    Tune or Not to Tune...That seems to be the real question

    I tune my 01 gtp, I have gained/lossed .2-.5 in the 1/4 mile just by messing with tunes. I have also seen knock retard as high as 8-10 and have been able to reduce it to 0. A tuner has always been the best mod for a car but nobody wants to fork up the cash right away, until later they realize...

    Thinking about getting a V8 what shoull I know?

    Nice find! The retail value on my car is $6,000+. I have a hard time trying to sell it for $4k. On the other hand I kind of want to keep it around, lol, I listed it once and it didn't sell right away, so then kept it stored in our shed since... Plus, I just put new alternator, battery...

    I'm not exactly sure what you mean by run out of steam... but the m90 is a good s/c for this application. The m112 will produce a LOT more boost which he probably doesnt need for this high compression application. The m112 is more efficient at creating a lot of boost, but the m90 should work...

    Do you see any kr with that setup? Referring to different compression and cylinder #'s, The gtp's with the more efficient m90's produce about 6 psi stock, on the 3.8 v6. At 9 psi+ we start to see knock, and a lot of it. To get a 3.4" pulley on ours takes a cai, colder plugs, ported exhaust...

    98 wont blow cold anymore

    my car has been doing the same thing, but It will blow ice cold air then it hits the desired temp, then it never kicks back on... so I shut off the a/c for 10 secs and turn it back on and its ice cold again... sometimes I will drive for an hour and it never shuts off, then all of a sudden it...

    Rods and ticking sound

    Yeah, they charged me $488 for inner tie rods and alignment. I'm probably not going back to them except for a free rotation with the tires I bought from them. Aside from that....wow....I probably should have taken a video of my car before and after because those tie rods really must have...

    Rods and ticking sound

    Does anybody have an idea how difficult it can be to replace 2 inner tie rods? I just got the outer 2 replaced for $175 and now a different shop is telling me its gonna take them 5 hours of labor to do the INNER tie rods for a whopping 300 labor plus 110 for parts. Then an alignment after that...
