Re: DYNO DAY! vids included

Not trying to be a dink here but 107mph at 6,000 rpm assuming stock 27" tall tires and factory 2.92 rear end says 1.53 ratio in trans = 3rd gear. Thats a pretty low gear to be running the dyno. Probably why the hp seems higher than expected. Had they run it in 4th at 1.15 ratio the hp would hav...

Re: DYNO DAY! vids included

For everyone else... dont watch the first video, just backing in the shop.

Second, 100% stock? E85 or 87?

Those are some nice numbers for a stock car.

Also what gear did it get run in? 4th or 5th?

Re: smaller battery or delete

My car has had both stock ones replaced with interstste ones back in 2016, so they only got 4 years out of the stock ones in tx heat. Both of them have decent output now but i do notice that the motor doesnt turn over real strong. Kinda sounds like a stock starter on a high compression motor.

Re: New Tire time- Nokian ZLINE A/S ?

From what i remember the nokian brand is a sub. Of michelin. Good tires without the expensive name on the sidewall.

Hopefully someone has some feedback, otherwise you will have to let us know.

Re: Blend door actuators

I have great heat on pass side and only cool air on the driver side. And changing the modes it moves around but wont make driver side temps change.

Blend door actuators

Has anybody had to replace the blend door actuators? Can it be done without removing the whole dash? The parts dept pic looks like it is centered in the dash behind the radio.

Re: Front end clunk: Steering rack or control arm poly bushi

I was able to narrow mine down to the control arm bushings by having my wife operate the car while i watched on a creeper next to each front wheel. With her foot on the brake go from reverse to drive, and when the car pushed forward and backward with the brake applied I could watch the tire rock bac...

Mine have a decent amount of screws holding them in, like 8 or 10 screws.
