no worries turboyaris, all good
I get a PO420 CEL which makes sense because I'm catless. Not a CEL I worry about

I think with all the troubles it is to work on these modern engines, I'm going to go with plan B.
Skip doing anything serious to the car get a CAI and call it done. Use turbo money to pay credit line off and get a new bike for the fun toy (Can-Am Spyder, fast, fun, practical and very different). |

^ That's a smart man. I wish I had that kind of discipline. LOL
make sure you buy the CAI, pulleys, header and exhaust from me.

I dont know about the smartcar comparison, Its a 3 wheeled motorcycle not a car. I will say its a bit like styling of the triumph rocket III that my farther has, it is fugley (f***ing Ugly) at first because its so different then it grows on you. My lucky father got to test drive one and if he didn't have the rocket he would buy one, still might later on he says. Besides Zero to sixty in 4.5 seconds, sounds like fun to me! |

Bad CVs are usually from launching. As long as you apply power smoothly to the axles, you shouldn't have much of a problem, if say, you were launching.
Btw, I've been S/C'd, with no CEL. So.... idk. Btw, I'd listen to Cali Yaris, before you do anything else. Hes probably one of the most furthest advanced as far as tuning for this engine. |

It was failure of the CV boots letting contaminates in more then failure of the CV itself. I do a lot of turns stop-to-stop and it failed in a week we had when it was very cold (-20c) too. That's my guess how/why it happened.

no - fortunately that comes with its own fuel controller and switch (you can turn it off, it's a clutch-driven s/c). I've just made a deal with Blitz and acquired the last one in the country, until more come in from Japan.
Talk to Laszlo, Lt Noogie, jdmekcivic, and others who are enjoying mild but reliable boost.

After some reading on here, It might be easier just to do a 1.8L 2ZZ-GE swap to get some real power, not sure what electrical items other than the ecu that need to be swapped.
Back to reality i'll just install the NST pulley set (not installed yet, still to dam cold) and get a injen CAI and call this daily driver done. Mid summer or next year get the new bike for the toy. Hard choice! Last edited by FryGuy; 02-13-2009 at 09:19 PM. |
