Hey guys.
At the suggestion of LilRoush, I'm starting a thread here explaining my car's current mods, and a complete break down of future mods, from replacing bushings to a bore & stroke.
Virtually all of my engine/drivetrain mods are listed in my signature, so I guess the only other things I need to mention are the black projector headlights and black LED taillights.
My most recent mod has been the Delta Force Tuning Sniper tune. I have noted in a TXT file the parameters I changed on the tune if anyone's interested. I can copy & paste on here.
With the tune mentioned, brings a question for you guys: During the tune, I deleted the EGR valve, but I haven't PHYSICALLY removed it. Any tips on doing it? I purchased a pipe cap from Lowe's to cover the header mounting point, but what about the IM?
I'm kind of on the fence right now about my next mod. I'm on a low budget, so I have to do a little at a time. Until yesterday, I had my heart set on swapping the rearend to an 8.8" out of a GT because I was under the impression that they came with 3.73s factory with a T-Lok and 31 spline axles. You guys cleared that up for me, and in fact its sounding like the 7.5" will do just fine with 3.73s and a T-Lok, so that's probably what I'm going to do.
I've also been contemplating a pair of Bride racing seats with an SCCA approved cage. The hold up on that is I need to know what kind of dash mods are going to be needed to accomodate the cage.
Finally, a friend of mine recently swapped his 3.8 for a 302, so the v6 is just sitting at his house collecting dust. This seems like an ideal candidate for me to tear down to bore & stroke, so I'm going to see how much he wants to sell it for.
Before I give the full breakdown, I'll allow for some input from everyone.
