    Trans slipping 2-3 shift

    Ok, little clarification here. I think I read this somewhere before. My speedo cable is broken, will this affect the trans and the way it shifts? I can't tell if it is slipping or not. Thanks

    I have just the downpipe off of my car and its mostly stock, not too bad, I can really hear the turbo now and spools up alot faster! I really love it, and it is still quieter than some of the V8's and pickup trucks running around!

    Anybody use 1A Auto gas tank?

    Bought one several weeks ago, installed it just the way it came. I did not use the rubber straps under the metal ones. Cleaned up the look alot.

    Tapping noise and stalling issue

    X2 on the crank sensor!! Had a chattering noise also and thought it was the turbo! With the rough running then not running, i found out my crank sensor was rubbing on the crank pulley, I backed it off and set it! Car runs great now, no longer stalling and the noise is now gone! Hope this helps!

Fuel pressure was only at 23Lbs, we seem to think that the booster pump on the car from the previous owner might be...

    No Scanmaster yet, still working on that. Maf is old, crank sensor and cam sensor are also old. I am guessing that will be the best place to start. Thanks.
