Pontiac line of cars is now dead according to GM. Trans Am will never make a come back.

Anyone have troubles with their rpms not getting up to the upper RPM's as fast with the TKO as they did with their T-45? I have heard that the TKO's do not like high rpm's, but I wonder if anyone else has had this issue? My cobra does well from start to about 5k rpms, but its like my tach...

I have about 3500 miles on my new TKO and it seems that when on hard acceleration the car is strong up until around 5000rpms in 2nd gear and then its like it hits a brick wall with a transmission vibe that feels like it has to be killing the performance. I never felt that with my T-45... I...

:cryying: I had it in the driveway and she backed into it taking out the passenger side mirror and scratching the paint on the front quarter panel and door. I guess I should be happy she stopped before scratching all the way down the car. Luckily there isnt any body damage, only paint damage...

I have a JLT CAI. Right after I installed my TKO and got my car back together, My car would occasionally die if I was coasting to a stop coming down a hill. Cars starts right up and idles fine. This normally happened two or three times a week. Yesterday, the check engine light comes on and...

I recently had a TKO installed and I have the vibe that starts at 80mph. I want to know what size aluminum DS I should get since I have the TKO. I dont want to use the 2" spacer that I am currently using with my stock steel Driveshaft. I am praying that an aluminum DS makes the vibe go away...

How difficult is it to change the stock fuel pump? I think mine is going out.

Have about 430 miles on a new Spec2, TKO setup. Was driving home last night and gave it some good acceleration in 2nd gear to about 4k rpms, then let off. Turned left into my neighborhood and about 1000 ft later the car stumbles and lets out a backfire as I am turning onto my neighborhood...

I moved to Tulsa, Oklahoma from Wichita, Kansas a month ago. Went home to pickup the cobra this weekend and made the 180 mile drive on a new TKO and Spec 2...I now have 330 miles on the new setup after the drive. The TKO is really notchy, and occasionally I cant get the tranny in reverse...

For those that have done the BBK LT header install, how did you rout the oil dipstick? I had to bend the oil tube some around a header tube and now I am having problems registering any oil. I couldnt get underneath far enough to see if the tube was still all the way in the block as it was...

Whew! 10 months later, my cobra finally hit the road again this weekend. Last fall, my buddies at work wanted to see a smokey burnout after work, unfortunately, my clutch gave out in the middle of it and bent my input shaft on my T-45. Mistake #1 - Dont let your buddies pressure you into being...

whoops, double post

I am currently installing a TKO-500, and am having issues setting up the stock T-45 clutch fork in the new bellhousing for the TKO, mainly having sufficient space for the fork to move. Can I use the stock T-45 clutch fork on the TKO, or do I have to buy a seperate clutch fork? Almost finished...

I am moving to Tulsa next month for a new job. Please tell me that I wont have to worry about emmisions tests, especially since I have Longtubes. I hear that the Tulsa track is awesome. Putting in some goodies next week before I relocate, 26 spline TKO-500, Spec 2 clutch, BBK Long Tubes...
