    C&L Plenum

    I disagree. I think you will run lean and may run into detonation or pinging. Look at my mods- I have almost the same setup as you. Once I installed the Superchips performance setting I immediately got detonation. The only way I was able to stop the pinging was with the Pro-M remote optimizer...

    ses light flashing and misfiring badly

    I am willing to bet it is your crank pulley bolt backing out since you said you have pulleys. When the bolt backs out, the crank pulley wobbles and messes up the timing sensor. Mine did this and I had the exact same problems: SES light, began flashing at highway speeds and engine misfired. The...

    Just Ordered Magnaflow C/xpipe, Easy To Install???

    yeah, it's easy as long as you have the right tools. Specifically you'll need a ratchet wrench, the correct socket, a long (18-24") extension, and universal joint to get the old H-pipe off of the exhaust manifolds.

    plenum/ throttle bodyand a/f ratio?

    The plenum/tb combo leaned me out considerably and was easily noticed, without ever putting my car on a dyno. When I programmed my ECU with the Superchips, I was unable to use the performance setting because I was pinging really bad, and this is with 91 octane. To solve this, I bought the...

    MAF Help!

    I'm pretty sure the Pro-M Bullet MAF is compatible and has the same connection as your stock MAF.

    i have some dyno proof on k&n filters, ya know ya wanna see it!!!

    Sounds like you're on a mission to prove the majority wrong, so let me add a few points: -You're "experiment" is completely unscientific. You made dyno runs on separate days, months apart- although you may think the conditions were the same how do you know? Do you have accurate measurements...

    Does a Superchips tune remain adaptive?

    I take it nobody has a clue what changes these make to our ECUs????

    Does a Superchips tune remain adaptive?

    The mods are in my sig...I think it is definitely running lean. From what I know, Superchips doesn't add that much timing. I was just wondering if the computer will adapt and add more fuel. And also, will it still be able to adapt to ambient temperature and altitude changes now that it has...

    Does a Superchips tune remain adaptive?

    I just programmed my car with the 1725 microtuner and I think it's causing detonation. I think my car has been lean ever since I put the plenum and throttle body on because I got the "marbles in a tin can" sound going up hills in 5th gear. So I started using 89 octane and it seemed to cure...

    Magnaflow vs. Flowmaster

    Well that is reassuring because I prefer the sound I have with the Flowmasters. I'm surprised to hear that the Magnaflows drone more- I've heard my friends GT with Magnaflows and his seemed quiter both at idle and when he revved. The flowmasters seem to have a deeper rumble when idleing and...

    Magnaflow vs. Flowmaster

    I have been reading on this forum that Flowmasters may actually hurt power over stock mufflers. I currently have the 3 chambered Force II cat back. I love the sound- very muscular and throaty, even at idle- slight drone at 2000 rpm. But could they be costing me horsepower? Should I switch to...

    Does your car whistle after Plenum and Throttle Body??

    Mine whistles loudly with BBK 75mm and C & L plenum. I've posted this before, and I'll post it again- Any cheap, cordless drill with a phillips screwdriver bit will easily back out those TPS screws. Very easy people!

    Question about throttle body swap

    getting the TPS screws out is NOT hard at all. All you need is a cordless drill and phillips screwdriver bit. They will back right out.

    Any difference between a 01 and 02 GT?

    I think the MAF in the 01 is more restrictive because the plastic post holding the resistive element goes all the way through the MAF whereas in the 02 it only goes down halfway. That's what I gather from looking at an 01 MAF on the MM&FF website.

    Show off your painted side views!

    I think painted side mirrors would look great on my zinc yellow gt. Those of you who have done this, show 'em off. Also, how did you do it, and how much did it cost...
