    removing air pump and diverter valves on 96 cobra

    Just remove them and get a tune to turn off the CEL. I removed mine long ago along with the EGR crap and there was NO difference in fuel mileage.

    It's official... the T-45 DOES really blow. Check this out.

    You don't need to hook up the reverse lockout. Just remove the solenoid (brass colored piece) from the aluminum mount and install a .100" thick washer as a spacer. Then reinstall the brass piece with the spacer between it and mount body. Then you have essentially disabled the solenoid, but...

    Tire size

    I agree that just because they fit, doesn't mean that they are safe. I was just making the point that they do fit. I personally would stick with what the tire manufacturer suggests.

    Tire size

    You can easily stretch a 245 over a 10.5" wheel. I have done it before on a standard tire change machine with little issues at all. I don't recommend it as it exceeds the recommended width by 1.5". I have done a 195 over a 9" wheel before for a VW guy. They are stretched pretty good, but no...
