    Long Tubes with Cat

    JBA has catted as well as no-cat h-pipes that go with their long tube headers. Bassani cans with JBA long-tubes and catted h-pipe are LOUD and a very deep sound. The couple of times I drove to work with this combo I set off car alarms in the parking garage just cruising by. The mufflers are...

    Just purchased Supercharger, do I have to send my PCM in?

    You aren't required to send in your pcm - If you do, they will flash it with a canned tune that worked on their test mule with just the S/C installed. If instead you buy a predator or sc2, you can have a shop create a custom tune for your car that will most likely work better than the tune...

    Turbonator

    LOL, I thought you were going to say it would make your car lighter and improve mileage. Haven't tried it myself, but there's talk about it on the motorcycle boards from time to time.

    Predator use question - diagnostics

    You can log and/or watch the O2 sensor voltages (which correlates to a/f ratios), as well as long and short term fuel trims and some other parameters. I would expect the headers to cause some leanness, which the computer should be able to compensate for in closed-loop mode, I would be a bit...

    Check engine light with off road X

    Unless you tune it and have the rear O2 sensors turned off, yes.

    Installed my Bassani axle-back today, Not what I expected!

    My Bassani's with JBA long tubes and catted h-pipe were so loud I removed them.

    New GT and What is This?

    I don't know about pic #1, but the rings in pic #2 are leftovers from the assembly process - we all have them and I'm sure there are other such items here & there in the car. Probably used to hang the tubes/hoses during assembly.

    Need a good shop in the Los Angeles area

    The 4th time I swapped mufflers it still took an hour - but it's a simple bolt-on mod - four 13mm bolts and one 15mm nut per side.

    JBA LT rattling

    Shop installed them like the instructions. It was worth a shot... Mine are pretty close, but IIRC, I could probably almost get a writing pen between the header and frame.

    JBA LT rattling

    kfd, did you install 2 hard/2 soft bushings, or 4 soft? I wonder, because I had the hard (black) bushings installed on the side the engine rotates to and mine don't hit.

    Revvs like heck on startup?

    Jeez! I never noticed mine doing this until after I got a custom tune (after long-tube headers, among other things) - I thought it was the tune causing it, but I guess I only noticed it because my exhaust is louder. :doh:

    You think these would be cool on an 05

    ...and heat-resistant neon tubes that go in the pipe for the kaleidoscope effect!

    Shifter install Problem

    Unfortunately, it was a Dynojet 248. The tuner showed me a file from another 05 that got like 246 with CAI on it, then 290 on another shop's dyno, so I'm pretty sure it's the dyno, not my car. I love the 4.10's, but it seems the Predator is not loading the gear change properly, as I'm still...

    Shifter install Problem

    Heh, I can't take credit for those pics, they are "borrowed" from someone else, mine looks the same, except I'm using the T-handle. I got my car back, but I need to have some additional tuning done. She surges up to 2250 rpm for several seconds when started cold, and has just a small lean...

    What is the best shifter for DAILY DRIVING, Steeda Tri-ax or MGW???

    Hurst! ...see, everone likes the one they have. :)

    Shifter install Problem

    You can't see the shaft if you use the stock knob, since the knob has a ring on it that pulls the shift boot up to the bottom of the knob. If you get the shifter with the white knob or the t-handle, it comes with a rubbery plastic ring that slides down the shaft and holds the boot in place...

    Mustang friendly front end ramps?

    Just bought some Rhino Ramps. My car is lowered just over an inch and I have no problems with them.
