    How can I start tuning my own car?

    Looks like something I’ll be getting into next. But first I’m gonna drive it out there and strap this car up one more time, I’m gonna pay him the 275 for the revision dyno time and see how the car does without a bolt bouncing off the knock sensors like pong. If she makes over 500 then this...

    How can I start tuning my own car?

    I mean like my tuner tunes the car close as he can and then I take it down the road and for example... right now I can tell I need timing up top so I would add some total timing or some in that rpm range that will be happy with the fuel I have access to at the time.

    How can I start tuning my own car?

    I remember building the radio shack sims for my GT years ago before I got into tuning. Thanks for the reminder. I’ll have to give that a try. Still ridiculous they can’t turn this stuff off. And he’s not charging me for email revisions... I can’t get an email returned. I have to schedule new...

    How can I start tuning my own car?

    The car made 487 with blown out ring lands on stock internals, 9psi and a single fuel pump two years ago. The newest issue with the car was that it wouldn’t take any timing because there was a stray bolt stuck under the coolant tube with a thick washer on it that kept setting off the knock...

    How can I start tuning my own car?

    Are there any self tuning programs for the 99-04 on the market without having to buy an entire new standalone race setup? It’s needed for a street car for minor adjustments so I don’t have to keep paying for revisions that don’t work. My little bro has an SRT Jeep with a Vortech that he...

    The Official Centrifugal Pulley/Boost Combo Thread!!!

    NICE NUMBERS! Been debating on shortening my C-Head intake now that I'm centri charged. How's it feel down below 3500?

    5.50 Backspace on an SN95 length axle in a new edge = Perfect. With 275s it's gonna look mean.

    Thanks! It's a VIS carbon fiber cowl that was beyond saving so I refinished it. Definitely helps The Vortech cool down.

    Beautiful ride. That is the color right there.

    Ohhh. SWEET! I assumed it was still IRS because of the exhaust bend. But that's even better to know you got the same one. Should be PERFECT for a 5.5bs and no spacer. I'll post pics up when I get mine. They're on their way. These should look good and do just fine for this season.

    So that's with a 5/16 spacer and IRS... I should be right on the money with a 5.5 backspacing then. Still running my factory cobra brakes on the SN axle too. I may have to do a little grinding.

    Do you know the exact backspacing and offset of those rear wheels? Looking to buy some deep 15x10s like that but I have a shorter 94-98 solid axle now.

    Fuel hats

    That is a nice score. I just bought a factory twin hat with dual Focus 255s and hose upgrade/pprv delete for 150. I've been wondering the same things, but I've already got a Vortech in the car that is maxing the DC on a single stealth 325 @6100rpm (with the typical random dropout spikes from...
