Extended gas pedal helps a lot. I had them in my v6 and they helped quite a bit.

You could try rolling your right foot over off the brake pedal to blip the throttle. Definitely get the extended pedal that's mentioned above though I could definitely see that helping a ton since the pedal is all the way next to the trans tunnel.

2 totally different genres. Way more bang for your buck at TB, but Chipotle tastes better......until you get E. Coli

Chipotle for sure but a Taco Bell/KFC combo I would have to think about lol

I think my car is acting funny because of a bad tank of gas. At WOT it's fine, at idle it's fine but accelerating with the flow of traffic it kinda surges. The ignition advance/timing, injector cycle, fuel rail pressure and oil pressure are normal readings. Calculated HP changes with the surging.

Might seem like an odd question but did you get the tune checked with the TB? Mine did that same thing, I didn't check out any data logging though but the only times it would surge was normal speeds in traffic. My surging was probably more noticeable because of my vararam intake which surged before the tune and was just barely noticeable before the TB

I'm still on the factory tune. The car has run great for about 1000 miles with all my current mods. Left for vacation for a week, came back, drove it about 100 miles over the weekend and then changed the oil and after that I noticed it was acting funny.

That's really weird then, oil isn't overfilled is it? Did you try cleaning the MAF?

I now have these installed. Wow, these guys are bigger than they 'appear' to be.

Getting my rear tires mounted today, will pick them up after work.

When I took them off yesterday, I was actually wearing through the steel belts on the inner part of the tire.

I believe the worn bushings actually threw the alignment out enough to wear it on the inner parts of the tire a little more. No way it was that much out of alignment (I hope). Anyway, the new parts required a new alignment, so I will keep an eye on that better.

Should help keep it straight now.

Nice! I've been experiencing a lot of extra vibration, and a more harsh ride lately. I know I need new rears, I need new brake pads so I am aware of that. But under moderate breaking the front end vibrates a lot. Any ideas?

could be the pads, or rotors.... or both. is the vibrations coming from the front, or some shaking in the rear?
