    Is this right?

    I've heard a couple people on here say using 70% water to 30% coolant is the best way. Wont that lower the boiling point? And if this is true what benefits does it have and why? thanks.

    Im sick

    I never listen to the radio because the sounds of the 7mgte are so intoxicating. The sound of the turbo spooling up, and BOV are great. But when the turbo spools up and the 7M revs it is absolutely amazing. My knees get weak. Best sounding engine ive ever heard and ive owned Z28's and cobras...

He dropped back for awhile but then gained a...

Completely dead cylider, i though i blew a piston. Pulled it in my driveway and looked under the hood. A disconnected spark plug wire. Phew...

    Quick SAFCII question

    If i install an SAFC and do not adjust the air flow correction at all it will run my stock map correct? Nothing will change? I know it sounds stupid but i want to make sure.

    AFM Question

    Can I hook up a lexus AFM without 550's or an engine management? I have $5000 worth of parts waiting to be put on this weekend and the more i do myself the less the install will cost. Even though it is my buddys doing it for me it still makes a money difference. Also, one of the honeycomb...

    Wheel question

    I accidentally ordered +48 offset instead of +38 offset rims. They are already shipped so it would cost $15 a box (2 boxes) and another $150 in shipping to get the right ones. Heres my question...can i use small 5-10mm wheel spacers to make up the difference?

    IJ - SERIOUS question

    I just had the bottom end rebuilt in my 89 turbo. ACL bearings and a new crankshaft. I am running 15w50 mobil one full synthetic. He said that its not the best break in oil, but it shouldnt be a problem. True? Should i change my oil? I have 100miles on the bearings now. Thanks in advance.
