Check you TPS calibration and make sure you don't have a leak at your throttle body gasket. IACV will usually cause a larger surge in my experience, but a TPS out of calibration or a slight leak at the throttle body will cause a choppy/mildly surging idle. TPS should read 0.48 at idle and...

These are reasonable as well at $199. Speedway is a domestic company but their quality is decent. http://www.speedwaymotors.com/Speedway-SA2010-Racing-Helmet,67137.html *edit* These guys usually have really good deals as well. There are two Pro-Tek 2010's for under $200...

You're missing so much information on your build it is difficult for us to even make a bench racing comparison to similar builds. We don't even know your static compression ratio, what valvetrain you're using, what's your rev limit, what injector size, what header design, exhaust size, tb size...

Is it throwing any codes? When is the last time you did a tune-up? Sounds like it's pulling timing or the timing is off. I have seen this problem in the past occur for two separate reasons. 1). Timing. Check your base timing, make sure it's 16 degrees +/- 2 degrees. Also make sure your intake...

I agree with Sound^ I will say this: winter break is coming up soon. If you are seriously intent on a turbo build, use winter break to acquire yourself some forged rods and pistons. Supertech and eagle usually have pretty good deals and can keep you around stock compression for reasonable...

Lol Muck I always appreciate your logic pwns.

Nice write-up! I'm not a huge fan of Permatex, but that's up to personal taste so w/e lol

High Nox is almost always indicative of high combustion temps. Where is your base timing set? Stock compression or high comp? Answer these first. Then: Try a bottle of Iso-Heet or Guarantee-To-Pass. It's basically just overpriced isopropyl alcohol, but it'll lower combustion chamber temps. You...

Stock GSR vs stock B16a flow comparison.

Just FYI, as far as shear flow and performance is concerned... Flow (best to worst) - stock: ITR/CTR (factory ported b16) > GSR > B16a - Ported: GSR > ITR/CTR = B16a The GSR head also has slightly smaller combustion chambers as well as better quench pad areas...

Wow! That's a good bit of carnage. I've dealt with something like this before, albeit on a small block Chevy. I managed to extract the old crank pulley bolt using a slew of extractor bits, regular drill bits, a dremel, thread chase, and A LOT of patience. it took me and a guy I work with about 7...

I've never used their trans tune. From what I remember about the automatic tegs, you will need to remove the trans to completely drain it and the converter. It's not a turbo 350 with a trans pan and filter lol. If it's like their gas/oil treatment, you'll need to drain it after you've completed...

:welcome: x2. Great deal for a mostly running teg.

Fortune Auto coilovers are some of the best coilovers you can buy. They're hand built to order, and use high quality AmsOil shock oil/components. They are also built to the spring rates you specify when you order. I recently Installed and have been testing a set of 510's w/ 8kF 6kR on my...

Nice! We should have a CI inundation of XS Time Attack lol

Clean car man! Maybe I'll see/meet you at some XS events this year. Just about done getting mine back together. Why the B16b if I may ask? also, what class are you running in?

At worst it's a few grade 8 bolts from the hardware store and a set of adjustable endlinks.

There are some reported cases of the Blox B cams breaking at the cam gear after relatively short periods of use. A few members of Honda Tech had this happen to them. Grenaded their fresh engines. IMO these cams would be a nice choice for you build...

Have you checked out the Hardrace ones? They're OEM design with better rubber supposedly.
