Cool Very strange why it would be acting up on the street then ?
Glad those logs looked good, that should be enough fuel for another 25-30whp I would think, I know we can push it past 100% if needed.

Because it's being loaded differently.

Yeah, not enough for E98 though. Would probably have to bump the base. Hopefully DW figures out how to make a 1650ish injector behave on the X.

I don't see myself doing E98 ever, but who knows, maybe I will try it. If i did that I would more than likely run higher base fuel pressure to try to get it to work...but E98 seems like a pain to try and I don't think I want to stress my motor that much...not now anyway. 550whp on Shanes dyno would be cool though

Hmmmm. An Evo X that is fine on the dyno, but has fuel problems that cause knock on the street, where have I heard this before.

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
Looks like the oil pan was leaking a bit. They are fixing it now. Then I think they are going to bleed the clutch again.
EDIT:
Oil pan sealed now again now, clutch bleed again, we will see how they hold up.

Ah, yea they don't seem to go as smooth as the 8/9's...but people have had a lot more time to iron out the 4g63 than the 4b11...we will get to easy street someday too
The oil pan was a used one and was bent slightly in a corner, so they reshaped it and resealed it...so should be good to go now.

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
X's will get to the point where dsm's, 8/9's are... the point where things like leaks and things needing to be fixed constantly are normal/acceptable on a daily basis.. That's just Mitsu's Style.

Oh joy, I cannot wait, lol
For some X's they are there already, you just have to mod enough stuff with really complicated setups

If tonight's work doesn't pan out should I go with one big fuel pump or add another? lol. From what I've read, parallel 044's is the tits setup. I would probably just do a Magnafuel though.

Honestly I don't want to know this answer, I will assume your setup will work!
Godspeed!

I think it's broken, everything's fine!

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
clutch pedal dropped to the floor again tonight Me and my buddy who works at Toyota inspected the hydraulic lines for the clutch and the master/slave cylinder and it looked good...so starting to think the master cylinder is bad
Sigh.
However, no knock on multiple runs tonight and shifting at 8500 keeps me in boost and its smooth to the next gear!

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
Shitty. Does the car have that Magnus CMC in it? Bleed it bleed bleed it. Does the slave cyl rod move at all when the pedal is pushed?
