    $3000 to spend...

    3000 doesn't go very far with out cars. i totaled my spending the other night and it was approaching 7k in mods...... and i don't have a suspension OR a built engine. it includes wheels and other small things too...... however, building a car takes money, time, and swearing.

    Anyone used 680cc RX-7 Injectors?

    haha.... wow, escort maddness. and yes, the map ecu is a fuel tuning device. it converts the motor to map, and it allows tuning for different size anything dealing with fuel.

    Anyone used 680cc RX-7 Injectors?

    well i just got 720s and i plan on running them on a 500 rwhp motor. i only have a map ecu, but after talking to an engine builder, he said i should have no problem with the 720s. i also would like to run e85, and thats why i have such a big injector!

    Installing Lex/550/Walbro255...any words of wisdom?

    gilberjj's build-up thread!

    thank ya, i got my pic off of the sts website. squires turbo systems. they have a retarded idea of remote location for turbos. they build camaros and vettes and put the turbo by the axle. update, i just got my injectors and my wideband. ill probably throw the pics up later tonight

    XTD Clutch scam!

    i somewhat understand, but at the same time, it wouldn't be on there if ppl didn't buy it. welcome to america, if there wasn't a market for cheap bovs, and wastegates, then they wouldn't be sold here. i have a true greddy tubular manifold. the ssautochrome manifold is the EXACT same manifold...
