    When to rebuild Paxton 2200SL

    Well that was definitely it. The paper filter got my load and MAF flow rate back to what I would expect. The weather was crappy both times I data logged. A little cooler the second day, but much more humid.

    When to rebuild Paxton 2200SL

    You know, I thought about that after posting. I did have a red reusable one on there when I datalogged. I recently put a paper version of it in. I’ll datalog it again and see what happens. Good call.

    When to rebuild Paxton 2200SL

    How do you know when the head units need a rebuild? Mine runs, isn’t terribly noisy, but when datalogging, my load and Maf lbs keep decreasing over time. I have a 3.48 pulley on it currently and load peaks around 1.55. It used to peak around 2.10. I also used to peg the Maf sensor, and now I do...

    Limits of stock exhaust and current injectors

    I've never heard #2 before. Seems odd since GT500s are FI and have...GT500 mufflers on them. Not disagreeing, just wondering as I have them on my car and my Paxton install finished up yesterday.

    Steering/Control at higher speeds

    I just said F it and ordered Konis, BMR springs, an adjustable pan hard bar, and caster camber plates.

    Steering/Control at higher speeds

    Just hit 11k. I bought it this past New Years Eve with 7k on it.

    Steering/Control at higher speeds

    I haven't. I've suspected though because of the amount of noise the rear makes when going over bumps. How do does one check the rear shocks to tell if they are bad?

    Steering/Control at higher speeds

    I mean supporting things to be able to get everything back in line, camber bolts or caster camber plates, adjustable panhard bar, shocks are generally recommended. It gets expensive.

    Steering/Control at higher speeds

    Hater. I do want new shocks and springs too. So many parts required when you do springs though...I'm adding them slowly.

    Steering/Control at higher speeds

    No, new wheels and tires all around. How would I know if it's the bushings?

    Steering/Control at higher speeds

    No relo brackets. I didn't mean jerking violently (this could get off topic lol) I just meant like making aggressive lane changes or movements to test if the tires are biting. In my case, the car seems fine until I get to 70-80 mph. Then it feels like it's floating side to side and the rear is...

    Steering/Control at higher speeds

    To start here is a list of things done to the car: BMR adjustable UCA and mount, lower control arms, non-adjustable panhard bar and brace, and 19x9.5 Avant Garde m310s with 275/40/19 General Gmax tires on them (inflated to 35 psi all around). Springs/shocks/struts are stock as far as I know...

    My new (to me) 2014

    That's exactly what I've experienced. However the ones that claimed the color was terrible had NO issues asking for a ride in it.

    My new (to me) 2014

    Not sure. It was at 7,400 when I picked it up and it's three years old. I'm guessing summer only type stuff. It has one tiny rock chip on the front. That's the only blemish I could find. None of the exhaust is even a little rusty yet.

    My new (to me) 2014

    Yes I did! It was at a dealer across the street from my house for 6 months...they were asking $34k for it at first. It has 7k miles and is almost fully loaded. When they lowered it down to $24k (gradually over those 6 months) I decided I could afford it. I love it. I had a 13 GT a few years ago...
