    Screw this NA 2.3L! Questions about the swap

    I've searched the forums but It always seems to miss my questions. I'm going to buy a merkur 2.3L turbo motor and port the hell out of it, put a t3/t4 turbo on it, and get a forged rotating assembly to show those import tuners who was here first... I figure it will be a fun change from the...

    gangsta lean

    I was jerking the car around on the gas pedal last year and I entirely broke the seat and went all the way back while I was driving, thats some scary ****, especially when you have to lean foward with no seat back for 30 miles.

    2 1/2 or 3'' spintech exhaust

    3", I run 3" spintech exhaust and it sounds great and I gained low end power from a stock h-pipe. PEople will always seem fit to argue you loose low end, but with the amount of high end you get from the change that dosent even matter.

    pull the metal out as much as you can, you never use more than 1/8th inch of filler if you want to go by the professionals methods. Once you get it out quite a bit, get a rubber mallet or a body spoon back there and start smoothing it out.

    H/C/I or s/c???

    first mod I ever did to my mustang was a blower, and then I slowly did everything else, and it was fun because mods that normall add a few horses to an na car added like 20 to mine at a time, real fun. mike: Depending on what crowd you run with, N/A can only go so far on a street car...

    Accelerometer/Performance Meters worth it?

    the new gtechs, the competition models, dont matter if your on level ground, it has another ballast that calibrates the entire meter to whatever angle you are at.

    why is my tach sticking?

    no, you dont understand how easy it is, just go out and buy a new tach and slide it in, you can get a used one for like 5-10 bucks off dfwstangs.net. I've fixed both of my cars ,and 3 other cars not including mine, takes about 45 minutes from beginning to end.

    need help with my Grand AM before I get screwed out of $1400

    okay, the lower intake gasket ALWAYS goes out on those motors, that was most definately probable. However, I'm skeptical like you. Check the oil for coolant, and check the coolant for oil. Take the radiator cap off and start the car and let it run, see if yuo see any small bubbles(...

    don't let this happen to you

    haha, yeah I had that happen a few times, scary. I was at the street races where they jacked all of my stereo among other things, on the way home on the highway I discovered they also pryed the hood open and broke the latch to see if they could take some motor parts :) fun!

    Changing all 6 lights tomorrow at 5:30am, what is the easiest way?

    are you talking about the black cylinder on the back of the bulbs? that turns 30 degrees and pops off to let the bulb out... 3 bolts holding on the main lamp, 2 bolts holding on the others.

    I broke the lugnut key, now what???

    When we lost the lugs up at work we just airhammered the nuts off there, trust me, that'll get them you can also try a snap on or motorcraft lock lug set which you hammer onto the lug and it eats teeth into it and you can try to take it off, but normally thats only with impacts.
