well i took it out for a spin and about the highest i got to was around 12 or 13 but it usually stayed around 10. i was just wondering if these were good readings.

Pretty much have no idea what you mean by good readings?

I guess he means is that fine for stock. Yes it is.



Hello Mr. 12's . How are you today ?

If thats what you mean, yeah, fine for stock. I was totally lost on the good readings part. When the engine is off by the way, you are sitting either dead on or right around 0 depending on barometric pressure right?

Actually if he's at idle he should be reading a negative vacuum of 500-700mmHG (I think that's .5 bar, but its prob .05-.07) SOrry, don't use PSI very much, as my guages are metric...

he was talking about the engine being off, not idleing.
your readings seem fine. Mine sometimes hits 13 but usually 9-10.
Wait, is this a 1G or 2G. 1G should be around 9-10 and 2G should hit around 14 and fall slowly to 11-12.

How did the install go, by the way? Did those weird fittings work alright?

Vandy

yeah the install went great and was easier than i thought it was going to be. but i've had my clutch and transmission in for a while and i've launced it a couple tims and i can spin the tires? how the hell am i spinning the tires with all wheel drive. i dont' have any other mods than the clutch and trans.

yeah don't do that, wheel hop is realy bad for FWD and really really expensive for awd...you just got that tranny rebuilt, try to make it last a little man! Have fun, and get an air filter/BOV
