well what it is, my MAF is dead. so i'll need a new one. the maf was on at the beginning, and when dana took it off, it actually worked. so,he tried putting it back on, and it died. so, no maf right now. i just need to get another one. stupid things. everyone goes through these fast.

yes, we had loads of fun.if you heard the second video(not up yet), you would hear the crazy stupid car.
 
there goes dino again acting like he knows what he's doing.
he was lucky. pffftt.....2 to 1 says he wasn't even sober.

....he was sober:(...but you can ACT like he was drunk as s***...at least it's running...lol..thank GOD.
 
I'm mostly to blame for the foul mouth. LOL. Christmas eve + long ass couple of work days + cigarette smoke in my face + not looking forward to the long drive home at ass 'o clock at night = potty mouth dino.

I've read this before and heard this logic, and while I'm somewhat skeptical of that page in particular, there may be some truth to it. If nothing else, frequent oil changes ARE good during break in.

I can't reccomend flooring it and redlining it right out of the garage, but if you want to get on it a bit, go for it.

HOWEVER, don't drive it AT ALL until you get the MAF issue fixed...and also don't forget the fact that you do have a brand new clutch to break in, so you do need to take it somewhat easy for that.

In the forged motor I installed this past weekend, i gave it 50-75% throttle (and about 5psi of boost) within the first mile, but i kept it under 4000rpm.

thanks.

you need to break in your s*** too:?

i'm gonna take it UEBER easy for the first 100 miles for the clutchs' purpose...but then..i'm gonna spank it a bit..

Yeah, I hate clutch break in.

What sucked for me is that when i first went forged (back in 04 or so) I did a 1000 mile break in on my engine.

I then turned up the boost and started tuning.

The clutch wouldn't hold past 10psi or so, so I needed to replace the clutch (which is a pain because I just had the opportunity to two weeks prior) and then do another 600 mile break-in on that. :(

YUCK. i guess it's good that i am not running boost.lol..

btw, you checked my compression, any idea what you think i could have in the motor?
 
Kansei said:
600 mile clutch break-in? wow you're really killin me here. They should sell that s*** already broken in.
bahaha. i guess you've got one to break in as well?

oh well i'll do a light break in @100 miles and slowly step it up...the issue with that is i wanna be able to break it in w/ the mototune method.
