My gaskets come in today...im hoping that fixes my issue and I can go back driving my car again! not driving my girls saturn or hitching a ride. Kenny did me good he sent me the gaskets free and 2 dayed at not cost to me with my pnp harness. So tonight ill install the new gasket and warp all the piping and hope the new gaskets fix the issue.

 

Did the blown gasket just cause a loss of power?

 

Yeh it could cause some power loss, Also before I was running the wg into the downpipe witch was restricking the flow. Now with the open WG dump it seems to haul a little more ___ lol, Its the throw you back in your seat type pull now... I need a SSQ bov as Tials suck, that should stop the stalling, The car is stalling around every corner even with colder plugs and proper gapping... DAMN YOU TIAL!

 

You can't just swap those 2 can ya. that sucks!

 

Well you can but its ghetto we did it on my buddys civic and it seems all ghetto and ____...

 

wont the Tial and HKS BOV have a diff mounting flange? u wont need to get a new BOV flange welded on your charge piping? i know i would have to on my civic if i switched from my Greddy Type S bov....

and i didnt know that the BOV could cause stalling, me thinks its a whole other issue Kaeon...just an FYI man, i wanna see sum success here!!!!'

GL bro

 

It'd fit in w/ my bumper fitment!

 

The SSQ and tial flangs are very close if you have a tial "clamp" you can make a SSQ work on a Tial flange but like I said thats ghetto...

Being the car is MAF and the BOV vents to atmosphere yes it can cause stalling...

 

Dont think the HKS SSQV will help you out... it still vents to atmosphere like the tial..
but you can get a recirc. kit for the HKS unlike the tial.

 

I think it does help the problems - at least thats what ZPI's tests show

 

Exactly my point!! lol

And yes the SSQ will take care of the surge problem even if it is vented to atmosphere...

 

I had the Blitz Dual Drive w/ my IS. that was pimpolicious.

FYI - random posts are sweet

 

It might cause you trouble later if you add a FMIC...
I own a vented SSQV on my DSM but have a GM Maf and translator...

But before I would get crazy compressor surge on low boost levels on my 16g.. Low boost and HKS didnt work for me.

Hopefully our tC is a differnet case. Keep us updated.

 

I would like to know how to combat the stalling as well. As I am looking to purchasing the Stage 0 in April.

 

I think zpi offers your choice of wastegates with the purchase which is why the price is lower. Ask them which one to get so to avoid the issue

 

Yeah, I was planning on asking Kenny what he recommends when I get up there on the 4th for my exhaust work.

 

I'll be there on the 3rd if you are close to the area. More people for beer, the better

 

If you are staying over till the next day (4th), then we will more than likely (usually) go out for lunch or dinner with Kenny and the gang. So, stick around if you can. Your right, the more people the better... I'm also bringing another local, he drives an xA.

 

I already called the grape smirnoff ice I mean buuur

 

GOT THE CAR RUNNING!!!! It does have a jerking issue now when it down shifts but im assuming once it gets tuned it will stop jerking and such.
