    fuel economy and cam

    The whole gas mileage argument is subject to too much opinion. Blackfang, while I understand what you are saying; it is a little presumptuous to claim that gas mileage shouldn't be a concern to anyone modifying their engines with aftermarket heads, camshafts or forced induction. As Bhuff...

    College papers...

    :OT: That would be the moral and ethical thing to do. I'm trying to find ways to circumvent procedure.

    College papers...

    Pretty much. As I said before, I expected some negativity. This is fantastic soapbox material for someone to go into a moral diatribe... :rolleyes: Fortunately for me, my writing and grammar skills are very much up to par, and I wont be affected in that regard. They call an associate's...

    College papers...

    I expected some kind of backlash for this :rlaugh: Honestly, I dont give a ***** about some ridiculous paper that is going to suck hours of my life away and, yeah, I am looking for an easy way out. The line of work I'm going into is about as far from a composition class as it can get, and...

    Do i really need extended ball joints?

    FWIW, I've got the Steeda X2 balljoints combined with their bumpsteer kit with 275 mm tires up front and my bumpsteer is very minimal. I could type out a big long explanation of how these components work together, but Steeda explains it on their website. Basically, I can't compare what I have...

    Just did a compression test...

    Interesting. 12.79 @ 107.14 -- nice run. With that said, I'm not concerned really... I am just planning on spraying it until it goes and do something along the lines of a 347 when the time allows. As I mentioned earlier, I'm happy with the overall consistency of the #'s. I'll look for your...

    Ok i F**ked UP!!! Please help

    If you have the the BBK h-pipe as well... it's not going to fit properly. I had to have mine cut and rewelded to fit right.

    Just did a compression test...

    I just didn't read the instructions until afterward... :D I thought the way I was doing it was correct... There seems to be a lot of wishy washy opinions as to what the correct method for doing it is though... If you do a search (which I did), you come across people doing it like I did...

    I didn't have the TB open, and I replaced each plug when I was done w/ the cylinder...

    Just did a compression test...

    Yeah, I did the test myself... I did it dry, on a cold engine... But, my numbers seem fine to me. I just went and picked up the gauge at Autozone for 20 bucks, it's not too bad, the only cylinder that was a PITA was #4... all that EGR bull**** was in the way and on of the runners on my headers...

    #4 129 #8 130 #3 120 #7 130 #2 120 #6 130 #1 128 #5 130 What do you guys think? The car has 139k on it... It's had two previous owners, one of which modified the car, so I dont know exactly what was done to it. But I'm pretty pleased.

    How do you adjust the throttle cable?!!

    :eek: Guess the 9 hours was justified. I already had the O/R H-Pipe and catback on there already... The only crap I ran into was the EGR tube, which I used a shorter (if I recall correctly) piece of tube for, and had to use a flange kit on it also... Other than that, everything went fine...

    How do you adjust the throttle cable?!!

    9 hours?! What problems did you run into? I installed BBK shorties on mine in about two... I'm not trying to be a jerk, just curious.
