No longer for sale. Going to keep her for as long as possible. :)
I'm finding that this is a cheap group, and it takes one to know one since I'm cheap too. What's worse, we all seem to think our cars are worth a lot more than they really are. I might be stuck with...

This is just a feeler to see if this will get any interest. I don't need to sell, so there's no rush.

I bought my car from a good previous owner back in 2008 for just over $2k and it's valued at $6-7k according to NADA. The problem is that nobody in this community would ever spend that much to buy...
With the winter coming up and my new daughter in mind, I've been thinking about whether or not I want to hang on to the Lancer. It has been a great car, still runs mint, still looks mint, and I...
I have an '87 Shelby Lancer, #63. 90k miles, mint condition. If you wiki "Shelby Lancer", that's my car :) Literally.
Shelby Lancer #63 here. I'm interested to read about your progress with the DEX. Mine powers on, but the volume is very low and there's a power draw somewhere that completely drains the battery every...
I'm in it to win it.
Absolutely. My formula for this car would be an 18 psi Cal, bigger injectors (FWD Performance recommends +40's), and of course the MAP sensor is on it's way in the mail. I don't want to go much more...
Oh ok. So it wouldn't work with Cindy's '87 calibrations either, I suppose.
I'm running the stock injectors with the MP Stage II computer at the moment and everything is running great up to around 14 psi or so. I just picked up a 3-bar MAP sensor so I can turn up the boost a...
Interesting, so if I'm just running standard 1 bar pressure (up to ~14.7 psi - intercooler drop), it might be best to run it in the "reverse" way shown in my latest picture to protect the turbo. If I...
So another day, more research on the topic. I found this on my hunt. The "normal" side is how some of these valves came installed from the factory on certain Saab and Audi cars, so it's the reverse...
Thank you all! Bill recommended the valve and if it works for him, it works for me. I just wish I had installed it as designed. Never a dull moment. But if it works on 14 psi and performance doesn't...
I used some black PVC piping for the tubing and Tee'd the valve in using JB Weld designed for bonding plastics. It was a putty and it cured within a couple hours. It is pretty solid and seems to have...
Can it function the other way around? I'm sort of committed since I welded it in wrong.
Edit: I used this page when I decided to weld it in.
Supposedly, this model number (Bosch #0280142110) is rated to 22 psi, so I'm hoping it can hold the 13-15 psi I'm throwing at it.
I recently picked up one of these:

I plan to use it as a BOV off the lower turbo -> intercooler hose. I can't get a clear answer on how...
Great find, thanks for posting that up.
Anybody still have one of these? I'm looking for one.
I have mixed opinions on this. I think it looks OK except for the mismatched blue SRT-4 strip, but that could be a lighting thing. It brings attention to the important parts and at least there's no...
Beautiful! You don't see ANY of these on the streets up here in New England, especially not in winter (thankfully).
The first numbered car I ever saw was probably my own, Shelby Lancer #63. I had plenty of turbo mopars over the years, but none were numbered. I didn't realize the significance until later after I...
You guys have a way a making us "part replacer" types feel better about diving into stuff!
