Yeah my gas mileage is absolutely horrible, all of the deposits so to speak can be cleaned out at some point without pulling the engine correct. I am talking about some method I heard of cleaning all of the carbon out of the engine, I forgot the product.

Thanks for that input, makes a lot of sense, well then I guess the J&S Safeguard isn't really doing anything because it doesn't have to retard anything because there is no knock. I pulled the three codes and this is what I got. P0420 P0172 P0107 Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold Fuel tr...

What doesn't make sense is I have a J&S Safeguard especially for knocking and timing. Maybe it's not doing it's job or I need to tune it better. Who knows. Is it bad to drive the car with misfires? If so I need to stop driving my car period, I don't want to damage anything. Thanks, any more inpu...

that's the problem I'm running the stock RS ecu with a J&S Safeguard for timing. I know I should be running stand alone but I want to definately identify the problem before I do anything else to it. The compression is around 7:5:1, and yeah I understand it will be powerless but hey compromises I...

A side note, I have been thinking of stripping the turbo off the car. Can this ej22t shortblock with SOHC heads setup run without a turbo or will I just have more problems? Thanks

Idle

Hey, I hope this is the right forum and since you guys are EJ22 experts I figure I give it a shot. I have a ej22t swap with RS SOHC heads, I'm running a Ludespeed Stage 1 Kit on the car for now with a J&S Safeguard. My idle is strange and the CEL light is on. Granted I know I should pull it but ...

Shortblock Oil Squirters

I am intrigue by the oil squirters on the ej22t block but I had some questions, if I decide to do a shortblock ej22t swap into a RS will the squirters work? If not, what do I need to get them working? Will I have to swap in the ej22t longblock with the heads? Any answers would be appreciated. Thanks
