    turbo setup help

    Well, first of all, it sounds like your compression ratio is to high. 9.5:1 is about the highest you could go w/ a super/turbocharger. First priorities is to lower your compression. Another thing, making all that power is great, but you gotta figure out how to hook up first...good luck with...

    Car smokes...

    Ya, the more and more I think about it I think it's the valve seals. It's pretty much only on one side of the car(passenger), so I think I'll pull the heads, cut and lap the valves, and new gaskets all the way around. Thanks for your input.

    Car smokes...

    Oh, thanks. Well, up until today it had only smoked when I came to the bottom of a hill, now its doing it quite consistantly, and it seems like the smoke is comming out of the right tailpipe and not the left. I'm pretty sure that it's oil, because that's what it smells like and its blueish. I...

    Car smokes...

    Ok, my 1989 LX smokes (only once in a while) when it's comming down the bottom of a big hill. Usually I'll just coast down in neutral, and then smoke will start to come out of the tail pipes(grey or white smoke not sure), which means it isnt oil. It doesnt burn any oil either. Its a built DSS...

    How can I be running stock injectors...?

    So I recently purchased this car off of my buddy. It has a DSS 306 longblock, TFS heads, gt40 intake, 65 mm tb, 190 lph fuel pump, ect. It's running stock 19 lb injectors? How can this be? It doesn't feel like it's running lean or starving for fuel, and the fuel pressure is set at 40 psi...

    I know this isn't a mustang question, but I'm in some trouble...any help appriciated

    Ok, so I've got a 1994 Ford ranger, 3.0L V6 and I've got a really wierd problem.

The truck will stall...

    SMOG PUMP LOCKED UP_HELP

    The exact same thing happened to me on saturday(except I was racing an R6 when it happened haha), but especially if you gotta pass emissions you need to replace. It's only like $30 and there is really no difference in power. It's real easy to replace also, just two bolts, remove the rubber...

    Idoling problem...

    Ok, so I have the classic idoling problem. It's not a cold idol tho, because when I first start it up it idols perfect, but after I've driven it for a while it will idol irreguraly, and this doesn't happen all the time. I pulled the IAC, cleaned and inspected it today, and it helped a little...

    It has nothing to do w/ noise. You buy a blower for power, not for the sound that it makes.

    Alternator Problem

    Yes it does have the fan bladeson the front, but I don't think that's the problem. The rattle/rapping sounds like Its comming from the back of the alternator. Also, the accessory belt seems like its redicusely tight, w/ no play at all
