    Fox seats in a 2000?

    Nice reupholstery kit. That's the exact seat that is in my 88 thunderbird turbo coupe.

    Esslingers Dyno Chart

    Yeah I'd say for $7000 I'd go turbo (i did) For about $2000 you can hit 300hp with the 2.3 turbo. And if you wanna put 7grand in it you can be up around the 400-500hp mark quite easily.

    Problems

    I'd fill it full of coolant and check your ignition timing. The distributor might have got bumped when the tranny was being fixed. Sounds like it'll idle when the ecu is in closed loop untill it warms up.

    one cylinder dead in 2.3t

    Yeah i'd pop off the upper intake and remove the valve cover and see what's going on with that cylinder. If you don't have any luck, you can sell the cam to me LOL! Though I am seriously looking at Bo's cams...

    2.3 N/A INTAKE write up

    I did the exact same thing to my 2.3 before i went turbo. Unfortunately it's really hard to get above 100hp with the naturally aspiriated setup.

    Turbocoupe code 51 problems

    Hey I've got an 87 turbocoupe and I've had this problem for a while now. The car runs pretty good, but is a bit off due to this problem. eg. not as smooth running, worse gas milage etc. Anyway I ran the KOEO codes and get 51, which according to Cozz's program, (thanks) means: "ECT voltage too...

    I agree the lobes do look pretty rough. But from what I can see in the pictures it is a ranger roller cam.

    $2.39 a gallon of gas B^&*S#$%

    Just be glad you don't have to buy gas in Canada. We're paying about $0.93/liter for 91 octane right now. And if my math is correct (1 gallon = 3.785412 liters) That figures to be about $3.52/gallon! and the news is saying it's gonna reach $1.00/liter ($3.79/gal) by summer time! :notnice...
