    Need help looking for new or used exhaust mani

    I have a stock Callaway manifold in my garage, I replaced it because one of the studs broke off and it was leaking at that point. Manifold flange is straight and no visible cracks can be seen. I Replaced it with a Steedspeed and ARP hardware. Let me know if you are interested still

    Over boosting and recirculation

    To test the bypass valve you'll need to pressurize it to ~7psi and see if it opens. Im not sure how else but there could be other ways. Boost spike can be dependent on many factors, such as type of WGA (stock vs ATP vs Forge Vs faulty WGA), ambient temperature, gear, exhaust size, leaks in...

    Over boosting and recirculation

    The turkey is typically the result of a cold air intake, it is also present in stock form but the stock airbox muffles the sound. I have never heard of the turkey sound being caused by a faulty WGA in my 12 years of ownership. Im assuming the car has a CAI?

    Turbohoses SMIC kit

    I haven't driven a FMIC setup so I don't know for sure, but the piping on the SMIC is very short and the IC itself is smaller so there is less time required to pressurize the setup. The stock SMIC drops approximately 1-1.5 PSI (the inlet might be at 8psi but by the time the air travels trough...

    Turbohoses SMIC kit

    The Turbohoses SMIC was the first mod for my MSP back in 2005, and is a very good upgrade. I run 8 psi, and never notice the heat soak. I like how it improved my throttle response and allows me to downshift less in the slower turns as it breathes so much better than stock. I also use a Steed...

    Best first engine mod?

    THe biggest weakness on the MSP is the intercooler and midpipe. The stock intercooler drops a couple psi from its inlet to outlet, and the midpipe has a 1" pipe connecting the catalytic converters. Replacing either of these is the best place to start, and then get some kind of tune and you are...

    need more power!

    My first mod was a Turbo Hose SMIC and Forge bpv, which provided a huge increase in drivability. After the installation of a 2.5" mid pipe (with high flow cat) things got much better. The JDM Sam tuned Unichip was the icing on the cake. Three years later, things got much better with the newly...
