For smog legality curious if car that was tuned with an off-road was later changed back to the mid pipe will there be any issues running it that way indefinitely? The tune was done with a whipple 2.3, stock manifolds, 13lbs boost , supporting fuel, maf , etc mods. Prefer not having to retune...

just like other projects ive completed, i get bored and its time to move on to something else.
this car started as an original rare 97 roush and was slowly transformed into the cobra clone it is today. many parts are either brand new or have less than 2k miles on them.

after doing a lot of reading on some of the HID lighting forums i finally took the plunge into highend lighting by ordering a bi-xenon retrofit kit from retrofitsource.com.
the kit includes everything you'll need to retro an hid projector into your existing housing such as digital ballasts...
i accompanied a buddy to buy my old car, a 94 cobra faleen from another friend of mine so what better opportunity did this provide to take some stang pics. pics arent the greatest as the weather was pretty overcast here in the SF bay area and my cam is a modern day dinosaur. this by no means...
im considering getting rid of the unsightly hood prop and replacing with a redline set.
been reading that some have encountered some issues w/ the brackets separating out from the fiberglass due to the fiberglass not being strong enough to hold rivets on a high pressure point...
i was bored and made a write up on a ebay catch can install in the how to section. check it out.

unlike the diy setups that run about $15-20 that use a small air compressor filter, i opted to try one of these cheap oil catch can separators off ebay. fyi, for those who do not know, this is a recommended add on to help reduce oil build-up in your intake, which is exacerbated with forced...
decided to bust the el cheapo 10 year old camera to take some neighborhood shots as we finally got some nice weather in the bay. pics of the former GT roush turned terminator fobra. taken at noon so pics didnt come out all impressive.
for the time being i have the black and gray combo...
my idle hangs around 1500 at times and stays there anywhere from 20-30 secs at times and eventually returns to normal idle.
the tps reading was .93V and ive adjusted it to .96V this morning but havent gone for a test drive to see if that fixed it.
ive read that as long as the voltage at no...
rather than the popular external transformation pics i figure id change things up by posting engine pics from start to finish. would be interesting to see how ppl's motors have progressed or changed since most the time we concentrate on what other ppl see first like exterior.
the day i got...
is adjusting the dwell time necessary? i know they say the cop charges faster than coil packs and therefore u need to reduce the dwell time to avoid overheating the coils. does anyone have evidence that this in fact would happen if no adjustments were made?
reason i ask is i dont have tuning...
looking to change things up on my terminator swapped 97 by going with a ported eaton while i have the blower out.

eaton 2.8" pulley
return style fuel system: 39lb injectors, 255lph in tank, AFPR
stock lightning MAF
with a stage 5 port from steg, many of the terminators...
i have an aeroforce gauge mounted on the steering column using an autometer pod. on hot days i notice the gauge tends to malfunction/glitch or even shutoff when the gauge is heat soaked. once the gauge cools down, it returns to normal operation. has anyone experienced this also with column...
i need to swap out my heater cor and have been reading the how-to guides on replacing the core.
ive heard from a few ppl you can cut the box to access the heater core rather than draining the AC, which is required to remove the entire box. anyone have pics on how much you cut to access the...
i have a 2.8 pulley on a stock eaton along with an upper idler. stock lower. this is on a 97 so i eliminated the boost solenoid.
im seeing 13lbs of boost that starts to bleed off around 4.5krpm down to near 10 towards the end of the run.
quesiton is: with no belt slippage, what is normal...
i recently put my 97 with a terminator conversion into the shop to address the dreaded tick issue which ended up being a bad #2 piston/scored cylinder wall. rebuild consisted of boring .030 over, 15cc diamond pistons, FM bearings, ARP fasteners, melling oil pump, ford harmonic balancer, etc...
background on my car: 97 with terminator motor using the stock 97 return style fuel system with 39lb cobra injectors, adjustable fuel pressure reg, 255lph walbro pump.
i had the motor rebuilt recently and ran into issues on the dyno. at wot above 3500rpm the fuel system loses pressure and...
