    exhaust dilemma

    i got a whole lot more performance out of the exhaust over the dp. maybe the guys that felt such an improvement swapping the dp had a clogged pre cat or something. dunno. dp is more tricky to make than the exhaust, atleast for me. btw, dr jonezz is selling a dp right now in the for sale...

    exhaust dilemma

    its aluminized piping. that means its steel that has been coated w/ an aluminum alloy. it just helps prevent rusting is all it does. crush bends arent the greatest, but for our cars you can make the exhaust with one single bend, and that isnt much of one, right around a 45* bend. this...

    Another new product coming soon from SIP- stroker kits!!

    bhg is usually poor torque or poor tune. and rod knock is usually poor machine work or poor oil maintance. the crank should have 0 effect either way.

    Ky Suprameet??!!

    ive been to cc many times. usually the people that complain about it are the ones that go to beech bend most often. it isnt as nice of a track as bb, and like i said its kinda out in the middle of a mountain. the biggest downfall is sometimes the track prep is kinda lacking. the biggest...

    How far can I go with this?

    right there is the key. 60' time makes a huge impact on et. 1/10th sec improvement = 2/10th sec improvement in et. good tires, proper pressure, and proper launch will help you. go practice! good luck muy drygg!

    Ultimate Turbo for the 7MGTE

    500rw on pump gas is going to mean a 64-67mm turbo. none of those are going to hit full boost under 4k rpm, but they will be making boost at that point. best deal i have going is the 67dbb which will make the power and help with spool. but sounds like even at 1149 range its more than you want...

    Dual Walbros?

    good ideas, but might add to that. c16 is probably not required, esp for only 18psi. too much octane will decrease hp. wideband is a good idea, but you also again have to be careful w/ the octane. you can have safe a/f numbers but too much boost for the octane will cause detonation.

    Need Help Installing Tial Bov

    sounds like your cps wiring is bad. its the hockey puck looking thing on the passenger side of the head. its behind the water neck. if the sticker is still on there it will say cam position sensor. with the car running, jiggle the connector and wiring at the cps and see if the car dies...

    about 0.96 exhaust housings . too big for 7M?

    yeah 10psi it isnt going to do much. glad you got it to spool a little better tho. still sounds like you have an issue w/ the gate. either vac lines, vac source, hookup, or gate itself.
