    New Exhaust....Now Overheating...WHAT?!

    Already searched and couldn't find a thing. I have been running fine on the heater core for months now with no problems (made sure to burp the system pretty good) this was a night and day event. Day before drove the car hard and no temp change. Now peaking out high. Don't have a clue. Anyone else?

    hey you AOD guys in here....

    mid 14's at best with only weld in Flowmasters the rest is STOCK, well for now. Now if CarFreakGT will give me his 3.73's on short credit we'll see what it can do. Oh God, does anyone else hear the MOD voices in my head. So much for keeping it stock.

    Auto tranny question

    Do the Cooler. You will not regret it. Especially if you start messing with the shift firmness and shift points. This gives you insurance from heat.

    HELP!!! MAC o/r H-pipe sounds like crap...

    check for leaks and give it time. I installed the prochamber and 2 months later it sounded WAY different than it did a day or two afterwards. Now it is smooth at low RPM'S and Roars at anything above 2500.

    Magnaflow cat-back w/ VRS X-pipe...does it sound raspy?

    I have regular magnaflow w/ Prochamber. Nice smooth sound. I believe that regular magnaflows with x would be too smooth to be raspy. Now magnapack would be a whole different story.

    Just bought a 00 GT got some questions

    18x9 the smallest I would go would be a 255/35 and out back would be 275 at the smallest. Idealy 265/35 up front and 295/35 or 285/35 out back. As san~man says that combo will not be practical ( as practical as 18's with high performance tires can be ). Oh yeah Welcome! :nice:

    Lose The Rear Cats, Lose Torque.

    before I put on the O/R Prochamber. I could also break the tires loose just by stomping the gas from a rolling start. Now it's all power at 2500+ rpm. That is the magic number because at that rpm the car comes alive, it's acctually scary that I can be cruising along and push it to 2500+ hard and...

    Best Shocks for the money?

    Car is stock except for weld in flowmasters. I don't plan on lowering it at all. My budget is minimal. I don't want crap so I am willing to pay for a decent shock that will last. I want a better than stock replacements but not much better. Tokico's are probably out my range and scope.
