    If your car is already starting alright is it necessary to go through the routine of finding tdc and then 25 degrees atdc and so on to set the cam sensor? Or can you just hook up the Casper's tool and set it? Thanks, Tim.

    Bad LS 1 Maf???

    At 13 lbs of boost my AF reading is only 239. Is this normal? Do you have to run at least 15 lbs of boost to max it out to 255? How can you tell if an LS 1 maf is going bad? Thanks.

    Thrasher Chips and 02 sensors?

    I understand that you can run a thrasher chip with race gas and disconnect the 02 sensor. With it disconnected will the race gas ruin the sensor? If so, do you have to take out the sensor and replace it with something? What do most people use for the replacement? Thanks.
