    SHE RUNS!!!!

    Congrats on finishing the build. There's nothing like that first drive! On a serious note. Something doesn't quite sound right. I dont know how big the cam is but...i've never heard a motor sound like that. What's the timing and fuel pressure set at. Where's it idling at...sounds really...

    Holy rear gear batman!!!

    I would count the driveshaft vs tire rotations to come up with a more accurate value. I highly doubt they would put something that high in a v8...nevermind a 4 banger. I just dont see that happening.

    Lets go shopping!

    Well 2 thousand bucks isnt going to get you very far towards the A5 or G-force tranny swap. And i think putting a stock t5 behind an HCI stroker is just silly. That will last for a very short while...at which point you'll have to lay out the 2 grand for a real tranny. I say you spend that...

    are 3.08's killing me?

    Gears are a must. While i agree that they are not the end all be all of mods. They do help HCI cars get into and stay in the power band. I noticed that my highway mileage didn't suffer that much at all. Maybe 1-2 mpg if i'm driving faster than 80mph. If i drive 75 mph... i get about the...

    LONG story and legal question

    That sucks man. I agree with those that said you should only tell the truth. Finger pointed should be held as a last resort. I dont think you did anything wrong...except for getting into some business that wasnt yours. You did the right things once the cops confronted you...so they should...

    X pipe questions...

    Wow...thats a lot of different combos. I ran my old setup dumped for a long time. I ran shorty headers with the stock H pipe and dumped flows, then i ran a hi-flow catted H pipe with dumped flows, then i ran the same thing with an O/R H pipe. They got progressively louder...but i just wasnt...

    X pipe questions...

    I've listened to a lot of exhaust clips...and i think i have come to the consensus that i 'm just not such a big fan of the flowmaster sound anymore. Dont get me wrong...i think a stang with flows sounds classically excellent. Good tone, good sound volume. But Flows leave a bit to be desired...

    X pipe questions...

    What's up guys...so here's the deal. My current O/R H pipe has been hacked up twice now and its leaking in various places. I've always been intrigued by the sound of the X pipes...so i picked up a BBK O/R X pipe for long tubes for like 150 shipped. How much different is this going to sound...

    G** Damn door handles!~! AHH!

    yes...the linkage bar can just fall off the lock mechanism. It happened to me three times so far with my metal handles. It always happens in the cold....with snow or ice. Last time it happened i pressed on a small piece of sheet metal over the linkage bar and it has not happened since then...

    GAS SAVING TIP

    I dont know who just "taught" you that little fact in # 4 but its completely untrue. First off you should be talking about open loop. Closed loop is when the computer is recieving/processing information from the O2 sensors. Open loop is when the ECU ignores the O2 sensor data and relies...

    Where can I find the MAF maps

    what do you need the MAF transfer functions for? Is this for your personal tuning purposes. What did those MAFs come out of...i might be able to give you a hand....

    5300ft above sea level, car runs like crap.

    You are right about the MAP sensor acting as a baro during crank-before-start. Where i think you may be missing is that there is just less air up there. Thats the nature of high altitude. Not only does the altitude affect air density...it will also affect your ignition system (spark plugs)...

    any experience with the edelbrock rpm 2??

    Port the gt-40 lower. The rpmII is not really a street friendly 302 intake. Its more for strokers and FI. Tmoss can do an excellent job porting your current gt-40 lower. Probably pick up about 20fwhp from his work... You can purchase a core from him...he can do the porting and ship it to...

    Fuel Economy In The Gutter

    You need an accurate way of calculating your fuel economy. Just taking the number of miles per tank means nothing. I only get about 200 miles per tank in mixed city/country road driving with my car according to the gauge. But then i fill it up and can only fit 12ish gallons in the tank...
