    Life long dream finally realized, but at a price.

    Two weeks ago, I finally achieved the dream that I've been fantasizing about since I was about 9 years old. I'm now a proud owner of a 2008 Corvette C6. Velocity Yellow with the 2LT package, including the NPP exhaust for 436 hp/428 ft lbs. of torque. However, now faced with having to take two...

    NSA alternators....heard of 'em?

    First off, my apologies if this doesn't belong here. Anyway, my alternator is slowly dying, and I'm looking for a new one. NSA has alternators with NO remanufactured parts which is what I'm looking for. Also, they all rate at 90 amps. So, anyone buy one from NSA? Any inputs or other advice?

    5th gear acting as if I'm spinning tires....read for more info please.

    I'm on my way home from work yesterday, and I decided to punch it in 5th gear. Long story short, when I hit 15+psi, my boost shoots straight to 20(not like the gradual climb) And my revs shoot high, but the car doesn't move to complement the increase, as if I lost traction or something. The...

    Not sure about keeping current turbo. Can someone help out?

    Almost two months ago, I had my car dyno tuned at extreme motorsports. Long story short, I netted 296.8whp, and 282.5 ft lbs/tq @ a very weak 12psi. :)I will now list the relevant(what I believe to be relevant that is)mods before I ask my most important questions.Non BB PTE 50...

    Aeromotive AFPR with pushlok install(pics)

    Hey guys, I just installed my aeromotive FPR kit from Slowboy with the pushlok install kit(minus teflon tape). Other than minor mistakes on my part WTF, every thing was easier than I could have ever imagined. The pushlok kit is pretty much the same as the SS kit, with the exception that you...

    Color code?

    For Sarronno Red. I'm finally done procrastinating, and will finally get my front bumper repainted. I for some reason remember the color code being found somewhere on the car, but I'm in Florida, and the car is in VA, so I wouldn't be able to look until tomorrow.....

    'Dancing' EGT gauge needle.

    It started happening over the last few days. When I start the car first thing in the AM to head to work, it wants to behave as advertised. However, I asy that maybe after the first 10 minutes of running, it starts acting all haywire. Also, sometimes when I turn my headlamps on, the needle...

    No display on SAFC.....

    From one prob to the next....After I got rid of my voltage issue, I decided to tackle my only other issue-erratic display from my SAFC. It still worked, but I sometimes couldn't see anything. If I wanted to see the display, I would have to put a little pressure on it.Anyway, I opened it up...

    Surging voltage issues from altenator

    Okay, well this problem has been going on for a while now. I'll get in to start my car, and it takes a while for my alt to "warm up" to 13.9 v. Whenever I come to a stop, it'll drop to 11.8. I rev to 1.5, after a while it goes back up to 13.9. This happens all the time, especially at night...

    Signs your turbo is failing......

    It's been a very long time since I've done anything to this car, and it's mainly due to either always working or being out of town.Today however I did notice that my car not only has the same hard pull as I remember, but when my turbo spools, the pitch is at a higher tone than I remember. I...

    Just got my logger. What should I focus on the most?

    I am thinking: LTFT STFT1+2 Ignition timing Airflow rate Coolant temp 02Anything I should add? Remove? Also, what psi would be a good startitng point?(SCM 61 with supporting mods). Should I go 0 across the board on my safc, and tune from there? sorry for all the ?s :p

    Help me make a choice

    I'm trying to decide which tuning tool I should get, as I already have a SAFC and MAFT. Should I get a simple logger, or shell out the big cash for a DSMlink? I've finally gotten to that point to where I can't truly get any further without REAL tuning, and need some help in choosing.

    Stick pops out of fifth......but

    It just started happening yesterday on my way to Baltimore. But it only happens when I apply more that 60-70% throttle. Also, if I set the cruise control it doesn't happens. Anyone know of some kind of shifter cable fix, or some other easy fix to this?

    weird, possibly serious electrical problems

    I've had my alternator checked, and it was good. My battery was good, but I opted for a red optima battery anyway. The prob is my car is dead-all the time(even before I switch to the optima). If I jump it, it runs just fine until I turn the car off. Immediately after the car shuts off, it's...

    Those with slicks, come and help me out for a sec.

    What's the best "slicks" set up? i don't really have much knowledge about this subject. But after all that I have done, it's either a AWD-RWD conversion or slicks. And for now slicks are the cheapest way to go.For all intensive purposes, Stages I and II are complete.

    motor mounts(help)

    new tranny in.....weird problems!!!

    Before I get into this, the reason for the tranny was because I wheel hopped so bad that I busted my spider gears straight through my transmission:cry: . I had a rebuilt one installed this past weekend. However, I'm experiencing the following:1)Car oscillates between 1-1.5k 2)I hear...
