    What TIRE PRESSURE do *you* run at road course events?

    I run 275/40-18 BFG KDWs all around and start at 32psi at all four corners. Depending on track, track temps, surface condition, etc. I adjust either up or down front or back depending on what the car is doing and what the tires look like. Maybe not nearly as scientific as using a tire...

    Brenspeed Tune, Failed PA Emissions Testing... help!

    Because they probably live in areas that don't do emissions testing via the OBDII port. It used to be relatively easy to get by with O/R pipes in the Houston area but not since they started emissions testing.

    What is it with civic owners???

    LOL, I own both a Mustang and a Civic. Then again, I only consider the Civic a daily beater and it stays stock. It's great having a beat up 96 Civic so I don't have to always put the mileage and wear & tear on the Mustang, but then again, I still don't understand these kids that think their...

    Brenspeed Tune, Failed PA Emissions Testing... help!

    Good to know that Brenspeed did that for you. I'm going through the same issue, driving around with expired tags because I failed inspection. I turned it back to stock but if Brenspeed can provide an emissions friendly version I will contact them to get that. ***Update*** Just called...

    Where to buy Motul RBF600?

    Go to a local motorcycle shop, most of them carry it. That's usually where I get mine.

    Lowered Car rubs entering/exiting parking lots

    I'm lowered on prokits and have 275/40-18s so it sits fairly low but I rarely ever rub, even with a GT500 front lip. Then again I've owned a number of lowered cars, two of which couldn't get over speedbumps without scraping.

    GT500 LCA's on a GT

    It may not be so much that they have bad information, it may be marketing. It's not unheard of.

    Clean exhaust Tips

    I have yellowed tips with stock cats and Pypes MDs. That happens mainly from doing HPDEs I think in my case. One of these days I'll just hit them with a Scotchbrite pad, but otherwise it really doesn't bother me much.

    Check Engine Light Caused by Bug(insect) in sensor

    Same thing happened to my mother's G35 except it wouldn't even start or run. I was kind of puzzled on that one. I guess it's possible for a bug to burrow through the filter.

    Aux Button - What is this for?

    You can get the triptunes hookup thing cheap from Moss Mustang, only $59 but I bet you could find it cheaper even elsewhere. I've been contemplating it but money is tight right now so I'm holding off.

    Whats your occupation?

    Well, for the time being I am a purchasing manager for a small chemical company but I'm waiting for them to draw up a severance package for me. Not sure what I want to get into next but the petro-chem industry is booming in the Houston area so I shouldn't have a problem finding a job even if it...

    Pypes Muffler Delete Too Loud on Highway

    Something I'm considering for the future is to get Magnaflow mufflers and install them like Pypes Mid Mufflers but this is when I plan on going with long tubes.

    Anyone else gotten the 'thumbs up?'

    I still remember my first thumbs up. A guy in a black E55 AMG was hanging out his window giving me the thumbs up. My girlfriend was like, "What is that guy doing?" I had to explain the whole concept to her.
