    Intake Elbow - Found the restriction?

    With all of the talk about modifying or change the upper intake elbow on the 2V, I become very curious as to what the big deal was about. I took the elbow off of my car today to give it a thorough inspection to see if I could see any problems. Well, I noticed right away that there was a...

    Window Switch RPM vs. Shift RPM???

    Everything you wanted to know about Exhaust

    Sorry for another long explanation ;), but I think most people get restrictive backpressure confused with header tuning and exhaust velocity. I thought I would add my $0.02 again. Backpressure caused by restriction decrease power because the engine has problem forcing the exhaust gases out...

    How does a chip maintain a different A/F than the stock stoichiometric ratio of 14.7?

    The title basically says it all. From what I know the oxygen sensors are only good at measuring the a/f as either Lean or Rich. For a stock car the PCM tries to alternate evenly between these two so that on average the a/f is at the stoichiometric ratio of 14.7. That is if the car is rich it...

    Is there any way to adjust fuel pressure on 99+ (returnless) cars?

    Just curious if there is any way to adjust the fuel pressure on the returnless style cars without having to buy a chip/programmer? I know that with the fox bodies and the early SN95's with the retrun style fuel system one of the first mods was an adjsutable fuel pressure regulator. From what I...

    I have 2000 GT and I am serious considering buying a set of HPM lower control arms. I am curious to know if any one is experience with either thier megabite or megabite Jr. They say on their site (which is terrible by the way) that the Jr's are best for street/strip cars. The Jr's have poly...
