Re: Fluidampr - jetspeedz's Personal Impressions - Review & How-to-Install write-up

I don't believe there is anything out there which is an alternative, the tool is well worth it to make sure the installation is done properly to avoid any kind of damage to the crank or pulley. I...

Re: Fluidampr - jetspeedz's Personal Impressions - Review & How-to-Install write-up

Glad it has worked out for you as well.

Hard to imagine anyone having problems, it's maintenance free unlike ATI.

Re: Fluidampr - jetspeedz's Personal Impressions - Review & How-to-Install write-up

Just wanted to provide a follow up almost a year later of daily driving. The Fluidampr has been flawless, no issues at all. Very happy with this mod and well worth it.

Re: Fluidampr - jetspeedz's Personal Impressions - Review & How-to-Install write-up

Its been a while since I've installed the Fluidampr, just an update, so for so good, no issues what so ever, I don't see myself updating again unless I run into any issues.

Re: Fluidampr - jetspeedz's Personal Impressions - Review & How-to-Install write-up

Couldn't agree more, there are much better options than OEM when modding the motor. I went with Fluidampr for all the reasons i describe in the article, set it and forget it, one less thing to worry...

Re: Engineering Explained - Turbo Blanket Testing & Results

The blanket is a must have in conjunction with other tricks, the wraps themselves fall apart overtime but there is a trick to extend the life.

Re: Fluidampr - jetspeedz's Personal Impressions - Review & How-to-Install write-up

Did you read the entire article?

Here is the fact in terms of ATI maintenance:
“For five and a half-inch dampers, rebuild depends on horsepower, 400 hp–rebuild every five years, 400-600...

Re: Fluidampr - jetspeedz's Personal Impressions - Review & How-to-Install write-up

Good point a lot of bad advice out there.

The take away should be that the OEM damper was designed for an oem setup. As soon as you mod the motor the oem damper is less effective, you need to...

Re: Fluidampr - jetspeedz's Personal Impressions - Review & How-to-Install write-up

Very happy to hear it worked as advertised for you. I couldn't be happier myself. The upside compared to ATI and OEM is you never have to worry about replacing it due to rubber deterioration. Never...

Re: b16a new lmas still ticking!

Funny this came up, i just refreshed my motor including buying new Honda LMA's and it ticks pretty loud at idle to the point I was concerned, but the more I read about people changing their LMA with...

Re: P2W clearance with CP pistons

It is well worth the price tag for your motor. No reputable engine builder who builds motor will run any lightweight pulley. They will either run fluidampr or ati and I gave the reasons why I put...

Re: P2W clearance with CP pistons

Not at all if you consider the benefits. You never do until its too late usually. As long as you have good precision tools for measurements and components fall within spec you should be good. Now if...

Re: P2W clearance with CP pistons

You know the saying, you have to pay to play. Most people don't realize what it costs to build a "reliable" high hp car. Reliability does not come cheap. A lot of factors of course and how you spend...

Re: P2W clearance with CP pistons

I sent them an email, it works very well even with the expansion, i took my motor apart and rebuild it over the past few months and the coating was still present, I'll dig up the pics. You have to...

Re: P2W clearance with CP pistons

To be honest with you I couldn't tell you off my head, i got these years ago, i can look up the receipt but I'm sure the prices have changed since. Your best bet would be to contact your dealer or CP...

Re: P2W clearance with CP pistons

That depends on the type of coating, it ranges in price, the rule of thumb is the higher the price the more protection against detonation for a longer period of time.

Re: B16C6 ring gap issues

send them back and get a new set, simple or take a chance and run these, since the gap is much wider expect more oil burning and white smoke at least from that cylinder.

Re: P2W clearance with CP pistons

I wouldn't worry about it, you will get enough carbon build up on that you wont see it after your first drive. I would however recommend coating the pistons if you have the cash. It goes a long way...
