    My Car vs Cobolt SS

    I pulled in behind him on a two lane hwy. I could see he was eyeing up my car through the reflection in his sideview mirror. Once the hwy split in to four lanes, I eased up next to him. He rolled down his window, smiled, and downshifted. We were doing about 40 so I downshifted into second...

    Looking at 7MGTE Ignition Alternatives...

    With plugs gapped at .028, I'm experiencing spark blow out at around 15.5-16 psi. To combat this, I'm considering three things. 1. 2JZGE COP's (already have sitting on the bench) 2. http://store.driftmotion.com/static/i-43001-ak001.php 3. Close the gap on the plugs; but, don't want...

    Calling all Dyno Goo-Roos!

    I went to the dyno about a week ago. The session was cut short because my wastegate was sprung too light. 8 psi. As a result, the turbo spooled VERY slow and not hit full boost until 5100 rpm. I brought the car home and adjusted the wastegate to 12.5 psi. Now the car reaches full boost at...
