ebc's can be flakey in wet/winter weather conditions...

but I dont really know... maybe.. why not use it if it works?

 

bc they dont work as well as an mbc. they dont stick they dont cause crazy boost spikes or surging like a mbc does. all around a ebc is the way to go when dealing with that kind of power

 

i dunno, i trust ams when it comes to evos

 

they've used both and have proven that it makes little to no difference.

again, if you don't know about them, read up on them.

here's a fun post about them (not too informative but still.. go to evolutionm.net for better stuff) from a while ago: https://www.audiforums.com/m_168230/tm.htm

 

Just got off the phone with Arif, the duct tape fell off the IC, leaving a gapping hole i guess. Hes working on a "plug" for it and also trying to eliminate some exhaust rattle... He hasnt started it back up yet, but would the hole in the IC make him run rich if it wasnt plugged?

 

hmm i dont know if that would be causing the rich condition but definately the low power situation!!!

is it rich under idle or load?

 

in laymen's terms, the readings would be all off..

the maf sees a certain amount of air flow and tells the computer to send a certain amount of fuel through.. but, obviously, since the reading is too much compared to reality.. a rich condition is the result.

 

yes. your maf measures air and i it escapes then its not there but the car think it is so u run rich

 

Well ****, if hes running anything like Arif was refering to when we were getting on 315N the other day now that its plugged.. All I have to say is HOLY ****!! That thing pulled soooo hard, but it was only for a couple secs... I know that we experienced 250hp+ at that time. I was taking a video then but when the turbo spooled up it made me accidently hit the rec. button again and it killed the video. It went like this...
1. Stop light
2. Press record
3. Green light
4. Hits gas
5. I say "Holy Sh.."
6. Camera stops recording.

Too bad...

 

bummer get that hole fixed and see what it can do
