    EGR DELETE????

    Like I said prior I am building a street strip car, so I am mostly looking for performance. From everything that has been said I think my best bet is to dump the whole egr system. I will remove the spacer and put a plate in its place and I will have my chip reburned so it doesn’t look for the...

    Inching closer...any tricks to break 300 RWHP?

    Meeting your goal Hey man, Port the intake, port the heads, get a intake spacer. Free up the front end with bigger intake tube, mass air, throtle boddy and injectors. With some good work into those heads you should have no troble meeting your goal. Free mods are the clutch fan like you...

    EGR DELETE????

    Hey everyone, I’m currently dropping a 5.0 into my 4cyl car. I am building a street/strip car that will be used mostly for the strip. I am just wondering about this whole egr BS. I know that disabling the air pump will cause a code to be thrown in the computer, but will not cause the check...

    2.3 exhaust

    you can do it with out a welder. its just easier. And the reason i said to empty the cat rather then using a streight pipe is that it will fit better, and it will look like you still have it. You don't want the DEP to tow your car. U cna use tubing if you want. And to put the pipe back...

    2.3 exhaust

    The pipe on my car is 2.25". The only way to gut the cat is to remove the connectors from the manifold and the one that connects to the pipe that runs to the muffler. Then you need to cut the pipe a few inches on either side of the cat, preferably where it is straight. A sawsall or a hack saw...

    4cyl T5

    It can. It all depends on you and the way you drive. Also don't put sticky tires on. :) I wouldn't bother changing it untill it does blow up. Or if it already did and you plan on keeping the car be sure to put in a v8/cobra spec one, it is defenitly worth the $$.

    Ok I am in the process of doing this to my 93 hatch back. These are the differences you can solve the problems in a number of different ways but that part is up to you. Number one the front brakes are smaller, the spindles are the same though so you can upgrade to the v8 brakes or change the...
