Knowing him he had a date set with Cobb weeks ago, lol. I am guessing he has a plan already

You sir need to stop posting porn without NSFW tags.

Sex. I think I want this setup on my car. I had dreams of crazy 75mm TB, mega rev10 manifold and massive LICP but fuck, the simplicity of it is just a thing of beauty. Jealous!

**Kracka** · 02-15-2011

Yup, Mondo pretty much laid things out!

I'm hoping to baseline this Thurs or Fri evening then get the exhaust manifold installed Saturday morning to be back on the dyno Saturday afternoon. If that all goes as planned then I'd like to start attacking the IM/TB the following Saturday. If, and that's a big if, everything goes smoothly and according to my best-case-scenario plan then testing/tuning will all be completed before the end of the month.

Transfer case started howling and puked it's fluid all over the road last night.

good luck! hopefully it turns out better than shawns.

OMG, sorry to hear.

**Kracka** · 02-16-2011

Sad sight:

The car is currently on the lift getting inspected.

**Murlo26** · 02-16-2011

Let us know the outcome, I really hope you get some mitsu warranty love.

Thanks, me too. I am really trying to stay positive about this and hoping warranty takes care of me.

Check my previous post, I edited it, it will give you some hope.

If anyone can get it fixed under warranty, it's Don. Don is the man you want on your side. Hopefully he will pull through for you Chris.

**Kracka** · 02-16-2011

Eby (Don's service manager) confirmed the transfer case was overfilled with fluid and documented the fill and drain were untouched with factory paint seal intact. He also said this is the 2nd they've seen like this this week.

**asshanson** · 02-16-2011

Recall time? Glad you're getting it fixed under warranty.

**Kracka** · 02-16-2011

I just off the phone with them again and they're saying they filled the fluid to the proper level, cleaned everything up, and it appears all seals are intact and the fluid was coming out of the top case breather tube. After test-driving the car they're saying everything is functioning OK and not making any whining or howling noises. A case has been opened with Mitsubishi with everything documented in case a problem arises in the future, but for now they're saying the car is ready to go. I'll of course listen for any noise very carefully and if I don't feel it's 100% I'll be leaving it at the dealership.

Sweet! No down time ftw!

I am going to see if MAP can check my levels while my car is there...better safe than sorry.

Definitely, this is beginning to sound like more common of a problem. One up there and two down here that we know about...so far. Easiest thing to do is just remove the fill plug and let any excess drain out.

Wonder if it'd be worth it to "not" have MAP check it, and bring it to the dealer to check it as MAP would break that factory paint seal thing Chris mentioned by checking the fluid level. I'd think a break in that paint would give the dealership an out to say "it's been worked on, we can't guarantee anything anymore". Just a thought.
