Singh grooves bro, look it up :party:

HAHA my thermodynamics professor was talking about that guy last week.

I like the comprehensive theoretical and mechanical guide, its not often that we get this level of documentation for a device like this. ;) https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...c04ce332d3.png |
since when was crawford reputable? like ever?

I was actually laughing when I read this
"All production vehicles come from the factory with room for improvement. Insurance companies force the manufacturers to lower the power output by 20% to create a buffer to restrict the components from operating at their full potential. This is to ensure that those components will not fail no matter how hard the driver tries. The way they accomplish this buffer is by changing many settings in the computer that control how much fuel the vehicle consumes, and the timing of the ignition. The sensor that reads some of this information is called the MAF (mass-air-flow). Instead of voiding your warranty by cracking the car's computer and manually changing those settings, the patented Eco-Block simply tricks the MAF sensor to read a more appropriate mix that safely unlocks 8% of your vehicle's restricted potential." I work at a Toyota dealer and I'm pretty sure if we had a car with issues show up with one of these it wouldn't be covered. Subaru is super strict and picky about what they cover so I can't see them covering it either I questioned them on their instagram and I'm half expecting my comment to be deleted and to find that I've been blocked |
aka
we move the maf so that it reads less air, thus running leaner and more timing. aka when you blow your crap up, you can have the dealership replace the engine under warranty cause this thing is un-traceable. ..........I'm just waiting for the lawsuits, and the hilarity that will ensue. |
Yet another company selling the "put a resistor in the MAF sensor wire" trick?

They either blocked me or they deleted their instagram LOL

Lisle 20250 Compression Tester: yeah or nah?

I wouldn't bother with a compression tester, as long as you have compressed air handy leakdown testers are basically better in every way AFAIK.
--Ian |
Agreed, but I have no compressed air source. So....
|
I have that same one (branded Craftsman), that was my Father's. It's at least 60 years old, and has tested dozens of cars. Only thing that has failed was the o-ring, and I buggered that up when I was much younger. Replacement was cheap.
So I'd give it a hearty thumbs up. |
Do we have a shop megathread? I've got a bunch of shit to fix but haven't touched my shop in a decade.

Goys, are we still sending people to WitchHunter Performance for injector cleaning and flow testing service or is there another vendor du jour?
Stock NB injectors BTW. I forgot to ask them to be tested at 60psi so the results came in the default 43.5, but oh well. I'm glad they are now within 0.8% |

Poscat for you. I love that silly project
|
I need some help finding a fitting that I thought should exist but cannot find.
Aluminum tee. AN10 on the opposing legs. With AN6 in the middle, all male. Closest I can get right now is AN10 tee with an adapter. |
Yeah, best I could find is Earls AT925110ERL plus AT991914ERL.
|
I hate extra adapters but I guess I might have to go that route.

Man, what a hell of a lot of work. Seems to me they could have gutted the shell, built a tube frame and eliminated a lot of cutting and welding. But it's going to be one hell of a cool car when they are done. |
