I have a digital prosport boost gauge which reads 10 psi when I'm in full boost. Then when I have my laptop hooked up to my SSAFC, it only reads 7psi. They are both tapped into the same vacuum source, and I have no codes for vacuum leaks or anything. My boost gauge prior to installing my boost...

I posted in the SSAFC thread, but figured I'd make a whole new post. Has anybody gotten the R4 software to work with Windows 8? It just gives me errors when I try to connect. It was working on my Windows 7 laptop, but since that died, and the only options now for laptops have Windows 8, I'm...

When driving under light throttle, the car stumbles and goes super lean. It hits 17.2 and loses all power, then it shoots to 10.2 afr. I've cleaned out the MAF and hasnt bad a difference. It seems to happen around the same amount of throttle. I have no codes other than my VTCS and secondary O2...

I finally got around to installing my Forge UNOS MBC last night. I bought it used from a buddy's 1.8T jetta, and after I installed it and took it for a test drive, it spiked to 15 psi (scared the s*** out of me) and then it never went past 10 psi, but I haven't really gotten on it for fear of...

So has anybody switched to e-85? I've got access to a bigger fuel pump, just need bigger injectors (I've got an SSAFC to control the . How possible would it be to hit the 250ish whp mark running e-85 with a stock motor?( I know it depends on a good tune as well) I would really like to make the...

Should the stock turbo taper down to like 3 or 4 psi of boost when in higher RPM? I hit 7 psi just fine, but then it tapers down to 3 or 4 psi. I also know that its normal for it to taper down some, but thats 50% of my boost right there. I just replaced the turbo with a brand new t25 back in...

I have the P0660 code. Does anybody know where you can just order a solenoid? I found a thread with a part number from 2009, but it didn't say where from. (FS05-18-741, if that is even right). Also if someone could post a picture of the actual solenoid too, I'd appreciate it.

I don't really know what could be causing it to have no power in any of the higher gears, but its kinda disappointing. Especially with the mods I have done to the car, which are SSAFC, ebay FMIC, pope dp, and corksport 3in catless exhaust. It does have a CEL right now for the VCTS actuator being...

When I went to run some errands today, I pulled out onto the road and looked out my rear view mirror and couldn't see anything but white smoke (a ridiculous amount of smoke). So I pulled into the next available parking lot, got out with the car still running, and it was oil being burnt like...

So when I push the clutch pedal in, and the engine drops down to idle, I can hear a squeaking/rattling noise. Also, when the car warms up, and you try to accelerate normally (not launching) the whole car shudders and seems like it's trying to rip itself apart. The clutch holds well, it doesn't...

So the plan is is to buy just regular protege doors that have no rust on them, then plasti dipping the whole car afterwards. I would imagine the regular protege doors are the exact same shape/size/mounting, so what are everybody's thoughts? Will this work, as long as they are from a 2003?

Does anybody know the part number for the rear driver's side wheel speed sensor? And is there a cheaper place to get one other than Mazda for $200?

Like it says, I'm looking for a GT28RS, gently used would be perfect, as I do not want to spend $1100-$1300 for new. Let me know what you guys have, thanks!

So after researching on the forum, I've seen a lot of different answers to whether or not it's a direct replacement to the stock T25. Oil restrictors, clocking the turbo, reroute the IC piping, sock WGA's, etc. I'm not completely sure if I'm even going to get a GT28RS or not yet, but if it's a...

While out on a cruise tonight with a couple friends, we came to a long straight country road and everybody was giving it their all on the straight. So to keep up, I downshifted and punched it. I looked over to my boost gauge and it was reading 8, then 9 psi before I let off for fear something...

Does anybody know where to buy an ATP wastegate actuator? While installing my fmic, I replaced the vac line going from the stock wga, and while i had it off, i tried blowing through it and could push air through it. Not a lot, but enough for me to want to replace it. I also want to be able to up...

I just installed my ebay FMIC kit along with a Greddy Type RZ blow off valve, vented to atmosphere. I relocated the MAF to approximately 5 or 6 inches from the TB, and then the BOV about another 8 or 9 inches away from the MAF. I have adjusted the stiffness of the BOV from all the way to the...

Anybody know where to get some? I've checked a couple places online and haven't found anything.

The last time the P0171 code showed up, it turned out to be a bad battery messing with the SSAFC, and it went away. That was back in January. Today the car randomly had a rough idle, it would drop to around 500 RPM and then shoot up to 1k RPM, but it never stalled. And as soon as it started the...

The bottoms of all 4 of my doors are rusting (inside below weather strip). The passenger side doors are starting to rust bad enough that it is starting to wrap around the bottom of the door and is visible from the outside. Also the clip that holds the rear bumper on is starting to rust on the...
