    Magnaflow catted x-pipe

    I've had a Magnaflow Catted-X pipe for 5 years and have never thrown a code. Now that I have the Supercharger installed I turned off the rear O2 sensors (all they do is tell the computer if the cats are working) and installed a wideband O2 in the passenger side rear O2 bung.

    2volt Impact Wrench

    Yes they work pretty good, not quite like a "real" one. When you hit the trigger the electric motor spins freely to a certain rpm the the clutch engages so it kind of "jerky" when it is torqueing. When you first put the nuts on and there is no resistance it works like a drill driver.

    Bad Aviator fuel pump?

    Certainly sounds like a bad pump or a bad fuel rail regulator. I have a Focus pump and it works fine.

    Yes it opens at high vacume conditions (i.e. part throttle) to keep the SC from causing a surging senstion.
