I need to know the torque specs for the exhaust manifold and the valve cover...if someone could share those, that would be a great help!

Thanks!

Hi Tap are you talking about the exahust manifold studs into the head?

The valve cover is supposed to be about 8 ft lbs for the nuts...just need to clarify if you're talking nuts or the studs.

The studs are all still intact with the head, I just took the nuts off. So I was wondering what to torque the nuts at when putting my exhaust mani back on.

First thing to check, Is your intercooler pipes, more then likely you have a boost leak somewhere. Take a little time and google Build boost leak tester. By making sure you have no boost leaks you will see so much more power out of your car. Also if that doesnt work, How new are spark plugs? what are they gapped at? what boost are you running?

I'm running 10psi and I'm not sure what the sparkplugs are gapped at but the sputtering and spitting didn't happen today when I floored it. So could it still be a boost leak? Or somethin else?

like he said, first things first. assuming all things are correct, there are some values you should always know, right off the top of your head. timing is 15* btdc, tps set to .35-.65 and spark plugs gapped to .028. you have to have these at a minimum.

timing possibly creating the spitting and sputtering. if its a specific turbo noise then you probably broke something. are you smoking when you do this? if so what color smoke?

I'm pretty sure 185ish is a good reading for an 8.5:1 motor, but if you're lower dont really worry about it, as long as the numbers are consistent and above 125.

But if the motor is 9:1 then the numbers should be a little higher, but since not all compression testers are exactly identical, some might read a tad different, so just make sure they are consistent.

But i could be wrong, somebody correct me if i am.

s13 sr20 det no power to car UNLESS its running.. help me out please?

im running an sr20 swap on my 89. i just bough it from a guy, and ive never heard of this problem happening. i was driving and the turbo timer got turned on, right while i pulled next to a cop. i didnt reach over to turn it off, and when it hit 0, all the power was cut from the car. at first i figured it was the turbo timer kill switch, because my e brake was down, and while i wasnt sure what happened i was being pulled over by the cop so i was trying everything i could to get power back. i thought when i did this i drained the power from the battery and all i needed to do was jump it, let the alternator charge up the battery and id be fine. turns out i was wrong, the battery is pushing 12.97 volts, and i can bump start the car easily and while its running, everything in the car has power and it tuns great, no problems at all. but the second the engine turns off, it has absolutely no power, not even enough to lock the car with my alarm system. if u try to start it, it doesnt make a single noise, and if i try to jump it it still doesnt make a noise, its just dead. does anyone have any idea what could be wring, and if so how to fix it? i feel like its something stupid and easy to fix, i just dont know where to start.

Open up the ECU and you can tell if its been chipped or not. easiest way to tell
