    Best 3 inch QUIET Muffler?

    I have an Apexi N1 with silencer, and I miss the sound of my stock exhaust, but need the 3 inch exhaust so the stock muffler will not do Any ideas on stock sounding high flow mufflers? Not looking to spend much, but I don't want attention, and am getting it as my exhaust can be considered...

    maft pro fuel cut, F out set to less than 1500

    I am now running 550 injectors, and maft pro among other things. The upgrade to 550s and an afpr allowed me to put boost to 12psi. I hit fuel cut at 3000 RPMS if I floor it If I ease up from 2000 to 3000 and slowly go over it works fine It is between 11 and 13 air fuel ratio the...

    Have I reached the limit of my stock Fuel System?

    I have my car tuned and one of the only problems I have left is that If I am under full boost (12psi) high up in the RPM range (3500 up) for at least 4 seconds and at most 9 seconds the car goes real lean, then normal, then lean, then normal each second, the tune is fine, I am almost positive, I...

    On highway decel MAP is around 9 and car is lean

    When going around 80-90 on the highway I let go of the gas and the car's MAP is around 9 @ 3000ish RPMs which causes a lean condition because the 9 MAP means the car is in "LOW" but it is so low that when I tune low at 3000 I can't make it richer because I would ruin my actual 3000 at low when...

    Idle Randomly High, Other times perfect

    I had just about given up on fixing my high idle (1600 in neutral, 1000 in drive) but driving I noticed that it returned to normal for about 20 miles, then went back to idling high This started happening a day after my maft pro install Any ideas what would cause the high idle most of...

    Strange BOV problem

    My stock BOV has failed and lets out all my boost after 1 PSI, until it actually should act as a BOV, then it is stuck shut. I replaced with a SSQV (Real) and it does not leak out air, but it also does not blow off. I checked the hose going to the bov and it has vacuum what can cause a...

    Leaking coolant from under CPS and above manifold

    Is this common to leak coolant from under the CPS and above the exhaust manifold? I can't see exactly where it is coming from without starting to remove lots of things, so I was hoping someone could help pinpoint where to look? I'm hoping it is impossible for the headgasket to blow that...

    Maft Pro Lean during boost

    I have my maft pro tuned almost perfectly and one of my last issues is that under "HIGH" (MAP of 130 and higher) when boosting (even 1PSI), AFR will be about 11-12 for a couple seconds of boost, then it suddenly drops to below what the meter can read (10) and if I continued to hold the throttle...

    maft pro and wideband

    When I go to install my maft pro system I want a wideband installed with it for obvious reasons can I remove the stock o2 sensor and use the bung for a wideband that hooks into the maft pro or does the ECU still need the o2 signal even after going maft?

    Removing Rear Knock Sensor in 5 Minutes

    After reading on how much of a pain in the ass the rear knock sensor was to remove I dreaded doing it The way I did it requires removing nothing but the actual knock sensor, not the starter and not the intake. First thing you need is to get the car off the ground so you can get under it...
