Reddo... I'm happy for you! Best results to date.

It's expected that you would have some unfinished business. Unless you know that there was something that specifically NEEDS to change, don't sweat about it (right now). It can be dealt with eventually.

Those parts that you acquired, where are they? In the trunk? By the mechanic?

If they're in your trunk, make sure they're all there. Anything missing, take it up with the mechanic immediately while it may still be fresh in both your minds, and do that FAST.

If you don't trust anyone right now to drive your car, I'd suggest you give the opportunity to one person you can trust who can be a good critic about the ride quality. Go for the drive, if you can. Observe for yourself. Be careful, though, with the new realms of power your engine delivers. Do not engage in any high speed runs until you have covered a number of other things. It may be worthwhile for you to have one of those multi-point safety inspections before you do anything else.

I might as well just tell you from now: YOUR MONEY SPENDING DAYS on this project are not over. Any sloppiness would need to be corrected, not to mention changing routine parts and minor upgrades to compliment the power.

thanks Terran, as always for your advice. the car in my opinion, is not drivable, if i had known this, i would not have had them bring it home. the car actually overheated on the way down, radiator needs to be changed with the new one. i compiled a list that i will take up with the guy.

xtech · Postby **xtech** » May 28th, 2008, 10:06 am

it over heat

...........i see men online upgrade d turbo an run civic radiators cause d turbo to big.
Civic radiators is way smaller than yuh OEM an no probs an if nobody really drive it why it doing dat. Oh since u r auto did u invest in a tranny cooler i running one since i got d stock Laser manual radiator engine temp always low.

Anybody have a air/fuel gauge installed? Anyone ever saw rich readings. I think i need a new Oxygen sensor some days i see very lean an others it stays on Stioch exact center of it never more.

I have a question, can the starlet cluster ( instrument panel) work in my tercel ? my old one cannot work with this engine.

can ne one confirm this?

xtech · Postby **xtech** » May 28th, 2008, 12:42 pm

I guess it does. Seems like the Celica GTS 88 also works.
But how come it does not work? I know you missing the tach but u could always get it aftermarket.

The gauge cluster that comes in my Laser works fine. Tach/Speedo/Temp/Warning lights

xtech, i have a small tach, but i need to know whether it makes sense to buy the cluster. if it doesnt fit, i will have to find another that works...

ep82 will work...in terms of connectivity and it will bolt up...but the top is more rounded so it will not fit flush like the stock tercel one.

it however comes with a tach and a boost guage

the ep91 luster looks like a closer fit

reddo_tuner · Postby **reddo_tuner** » May 28th, 2008, 2:12 pm

question is: which one does droppa have? ep91 or 82, i think 82...

droppa · Postby **droppa** » May 28th, 2008, 2:25 pm

for this boost guage to work, what sensor is needed, and where is it located.... :?:

xtech · Postby **xtech** » May 28th, 2008, 2:37 pm

ent dat is controled by a vaccum line not electric sensor

droppa · Postby **droppa** » May 28th, 2008, 2:58 pm

vaccum line to sensor that converts to elect signal :roll:

xtech · Postby **xtech** » May 28th, 2008, 3:16 pm

well boy keep rolling yuh eyes....... i got a Phantom boost guage an i run vaccum line straight to d intake mani.......

if u was talking bout the boost gauge in d starlet cluster me nah know nutting bout dat one if u say it is electric it could take readings from ecu boost signal input wire.
