Thanks man! Now if only I could get it to stop smoking when it comes to idle... I picked up the seals last night, now all I have to do is figure out how an inexpensive way to get them onto my valve stems.

I am over in IL02 as well, 6-0318

Do you have a Krank Vent ? If not, might want to add / have that too ? I thought I read that it helps with smoking in general . .

You know Scott, you really should just give it up. Not only is smoking bad for your health, it's getting very expensive and makes your clothes stink. lol

Cool I got the 1000th post on the 100th page (if your on default post per page).

Anyone notice it doesn't show how many posts we each have anymore?

[RoVR4]

TODD... I had no idea you were going to the dyno this week! Why didn't you say something man!


The more I have been driving the car in its current set up, the more I think I ain't going to waste my time at the dyno... you're running a MAF-T, so you know what I'm talking about, the MAF-T has a default temp and I believe barametric pressure (BP) setting, so everytime the Outside Air Temperature (OAT), relative humidity (RH), or BP changes, you have to make "minor" adjustments. Hell, I have to change mine both morning and afternoon.

I am coming to think that the dyno gives you a good running tune at a specified set of parameters.... and as long as the track has the same OAT and RH and BP, you are good to go, otherwise you have got to adjust your tune on the fly

Got the Zex kit for the Focus, waiting on a CAI from AEM. Buddies are out right now getting plugs while I'm at work. Should have the kit installed once I get out of work. Anyone going to RSD this thursday?

Not till I fix my warped rotor, and do something about my "bright" timing, it must be bright, cause the bastard ain't never retarded
