My car has always bogged a bit until it's warmed up... Shouldn't be going WOT until it's up to operating temps anyway...

Was just replying to the bit of sarcasm you showed about boosting an N/A. Not hard feelings, I just want to make perfectly clear that it's not an upgrade and be prepared to go back to a stock setup at the drop of a hat if it's required to keep your engine cool. If you're going to do it...

OEM cats have been proven to be the best at doing their job, but most restrictive...

They shouldn't bounce as they're dampeners. Hit a good bump and it should control the natural bounce of the spring, if not then they're shot. Hell, I have stock springs with KYB shocks and I can barely get the car to move at all by sitting on it...

Conversion of energy isn't 100% efficent, so converting mechanical energy into electricity then back to mechanical is going to have more loss than the mechanical driving the mechanical. Don't be surprised if you LOSE power when the fans are on...

Quite a few car companies advertise this way... Good example is the GM and Toyota with stated horsepower ratings...

Fix the A/C, get it tuned, and track down the squeeks. With everything you have into it and never having it to it's top form, it's no wonder you're losing interest... I'll trade yah so you can start over :D

The Group-A heads are different... good luck finding one though.

They don't need to be poly, if I'm correct they are more like a heim joint in their construction.

Yeah, that's already taken care of. Sadly that's about the only angle the car looks good :cry:

Cap won't stop it though. Don't sell a 5MB line if you can't supply the service at any time. Should be sold at the speed of the worst on the network on the worst load, not the best on the lightest load.

Haven't they been putting scopes on em and using them at some crazy ranges in Iraq?

They're listed on this page. They're very different and are spherical if I remember right, and are heard to be a royal pain to replace... http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/EPC/291420/catalog.aspx?F=4804&P=1

Castrol Super Clean and lots of scrubbing and soaking.

Stock is more durable, safer, efficent, cheaper... I can go on, but if you're mind is set on having them as an "upgrade" know that they aren't.

I understood it as rhetoric, but he asked the question...

Oh, don't get me wrong SS, I understand if they can't turn a profit they will go out of business. But they shouldn't sell false hopes and promises. I have friends with cable internet and the slowdown and peak usage is nuts. Don't promise what you can't deliver and you won't piss off the...

Yep, I agree. Mine gets better milage after the mods I've done than when it was stock...

The effect this thread is having on me: Anyway, get pictures of your setup and we'll go from there to see what's wrong with your setup (if anything).

After removing the paint (No, not ALL of the paint is gone, it's not really necessary to be honest. But, you have to make sure everything behind the lense is black, and you can't just put black on the back of the lense.)
