    187 Ride or Die?? WTF is this ghetto crap?

    I just saw what may be proof of the accelerating decline of American society. Some new game idolizing the rap music culture is hitting the stores soon. From what I could see, its gang members or some crap riding around and shooting at each other from cars they (or myself for that matter) could...

    What the hell?!

    For those of you who do not already know, octane is a measurement of how well the atomized fuel resists detonation. The higher the octane, the more resistance to detonation caused by carbon deposits and higher than normal combustion chamber temperatures, which can cause pinging or detonation. A...

    Innovate Motorsports vs PLX Devices M-300 Wideband

    Innovate's unit is the choice I made, because of the flexibility, the ability to add other devices, the datalogging capability, the software upgrades and support, and the ability to ensure accurate calibration when installing in a new vehicle or reinstalling after making mods. For another $50...

    How to install braided fuel line ends?

    Man. We must be at about the same point with our cars. I had the same problem and went to the local speed shop and asked the guru there. First off, it is supposed to be a tight fit, but you can use WD40 or some other type of lube to ease the hose over the end. Are you using hose, ends and...

    need advice on affordable tires

    Pilot Sports are not cheap. They were $300+ each for my 01 740i Sport with the 18" M parallel wheels. They are, however, an absolutely amazing tire. :nice:

    8.8?

    You will notice a BIG difference over the stock gearing, especially in the SOTP. :nice: Don't fear the gear.

    MPG Improvments needed!

    Like said above tire pressure. A 3psi deficit can translate into a 10% decrease in fuel economy according to engineers at Pirelli. Plus your tires wear better.

    I need engine color scheme help

    Aside from all the BS drama :rolleyes: , your engine bay does not necessarily have to match the exterior, just complement it. Maybe body color accents on a silver type finish. Not necessarily polished because of all the work involved (I wouldn't want to keep up with it), but a painted silver, or...

    You can take the Stanger out of the ghetto, but... well you know the rest.

    My Car = Way Too Hot

    I have a stock MAF you can use to check it. I am about 2.5 hours from you, I believe you said.

    MGW Shifter Handle?

    My MGW puts a smile on my face every time I grab the composite Cobra shift knob. It's so damn pretty, I wish I could show off the shifter and handle though, the shift boot conceals it. The only way you can tell is if you drive it. :D

    Aerodynamic experts, SN95 vs Fox Body, which goes through the wind the easiest?

    If what Swarzkopf posted is accurate, then our SN95's have a lower coefficient of drag and are therefore more aerodynamic than the 99-04. A cD of .32 vs .36 for the New Edge design.

    $6,000 enough for a 450-500hp 347 and a tremec tko600?

    No way, man. Sorry, but if you cut corners and try to do stuff on the cheap you will likely be sorry later down the road. My 347 project is pushing the $8000 mark without a new tranny. That does not include labor, but includes a complete Aeromotive Competition Fuel Kit, a UPR K member, A-arms...

    Is it possible to connect LED's to headlight dimmer?

    Thanks guys for the help. One more Q: I was talking to a friend about this and he claims that after a certain point of turning the dimmer knob they would simply cease to light up at all. Something to do with the resistors inside or something. Is this your experience or do they dim along with...
