    STUPID CAR!!!! (Cuts off)

    Carb cleaner should work fine. Just make sure it's dry before you reattach it. Hope that's obvious. ;) I bought a new one for ~$50 at NAPA. Don't know about the Cobra though. Not sure about that bend either. You could try taking it back to stock and see if that fixes things. May cause more...

    STUPID CAR!!!! (Cuts off)

    Can't hurt to clean or replace the IAC. Also, check all your intake hoses, etc. Grease monkies at Jiffy Lube unplugged one of mine last time I was there and that caused my GT to stall. Good luck!

    Anyone else have an idleing problem?

    Could be the fuel filter, depending on mileage, but more likely is the IAC valve. Clean it or replace it. Took care of my idling troubles.

    sceptical about 4.10

    Either, or. They're both better than stock.

    Catted X-pipes

    I passed emissions with the Magnaflow Catted-X, but I don't believe they'll fit up with LT's. :(

    Catted X and Packs from the Magnapeops.

    ?'s 4 people in states that require emissions

    Here in UT it's every other year. Still, I didn't want to take the chance or have the hassel of changing out the X. Hence, catted. And I passed, so I'm legal for another two years! :banana:

    1st Performance Mod Completed! (Magnaflow X-Pipe & Cat-Back...) "Wow"

    I think Scotty still has some clips of his in his signature... :shrug: They were the reason I went with the Catted-X and Packs. Most excellent. Good job on the mom and pop shop, too. Places around here in UT wouldn't touch a working cat. :nonono:

    4.10's without dragracials?

    Dragracials... that like being prejudiced against crossdressers? :chair: No traction problems here. Practice is key.

    Fuel Filter change

    In your trunk, left side behind the lining or whatever it's called, there's a small hole. You should be able to unplug the wire there that will relieve the pressure. Once it's unplugged, they recommend trying to start the engine. It won't start, and that's good. Then use that tool. Have lots of...

    How much do dealers try to rip you off? This much....

    It's all from a little book. This is the job, this is the amount of time required, these are the necessary parts, plus cost of bending unsuspecting customer over... carry the two... Heh... dealer math.

    Best wax for black paint?

    Correct. Zaino is a polish, not a wax. But it's real purty. :nice:

    hankook ventus...

    I have them. They're fine for my application, ie, no track time. They're not the best in the snow, but not the worst either.

    ABS light

    I think all told, it was around $300. :shock: About $85 of that was the initial diagnostic. It could have been much worse in my case since they had trouble locating the problem of the ECU connection. They didn't charge me for a lot of the time they put in. Best to pay for the diagnostic to...

    ABS light

    When I had an ABS light I didn't pull any codes either. I then took it to an ABS/Brake specialist shop and they told me an ABS code wouldn't show on a normal reader. :shrug: Long story short, I had a bad sensor and bad connections into the ECU. They replaced the bad sensor and cleaned up the...
