What type of waster gate does a stock mx6 gt have?

yea, the 'jap' version of our motor is the exact same. i think it even has the EGR stuff, which obviousely, an actual jap motor wouldnt have. they is nothing different at all.
so basically you paid 1400, for a used motor. you could have rebuilt your original, and upgraded quite a bit of it for that much.

Don't get it twisted dude I'm not trying to say I got some spectacular special engine or sum im saying thats where it has come from.

So 1400 INSTALLED at 60 thoughsand kms, ur trying to tell me thats not a good deal??
Mazda wants 1500.00 in labour alone to do a head gasket never mind parts and machine work... which was the problem with my last motor. My guy would have done that for 8 0r 900 he said so why not pay the extra 500.00 to get a whole new block with very low km's on it?

Anyway You can't steer me off knowing I got a great deal on the swap. cleanest f2t ive seen and for the price, 1400 and I don't have to do the work.
HELL YA I JUMPED ON THAT!
And now the car has never ran faster or more smooth in all the kms I've put on the other 2 motors its had. Thing Idles perfect where my last two motors would have a murmur and slight hickups of backfires in them. No noticable lube seal leaks anywhere or rust for that matter. Looks like new the [shizzle] shines
Cleanest one ive seen hands down.

Anyhow I came on here to get some help on a hks evc bc hook up not to have dude try and chop my tree, so Peace Out.

Thanks

I love everyone thinking that all jap motors that come here have under 80,000kms!! BS!!!
(sorry, i'm not saying yours isn't a low km's engine.)
I was just generalizing.

And $800 isn't that bad, but its not a great deal.
And theres no way you can have an engine builder rebuild a F2T in Canada for under $1500. If it was i'd be very leary......

And, $600 for the labour isn't that bad either.
Low km's or not though, you always face the fact that somthing might happen. KM's don't kill an engine, lack of fluid changes kill engines!

Good luck with this one, as I know what you've been through.

and I know its too late, but I would have contacted these guys for a reman engine......

K im at the point now that I feel like im having to prove that my motor came from japan, WHO CARES??? The valve cover says ford on it as stated above, all the wires have jap writing and some parts have jap writing on them aswell. To me thats enough proof to lean towards it being a jap motor. plus the most important thing is the guy who lined it up for me, which I have known for many a years I Trust very much.
And beside all the thing runs Great so I don't give a F*%k where it came from.

Anyone know how to hook up a hks evc 3 boost controller to a stock f2t turbo setup?
I currently have a manual boost controller with two hoses hooked up to the compressor side of the turbo and the turbo sylanoide.
Does the hks evc 3 need to be hooked up to those aswell? cause if so I will just use the existing vac lines and save some time. I'm fairly certain that they do but wish to have conformation so that i don't bugger anything up with the boost unit or the motor.
These are the directions.HKS USA EVC III Instructions

If anyone out there has used a hks evc controller could give me some tips for proper installation i would greatly appreciate it.:angel:

DREW.

No offense, but if you dont even know the difference between an internal and external wastegate, I dont think you should be doing any work on it yourself (Like wiring).


Bring it back to the shop, and have them install it.










And yes, $800 for a motor is a ripoff. I can build one for half of that, or buy one for half of that also.

I did the last complete motor swap myself in a driveway with a cherry picker and some basic tools, and if it wasn't for it being a [shizzle] motor to begin with it would still be in there. Hence the reason why I had someone else install the new one.
I pulled apart the tranny to the shift gate and lock tightened it myself thanks to motherless bastard thread on this site, which has been and is still shifting hard and tight.
I've pretty much changed every part in this car that can be taken off of the body, BY MYSELF..
I've helped build some pretty serious muscle aswell my critic friend.
Here bud YouTube - drews camaro burnout
a [shizzle]ty cellphone video link to my 81 camaro on youtube which I built over 5 years mostly by myself. Original T-top z28 with this list of mods:

enough to spin those 275 r 35 20 inch mounted foose nitrous rims surely.

Oh and here too a 3 month complete resto from my father and I built which we have managed to get sponsores from Hurst, custom audio, gal tracs, canadian classics magazine amongst many others and have driven on 5 hotrod power tours.71 Nova SS- Pete's Nova pictures from cars photos on webshots

Next time dont be so quick to judge dude i've been around the block with my vehicles just didn't know the diff between waste gates is all and now I do.
I'm still in my first year of turbos and have not done a custom turbo swap yet nor have I installed a after market bov for that matter up to this point in my journey.
Oh but I guess I will be getting a chance to this winter when I install both on my 2jz motor swap into my 89mk3 supra won't I.:lol:

I don't pay for [shizzle] I can do myself in a decent amount of time with space I have available. Not hard to connect a positive ignition wire a ground and attact harnesse wires through the firewall in my books either.

So basically unless u have some usefull input for me on whether my thoughts on installing this evc controller are correct or not, save your criticism for yourself and some other time.:rocket:

Thanks!
