    HKS D2 Exhaust Wont Fit!

    Just bought this exhaust and I'm getting a 1" overlap at the cat outlet. The DP is from Driftmotion and I'm afraid its too long. I measured from the rear trans mount to the cat inlet flange at about 5.5". Can anyone confirm if this measurement is correct? Thanks

    Is the O2 supposed to do this?

    I was messing with the scope today trying to pinpoint my missfire when the engine is hot and idling. Knock sensors, CKP, pulse width, IAT, ECT,TPS, and air flow signals are all operating normal. The O2 sensor however drops below .1v at idle. Now i know its not supposed to do that on obd cars...

    Degreeing stock cams. GTE vs GE.

    I just got a set of adjustable cam gears for my NA-T 7M. I dynoed my car and would like to shift the powerband. The engine currently has a GE intake cam.

    Bringing window trim back to life.

    Something I did today in about an hour and a half. Plastidip, then some high gloss clear. Best thing is you can peel it of if you don't like it. If I were to do it again I would use some low gloss clear. Clear

    CPS and coil pack connector rewire

    I can't seem to find the part number for cps and coil pack male/female connectors with pigtail. Like most members here my wires are brittle so every so often I need to do the jiggle mod to get it started. I know there are a few members here that have ordered them before and the dealership was no...

This is a fairly new clutch so I need something that can hold atleast 400 ft/ib. I want to piece together...
