I know I don't post much but I lurk A LOT. Anyway up for sale I have the engine and automatic trans out of my 1988 conquest. I've acquired a different engine that I'm going to attempt to swap in so this one has to go. Everything I don't need for the swap is up for grabs including the ecu. I'll check back with the thread daily or you can email me at getslidewayz561@aol.com or TEXT 561-704-5156 I will not answer calls. Located in palm beach county florida. I'm not sure what to ask for all this so no reasonable offer refused. May accept trades but I'm looking to raise money for an ls1 for a separate project.

ok, update time. I talked to a mitsu tech at work about not being able to rev past 4500 and he suspected the MAS so i ordered a 3in GM mas and the translator box. BINGO worked like a charm. Now I'm having a problem with the car shutting off when it gets hot, suspecting the fusible links or at least the mess of wires around them. Any thoughts?

Forgot to add that, I replaced the fuel filter in the engine bay with an oem filter. Also replaced cap and rotor when replaced the dizzy (last night). I set the timing according to alldata to 10+ at 2000rpm. I have yet to check the fuel pressure or change the timing chain. I will try to change the injector clips and check the psi tonight. But for now international auto convention here I come .

I'll try to take video a little later and post it up, it's hard to say where the noise is coming from because it's pretty loud but I'll do my best.

Hoping the wealth of knowledge I have seen on this site so far can help me with my problems. I'll start with some information about my car. I own a 1988 automatic Conquest, I'm unsure about how many miles the car has because the odometer has been stuck ever since i bought it. The only modifications done to the car are 2.5" exhaust from the turbo back, a blow off valve, all vacuum lines deleted except for the line running to the vac advance and the line for the fpr. I have also removed everything in the engine bay related to the air conditioning system (condenser, compressor etc...) The only problem I'm having right now is when I go into boost I hear a loud crackling (misfire?) and the car feels very sluggish. When I bought the car the owner gave me a set of injectors that i was told had just been professionally cleaned so installed them right away. I have also replaced the distributor, vacuum advance, plugs and wires trying to chase this problem but I'm stumped. The car was running great for about 3 months after replacing the injectors,plugs and wires but crapped out just recently. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

why are none of the threads here ever complete? I have the same exact problem with my 88 right now, did you ever find the culprit?
