Hey guys, I'm back on the forums but you probably don't know me and that's because I came from the MSP forum. But I sold my MSP about a year ago because of the problems is constantly gave me, though, some of it was driver error (hand). Anyways I'm going N/A (actually I've already been N/A on my...

^^ What he said for sure. Other things to check for: *Hows you clutch? If it's worn replace or upgrade, whatever you want. *If you wanna put in a lightened flywheel, now is a good time. *I replaced my throw out bearing, even if it's still useable, just replace it, they're inexpensive...

Yeah i heard good things about DEI. That price is also really cheap, It's like $70 buck on ebay for that same package! Lemme ask you guys, do you think I'm going to far with wrapping the intake? ... ehhh, what am i saying, of course I'm not....

well im thinking about wraping both the header and my intake piping.

gt28rs (or larger)... You've got more than everything else you need to run it!

Do you think this will insulate the air inside the piping and keep it cooler? Or as header wrap is, does it keep the heat from your engine bay?

Sounds good. What is the condition?

If anyone has one let me know your price shipped. Im in 91311. Thanks

You should post this in the n/a protege forum too if your allowed to. Im sure some protege guys would jump on this deal.

Im at a piont where im willing to sell my car a buy a stock 1.6 civic that gets 35mpg. In all honesty, that sounds really good right now. Do you knopw what kind of MPG those motors get? I've never done an engine swap before. Im pretty sure the engine and tranny bolt right up but what about...

What can i do to make my car n/a? Im thinking about purchasing an certified engine from protege garage but Im tired of the unreliability my car has come with over the years.

Did you ever figure out what the problem was?

Thats what it probably is then; after 140k mi. I wouldn't be surprised. I know its not the vac lines because i replaced them ALL when i had a small boost leak in one of the hoses. And i know it isnt the turbo because the wheel spins smoothly with no play. Also, what the process of having to...

Were you guys able to blow into the the wastegate with the flap stuck open? Also, can you show me, on the picture, which parts you call the flap, the hinge and the sleeve.

No i did not have time to check the internal wastegate.

No i didnt actually pull off the wastegate and physically see the flap, i just blew air into the wastegate. Should i take it off and check it still? I know man, its just i had other expenses that need to be addressed. But i do know i NEED one now. I couldnt see any cracks during many...

I checked out that thread,it was a good read. but the thing is, i blew air into the line of the wastegate and air did not pass through. Doesn't that mean my WGA is still good? Im pretty sure its not a vac leak, my car is pulled apart right not so i cant even try that if i wanted to. I did the...

If you remove the control arm, you can squeeze your hand in there. Believe me, removing the subframe is a PITA! I did it for an engine mount replacement... damn, what a night that was.

Thats EXACTLY what happened to me.

I had the same problem once and it was the wheel bearing.
