    Tranny problems.... after taking off throttle body and intake

    After I took off the throttle bottle and intake and installed the acufab throttle body my transmission seems like its slipping and it shifts hard as hell under normal acceleration. Could this be a problem with the TPS? Do I not have a vacum hooked up correctly? Help?

    Another Predator question

    While we wait on the other L to get bored out, I thought I'd tune my L with his predator. The only thing is, how do I know that the P has downloaded MY original tune and it MY tune that I'm messing with? I already reinstalled HIS original tune into his L. He's got an '02 and I have an '03. When...

    Horror story about an L, a Predator, and inexperianced installers/tuners

    A friend of mine had just bought an '02 L for a damn good deal. He then dropped on the "E" kit from rpmoutlet but he took it to a no namer in Houston to have the shit installed, including the tune that was sent from rpmoutlet.... aw shit. I had no idea that he had even done this until I got a...

    Do you trust Kenne Bell?

    I have been keeping up with the info on their web site and their methods of tuning L's. Most seem's pretty accurate but there are some things on there that just seem a little "flakey", like in the FAQ's "Can the switch chip hurt my engine" and they respond "No", hmmm, right. I would believe that...

    Will the predator eliminate the needs for a new valve body? Can I adjust line pressure that way for performance shifts?

    Anyone know of good reliable web sites to get parts from?

    I've checked PSP,AmazonRacing, and RPMOutlet. RPMOutlet is probably the cheapest so far that I've found. What I'm looking for is intake and exausht, until I can find a job it's going to have to be cheap prices.

    My truck motto

    Been trying to think of a saying I could put on the back side of my truck. So far, I think the best one I've come up with is "You Never Saw The Lightning, But You Heard The Thunder". Someone else jacked my bullshit stops when my right foot drops so i had to ditch that one.

    Problems with TQ, or SC.

    Ok, ever since I got the truck it has done this. I'll try and explain the best I can. In second gear ONLY, %90+ throttle, between 3000rpm and 4000rpm it sounds like the supercharger is modulating boost or rpm's rise and then fall, rise and fall. When it does this RPM's dont climb as fast on...

    Bad Gas Mileage?

    My gas mileage has been getting worse since I bought the truck. My first tank I got 290miles on it. It has been declining since and now I'm getting about 190miles to 22 gallons with just normal driving and a couple of 100% throttles. I've noticed it's been running rich, obviously, should I take...

    A short story about a Z06.....

    It started out on the freeway and when spotted a silver vette. I proceed to catch up with him, thinking it was a C5, until I got close enough to see he wasn't a hatchback, but even then it still could be a hardtop C5, until I pull right beside him and see the vents. Normally I wouldn't race the...
