I keep blowing the 10 amp ECM/SOL fuse that feeds one of the two brake switches followed by the engine compartment solenoids (wastegate, canister, EVRV and AC clutch). When disconnecting the three wire pink/blk pink/blk purple connector from the vacuum release valve on the brake pedal, the fuse...

It was cold (45 deg F), clear with no wind at Houston Raceway Park tonight. With my RA100 chip, 20 psi boost and 104 unleaded the GN went 11.77 @ 113 mph. 60' time was 1.725 with a zero psi boost launch to keep the nitto's from spinning. Never gone this fast before.

Does anyone have the phone number for Musclecar Salvage? Their web site does not appear to be working.

The T is cutting out at heavy acceleration. It happened two times under WOT. There is no knock on the Scanmaster. The second time it threw 4 codes: 21, 22, 13, and 42. The service engine light came on. Code 42 is C.C. coil ignition. I immediately back off the throttle and everything seems...

The best time in the T with the TE44 turbo and the .63 Precision exhaust was 12.98 @ 103 mph (19 psi boost, 4 psi launch, race gas and Red's 100 octane chip). The car had turbo lag. I switched to the .63 Garrett housing (RA recommendation) and the lag went away. In hotter weather with the...

I just replaced my fuel pump on the T with an XP unit. Fuel pressure static is 42 psig. Fuel pressure only goes to 50 psig under 16 psi of boost. Swapped gauges with one a friend of mine has and everything is 2 psi lower (40 psig static and 48 psig under boost). I was told the FP should go...

I having trouble with the GN. The IAC reading on the scanmaster spiked to over 100 while at idle causing the car to stall. Pulled, cleaned and reset the IAC and TPS and the car drove OK for a while. Then it went up to over 100 again causing the car to run rough and stall. Replaced the IAC...

The GN died under heavy acceleration. I hooked up direct scan for the first time to observe performance. At 51 mph and 4700 rpm in 2nd gear a trouble code appeared which was 24, vehicle speed sensor. At 80 mph and 4600 rpm in 3rd gear the mph dropped to 0 in the next frame and three trouble...

I replaced valve springs on the T last week with Comp Cams 980's. The car seems to shift at a higher rpm at WOT. I've seen 5,100 rpm on the Scanmaster at the 2nd-3rd shift which is higher than before the new springs. I thought shift rpm was controlled by throttle position and TV cable...

I've always wondered why my GN only takes 4 3/4 quarts of oil on an oil change with the PF52 filter versus 5 3/4 quarts for the T. I always warm the engine up and remove the oil filter first before dropping the oil pan plug. Both dipsticks are identical. Same length, same part number, and I...

I'm going to have the transmission on the GN rebuilt next week and take the opportunity to replace the torque converter. One option is to install a 2800 reworked D5 converter or pay more for a 3200 Vigilante converter. I was told the 3200 stall will not impact the driveability too much on the...

While checking the fuel pressure on the GN, I noticed that the fuel rail does not hold any pressure when the key is turned off. Secondly, my O2 readings run in the low range (.71 to .75) even though the fuel pressure is set at 46 psi with the line off (chip maker recommendation is 42 psi with...

Are 42.5# injectors a reasonable choice to go with a basically stock car with the stock turbo and intercooler. I'd like to upgrade the injectors on my GN and these injectors are on sale. My first thought was to use the 868 injectors that I recently installed on the T, but the 42.5# injectors...

I attempted to install a new turn stalk this evening. Tied a fishing line to the wire and pulled it up through the column. Unfortunately, the line broke. How does one push the wire on the new stalk back through inside the column. I'm stumped. Would prefer not to leave the wire external to...

I just purchased and installed a set of 36# injectors. They are off white in color and thinner than the stock ones. Are these injectors Delphi Multec 2?
