    WTB: Stock GN wheels with drag slicks or radials

    I am looking for a set up GN wheels to put slicks or drag radials on. Best case, they already have reasonable sized slicks / drag radials on them as I would like to buy the wheels/slicks together. The wheels don't need to be perfect since they will just be for the track. Looking for local...

    Turbo Rebuild Shops in Michigan?

    I need to have my TA49 rebuilt. I know about the usual players (Gpop, Limit), but is there a shop around Metro Detroit? I'd like to walk it in and walk it out. I hate to ship my stuff 1/2 across the country each way if I don't have to. Anyone? Thanks.

    Installed TA49 and Injectors - now motor smoking

    I purchased a lightly used TA49 (still looked new) and 42# injectors for my 87 GN along with a new Turbo Tweak chip. I finally got around to installing this combo and the car runs great, but it smokes. I notice it at idle mostly. It also smells. It did not smoke or smell before the...

    Newby TA49 elbow question

    I bought a used ta49 turbo and it came to me with no elbow. I read on Kirbans site that you are supposed to re-use the stock elbow so I tried to do that. When I was bolting them up I noticed that the inside of the TA49 does not really match the inside of the stock elbow. Is this the way...

    Cheapest place to get a TA49 turbo?

    I am planning to upgrade to a TA49 turbo. I have been shopping and am surprised at how expensive they seem to be. I assumed they were "old tech" so they would be reasonable. I'd appreciate any input on where to purchase. The TE44 at Gbodyparts looks to still be on sale at about $600 plus...

    Yet another Power Antenna Question - Thread

    My power antenna only goes up about 1/2 way. It goes back down completely and works great other than only going up 1/2 way. Can I fix this by buying the cable or mast that are carried by some vendors? I don't think the cable is broken considering it still works, just not all the way...

    I was given 27x10.5x15 slicks - What wheel needed for no rub? Stock?

    I was given a set of Hoosier 27x10.5x15 slicks unmounted. I do not want to roll fenders or notch the frame. Can I mount these on stock rims without rubbing? If not, what rim and back space do you recommend? Just want inexpensive rims for the track. I know these slick questions have been...

    TTA - T Top Roof Shades

    When I bought my car last year it came with T Top roof shades in a box in the trunk. How can I tell if they are original? Based on the flat, thin old looking box I would guess that they are. I want to sell them, but don't want to misrepresent them being original. The box has a sticker on...

    K&N users - How did you install Grumpy style pipe?

    To those of you using a K&N cone style filter, how did you install it? Where did you put the MAF sensor and the inlet temp sensor? I bought a MAF pipe from Grumpy and thought the install would be very intuitive. Do you just mount the MAF sensor at the end of the pipe, then add another small...

    My TTA started bucking at light throttle on the highway. Some of the bucks were pretty violent. After a couple of back bucks, the SES light came on and my Scanmaster showed a code 41. My searching on the forum generally shows 3 solutions to code 41: 1) cam sensor 2) ignition module 3)...
