Hate to hear that bro. ... but yeah I agree, you should save some $$$ and do the TFS kit yourself.

 

[mricci]

You can do it yourself, just do some reading, there are a few good how-to's online you will be able to find.

Its not that i cant do it. theres 2 big things holding me back. one my parents will kick me out the house if i put more unneeded parts in the stang. meaning they cant see nothing, i would have to live the car somewere else, and i dont have a second car i can use so driving back and forth is a problem. now the biggest problem, ME!!!!!!!!!!! lol i have a bad temper. and since all the parts are gonna end up to 3000 bucks,(been planning this for a while lol) and i dont wanna mess it up. Like i did my gtp when i got pissed and put the pulley in with a hammer. lol i know im dumb, but im trying to avoid things that make mad. dam i wrote my first paragraph since high school lol. i just copied this of another site that i posted.

after i posted this, a couple of friends said i could leave the car at there house, and they will help me out. they said it would take no longer than a week,theve done it before). so i just need to buy parts. this is a Grandprix Arrizona site. so no more labor prices. HELLLLL YYYEEAAH!!!!!!!11lol

do the work yourself. Its not that hard.

DITTO. Use your time wisely. Start reviewing "how to's" now while the car is down so that when you get the parts you can start doing the work yourself. It is not hard at all - just a little time. Check out the "how to" section here and buy a Haynes manual, plus we'll help. You will feel better doing it yourself - knowing that all your parts were actually used - and your pockets won't be as light. Oh, if you do it yourself you can now invest more money into quality parts and not some Jackleg's pockets. As NIKE slogan says "JUST DO IT". Just One Man's Opinion.

Peace

You may already have these but you have no signature - don't know


Fuel Pump - 255lph (too lean condition = blown head gasket)
Fuel gauge
AFP regulator
Water Temp gauge
Wideband o2 sensor (too lean condition = blown head gasket)
Tune (too lean condition = blown head gasket)
Larger than 30s injectors (check the tune section for SC cars)
Larger Mass Air (check the tune section)
Patience
