    Cruising Speeds and 4.10s. Hard on the transmission?

    No problems at all, your just reving a little more. Torque and shock kills trannies, your using less torque to move your car at a higher rpm.

    Those using 160 or 180 Thermostat...

    A cooler thermostat than stock will not let to car go into closed loop most of the time(all the time in cool atmosphere), this will not allow the computer to go into closed loop and use the sensors to maintain a 14.7 AFR durring cruise. This is why and how gas milage goes away.

    Why do people going all out on there 4.6's choose s/c over a turbo

    I'll take that headache any day for the install so I can watch everyones face at the track!! you can't beat the gas milage/ reliability factor of a properly installed turbo system either, LB for LB more power and unbeleivable torque. How is your Tweecing going??

    Springs and C/C Plate Install... GET IN HERE!!!

    hmm... good info, in my local area Tire Kingdom is doing 5 yrs/ unlimited adjustment for $140. I talked to my local manager and since I have bought soo many tires from him he told me that I can come in to have it adjusted to custom specs whenever I want. :D I ask every other place that and it...

    Full Synthetic Oil

    Full synthetic oil is a designed to do what you’re doing with it; conventional oils are just making use of what you’ve got. A synthetic lube will keep you running longer and cleaner. Whoever recommended that for you either didn’t know, doesn’t care or wants to sell something.

    310 modular motor, forged crank?

    I haven’t heard of nor seen any problems with the cast cranks and I have heard of a couple near 600rwhp and seen many 400+ rwhp cars with them. I still side with the forged crank; it’s the right way to do it!! I would definitely get that $400 knocked off the bill if you can that doesn’t seem...

    DOnt Buy SPEC

    I'm sorry, I will never agree with this. I have had nothing but positive experiences with spec, only problems with the install. The most common problem I have seen would be flywheel not being resurfaced correctly. I have a Stage II and have never had any chatter, nor any friends that have...

    Forgot to plug in MAF, did I hurt anything....

    No harm done to anything but a code, The EEC just works off of TPS signal and rpm in that sort of situation, you should now have better performance, an improved exhaust note and overall improvement in drivability. Power delivery should be smoother with quicker reaction times. CL is used...

    THE BEST MPG

    I drove to Key West from Tampa and I got about 27 mpg in my 94' with an exhaust leak. The best my 00' has done is 24-25mpg.

    4v Swap/Tuning???

    Yes, the programmer Mike Glover does update the software. Yeah, I think you definately need a tune more than a roll cage. Your tune made by you should end up better than a shop tune, because your diagnosing the car and tweaking settings on the street, not a dyno. Further more, if you use...

    4v Swap/Tuning???

    Oh yeah, I forgot to say this, once you purchase a tweecer, Mike the guy that writes the software will read your current chip/dynotune so you can have a good starting point, if you already have a chip.

    4v Swap/Tuning???

    Yes, the tweecer plugs into the j3 port like a chip, but connected to it I leave my usb cable tucked away somewhere and my switch in the center console. I can select a program/switch while running and even turn the tweecer off and automatically load the factory tune while the engine is running...

    4v Swap/Tuning???

    The tweecer is a chip like product that connects to a computer via usb and has up to 4 programs in 2 bank mode and 2 programs in 4 bank mode that you can switch while driving. The RT version of it alows you to datalog and monitor up to 16 inputs live on the EEC. Go to www.tweecer.com I have...

    Pulled 2 codes last night-need advice

    Do you have the flow sheet for the pro-m, if you do you need to show it to your tuner or if your not tuned you should get a custom tune. Having an MAF that is slightly off will make the car run fine but will eventually throw codes.

    4v Swap/Tuning???

    This is easily done with any decent tuning but for example, its going to run poorly if not tuned right like whats going on.

    4v Swap/Tuning???

    Ok, easy to do with the tweecer, get urself the RT and then use a 99+ tune as the starting point, you can copy and paste tables and functions from different tunes. Open your file and then just copy the crucial tables and functions from the 99+ tune. Josh.

    Going back to a 4.6 from 5.4 am I missing anything?

    ok, you got me for another minute, you know the cost of the longblock I described in my first post. I didnt originally plan on really doing that much of a motor, soo I dont have the money for anything else except maybe the oil pan and windage tray right now, maybe in a few months.
