Re: Yearly Winter Project Thread

ive sent the reqeust to fb. thnx for the link... yea i later found out i had a bad spot in the tps so got a new one and that solved it mostly but i still have to get around to opening up my iac to clean it. im sure its dirty in there. she still runs near flawless tho, its my daily driver but i ran into wat i think is a leaking rear main which im not too excited about fixing haha and i cracked my y-pipe so im thinking about getting these hookers http://www.jegs.com/i/Hooker+Headers/520/2055/10002/-1

Re: Yearly Winter Project Thread

that is a good set up for your 305 idk about the 24lb injectors tho on your set up might be too much but you do need to get your chip reprogrammed for them because your computer thinks that it still has 19lbs on it. http://scotthansen.net/ send this guy an email of your set up and he will lead you in the right direction for reprogramming your chip

if you go to the first page of this thread look for the picture of the blue motor thats mine has my set up on it... my car stock with jus headers and gears was 15. with the new mods running really lean and a passenger in the car dropped to 14.3 so should be a 13 sec car when gets the tune all done.

stock 15. run


this was earlier this year idle around 900 with a good lil exhaust leak thats fixed now need a new video of it sounds way different now with the lil bit of stuff done to it.

Re: Yearly Winter Project Thread

do 150 for both injectors are 160 from southbay and the chip is 160 from summit so half the price on it.

I think their is a mathmatical formula for figuring out fuel needs. more than likely a thread in the TPI section of this site for it.
