    Fast XFI / C-Com WP on Android

    Has anybody been able to successfully run XFI on an Android device? I've been reading this morning about it and watching some youtube videos about running windows programs in general on Android but the apps on the play store all seam sketchy.

    So last year racing on my 7 year old wore out drag radials I was having traction trouble. So I installed the HR rear bar and new clutch discs from a reputable vendor. Raced earlier in the year and just turned it down to keep the tires under it. Yesterday I went to the track with new slicks on it...

    Trans cooler mounting advice

    Decided to amp up my trans cooling. Bought the Derale 13900. Read a lot about mounting locations but really think I’ve only got 2. Don’t really want to mount in the rear or mid. That leaves front DS or PS as I’ve got a SLIC and an engine oil cooler in the middle. I’d like to put it on the PS...

    Reached a crossroads with the GN.

    I purchased my 87 GN in February of 1996. It was 100% original and had 125,000 kms on it. I drove it for a few years and installed the usual bolt on stuff as I could afford it and the wife would allow. A number of years ago I was finally in a position to spend some money on it. Had it repainted...

    Trans brake Issues

    Had trans brake issues this summer (electric brake in a 200R4). It wouldn't always hold, it would typically roll a few feet then lock. If I pushed the button a couple times it would usually lock so after checking the wiring I figured it was the solenoid. I replaced the solenoid and same result...

    Trans Brake Switch and Creep to A13 - But already used?

    I've been doing some reading on the subject over on CPGN. My creep isn't working right yet and have read that using A13 as a ground source for the switches has helped fix some issues. However it appears A13 is being used, or at least there's a wire leading to the kick panel in my GN. I doubt I...

    Slick vs Drag Radial vs MT Pro Bracket Radial

    Haven't been to the track much over the last few years but have been running MT ET Street radials. So they're likely 5-7 years old?? They've always been inside and look good but wondered if they're drying out? Have started doing some more racing this year on a new track nearby and having...

    Trans temp through XFI

    Would like to log trans temp through XFI to keep an eye on it but not add another gauge in the car. I've searched here and CPG and have gotten mixed reports. I'm sure somebody must be doing it? Would like to use a sensor or transducer to keep it low budget. Saw this on CPG Nation. But...

    Playing with setting up my alky transducer with XFI (XFI Newbie) and in the process had hit the test button a few times with engine off.

    Shifting Problems

    Thought I'd better start a new thread looking for help. I've got shifting issues. Rebuilt trans from reputable builder. No WOT shift at all, hits rev limiter and that's it. It also felt like it was shifting early - like I accidentally put in a CVT. Checked the governor and the spring is...

    Speedo Gears - Governor

    Could the speedo drive gear have an affect on the governor and shift points? Need to do more testing, but rebuilt new to me trans went in. At full TV no shift at WOT, backed off a click and shifts too early? I noticed the speedo is fast so I need to see what's in there for gears and...

    80 Sport Coupe trouble - see video

    The father son project is so so close... But it's fighting us :mad: As the video will show the car starts right up, runs fine until it warms up - then dies. I did try holding the revs up and it wouldn't quit. When it does die, it will start up but won't run very well and die again. Let it...

    Top Turbo Buick Shops from the inside out?

    I've had some turbo work done by Bison's Performance, and I'm very happy with it. And you hear nothing but great things about what he does with Turbo Buicks. Then there's Hartline's and Cotton's Performance which again I've heard lots of good things. However these guys are on the East Coast...

    Transmission Speedo Leak - Different than my GN

    Working on the father son project yesterday. The trans is leaking and I thought it is coming from the speedo cable drive. So I thought we could just pull the cable off, pop out the bolt and pull the speedo gear bullet out and change the o-rings. However after cleaning off 35 years of crud I...

    Ignition Module Problems?

    I've be been reading this afternoon on ignition module problems. My car popped a couple times under boost and started to miss at low throttle when hot. So I pulled the coil and ignition module apart and found a crack in the yellow goop. Assumed that the 28 year old module crapped out so...

    Transmission shift issues and high line pressure?

    I have a 2004R with very few miles on it. When I installed it I verified the throttle valve measurements and TV cable adjustment. But the 1-2 shift doesn't feel right. So I checked the line pressures and got the following. Pressures taken at 1500 rpm. No TV: P=100, R=170, N=100, OD=100...
