6G75 8G Action Videos

After a week and a half of driving around with my newly-swapped 6G75, I figured it was only right to make a few short videos. None are past 1/2 throttle yet while I wait to get this thing tuned, though it does sound great so far.

Side note: SES light was checked with a scanner at work, and it's nothing major. PO420. I have yet to add the spark plug defouler in the rear O2 sensor.

1st Video - Start up and cold idle.

2nd Video - Slow acceleration and holding 3rd gear.

3rd Video - Half-throttle acceleration starting in 1st gear to the posted 55mph.

4th Video - Driving by with slight acceleration to hear the beautiful exhaust tone of the 75 through RPW Headers, no cat, and 2000 Eclipse GT Muffler.

very nice! I can't believe that was only half-throttle.. LOL
Oh and I also can't believe that's an OEM Eclipse muffler! throw a street series magnaflow, and that thing will sound mean :) [oh but not too loud]

Edit: And you freakin beat me to action videos.. and I've been 6G74 swapped since last July, and 5 speed swapped since December.. I'm ashamed of myself hahha

Thanks for the kind words everybody. Much appreciated. In the next few weeks I'll get this thing out to the track and see how it goes since the break-in period for the clutch is just about finished. When that happens I'll be sure to post the results.

Alright Travis. I'm up for it. Do it big and go MIVEC!

How many miles you have on it untuned so far?

It is great sounding and I dont know how you have the patience to break in the clutch. I dont want to put on my turbo before I finish 5spd and breaking in clutch.

Holy shit, that 2nd video was half throttle?? Thats thing looks like it moves out fairly well. When are you getting it tuned? and through what?

I have between 475-485 miles on it so far. So far everything feels fine. The only OBDII code has been the P0420. I have yet to hook up the Genisys EVO 3.0 to monitor it's running conditions but I'm hoping to get to that this week.

I don't know how I have the patience either. I'm extremely impatient waiting to get things done or make things happen, but for some reason I've been able to be easy on it so far.

Jigz, I'm probably picking up an Emanage Ultimate locally on Friday. Most likely if I get it, I'm hoping to start installing it Saturday after I finish lowering a friend's Forester 2.5XT.

if i remember correctly the p0420 is an oxygen sensor or catalytic converter. cant remember which one exactly.

For half throttle the RPMs are up there pretty quick. The P0420 code could be a mix of things, but given the swap and no tune, it may be fair to say the engine is running extremely lean and given the timing differences between the 72 and 75 ROMs I bet the ECU is "fighting" to make appropriate adjustments.

You really gotta get that thing tuned before driving anymore man, even if it is half throttle. With the stock ROM file on the 72 its typical to see anywhere from 6-7 counts of knock with nothing done, running the 75 on that ROM you could easily be hitting some higher (dangerous) knock counts. Really don't want to see you kill this engine so just looking out for you here...

He's actually running the 74 injectors I believe? I wonder how the AFR is doing right now with no tune. For the 6G74 swap he would be running pig rich, but I wonder how that extra .3L affects it

Even with the 74 injectors, the CR on the 75 (10:1) is higher than the 74 which I believe was 9.5:1 correct?

The heads on this engine is what truly makes it run like a raped ape. From the factory the 75 runs rich in the fuel maps, and timing is anywhere from 4-6* different from the 72 ignition maps.

Are you running the 75 injectors? Tune it with something...anything!

What year car did your 75 come from?

I'm sure the P0420 is only due to removing the cat. It seems fine so far, though I definitely do plan on getting the Emanage Ulti this weekend anyway. Besides, if it blows up in the meantime, it just gives me a good excuse to go MIVEC. There are plenty of MIVEC 75's with under 20k for less than $1000.

2002BlackDragon, the engine came from an '04 Galant.

All I took was on that page. It's still dirty as hell. I need to get motivated and clean it up a bit, and switch a few parts (valve cover, plenum, etc.) but when I do, I will be sure to take much better pictures.

Well if the cat was removed that would explain the code. Just get some spark plug defoulers in there and it will solve that code issue.

I wouldn't even bother with spending the money on a MIVEC, IMHO its a step back from the current possibilities. With the Non-Mivec you could get better results with a set of stage 2 or 3 cams from RPW.
