Yip its insert style .
I have heard of people upgrading theres to get more airflow am i way wrong here.
Car goes good just want to be able to leave it boosting around 13-14 it will only hit standard 12.
Also the maf i have now is the same as my old bh5 legacy??
sound right?
Cheers
Hey all
Wondering if i can run a purple maf in my 99 gf8.
Im running a 4 pin blue label i think at the moment somebody told me i can put purple in to get more hall arse out of it any ideas any1 not keen to blow my engine for a couple extra psi.
Note engine is fully stock has yellow injectors td04 turbo so pretty much standard as they come any help would be great
Got ya that makes sense i changed the knock myself and as u can tell im a noob when it comes to engines should i hit up a mechanic to quickly look at knock sensor??just want it healthy as its my daily and i need it to last and lets be fair putting the foot down with boost kicking in is addictive i will try the solinoid tomorrow after work and see how we go thanks marky appreciate it
Ang ot korra haha
I just changed my blow off valve car went how it should held 14 psi went got a feed jumped back in the car now it wont go past 7 boost solinoid u reakon it went better when it had a boost leak
Gasgets leaking for sure soapy water test proved it but would it fuk with the boost that much it went good this morning bar boost not holding thort that was def the leak but now its only hitting 7
Hey all more issues with the mighty gf8
So i changed my knock sensor the other day was a mish but done it reset ecu and car ran better than it had but was still having boost issues with it hitting 14 then dripping to say 8-10
Done a soapy water boost leak test and found out my blow off valve was leaking only slighty so im hunting for one now however finished wirk today jumped in warmed it up as i always do and it is running like a bag of **** feels real jurky and wont hit anything iver 7psi could a boost leak do that much damage to boost levels or should i start looking at the boost solinoid any belp would be great
cheers hijacka will keep u updated will defs get knock sensor done anyways as its my daily so need it to perform but i cleaned the maf sensor last night and still have cel code but will keep u updated
I may have just found the reason marky just checked the codes and knock sensor code come up so ill be getting that done hopefully next week but no other codes
will be getting a full sevice in the next couple weeks hopefully aswell
hijacka na mate standard engine no poddy or anything but will clean the maf sensor tonite and see how it goes
Cheers everyone
