NOW I see it, my bad...that is good!

 

lol...

 

ebay intercoolers are only good up to a certain point in hp, I read that thread you were talking about how tempetures went up etc... I think that guy was making around 600, since majority of lancers are making 300 around here it should be fine till you start making higher power then you can switch intercoolers

 

Guess what boys and girls.....its motor swap time!

 

oh yeah!!!!!

 

Alright guys....motor is in... seems to be runing ok, no real knock which is good didnt have to adjust tuning or anything. I still need to reset the ECU again as it was 2am when we finished and both 03 & I where way past tired. We let it idle but had a weird sound that think was the engine lash adjusters as it seems to have gone away. Only real problem is my idle at random seems to rev up to around 3k. Other times its 100% fine. Im fairly sure just needs to reset it and let it idle correctly. Im not sure why as well as when we first started it, it didnt do the normal rev up which seemed odd. Anyways enoug blabin here are the pix...all of them are in this album

My god that was a long day yesterday lol. Didnt even wake up until 11:30!!!! Been lounging all day pretty much doing nothing. Went really good though steady progress through the day.

 

Its looking really good bro!!

 

wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Im am pretty sure the reason why it didnt rev way up after we started it up is due to me having you crank it those few times with the coils unplugged so we could be sure the oil was pumping through there before we put the stress on the bottom end

 

True forgot about that.

 

AHHHH TURBO IT!!! I want to see its power
