Took my first topless ride today, it will be a week before I lose this smile

[Sinner860]

What a beautiful day of driving! Anyone else get out there today?

[xtreme2s]

I did. And even ordered up me some rims and big tires from CCW. They estimated about two/three weeks for them to arrive

My high flows should be in tomorrow! They just departed Davenport about 3 hours ago. So excited to get these installed. Since I haven't driven or started my car in a long time I am not sure if I will notice a difference in the sound or performance. I may have to start it up and listen to the stock and then listen to it after the high flows are put in place. From my understanding is that it is supposed to increase hp by 15 to 20 not sure what it will be for torque. Of course I am always skeptical until I see before and after numbers on a dyno.

Must have been in the air, I ordered new rims and tires too, hopefully they get here Monday.

I have the weekend of the 21st of April off so I may go to that car show. May even do the dyno for 60 dollars too.

Anybody else thinking of going?

[toesuf94]

Let the GRINCH RUN!!! Yay! Just in time for St. Patrick's Day!

The show on the 21st could be fun. Seems kind of thrown together though...'dash plaques to the first'...First what?

The dyno is tempting-ish.

[xtreme2s]

other concern on doing dyno is on computor, its not understanding why rear wheels spinning like hell yet front are not. some codes will appear, and have been told they "should reset" -but then maybe.....

[toesuf94]

The computer was not bothered when my car was run on a dyno when new. I just don't know if I want to run my car or not. I like it just fine...and knowing the EXACT number might make me say..."Hmmm...if I do THIS then it will be XXX at the wheels!" That could be an expensive Hmmmm.

[xtreme2s]

I would run my thru the dyno to compare with the dyno sheet I have from Livernois when car was modded. Since these cars have rev limiters, and I have hit mine twice since my car pulls so hard, that I'd assume nothing should be damaging on dyno. I have hit my rev limit when I was showing off. It happened in 1st/2nd gear and just hit! Scared the crap out of me when it shut down then restored/return back

Another thread on doing dyno's, many stating they ran dyno at an event and their comptutor coded up on them. That where I was basing my info. I was going to email Livernois for opinion on hammering it on a dyno to be safe

Today is a bittersweet day. I brought my DD into McGraths because I've been having this issue where my car just won't start at random times. As in absolutely nothing but lights and radio turn on...no other noises and the battery is brand new Interstate. Techs said they couldn't identify the problem and I should bring it back when it acts up so they can recreate the problem...Right, I will be bringing it in on a mother f-ing tow truck. Then I got a break fluid flush. I get a call back telling me I have more leaks besides the tranny coolant line and the oil pan gasket (which I will do myself). Now my coolant resevoir tank is leaking and my power steering pressure line is leaking too! So this monday I am bringing it in to get the last two things fixed. Now on to the SWEET news, my Solo High Flow cats came in and I so want to get them on ASAP!
