    Notch seems slow...diagnosis anyone?

    i had a similar problem. my car seemed like it was falling down after 4000rpm. this did not seem to be fuel or spark related. it just seemed slow. ANYWAYS, after a long battle of what-the-hell-is-goin-on i figured out that it was the cam. i swaped it to an E303 and gained 45hp (iron gt40...

    VORTECH S TRIM

    good idea to cap that stuff off. i learned the hard way!:rolleyes: i have a breather on the pass. side and the pvc vented to the atmosphere, i THINK that is enough and seems to work well, although a bit messy. it would be ideal to do both driver and pass. sides. make sure you tune it...

    tweecer tunning

    the tweecer was a very difficult tool for me to learn how to use. if i were you i would spend time just looking at the software and familarize yourself with it. i would strongly recomend getting binary editor and eec analyzer, google it. each BE and EA are bought seperatly. its and extra...

    Why are kids so F'n dumb??!!!!

    i feel your frustration being a former srt4 owner. it was a fun car to drive but i had some repeat problems with the car so i sold it. i could not go anywhere with out someone wanting to race. god forbid that i see a person driving the same srt because they would go nuts and not quit egging...

    Octane and Compression Ratio...SCHOOL ME

    you should not have any problems pushing 10lb boost with that combo. your cr is getting up there but with a good tune that the tweecer can get you, you should be ok. i guess that im running about 9.5 to 1 cr and i have plans on going to 8lb and im not expecting any problems with 91 octane...

    vortech guys-- maintenance

    i was just curious to know how many of you guys replace/clean and inspect your oil screen going into your sc head unit. it says every 3000 mile but i have had such a difficult time getting that weak brass fitting to seal properly that i want to leave it be. i have actually over tightened it...

    Blower opinions?

    i have a v1 sc too and i love the way it operates but hated the install. it took me 2 weekends to get the oil fittings to stop leaking.:notnice::notnice: taping the oil pan was very nerve racking too:eek: if i could do it over i would save for a procarger and stick with that. there is...

    Air/Fuel and Vaccum advise

    i think i have a similar set up at you and my car is happy at about 800 rpm 18*timing (spout IN) and my vacuum is at 13inHG give or take a bit.... my afr gauge bounces a bit from 14 to 15.2 but idle is very consistent

    Need Suggestions Please?

    thats quite a set up to not have a quality dyno tune. i thing the safest thing would be to get a tweecer or a dyno tune. you cant really do too much to tune a car like that besides twist the dizzy and increase or decrease fuel pressure.... both of which are done globally. with boost like...

    PROBLEMS WITH AFTERMARKET COMPUTERS NEED HELP!!!!!

    josh, i dont know much about the pms or have ever heard of switching to a msd 7 series. my personal suggestion is since you building a street car that has 160lbs injectors i think you gonna need some SERIOUS tuning, imo you would be better off with the tweecer rt. you can do anything with...

    Going with a Supercharger, Have Some Questions...

    i love reading posts like the original posters.... everyone bashes the E cam but his set up made more HP than if he were to have put the TFS1 cam in! anyways, im in the SAME boat. i was thinking the base vortech sc with a 10lbs pully. with that pully i was hoping for about 6-8 lbs with my...
