Well anytime we had to wire in a piggyback or something, we always had to put in a pull down resistor because the MAF voltage would be too high. The factory ecu has one on it's input circuitry... Try starting it like I told you and see if it does anything.
What have you done to your MSP today?

Hey question for anyone who may know... If there is a msp wit stock turbo pushin 14psi n a msp with a gt28 pushin 14psi both same mods and tuned will they make the same power?

Is that a test? The 28 can push more air at 14psi whereas the stock turbo is pretty much out of breath by then so the 28 will make more power.

he's responded to several of my posts in the exact same way. You know nothing, despite what you can support with evidence. He's still right.

You all need to learn to stop abbreviating everything, just type that s*** out it does not take that much longer and it makes the reading so much easier for at least me.

Yea I noticed swirl posted on the AEM forums. After some more in depth reading of the 200+ page manual for the tuning software, I think I may have to adjust some settings before the car will be able to start. Also I may have to update the firmware.
So in short, it's possible that I have it wired correctly and I'm going to check the firmware / software side of things before adjusting any wires.

if that were possible, the gt28 wouldn't be an upgrade.

not bad!
paid $80 cdn for the pipes which came with all the rubber couplers you see and 80% of the tbolt clamps, $25 usd for the technoweld. i still have 8-9 rods left so plenty to do my wheels.
i have 2x 3" vibrant 45 pipes which are entirely too big to fit anywhere lol. so ill have to cut the bends out and join them to fab an intake cause i obviously didn't think about the intake when i made teh coldpipe lol. damn bov.
now i could have just got the cx kit from ebay for $75? but they want $83 to ship it to canada.... so id say im doing alright. when i go water to air, ill put the intercooler in the same location as the smic, or just cut the welds and shuffle stuff around =)

ahh...i thought u actually welded them, but i see now that you used the technoweld stuff...
thats more like brazing or soldering then welding lol
thats more like brazing or soldering then welding lol
yes it is. like brazing it requires the heat of the metal to create the chemical reaction to bond the rod to the metal, but once it is properly bonded, APPARENTLY, its strong as steel..
considering it melts with a propane torch i doubt that but its certainly strong enough for intercooler piping. i had to hit the flange with a 2lb sledge and some swing to break the weld. which really just imploded the pipe first ha.
but hey.. welders are expensive lol.

Quick question. Do we have mag or hall style cam/crank sensors?
