    RJC PCV Experience

    I just wanted to make a quick post to let the members know my recent findings with my RJC PCV valve. It had been on the car when I bought it last year and I noticed straight away on my first few drives with the car that the idle BLM was at 142, but would come down quickly once moving off idle...

    60 lb Injectors

    Just a quick question...thinking about going from 42 to 60 lb injectors and was curious if that would raise the fuel rail location. The 60 lb’ers look a little taller than the 42s and it seems like my fuel rail is already pretty close to the vacuum lines going down to the rear of the engine...

    T&T from this past Friday - first time down the track with this car

    I went to the T&T as it was a last minute thing for a friend of ours that is moving away next week. Weather was not ideal for good numbers, but only day it wasn't scheduled for rain this weekend either. I was happy with the car for the weather conditions (76 degrees, felt like 90% humidity...

    Once again I sent my radio out to Tony Barlos to have it gone through and this time had the aux input added to the face of the radio.
