    Operation "Can't hear shit" *Pics*

    Oooh, thread resurrection. Interior's going 5 years strong now with no chipping or peeling. Spent a lot of that time parked outside too. Here's the latest interior update for anyone who cares. Finally installed my powder coated TMS harness bar. The Corbeau 3 point retractable harnesses sit...

    mines ecu how much ????

    I'd say $350 to $500. But won't get too many interested buyers unless you know what it is setup for, ie. raised fuel cut off, injector size, rev limit increase, etc.

    R154 heat

    ^ No prob. And I'm just using their regular water-based sound deadening compound. Their thermal barrier stuff has ceramic mixed in. I stuck with the regular for cost and weight savings. Surprisingly it does not burn on my firewall or next to the exhaust pipes. But then again, neither does the...

    R154 heat

    I have several mm's of second skin sprayed inside and under the car. New carpet has thick padding as well. Never experienced any heat issues whatsoever. http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?98641-Operation-quot-Can-t-hear-shit-quot-*Pics*

    Help me troubleshoot 3 ABS Codes

    Thanks for the replies. That should get me started. One strange thing I noticed is that when driving, the ABS light is solid, but starts flashing codes as soon as I come to a full stop. This is with the ABS module plugged in. According to the TSRM, this should not be happening. Ideas?

    Cool/Rare parts thread?

    ^ Wow. Even worse than I imagined. I thought it was going to replace the lid entirely. On a side note, what the hell is up with the small section of bright red carpet in that interior?

    Cool/Rare parts thread?

    I would think that would sit up way too high once installed. Hard to believe that this would be a factory option. Looks like someone took it out of a conversion van and bolted some brackets to the bottom. The design and the fabric don't seem to match any MK3 interior that I've come across...

    Resurrection of a beat up Greddy Intercooler *Pics*

    Many of the really damaged fins required the use of two flat head screw drivers being held at different angles to bend a fin with one and support it from the other side with the other. I got into a Zen-like state of concentration while doing it. Kinda felt like a brain surgeon. lol. My father is...

    Resurrection of a beat up Greddy Intercooler *Pics*

    Tried the comb, didn't really help me much. With smashed in fins, a pair of small flat heads is the only thing that'll work without ripping the fins. As far as straightening goes, the tweezer part went fairly brisk and easy.

    Resurrection of a beat up Greddy Intercooler *Pics*

    Made one pass with 2 small flat head screw drivers to pull and angle each fin. Then made another pass with a small pair of tweezers to pinch each fin straight. Painstakingly slow, but effective.

    Several interior lights are not working. Faulty integration relay?

    Nobody has any insight? Where should I start as far as troubleshooting goes?

    Several interior lights are not working. Faulty integration relay?

    The little red door lights, hatch area light, key chime, glove box light and vanity light work. That's it though. No other lights come on. The driver map light, dome lights, ignition cylinder light and DC outlet light (which has power) do not come on. I pulled the dome light fuse in the engine...

    Aftermarket boost gauge in stock location

    My trip meter started getting stuck at nine. A few hundred miles later if won't move at all once I reset it to zero. I don't see how it would have anything to do with the cluster being taken out, the little plastic gear just gets worn. Best bet is to try and find an odometer with close to your...

    Resurrection of a beat up Greddy Intercooler *Pics*

    Might be repairable with a brazing rod depending on where the core is split.

    Resurrection of a beat up Greddy Intercooler *Pics*

    Scored a pretty sweet deal on a roached Greddy R-SPL 2 Row. The cores looked intact so I thought I'd take a chance on it. Well after a good cleaning inside and out it was time to straighten fins. Some little tweezers and a lot of patience goes a long way. Here's where 10+ hrs gets ya. Before...

    Anyone live around Charleston SC that could help me tweak my AEM v1 tune?

    I cannot find a shop in the area that I trust. I've been getting far too many "yeah, I'll give it a shot" or "I can probably figure it out" to dare let them touch my car. I had the car tuned a couple of years ago in Maryland and once I had it towed down here, it shifted my tune due to me being a...

    BIC Divorced Downpipe or Cheap Ebay Divorced Downpipe??

    The wastegate flapper doesn't need to open very far to regulate boost, so it should stay shut up until just before your set boost is reached. If it even opens a crack it will definitely slow your spool considerably. What I believe is happening is that your DDP's divider isn't mating completely...
