    PHP Intake Spacer Dyno Results

    A wave that reaches the upper plenum, will reach the MAF. Mach 1's have a little box on their intake tube that they all call a "silencer". They dont know wtf they're talking about. Its an external plenum that absorbs reversion pulses so they cant disturb MAF readings. Subaru and many other car...

    PHP Intake Spacer Dyno Results

    Ive always figured this mod is pointless. The upper chamber is just a sub-plenum that buffers reversion. A side effect is that it buffers pulses before they can reach the MAF. :notnice:

    Installed March's new Fluiddamper underdrives

    SOTP, I definetely felt a torque increase. But, thats not why I'm writing about it. Since day 1, Ive always had what felt like an internal engine imbalance. Even with the Steeda underdrives I used to have, my engine would vibrate at about 2300 rpm when parked in neutral. Ive read about a few...

    which X pipe for 99 cobra?

    Dr. Gas all the way. Sounds bad ass with a magnaflow CB, and the gains are higher than any other.

    Help! Stuck CD

    Hold the eject button down. It will come out if you hold it long enough...like 20 seconds. It seems to be an emergency eject feature.

    has anyone heard anything about or seen the new ceramic coated mac 4v longtubes?

    Those SLP's are top notch! I had macs for a long time, and they didnt do **** to my engine. I flushed them and cleaned them thoroughly before the install. Ive argued this till I was blue in the face. It's NOT from oil pulling past the seals! Oil doesnt cause cylinder wall scoring. Period. They...

    99/01 cobra intake spacer?

    I thought of machining one of these like 4 years ago, but I didnt believe it would do much. How do you bolt up the EGR tube after that spacer is on? Doesnt seem like it would reach anymore. What are your gains?

    Ported heads, new cam profile???

    Im pretty sure those stock cam specs you gave are for 96-98 cobras. The 99-01's have something like 196@ .050, according to Al Pappito and a few others. Im starting to lose my marbles trying to choose cams.

    Ported heads, new cam profile???

    If you want to pass smog, get the cams Al Pappito (boss330) recommends for people who want a strong powerband and want to pass smog. They are some crane N/A cams, with 209 [email protected], and .450 lift. You wont have to replace springs. The 99-01 factory cams have about 10 degrees more duration...

    BBK Twin 62mm Throttle Body

    The way the upper lid has to be modified to accept an accufab, on a 99-01 cobra, the idle air bypass circuit gets eliminated, and now you have no computer controlled idle. You can externally plumb up a bypass circuit, but thats pretty hack. The BBK can work if you're willing to do some work on...

    Ported heads, new cam profile???

    Actually I screwed up. I just looked at a dynojet run file that 2mystic sent me a long time ago. He had ported heads and stock cams. He made 325rwhp SAE and 276rwtq, but his low end was terrible. Only 223rwhp at 4500 rpm. Mine makes 250 with stock timing. He added those cams and another tune and...

    Ported heads, new cam profile???

    Get a simmons or PHP ported, slightly shortened runner intake and crane stage 2 NHRA grinds. They're called NHRA grinds for some reason, but they're actually road race cams. Costs something like 500 bucks including lash caps. They also have low lift so you wont have spring issues. Do those 2...

    Ported heads, new cam profile???

    Stage one hot street is a good step, Im just curious about who the manufacturer is. As far as the heads go, with a B head, I wouldnt port them on a street motor. I would just do a really nice valve job, and do a 30 and 15 degree backcut on all the valves (this is very important). Then I would...

    Double clutching??????

    Its a ricer term for popping the clutch in under acceleration to pop the rpm's up really quick and then dump it to get a jump on the other 16 second strip terror next to them. Waste of time. They dont understand the real meaning of double clutching.
