I'm looking to put the turbo setup on during winter break, but I may just be interested in doing it before then haha. I'm having this guy install the manifold and oil pan as well, because I can at my house anymore haha.

lilredrex · 10-15-2011, 10:50 PM

keep it up on the ka.....my ka journey is hella rough, but imma stick it out........0 oil press after a new oil pump, replaced oil pump to have a bad first start.....gave it gas to keep it alive.....ended up losing all compression in 3 cyl......down to 30psi in #4.......

KA>SR though...ill be back

c_mancuyas8 · 10-17-2011, 02:06 AM

I actually used a t25 instead. I had bought an adapter but it sat to low and the exhaust wouldve been a pain in the ass but it couldve with some patience
I just ran out of it lol

better go down to costco, get their value pack of 15 headgaskets.

c_mancuyas8 · 10-17-2011, 09:55 PM

hahahaha oh yeah? how come?

Mitsubayati · 10-17-2011, 10:54 PM

Chris, I'm pretty sure he said that because you didn't make mention of the head being redecked. I think regardless of whether the headgasket blew or not, every time you remove the head, it should be decked or at least checked for levelness (spelling).

What happened to the front cover/oil pump?

c_mancuyas8 · 10-17-2011, 11:19 PM

haha yeah I know. Somehow that piece that comes down that has a bolt in the bottom ( I believe its the oil pressure valve?) Broke off :/ I think it was cracked already or just weak and when I was trying to change the oil pan a few weeks ago I broke it. But it is all fixed now. Im really hoping that Ill have enough time next weekend to finish it all up and have pics of it actually in the car running doin burnouts and backflips. lol jk gotta break clutch in first

waxball88 · 10-20-2011, 10:38 PM

The new ecu enthalpy sent me works and works great. Car rips on 8psi. I'm fighting for traction (need better tires) and to put my lsd in.

c_mancuyas8 · 10-20-2011, 10:56 PM

kick ass man! Thats what i was gonna get next till all these activities needed to be done haha. I dont get shit for traction now lol. What lsd you have?

waxball88 · 10-20-2011, 11:11 PM
