well after changing out the coil and plug wires the car runs alot better.
still has no power when it shifts to 3rd.


but yeah i also got the cervinis hood on with the cobra bumper and i believe it will look really nice after it all gets painted the same color.


i also got rid of the stock air box and put on an off name brand k and n air filter and i did notice a bit better throttle response

if coil and plug wires helped have you done plugs and cap/rotor yet?

When i bought mine it still had original ignition components... 1994 wires, plug gap was up to 0.125-0.138", coil electrode was corroeded from the wires... it was bad... this was with 123k miles and only 3 years ago...

I would also suggest you clean your MAF... these things solved MOST of my drivability issues... but I got a deal on the car due to the drivability issues...

yeah i did change the plugs and cap a couple months ago

the reason i changed the plug wires is a couple got close to the headers and were a little crunchy so i decided it would be a smart idea to change them too

i have cleaned the MAF but i will clean it again because the air filter that i put on may have been oiled while shipped
