    Somerset Pics!

    Nice pics. I wish I would have gone. I went a couple of years ago and it was amazing.

    Brand new 2012 coming in for few mods and a big ass turbo

    Oh my, that thing is ridiculous. Not sure how I missed the entire thread the past six months, but I enjoyed seeing the progress. What kind of times is he wanting to achieve with this monster?

    Fail Safe Mode Questions

    Thanks, I'll keep that in mind should it happen again. Wouldn't it take a hole somewhere to cause a loss of pressure though? I don't run a catch can, and I thought these cars were notorious for high oil pressure?

    Fail Safe Mode Questions

    I assume this is tech as the threads I saw when I searched were in this sub-forum as well. Anyhow, I was on my way home just a little while ago and the car died on the interstate and went into fail safe mode. I tried to roll start the car considering I was traveling 75mph and didn't want to be...

    WTB: Stock Radiator Cover

    Bump, no one have one of these laying around? I guess I should have also mentioned it is an 06 and not a '10+ even if that does/does not matter.

    WTB: Stock Radiator Cover

    As the title states I'm looking for a stock radiator cover for my brother's v6. If anyone has one feel free to pm me or just post up in this thread, I don't post a lot but do lurk every day so I'm sure I'll see it. I am located in Eastern Kentucky if anyone has shipping concerns. Thanks.

    Few Turbo Questions

    Personally, I would leave the gears alone. By switching to a steeper gear (3.73 or 4.10) you're not going to have as much load put on the turbo which will give you spool issues. If you want exhaust, I would recommend an axle back, and maybe a mid-pipe although the mid-pipe will not likely be...

    Clay City Ky dragstrip

    Haven't had a chance to make it down too many times this year, but I always look forward to going down to Clay City. My car is currently in pieces, but once it gets back together and the weather drops I hope to make some passes. Even if my pile is damn near stock. Midnight Mayhems are usually...

    Attempting to get better MPG

    I really don't think you'll save a lot of money switching to 87 octane. In my area the difference between 87 and 93 is $0.20. If you use 500 gallons a year you will only save $100 or $200 if you use a 1,000 gallons. However 500 gallons is a considerable amount of gas. I mean at 18 mpg for 500...

    cold weather: is this normal?

    Damn. Thanks for the good information folks. I too thought that I had a rear caliper sticking, but wasn't sure. The past couple days I have just been leaving the car in gear when parked and not using the break, if the weather warms up and the cable thaws, will this allow the calipers to "unstick" ?

    cold weather: is this normal?

    Would you care to elaborate about this issue with the e-brake ? Because it has been so cold here lately, my e-brake handle has been feeling really loose, and I've been curious as to what as caused this. Good info too, VTXFrank, I didn't know that about the transmission and diff fluids.

    Mac axle backs $200 shipped

    I realize you have sold these, but are you saying that your stingers toned down your exhaust compared to your Macs? Because I have Macs with an off road H, and it can be a little obnoxious sometimes.

    Idle Issue.

    Well, the weather hasn't changed here for the past two weeks, just hot and sunny. And the battery is less than a month old, so it likely doesn't have any build up on the terminals. I'll have to try cleaning the throttle body and MAF though. This may be a stupid cleaner, but does anyone make...

    Idle Issue.

    I feel like this a tech question, if not my apologies. Anyhow, I have a 2005 gt with JLT CAI, brenspeed xcal-3 tune, and a pypes off road H pipe. The problem I have been having is that when I get in my car in the morning to drive to campus, my car starts up fine, then begins to idle funny as...
