    Is a Greddy BCC a safe alternative?

    I regret selling my Stealth ECU now, thinking I was going to jump right into a standalone but have reservations now. Is a Greddy BCC a safe way to prevent boost cut or is it a bad idea using stock a stock ECU with it? Ive read that the GCC is better than the FCD since it does not alter the core...

    I have removed all the screws on the valve covers and they seem to still be held on pretty well with no movement. I dont know if they are usually stubborn to remove or if I am missing something that is still holding them on. Can anyone help? TIA

    Boost Controller not controlling?

    Hey all, This is kind of a strange one that I hope can be rectified very easily. When this boost controller was first installed over a year ago (AEM Tru-Boost) it seemed to work fine. I could set different levels of boost and really feel the difference. Couldnt set it too high or the boost...

    Reporting Fraud w/out being a victim?

    How do you report a fraud, but have not been taken by the person? What I find is that there are people selling supras (MK4) and silvias on places like cars.com which are too good to be true. So for shits n giggles, I write them pretending to be very interested. 99% of the replies all point to...

    Whats outside my backdoor?

    I ran across some pictures that were taken years ago when I first moved into this house. It was a late summer night and I heard something trying to scratch and/or open the back door. When I realized it wasnt a person, I grabbed a cheap point and shoot camera and took a few shots. When I opened...
