    Effect of Ignition Timing on Coolant Temperature?

    No, the whole reason I bought a tuner was so that I could adjust my torque converter functions, shift points, and line pressure. I also wanted to delete my EGR and AIR systems...at this point I have zero interest in learning spark tables. But thanks for the concern. That's what I was...

    Effect of Ignition Timing on Coolant Temperature?

    In Pittsburgh!? It wasn't 105 today! More like 90...? I replaced the radiator in the spring with a nice Visteon piece and run a 180* thermostat...stays nice and cool.

    Effect of Ignition Timing on Coolant Temperature?

    Was playing with my timing today via the global spark adder in the Tweecer (for you non-Tweecgeeks, it's the equivalent of spinning your distributor). Anyway, I normally run around with 14* of timing (value of "4" in global spark adder w/dizzy set at 10*)... Today, I took it up to 16* (by...

    WAY Down on Power... I Hate my Car

    FIXED THE MOTHER****ER!!!!!!11111111111!!!!!!!!1111 yay The fuel problem was indeed caused by the front fuel rail being "pinched". I sacked up and really ground into the front of the lower intake to where the fuel tube had plenty of room. Reinstalled, and bam, fuel pressure now acts...

    Fuel leaking from tank...ugh...HELP PLZ!!

    There is a rubber..."gasket" that holds the filler tube in the gas tank. These are known to rot and create leaks. Buy one at the Ford dealership (like $20). To install it, remove the filler tube retaining bolts from the car, the drop the tank. Pull the tube out, discard the old gasket...

    Advice on racing with Drag Radials

    If you have Nittos: BURN them for at least 8-10 seconds in second gear to get them sticky. If you have BFGs: 3 or 4 second second gear burnout should be fine.

    Alright so my dad beefed up his Z28 vert LT1 with 4.10's..is he gonna beat me?

    Does a 10PSI turbo create as much torque as a 100 shot? I'm honestly asking, not being a dick. It's torque that kills transmissions, and nitrous makes TONS of torque. A 100 shot is known to make ~200lb/ft of torque....his car probably is close to 300 lb/ft n/a. I'd imagine that his T5 will...

    I predict: You will beat your dad. Your T5 will explode if you use nitrous.

    A/F Ratio Monitoring, How To Do So

    As you guys can see, I'm a real newb about this stuff...I'd assumed that you just plugged the wideband into the existing 02 sensor bung... You actually have to cut/weld a new bung into the exhaust to accomodate a wideband kit? Thanks, -Shawn

    A/F Ratio Monitoring, How To Do So

    Any suggestions on which kit? If you saw my other thread concerning my car's problems you'll probably understand... I don't need to monitor both at the same time either...I could use one "kit" and switch it back and forth. I'm just not entirely sure what comes with a "kit" and what you...
