I decided to drive the car to work this morning, what a mistake.Some a$$ decided it would be a good idea to run me into a curb. We were traveling down Telge rd doing 40-45mph, we were side by side. He pulled into my lane (I was in the right, him in the left), I honked at him and we looked...
I'm curious if anyone has noticed the need to change heat ranges based on ambient temperatures?My issue:I've been using the 6's since the car hit the ground Dec. 05 without any issues. Now in Houston the ambient temps have gone to regularly being in the high 90's+ and the car cruises...
I've gone through 2 OEM PCV (read boost leak) valves in 1500 miles since the car came off jack stands December 05. I'm tired of buying and replacing them even though they are not that expensive. I was going to pull the nipple out of the intake and put a 1/8 BSPT plug in that location and use the...
I recently got my fuel system in line and could not resist the urge to finally do a pull on it, 14psi wg spring pressure for now. I had performed a boost leak test earlier and could hold 25psi, but evidently the volume of air from the turbo blew out the old tb shaft seals. Under boost I heard a...

1) is there anything special or different that i need to be looking for on the...

finally christmas is over. don't get me wrong, i like christmas (especially this year as i get to upgrade the toy), but i have been waiting since the end of september (when the factory turbo took a dump) to get to work on this thing. the car is going to get a pretty major set of upgrades in the...
