    Cars been sitting for 2 years... Experts HELP

    Replace the fuel. Replace the oil. Change the filter. Remove the sparkplugs. Crank the starter, with the plugs removed, until you get actual oil pressure. Give the starter a rest. Run the starter again until you get pressure. Add the plugs. Start the motor.

    MAP-ECU Tuning

    You have to let the car warm up. Cold start is not a tunable condition. If I recall correctly, Jarrett's harnesses have extra wires for other items. It's pretty much plug and play for a map-ecu. I'm assuming that's the bosch inline pump? Do you know if the in-tank pump is stock? Has the...

    MAP-ECU Tuning

    Vf is not something monitored by the map-ecu, or other piggyback computers. This is done usually with a voltmeter connected to a wire on the ECU. If you look under your hood in the diagnostic block, you'll find a Vf1 pin. The Vf1 output has three different types of Vf output. o2 Sensor...

    Bi-Tron Oil Additive...Snake Oil? You be the Judge

    Tek takes people's hard earned money for a product. As jdub states in the post above, we'd just like to see the science. So far, we've been barraged with bullshit, not science. And you brought even more bullshit, reducing the credibility of the claims he has made further. Bring something...

    Very strange pistons!!

    Can happen in any engine. A high compression NA can detonate easily. Or if there is carbon build up. Or physical damage causing a sharp edge to become a hot spot. It's just easier for it to happen with a turbo car since people can mess with the boost. Not really. The air/fuel mixture in your...

    The (old) Official Gun Thread.

    Then again, what good will it do them? Really? What's the anti-gun crowd going to do, come break in and threaten the gun owners with foul language?

    Bi-Tron Oil Additive...Snake Oil? You be the Judge

    Actually suprasport91 was going to do the tests last we heard. We don't even know where the hell you fit into all this. Nobody asked about your tests. You are the new kid. I'm not passionate about putting people down. I'm passionate about truth. I'd like to see or hear some. Not more bullshit...

    Anyone get this spam email...

    The message above doesn't meet the criteria for a pyramid. It's just begging. It only would if the sender told you to send 100 emails out as well, and promised you $100 in return.

    Went deaf in my right ear?

    Ric, that sounds a lot like the symptoms of permanent hearing damage from loud noises. Get to an ear doctor ASAP. Kyle, You guys have government provided healthcare, what is your excuse for not seeing a doctor?

    MAP-ECU Tuning

    Yes, and yes. But make VERY small changes at first until you get a feel for it. Make frequent backups of your map as well so you can drop back to them. Keep notes with each map as well (I usually keep a .txt file with the same name as the map to store notes in). Ok, riddle me this: Which...

    Very strange pistons!!

    Detonation doesn't put dents in pistons and/or valves. It might crack them, but not that. Could be detonation broke a spark plug, but detonation in and of itself doesn't create damage like that.

    Bi-Tron Oil Additive...Snake Oil? You be the Judge

    Your post consist of you: Telling us we are crazy for asking for proof. Telling us we can't refute testimonials. Telling us yet another 'amazing' testimonial, but you have no proof of it. Telling us you could do the tests, but you are already making excuses as to why they will never get done...

    MAP-ECU Tuning

    With the correct injectors and a map-ecu, you won't need that FCD. I really dislike FCD's. That device is a signal clamp. I limits the peak output of your airflow signal. Let's say you set your FCD to setting X. What that does is tell the FCD, pass the AFM (or map-ecu / s-afc) signal to the...

    Duct Tape Insulation and Heat Wrap

    No duct tape. It doesn't weather well, it will make a mess and trap moisture. As a matter of fact, wrap on intake pipes in general isn't a good idea. They don't get hot enough to cook off moisture so the layers under the wrap become a corrosive steam bath. Ceramic coating is where it's at...
