N/S I am actually trading the Honda for a Typhoon. Some one showed interest and wants to do a title for title swap. I have just had my honda for so long it is a great car.

Re: New Ty owner in sylmar ca

Get the truck running right with all the reliability mods....DONT just start launching bigger injectors...bigger turbo etc.....you'd be suprised what the stock setup can due when you TAKE the time to get it all dialed in....have a plan. .. take it slow...If you need help. ..read read and read then shoot out the question of your problem...we are here to help you...remember don't let people belittle you because you wanna be a pioneer and do something different. ..have fun with it also. ...I have a 92 #1917...good luck

If you bought that truck directly from Mike, it probably doesn't need anything. I saw it in February at our breakfast meet, and it was fine. It was running good according to Mike, and he knows what he's doing. He went completely through it including the engine upon his acquisition. Leave it alone for now. Just drive and enjoy it.

The best "reliability mod" is leave the hood closed. Especially on a driver.

Well the truck seems to run fine a drive it everyday as my daily but I feel a misfire on the fwy and I noticed the boos gauge doesn't reach that high mostly like 8 to 9 psi I think it's not running to it's full potential

It seems to run good it's been my daily but I do feel a misfire on the fwy and I feel like it's not getting full boost and has lack of power

First thing IMO, a better fuel pump & an adjustable fuel pressure regulator.

Then some sort of scan tool.
I use Tuner pro5 & data log how it's running. Helps out tremendously!
