I do not have adjustable cam gears, but I'd love to learn the process of degreeing cams.

I rattle canned it black last fall, filled in a lot the holes in the firewall and other places. I like the way it turned out. I did prep the bay very well as well, engine was out, cleaned, sanded and primed, etc. Some people hate it, some people like it.

Re: My Talon
Still waiting for Fedex to bring me a present! The car is in an un-heated garage so with this crappy weather I might not be feeling up to finishing the last little bit of stuff till it's in the 40's again.

Re: My Talon
Just showed up this morning:
My Asus Eee PC Netbook! I already have Link V3 on there ready to go!
This thing weighs like 3 lbs with the 6-cell battery. It's tiny! I like the multi-touch touch pad. It has a N280 processor (1.66ghz, the fastest you can get right now), wireless b/g/n and bluetooth, 160GB HD, 10" screen, and it boots Windows XP really fast! I got this just for link lol, and internet browsing.

Re: My Talon
Thanks to Brandon (Halon) for some over-the-phone troubleshooting. He helped me fix a few problems I didn't even know I had.

Re: My Talon
No problem. Hopefully you get some more of that figured out. I guess I'm just not an expert when it comes to calibrating GM MAF applications. Mitsu MAF's for life
I hope you get it all worked out though, because I'm anxious to see what that thing puts down! |

Re: My Talon
Thanks to Aaron (turbotalon1g) and Nick (munchgsx) for coming over and helping with the trial and error that eventually got my car idling! woohoo! Now the real tuning can begin.
I had to adjust my MAFComp +50% across the board to get the car to idle and be at a normal, stable A/F. It was just dumping gas at idle.

Re: My Talon
Adding 50% to the MAFComp table doesn't make any sense. Something else is way off or broken to need to do that across the board. Having to add 5-25% in the 50hz/idle column is common with MAFs that don't meter the best at idle or are hacked, but having to add a 50% is a lot and weird to have to add anything near that in the 150hz+ columns.

I've read that the GM maf's require a lot of adjustment. The car idles at 500hz lol.
