Vitesse Throttle Controller - LFX - 19A

I have decided to take the Throttle Controller off the Camaro.

In good working order.

Make a reasonable offer (to be paid via PayPal) via PM. These still go for $179 new from Vitesse.

It had oil on the stick cold prior to the change, but it wasn't 6 quarts full (when I dumped it back into a 5 quart bottle) if that makes sense.

I should have changed it when I bought it (5600...

Most oils meet the "spec" nowadays anyway, so what you say makes sense.The idea it to keep in a while, so Full Synthetic is probably a good idea.

2013 LS - Oil Change & a question about winterizing

It's coming time to change the oil in the V6. Not to start a war over oil, but in "13 the recommendation was Synthetic Blend. Straight Synthetic isn't always better (in non turbo Suburas - of which I...

That's good to know. So if 35% needs to be filtered through, you can tint the windows up to 65%?

Would never get anywhere near that anyway.

Self tinting side windows - how difficult?

Hey all,

Thinking at some point I'd like to tint the side windows to something a little darker (will have to look at what MA law allows, but not thinking anything crazy).

I've seen self tint...

That explains it. If I drive shorter distances (or stall for whatever reason), the trip will "drop" a few miles, then recover a little.

I'm thinking it is, or I just ran more highway last week.

I don't typically push 75 on the highway unless I'm in a hurry.

Will continue and see. :)

My thought as well.

I like the idea of a wireless one for obvious reasons (not tearing the car apart). Just was curious if anyone had ever gone that route. Not thinking so.

Ahaha!! 4 tenths/gallon is nothing, but maybe it illustrates a point. If it isn't any peppier, and there isn't any damage with lower octane (and you are ok with it), higher octane doesn't make sense....
