    Power loss when shifting

    Something is wrong with my car. When I take it out to the top of say first gear, slam it into second it loses power; then it gets up and goes again. The feeling is like when you let out on the clutch at too slow of a speed, it jerks for a sec then goes hard again. Its like the engine hiccups...

    315 Guys, Did you get an alignment?

    I went to the track friday night and was a little disappointed with my times. I only ran a 12.8@114 with 515hp :mj: . Something felt weird all the way down the track, it was like driving on ice. When I got home we watched the video, you can see and hear the rear tires spinning all the way down...

    Blower swap, Ford left something unfinished

    So I was hoping to have some updates on my blower swap today, tomorrow for sure. But after pulling off the eaton look what I found. On former pulls I was having heat from the rear cylinders, and it looks like the ports were blocking my fuel injectors. Any of you guys with blower swaps notice...

    Apten Cooling install prob

    I have my transmission out and the shop has tried to get the cooling mod in there, but we have a problem. We can't get the thing in. The EGR (I think) is in the way to the point that the hoses would pinch. Anybody have any ideas? The directions say to bend the tube, but there is still to much...

    3" exhaust and 10.5" wheels?

    Could somebody with 10.5" wheels and a 3 inch exhaust post some pics of how your pipes clear the wheel? I am thinking I may have to trim the pipes a little when my wheels are in. I have ordered some 18x10.5 HRE's and some 315 BFG G-force drags.

    Anybody actually been refered to the Hot Rod Article?

    So I was waiting for a person who wanted to buy a truck from me. He calls me and turns out he's driving a WRX STI. The very first thing he said when he saw my car was "Nice car, to bad you spent so much and mine would whoop your's ass." :dw: I couldn't beleive the guy actually said that. I said...

    Spark plug color

    I pulled the TR6's I had. I had a lean condition about 1000 miles ago for about a day (10 miles?). So I replaced the plugs with the TR6 IX's. I took a picture to see if any of you spark plug guru's might be able to tell anything from them. They have a little red one them and 2 have a lot more...

    So a friend of mine ordered the whole Saleen body. Front and rear bumpers (Rear says Cobra), side skirts, scoops, tonneau, light bar. Well any way, his car was stolen and totaled before he got a chance to paint and install any of these things. He offered them all to me cheap and I am thinking...

    I'm pinging!

    I was just out with the car and in 4'th gave it some gas from about 60 and it started pinging pretty bad. I have a 2.93 upper and the Predator tune in there. I tried yanking all of the timing, and adding fuel with the pred and still pinging, even worse with the timing out. Any suggestions? I'm...

    Pulleys finally in...

    Well, I finally got my pulleys put in. Billet flow 2.930, and 4 piece idler set. I have had these things for a while just finally in now. I got it dyno'd at ADS in AZ but ran into a little problem. My exhaust prevents them from being able to strap the car down very tight so we had to load 3...

    So I was getting some food today and when I was leaving the parking lot somebody backed in to me. More like went full tilt and slammed my rear passenger side. Hard enough to make my car jump about two feet over. Come to find out the kid who hit me has no drivers license and expired insurance...

    It shouldn't bug me, but it does.

    So I'm cruising home tonight and two lanes over some teenage kid yells "Hey, nice car, is it a 2003?" I reply yes and he asks how fast it is in the 1/4. I told him that I had only run it a couple times one day and got it to do a 12.8-12.9. He has the nerve to say "Hey, its still a nice car, but...
