Re: Turbo Forenza wagon in the works

Re: Turbo Forenza wagon in the works
For running the oil, I tapped a hole in my oil pan with a 1/4 npt thread and added a stainless steel nipple. I also found a large plug right behind the oil pressure sensor which i drilled and also tapped with a 1/4 inch npt thread. This bolt was notoriously difficult to tap because it was so small i...

Re: Turbo Forenza wagon in the works
Ok, thats good to know before I jumped into that. How important is ignition timing? In the matter of speaking that its not perfectly adjusted the way that the ecu would like to have it timed for? Does the ECU drastically vary the timing of ignition by a large portion of crank roatation or is it like...
