I dunno. I have no mufflers or cats. Deleted the stock resonators and put in a magnaflow resonated X pipe. I think the tone would change, but since he has mufflers... rasp probably wouldn't be an...

Can you post the actual TSB? Google didn't show anything. I want to know how the hell an oil pump puts oil into the brake booster.

Unplug one, it'll throw a code and you'll know which side it is. You should be able to get to the connector from the engine bay. Good reason to get a code scanner if you don't already have one. I...

Nope. Don't have a catch can, don't need one. DI has been around for awhile, was only a problem until average Joe started caring about valves.

Nah. One of the biggest non-issues I've ever seen. Point is, I don't see the point in spending hundreds of dollars on 'clean side' catch cans.

This is what a throttle body looks like after 25k of highway miles and daily full throttle pulls. No catch can. Intake tube wasn't even oily. The space behind the throttle body for catching garbage...

What's with all the fear of washing carbon down into your cylinder? Haven't you ever seen the top of a piston? Carbon breaks off of the top of them all the time, and you'd never know it otherwise.

It is. I drove around completely straight piped for months before I did it, had enough.

A Subaru BRZ revved at me the other day. I don't think he expected my cars violent response.

Highest you can get in Alaska is 90 octane, that's what I use. I'm fairly certain these engines will just retard timing for anything less than 91 octane to avoid pinging and knocking. The computers...

My car had all kinds of heat shield noises before I deleted the cats. They are bolt on heat shields IIRC, might have had one loosen.

My car does this when giving it throttle going uphill at too low of an RPM. Its not tuned.

I average 27mpg. 65mph, two hours a day.

Its 2.5 inch pipe to the stock H pipe, then 2.25 out the back of the H pipe to the mufflers. You'd be good to go starting from the cats with 2.5 inch pipe.

I don't understand their reasoning behind advertising it as a street/strip car that the NHRA has already banned. All you can do with it is brag at a local track.

There's no oil pressure behind the timing cover. Its all oil draining back out of the heads. Sounds like it just leaked because shit happens.

I don't think its worth 400$. Its a straight tube with a boot on one end and an air filter on the other. That's why I bought a Spectre CAI, they're priced accordingly.
