    my diy 4.0 ohv turbo build

    yeah i actually had the idea on that i found a universal fpr on ebay. i intend to tap the stock hole for a npt and screw the adjustable fpr onto it for better tuning that way i know atleast i can adjust up the pressure on the stockers or when i put some massive ones in i can tune down the...

    my diy 4.0 ohv turbo build

    so basically anything with equal to or higher impedance then the explorer will work for injectors correct. cus i have the red tops in now. cusif so i believe the injectors off the s/c buick 3.8s are 15 ohm rating. yeah i can always get em if they are the 3rd gen just have to cut the plugs. what...

    my diy 4.0 ohv turbo build

    didnt you upgrade your injectors if so where did you get them. from what i understand you can use higher impedence injectors then stock but not lower. it looks like the injectors off the gm 3.8 supercharged and the injectors off the 3.0 ford turbo aparently have no clue what that came in will...

    my diy 4.0 ohv turbo build

    hg i now know the trouble it is to fix ahead gasket on the 4.0. it has to be the most retarded head gasket i've ever done. i had the typical problem. my lower intake gasket leaked. apparently whoever did them before me never re-torqued them. so i figured id just do the entire head gasket setup...

    my diy 4.0 ohv turbo build

    ahhh came across a first gen explorer in the jy might have been second gen but it had the ohv 4.0 and luckily i already relocated my battery so i yanked the k&n cold air intake and maf sensor assembly. fixed my idle problem still studders a tad bit under normal driving but screw it. next im...

    my diy 4.0 ohv turbo build

    o i didnt relise u were only running the 21 lbs injectors ive got the red tops in mine what do they run at. also where is the knock sensor on the truck. also i figured after i boost this thing i might just run a boost actuated sensor to disconnect the link and drop it 3 degrees under 1 psi. also...

    my diy 4.0 ohv turbo build

    wow 12 to 1 is alot. so far ive got anything over 5 psi knocks. also im going to switch over to the 4.0 ohc maf sensor i found out y my truck is running rough with the ohv maf sensor in the ohc housing i got looking at the sensors and the wires on the ohv that run between the 4 prongs on the...

    my diy 4.0 ohv turbo build

    yeah i found the diagram for the spout its number 3 pin on the plug i was wondering if maybe i could just put a resistor inline with the wire or maybe a diode or potentiometer that way i can adjust it but also how bad does yours ping at 15 if its not too bad then ill just do the octane adjust...
  19. 1

    my diy 4.0 ohv turbo build

    ok where is the spout connector and octane adjust plug yeah im guessing we run what 22 timing so jumping to 10 would be bad if it was a 4 banger shure. dunno can always try it only thing it would do is rich out like mad. also got a question i did the 3 inch pvc intake and swapped my maf sensor...

    my diy 4.0 ohv turbo build

    what is the timing on the 4.0 cus id like to retard mine if possible when turboing it. yeah i saw the stroker kits but no point in doing that if im going to turbo charge the 4.0 whats the safest amount of boost you can run with no detonation. also im intending to run 3 step colder plugs. also...
