    Gutted Cat

    New fuel pump and filter installed last year. Was just driving along and all was good. Layed into it after about an hour of driving and all of a sudden fuel psi was dropping to 25 as soon as boost would come up. I'm thinking regulator crapped out. It's about 15 years old. Any thoughts?

    02 Bonneville SSEI

    Not a tech question. Just wanted to tell about my rainbow unicorn I found. 02 Bonneville SSEI with 44,000 on the clock! Been looking for one for a long time. Getting harder and harder every day to find one. I have the SLE (daily driver) and another SSEI parts car, so this one will make 3...

    T-bolt clamps

    3" won't slide over the coupling and the next size up ends up with a mile of thread sticking out. What's the deal here? Blew my up-pipe off. Should have stayed with the damn hose clamps. Any helpful input.

    Tire height change from 26" to 28"

    With stock gearing and stock trans keeping it in D, at what point (mph wise) do most of you need to change tire height to avoid excessive rpms in the 1/4 mile? My next question is how much speed is gained on average when switching from a 26" tall tire to a 28" tall tire? I'm thinking a change...

    killed a pony

    Spanked a fox body mustang over the weekend. Was peddling it the whole time. He stayed behind to talk to the guy with flashing red and blue lights. Someone had a bad night.

    Proper response to "Nice Monte"

    I'm sure everyone here has heard this before. I'm starting to wonder if I should continue to educate these clueless people or just say "Thanks". Maybe it is best to keep people uninformed.

    New best without trying hard

    Decided to run the car last night with the new combo. 0 boost launch on BFG radial T/A's netted a 2.0 60'. 20 psi of boost. 12.5 @ 109 with 10.5 AFR. I don't want to push the car to the limits as I enjoy car cruises and shows more than beating the crap out of my car on track nights. Not...

    Finally back up and running great!

    Just wanted to give a huge thank you to everyone who contributed to getting this monster back on the road after 3 years....especially David Husek for building a kick-ass engine. BFG Radial ta's are completely useless now even with new tread. This car has never been this fast in the 18 years...

    TPS setting

    Car is running rich, so decided to adjust the TPS sensor to see if it fixes the problem. My plan was to change the oil first before starting it up since the oil smells like fuel. The only thing is, according to what I've researched, I need to warm the engine up to set iac before setting the...

    Chasing electrical problems

    I have a problem with my car running too rich. It could be one problem or a few problems. Do you guys start by replacing as many (easily replaceable) things as you can and hope one of them fixed it? My concern is if I just replace one thing at a time and check to see if it fixed it and it...

    plx wideband o2 abuse

    Had a new o2 in the car when I first fired it after a rebuild. Had plug wires wrong when I started it and ran for a few minutes before shutting it off. Also had the cam sensor 180 out. My question is, what are the chances my new wideband is toast now? Thanks, Tim

    TT6.1 chip users

    Can someone with their wideband tracking turned off send me a screenshot of the block grid from the powerlogger? I am confusing the adjustable parameters with the afr settings and am afraid to run my car until I figure this out. Where do I select the afr settings? In the 6.1 directions, it...

    Is it a direct swap? The ssei is a 2000 and the sle is a 2001. Just bought the ssei with a blown head gasket for $200 to use as a parts car.

    Powerlogger drivers

    I click on the drivers folder and I get this. Which one is for xp? When I plug in the usb to my laptop it doesn't do anything. What am I doing wrong? So far nothing is working right with this pos. I'm ready to start a big bonfire.

    Disabling wideband on 6.1 chip

    How do I do it. Directions say set parameters 1,2,&3 to 9.9 or lower. With blm set on 140, it is +9.7 in fueling. I think I'm missing something. 9.9 what?

    cam sensor

    If I installed it 180 out, do I need to remove it completely or just turn it? I have the caspers tool on the way. Thanks, Tim

    cam sensor set right?

    Car ran good at idle but when I go to give it gas while in gear it runs really rough and has black smoke. Does this sound like a cam sensor out of adjustment? Thanks, Tim
