  1. Anyone have any first hand experience with Iridium spark plugs on the 2.6?
  2. Unfortunately its a bit more complicated then that, The stock TB is made to give a good and even flow of air and mix the fuel from the injectors, Oversizing the TB is good but your not really able to get that much larger. And using a new tb makes it hard to get the injector mixer on the tb and make the air flow as it should. I have been working on doing this but will have to wait till weather improves before I can finish the project. But really a big big problem with the stock setup is the ECU is quite poor. MPI is really the way to go.
  3. Another interesting thing to think about, The stock intake has almost twice the flow of the stock Throttle body. (the TB size is about the same size as one of the 2 runners that all the air go thought)
  4. This is more a proof of concept ten a finished product, If this works well I definetly may take you up on that offer! If it doesnt work well Ill just put a stock setup on it, Its just a montero dont really need all that much power even a stock turbo 2.6 makes like 30hp and 60tq more then the stock 3.0 v6 it had in it. I actualy have a MPI magna intake I am not using, but I want to see how this idea works out. My idea is 4 inj about = to primary conquest tbi injector, wired in a way to give about the same resistance to the stock ecu, and could be alot of ways to try like use a 550cc and the 4 injectors in the intake for the secondary. My idea tho is to improve the low end response and power without hurting (actualy helping) the top end. If these 4 injectors dont match the one primary injector I can add a smaller sized injector i the Primary stock injector Location, or If the 4 in the runners works well for the primary I could run 2 550cc in the stock location and use them both for the secondary (idea is to reduce fuel drops). If this works great I will mod another intake like this but with Welding an no JB weld and send it off to have it done right. But I belive jb weld is acquitted to see if the idea will work.(I Will have fire extinguisher in the vehicle!).
  5. No I didn't pay anything for this. The injectors will have steel brackets that go over the injector fuel inlet and extend with long bolts to hold to to the intake. JB weld is used to seal the gap the TB bolts to 2 of the stock TB bolts and I will probably drill and tap the other 2 bolts but haven't got that far yet. The intake will be used on a montero where the low rpm power is apriciated. But the intake has the egr area opened up to give about twice the plenum area under the TB, plus a TB that is about 80%larger than stock. The 2 runners are pretty much double the size of the stock TB. So basically should increase flow about 70 to 50% over the stock intake.
  6. Plan is tap hose barbs into the fuel rail I have and rubber hoses going to the injectors.
  7. Here are a few pics of some stuff I am working on. 62mm TB 4 injectors equaling about 500cc http://i1355.photobucket.com/albums/q714/Luke_Tainter/IMG_20140129_180640_zpspvqjmvgh.jpg http://i1355.photobucket.com/albums/q714/Luke_Tainter/IMG_20140129_180650_zpsjfenqpeo.jpg http://i1355.photobucket.com/albums/q714/Luke_Tainter/IMG_20140129_180715_zpsanp4xzuh.jpg
  8. Apart from the feel of closing the Gull wing around you when you close the door mostly the Interior on the Starion is more cool, Dash looks better, insterments look cooler, fan and heater contorls look alot cooler, the seats are not very adjustable but have a bigger version of the 87 style seats, The leg room is one big advantage over the Starion with the seats all the way back I can almost not push the clutch in (im about 6ft) The steering wheel is feels like its made from the same factory as the starion one lol kinda 87 style shape with 88-89 finishing wraped leather. The side windows are tearible small and you dont have much visibility in the back or side. In other words the starion other then the door is more cool interior wise!
  9. A while back I got some specs on the cam from the magna and it was basicly same specs as the stock slip rocker (when using the rollers) Maybe slightly better then stock because or rollers but no gain in duration or lift
  10. I know alot of people in japan that drift will have a switch to turn all their fans on full when they are drifting partially because when the car is sideways you dont get a good air flow into the front air inlet.
  11. Wow great Idea Attach a Lawn Mower Blade to the bottom and call it the lawn mower!
  12. I heard crayon dynos read 10hp more then sharpie dynos.
  13. The local drag way has a section just for the retired motorbike riders to watch... Handicapped section
