heres some pics of my 3rd DSM(built 7 bolt):

knochgoon24 · 01-20-2011, 10:24 PM

I tuned my car with an SAFC2 when my car was completely stock. It picked up some pep on the top end once I leaned it out. It was running 10.0:1 AFR for most of WOT with the ecu controlling it. I leaned it out to 11.3 and that helped. It helped my gas mileage too.

I love me some built 7 bolts.

boostedsm · 01-20-2011, 10:43 PM

^^me too! this one had the balance shafts eliminated, wiseco 9:1, eagle rods, acl bearings,....the whole nine :] and whats funny is that i'm 19 and i've been driving for 3 years now. i've never had a 6 bolt. I've had 6 cars and 5 of them were all 2g's with 7 bolts. not one has even showed a sign of walking.....

knochgoon24 · 01-21-2011, 12:38 AM

What's up with the turbo to manifold bolts?

kthackst · 01-21-2011, 12:44 AM

Lol never say never I had one 7bolt and it walked. But I still love the 7 bolt.

from 2 minutes ago:

Got stuck in the snow storm on the way home from getting it late last night... Didn't get home until 3am. What a long drive in a blizzard, Especially being I had to drive far out of state for the car!

knochgoon24 · 01-21-2011, 01:41 PM

Very clean. That's nice.

Stuck in the snow, in and Evo?!? I'm guessing it doesn't have winter tires on it.

**Got Insulin?** · 01-21-2011, 01:43 PM

I blew up the ****ing Colt last night on it's maiden voyage. Timing belt jumped, awesome.

EklipzGSXkid · 01-21-2011, 01:54 PM

knochgoon: It wasent the car that was stuck! My jeep (had a friend drive it back), Could not go over 30mph the entire way, In the snow. The tires are very bad, Even in 4wd. Sadly, I have brand new real good tires for it sitting here at my house, That need to get put on today. Unfortunatly, I didn't get them on yesterday because I wanted to go get the car and get it done and over with!

Taylor: Did it have a swap in it? It jumped timing on the first drive? Could it have been a faulty hydraulic tensioner? If you need any help with the car, Just let me know. I know your a bit of ways away, But I always have tons for these cars, So I'd be able to help you out. Did the valves bend?

**Got Insulin?** · 01-21-2011, 03:36 PM

Rob, I just stuck it back in the garage after we got it home. I'll be picking through it this weekend to see what went wrong, but a faulty tensioner is my guess. Yep, it was 6bolted. Thanks for the offer!

That thing is beautiful! Not a fan of those goofy turbo badges. That thing is clean! I wish mine was that clean.

Thanks man. Yea, I've heard that about the "goofy" badge before, but I leave it on anyways because I think it suits the car well and I like it.

Which page did you post your car on?
