Team3S: Active Spoiler ECU
Just got the car back from the local
Mitsubishi dealer. The verdict is that
The Active Spoiler is not
functioning due to either
1. two wires that run to it have breaks in them?
(still to be checked)
2. The ECU is damaged.
The green light shows on
the switch when the switch is off and ignition on,
it goes out after the
ignition is off, and they say that they have checked
everything motors, micro
switches etc. Any ideas as to what the two wires
are they are talking
about?
How much should an ECU cost for a 1995 Twin Turbo ? Anyone
have a spare
working one they would ship to UK? Cost?
I showed them
the archive pages on the web and some of the members Web sites
and it blew
them away. Also had a sneak peek at the new Evo 7 nice very nice
going for a
test drive tomorrow? It's supposed to stick to the tarmac like
you know
what.

Team3S: Cheap Washer bottle float switch
You can make a cheap and
reliable low water warning switch using a ground trigged relay. Hewitt
engine shutdown systems use a system similar to this to shut down engine when
radiator water level gets low.
Install 2 ground studs in the
bottom of the wiper bottle. This is nothing more that a rubber grommet
with a bolt through it, when the bolt is tightened the grommet expands and seals
the hole. The bolt head will be 1/2-1" from the bottom of the reservior so it
will dectect when water level gets this low.
Connect one ground stud to
a body ground.
Connect the other ground stud to a ground triggered
relay. This type of relay is has one terminal that is hot when it detects
a ground signal and another terminal that is hot when there is no ground
signal.
Wire the power supply post of the relay to a
ignition switched power supply.
Wire a light to the terminal that
is hot when there is no ground signal
When the water level gets low it
will slosh and break the ground signal which will light a warning light on the
dash. If you had a boost controler with a overboost button you could wire the
overboost button to the relay so it would only overboost if there was water in
the water injection system. It might need some sort of delay circuit so
that water sloshing during hard cornering would not give a false low
signal.
If people are interested I could make a wiring schematic and get
the part numbers from Radio Shack this weekened

The switch is damn expensive for what it is !
Maybe one can get it out of a
trashed car from a salvage yard for a

Team3S: Homebrew Octane booster info
Hi all,
I was playing around
the other night and came across this link for a
homebrew octane
booster. Just wanted to know if any of you out there had
tried this or
could determine if this would be safe for those of us wanting
to curtail
knock without spending an additional $15-20 per tank to up our
octane
levels. Sounds too easy but definately intriging.

$15 - $20 per tank? Where are
you fueling up? Even at the highest price
differential between unleaded
and premium I've ever seen (~ 22 cents a gallon),
in a 17 gallon tank this is
less than $ 4 a tank. I'm not sure I'd take a
chance on some
home-brewed octane boost in my engine, just to save a couple of
dollars at
the expense of possibly screwing up my engine. Of course I'm not
a
chemist or a chemical engineer so if there is anyone on the list that is
I'll
defer to your experience ....... just sounds like a bit of a risk
considering
the small benefit (especially when you consider that you'd
probably pay 2-3
dollars just to buy the components you'd need to make the
stuff).
Best,
Greg.

I'm sure Troy was talking about race fuel. When I buy the
unleaded 100
octane stuff it is around $4 a gallon, and the leaded 116 octane
stuff is up
to $6 a gallon where I live. Obviously this isn't the kind
of stuff that
you'd want to run on the street (and have stored in your garage
- yikes!),
but for a drag racer on a budget the homebrew mixes might do the
trick for a
lot less money. In some areas you can't even find race fuel
anyways, so
this stuff would be a good fallback position for someone needing
higher
octane fuel.
It does work, but use at your own risk. The
dangers are higher that you'll
blow something up mixing the stuff than
wrecking your car.

If you want to fix it, drill out the upper locating arm, making
the
mounting point a slot. This lets you tilt the top of the wheel back up
and
straight. Adjust the camber to where you want it, then spot weld a
washer
into place to hold the arm. If you don't, the locating arm will be
able to
move around, and your camber will change from day to day.
No,
there is no camber kit for the rear.
Why do you want to change it? It
should handle great that way!

Anybody out there know if
the 1st generation VR4 exhaust will fit on the 2nd
generation VR4? I
have one sitting in my garage, conveniently cut into two
pieces. My '94 has
this aftermarket exhaust with a 12" diameter resonator
and a 4" diameter
tailpipe. It hangs a little low I believe. I'm concerned
about
what happens when I lower the car with the GC suspension. Has
anybody

Subject: Team3S: Re:
Fuel Pump COMPARISON
I have seen this fuelpump flow test, and it is IMO
in question for three reasons,
at least:
1) Supras running
approx. 25psi boost with ONE stock pump can go quartermile at
over 130mph,
which means they are making 600-650hp at the wheels, or about 700
crank
horsepower. They run fuel pressures of about 42-46 psi + boost, so
at
20-25psi are running 62-71 psi fuel pressures! On the Table Arty
presented, the
MkIV Supra pump only flows 16-28 gph at those pressures, which
is enough fuel for
AT MOST 350 crank hp
(HP x .0805 = gal/hour fuel
needed). SO, actual evidence of cars going so fast
with one stock pump
(like my friend Paul's Supra!) means that table has some
critical flaw
SOMEplace, at least on the MkIV Supra pump.
2) Lowell Foo, on the
DSM List, has flowed the Supra pump HIMSELF, all the way
through the stock
DSM fuel system, and found the MkIV Supra pump will flow 63
gal/hour at 65
psi! (and he does NOT sell anything)...
45psi = 90 gal/h (different
source than Lowell)
65psi = 63 gal/h (Lowell)
90psi = 46 gal/h
(Lowell)
Stock VR4 pump flowed through Lowell's DSM setup:
45psi = 47
gal/h
65psi = 26 gal/h
3) I have personally seen the MkIV Supra
pump capable of making pressure over 90
psi (though did not flow test it),
and Lowell Foo indicates it "flowed well past
110psi"...! So, to say it
is "dripping" at 80 psi is totally at odds with
Lowell's personal
findings.
That Chart/Test Just Doesn't Hold Water!
I have seen
this "test" from a couple of sources now, and being skeptical always
wondered
if it was a Weldon partisan; I recall a similar test which showed the
Walbro
to be Ultra Great...I'm just saying there are questions about these
results,
and take ALL with a grain of salt. Fact is, MkIV Supra pumps DO
make
over 600 crank hp each...so TWO of them is safe for up to 1200 crank
HP...plenty!

and I THINK the length of the downpipe

I don't even

is only the dual tailpipe section, so the down pipes would
remain in

Correct me if I'm wrong but I have
heard that excessive camber
will wear your tires more quickly. Am I
correct? I lowered the car cuz I want to get rid of the big gap between
the wheel and fender lip but still want to be able put a lots of miles on my
tires. 18" tires are expensive nowaday :-0
Thanks

So when you
see signs of wear on the inside, swap the tire on the wheel
(flip it around).
Or move them up front.
