    1992 Galant Vr4 #580/1000

    If you are still having problems with this car let me know. I've tried to keep up on my old car as it has passed a few owners the past handful of years. I might be able to help you sort out things.

    Back on after more than a decade,,

    Welcome back! That 1g was pretty cherry, but that Galant has lots of potential!

    Ever get the issues figured out? Looks like the car has been rigged together horribly since I owned it.

    HotBits Suspension

    I just want to necro an old thread to elaborate that the hotbits dt2 is/was best suspension setup I've had ever. I definitely think beeffajita either had a f'ed up shock damping build or wasn't preloading the lighter springs correctly. Hitting bump stops is very unpleasant from a ride quality...

    QM twin disc questions

    You sold the QM to me. I ended up putting "street" friction disks with Tim Zimmer's Gear Drive setup. It worked great. You also sent me the accumulator and I didn't want/need it. I ended up selling it for a case of top shelf beer haha.

    Have You Left The Game and Come Back??

    Ughh.. So I've just been kind of lurking around. I haven't been on this site much since I sold 580 a couple years ago. I regret getting rid of her pretty much every day. It seems like every time I hangout with any of my car friends they ask about the ole girl. It is even worse that every year...

    how do i tune this out?

    What turbo are you running? I see your running 9:1 CR based off your modifications list in your profile. I would definitely run it richer at about 11:1 as said farther up. You'll get more power from boost and timing than leaning the mixture. When I was running pump with a 59mm turbo I couldn't...

    Fuel set-up for ~600whp

    I don't have any of my fuel pump research data in front of me, but I believe your injectors would be first limiting factor running at a stock base fuel pressure. Since your not going to be able to run ridiculous boost pressures you can raise your base fuel pressure and stretch your injectors...

    2.3 stroker

    Have almost 70k on my 2.3 stroker. There's more wear in the cylinder walls then a 2.0, but I wouldn't say its unacceptable. I'm only basing the comparison to other cars I've seen at my friends shop.As for crank I used a g4cs crank.

    Upgraded Camshaft and Base Timing

    Do you have adjustable camshaft gears. Assuming everything else that has been said above hasn't helped; I've had good luck removing overlap to increase idle quality and even help on top end performance.

    are you guys doubling up the oil return line gasket from turbo to line?

    I see your from Kalamazoo!I put the white ring face on the turbo side, but it shouldn't matter. I never doubled up any of the gaskets on my cars.
