I can't tell if my wastegate actuator or not, I am able to adjust by hand or pliers like moved the rod. Does this mean it's broke or am I missing a clip or something? I believe it's the WGA cause I stopped boosting like 2 weeks ago

Ohh okay I see, well guess I'll have to get a shop to narrow it down for me, I think I might have bad turbo seals cause I brlieve I run out of oil more when I boost a lot

What causes the oil to burn? I'm just trying to find out so I know what parts im gonna have to save up for to fix it. Thanks for the help!!

I have a oil leak that I have no idea where it's coming from. Last time I had my car serviced by a mechanic it was for my harmonic balancer and my timing belt and that's when I asked the mechanic if he had noticed any leaks but he said no just from the oil pan a little. But I was looking...

Question about this subject!!! If you have a faulty oil cooler that will cause some of your oil to disappear right? I'm having the same issue but I don't smell any strong burning smell and hardly any oil leaks from the bottom of my engine. I also say it's my oil cooler cause when I took it to...

Ohh alright got it!! Thanks for the advice guys! Yeah that forge WGA is all look and no performance really, the guy that had this MSP before me said most of the aftermarket engine parts were put on at 100,000 miles, my car now has 150,xxx so you can see it only had probably a years life worth...

Ohh okay thanks, and even though I boost to like 12 psi (max) that one that's rated at 6 psi should be okay right??

Okay but with this one will I still feel as much fuel cut as my forge wastegate or will it be better?

I am only posting this because I am confused on which one to get. My Forge wastegate went out early this week and broke I believe it broke so quick because it was rated at like 8 psi and I boost at anywhere between 8-12 psi. And yes whenever I would haul booty sometimes ID get fuel cut bad. The...

Does anyone on here know if I buy a rear window diffuser for a evo 8/9 if it'll fit my 03 spicy speed so if anyone can help it'd be greatly appreciated thanks!!

Yeah my a/c is cold as ice on the highway just not stop and go, oh well my gf is kinda used to it anyway lol. But having the FMIC does give it more HP right?

Ohh okay well I just wanted to make sure that I wasn't the only one it was happening too, I usually don't use my a/c much personally only when I have my gf riding with me, I was thinking about getting some heat shields for my aluminum piping see if that'll take some of the heat away, from the...

Oh wow I would have never guessed, is there anyway to prevent this or cause less heatsoak?

I'm not trying to cool down my radiator properly it already does that with the two spal fans on a stock protege radiator, all I wanna know is how I can keep my a/c cold at all times, cause sometimes in stop and go traffic it's gets a little warmer and I have already filled the system with freon...

So nvm, I had bought the fan only to find out I actually have 2 fans and they are both spals so I decided just to return the fan, but guess I have to keep researching about how to fix my a/c problems in stop and go traffic

Okay I got a slim fan from autozone and it has the same plug as my other fan, my question is should there be two plugs like that or am I gonna have to run it off one plug??

Ha! This might sound random or weird but I was going to clean the back of the plug for the a/c switch numbers so I could try to get my 2 and 3 to come on so that's what's I did I cleaned it with a q-tip asporyl alcohol, to my suprise there was quite a bit of dirt on the plugs. So I did that and...

I know, I'm only running one fan on my radiator and want to run two, but I need to know where the plug is for the second fan

Yeah I have a FMIC I guess that's why I didn't bother looking that up until now. So my next question is if I do wanna run 2 fans to see if it helps how do I do that? I didn't really like the corksport radiator for this car. It's so heavy I mean I still have it I could probably just get it...

Well a while back I switched from a corksport all aluminum radiator to just a regular protege radiator, it holds it's own by keeping my car cool and running smooth but my a/c is never ice cold only when I'm on the highway. If I'm in stop and go traffic the a/c gets a little warmer than what it...
