On my way from work i went to accelerate from a red light and it felt like my car had zero power. It would have been a normal accelerarion that had my car shifting around 3.5 to 4 grand (probably half throttle if that) so i then knew something was up. After that it seemed fine and the. Turning...
So I just installed a uicp and a 1g bov. My car was at 15 psi from bolt ons and the bcs mod but now its spiking past 20 and always past 15 but creeps and stays steady at around 14-15. Should I install my MBC? Should I worry about the car kitting 20 psi for a second?
I got this code a few months ago after my car was idleing for about ten minutes. Replaces the IAC valve and the code went away. This morning after getting to work it was ideling for about 15 minutes and the CEL came on with the same code.My question is what can cause this problem? I never...
Last night u went to roll my driver side window up and heard a snapping noise and then the window wouldn't roll up or down. When I use the switch it still makes noise but doesn't sound like it should. I sounds like its broken or something. But if the motor was bad wouldn't it not work at all?

So when I drive my car in town it smells bad... I really don't think its an exhaust leak. I have no cat.I've thought for a while that I may have a bad valve stem seal because of smoking on cold start. Could bad valve stem seals allowing oil to be burned and no cat be causing my smell??I'm...

Okay so I'm getting ready to put new spark plugs on wires on my car so I've been reading about firing order and all that. This two pictures I've uploaded show the firing order and that simple... My next question is the wires pictured and even the wires on my car aren't the same size. They go...
Hey fellas... Couple questions... My valve cover has a tiny crack in the well so it fills up with oil. So I bought another cover and will replace it today. However.... A week ago I did the valve cover gasket and the rings and bought an OEM cap thinking t

Hey fellas..So my oil pan is leaking a little and I'm taking it to the mechanic next week to get it resealed. My question is, how many hours of labor I should expect to pay for.My exhaust was out on with new hardware just a few months ago so getting the down pipe off shouldn't be a problem...
Hey fellas!So tonight I did a few things to my car. Nothing to serious. I took off the smic and cleaned it (I used gas and it came out looking real dark) and I then cut the bov dump tube and finally installed a MBC.So I went to do a few pulls and set the psi where I wanted it. I started at...

OK so I just installed a boost gauge and with just an air intake im at 12-13 PSI. So my question is if I go to 16 PSI will I see noticeable gains? And another question can my stock bov handle that PSI?

I was driving on the interstate yesterday and only going 70 on cruise control and I accidently bumped my shifter into neutral. I thought nothing of it and just put it back into drive. When I did that I believe I heard a loud thud and then my cars front end dipped down and the front tires...
