    How hard is it to change out the rotors

    The Wikipedia article was great unfortunately the OBS don't come out that easy I tried to get the hubs out tonight. I never have the right tools for the job. looks like I need a good set of snap ring pliers. What other tools are needed for this job. I saw mentioned a hub socket (can I borrow...

    power window quit

    When it first started acting up it would work intermittenly or would go slow. then one day it just quit. I had passengers so the door was being opened and closed multiple times that evening. I tried replacing the motor. no dice. tried replacing the switch in the rear with the one from the...

    How hard is it to change out the rotors

    Thanks for all the replies. I guess I'll stick with the lts pads and I'll change the rotors and pads out when I get back from the beach. Alan

    How hard is it to change out the rotors

    can I do it without fiddling with the bearings etc. I'm gonna repack or replace them soon but I wanted to get my powerslots on tonight before our trip tommorow. Also I asked for the hawk hps pads and they sent me the lts pads for light truck and suv. Is this right. I thought everyone used...

    surge/flutter on an obs turbo

    anybody have the CFM flow numbers for the stock turbo vs H2E or GTP38R. Still considering the ats wastegated exhaust housing but don't want to waste my time or money. I know you've got to have enough air to burn x amount of fuel, but it's the low end smoke and spool up that I'm trying to...

    surge/flutter on an obs turbo

    Not recently I guess I'll pull the intake off this weekend and check it again, along with looking for exhaust leaks. The last time I checked it the fins looked great and there was no end play that I could tell. Course it's seen 35 plus a few times since then. I don't remember exactly when I...

    surge/flutter on an obs turbo

    It actually does it in all the chip settings from the economy to the new luke extreme. I am sending my chip back to tony to reprogram the shift points. It's shifting way too soon under light throttle and smokes alot(lugs the motor)probably because of the tire size gear combo, under heavy...

    BDP claims another turbo

    luke's post reminded me of the scene in lonesome dove when jake spoon is runnin with a gang and the leader kills the farmers cause he's "feeling bloody"-mad I got no problems with farmers. Besides without the farmers who's gonna make us biodiesel so we can thumb our nose at the middle...

    surge/flutter on an obs turbo

    I don't know how to describe it. It's kinda like when you stick out you tongue and blow to give some one a strawberry but lower pitched like with loose lips. Then the big whoosh when the tranny shifts gears and as the boost builds again the flutter starts. and when I say my gauge was bouncin...

    surge/flutter on an obs turbo

    The thing that gets me is tony was ridin with me so we could figure out what adjustments we wanted to make to my chip and he said he had never heard an obs flutter like that. I figure he's ridden in his share of souped up trucks.:dunno

    surge/flutter on an obs turbo

    it probably starts at 10-15 and just gets worse as it pegs my 35 psi gauge.

    surge/flutter on an obs turbo

    It started with the performance upgrades as the boost numbers rose I started to get alot of flutter in my gauge and an audible fluttering from the engine compartment. Put a pressure snubber in the gauge line so I could get a reading without the gauge bouncing all over the place but I don't know...

    BDP claims another turbo

    BJS I talked to bean today. The ats housing is a 1.0. I think I'm gonna try the ats housing for now(it looks like it will fit my current needs), add my intercooler when I can get pipes and a 6.0 and later I'll go with something bigger like the h2e or garrett. Sorry not trying to hijack the...

    BDP claims another turbo

    that's what I heard from. My main concern right now is not toasting my stock turbo like your wife did and trying to get quicker spool up for less smoke during normal driving. Maybe once I get an IC in and do a couple other things I'll be able to get enough in the piggy bank for a bigger hair...
