    CRazy TPS Voltage

    No matter what I do, my TPS reads 5.00 volts and stays in that area. I've tried different and new ones and still the same result. Is there something funky with my computer? Also, just cruising in 3rd gear at about 35, the car lunges back and forth. It has a new IAC. I don't know what to do...

    I've been trying to figure out why my car has been running like crap. Went and checked the timing today. It was at 15 degrees (spout connector unplugged). When revving it, it just stays at 15 degrees and is not advancing. What could be wrong?

    Argh....Stupid Idle issue

    Ok, I went through the surging idle checklist. I've tried everything. On a cold start, the car starts up fine and then idles down after a couple of minutes. On a hot start, the car won't start if I don't push the gas pedal down. Then when it does start, the idle jumps between about 600 rpm...

    What should I do about a transmission?

    I've destroyed by 3rd World Class T5. I can't keep doing this. The car is making 315 hp and 330 ft/lbs of torque to the rear wheels. I'm going to keep it manual, so what should I put in it? G Force T5? Tremec TKO500 or 600? I can't spend a ton of money on it either, for example, $2500 is...

    I have the BBK fenderwell CAI without the rubber hoses for attaching it to the throttle body and the MAF meter. Is there anywhere to buy these or should I just go get some hose and make it work?

    Weird Problem...I need some help...

    Ok, if I'm going down the road in 4th or 5th gear (probably around 50 mph) the car will start to jump some and act like i'm letting off and on the gas. It finally irritated me enough to where i pushed the gas to the floor while it was doing it. Nothing happened at all. Did rev up or anything...

    Speedometer quit working....

    So I was driving down the road and looked down to see that I was in 5th gear at about 3k rpm and going 0 mph, ha. The cable is in the back of the cluster, the gear is on the end of the speed sensor and not stripped. I stuck my finger into the hole of the tranny for the speed sensor and didn't...

    Computer and Tuning Question

    So my car would not fire at all on the #8 cylinder. I did a million thinkgs to try to fix it and what ended up working was putting another computer in it. It runs pretty good on the new computer I put in it (its an A9L, the one I had in it when it was not running right was an A9L also) but it...
