    PS pump help ASAP

    I do have a problem with my power steering pump and it would be great if someone could help. I do have a leak directly at the pump, actually it's the pressure hose which connects to the pump. That tube or hose sits pretty loose, so I guess it's broken somehow in the input shaft of the pump...

    tune

    I'm still working on getting my tune right after installing the Whipple with 60s injectors, BAP and MAFia. The car runs great, I just have a slight hesitation while accelerating under boost below 2k rpm. It seems like it's worse when the engine is still warming up. My AF ratio goes up past...

    Whipple noise?

    A friend just installed his new whipple on his '04 Cobra with only 8k mls on it. The car ran fine at the beginning now he switched to a 3.00 pulley and gets some noise. It sounds like a loose timing chain, but the noise goes away when he removes the blower belt. You only hear the noise...

    MAF vs MAFia ?

    I'm going to install my whipple this weekend with 3.25 pulley. I have the usual fuel upgrades like BAP and 60lb injectors. I also got the MAFia but my tuner (mail order tune) prefers a bigger MAF to prevent pegging. What MAF do I need to buy? Would a SCT-Big Air 2400 or 2800 do the job?

    whipple belt

    I’m going to install my whipple with 3.25 pulley and have a 100mm idler, would the stock belt or a 1980mm belt work? That’s actually the only size I could find here in Germany and should equal a 77 7/8” Gates. I do know about that side, Belt Selection Guide but it didn’t help much.
