Lookin good! Those covers will look great on there. When are you looking to have this thing buttoned up?

Today.. Could've taken it last night but it was already late and he wanted to sort any bugs out before I take it home.. I'm completely pumped for the inaugural burnout!

Needs to be fine tuned and I have a busted coil pack.

Sounded like it was running pretty smooth. How does it feel compared to the old setup?

Runs 20x better and pulls pretty hard even with the 2.73's It feels good she tends to break up above 5k and it dies with the AC on at redlights.

Didnt look too bad at all. Get some gears and a tune in thing and it'll be a blast. Oh, what's you plan for the speedometer when you do the gear swap? If you don't have a solution yet, I can help you out.

Has a funky idle 'problem' after driving 45 miles. I'll shoot a cold start video later on.

My speedometer isn't accurate and at times reads 20+ mph off so I drive by RPM and a GPS speedometer app... I've learned that about 1850-1900 in 5th = 78-80 mph on I-10. Any clues how to fix it?

Maybe this is also part of the issue Ballistic and I are having

Several of these don't mean SHIT as I've deleted the EGR but a couple have to do with the EVAP system..

CA853CF1-70C0-4C71-BAC8-30C91B09C167_zpsiguygg1t.jpg


You guys have any of these codes?

P1443Evaporative Emission Control System - Vacuum System - Purge Control Solenoid or Purge Control Valve fault
P1401Differential Pressure Feedback Electronic Sensor circuit High Voltage
P1409?EGR Vacuum Regulator circuit malfunction

P1000 OBD-II Monitor Testing Incomplete
^^ this went away after 100 miles

0153 02 Sensor Circuit Slow Response (Bank 2 Sensor 1)
^^ I'm going to buy a new O2

P1260 Theft Detected - Engine Disabled

^^ I just don't know..

P0307 Cylinder 7 Misfire Detected

^^ That turned out to be a loose spark plug boot


Going to purchase the following parts later:

CP-505: Vapor Canister Purge Solenoid

CP-509: Vapor Canister

Neither of us have codes being thrown. No check engine lights for both of us but I know for certain I'm missing and he says his car sounds similar to mine. Ive changed the fuel filter and the injectors but am still missing so next I'm gonna change the whole coil packs to spark plug system (plugs wires and packs) in hopes that then it'll be fine but I still don't know if that'll work
