Thanx for the pictures,i installed them this past weekend.

roadrunner-r

You cut your bump stops to short,thats what happened to me. This past weekend, I installed some sportline thow.

roadrunner-r

Autozone has two different ones. A coil and strut compressor,which would be the one to use?

roadrunner-r

Nope i never said that,you need to re read it!

roadrunner-r

No, it comes in peices i clamped everything. It might not look like a AEM. Too me i have the same performance and sound of one. Its better to look stock and kick some (removed). Iam telling you guys you should try it you wont be disappointed! That dont have a CAI

roadrunner-r

No, i have a K&N cone air fliter at the end of the pipe just like a AEM/injen/TRD cai. MY INTAKE doesnt hit the the fog light nor does it have a CEL light. HEHE

roadrunner-r

I used the top part of the stock intake box and it consits of 3' pipe.Sounds great,deep and it stands up to its bark.http://www.imagestation.com/album/?id=4288722363

roadrunner-r

With no problems?

Where can i find a valve like that? I been wanting to dual mine off too. I have a borla,and the resonator chopped,i think it will be loud. So i was thinking of useing a 1.5 pipe to quit it down.

roadrunner-r

stock "hello"

roadrunner-r

I would perfer a longer on if anybody knows about one.

roadrunner-r

I noticed better throttle response in the lowend. 2500-4500. Also in the topend as well.

roadrunner-r

Thankyou for the pictures, is the drop even? Or is the back alittle higher?

roadrunner-r

I would likek to have a switch to turn it on and off. I did this on my oo GTP,ran the fans with a switch.A diagram would help.

roadrunner-r

ragingfish,I wan the temp to stay low get it. The cooler the more Hp its gonna make,and yes i have a custom CAI.

roadrunner-r

Thats what iam trying to figure out. How to wire it. He told me that restior is telling the ecu the car is cool to add timing and fuel,and thats why i need the fans to turn on soonerSES = Service engine soon,same thing as CEL

roadrunner-r

I was going to use the pvc,but i felt that it wouldnt help that much as i stated. The Maf is 2 3/4,Thats why i didnt use the PVc. I use to own a 2000 GTP. It had a blower,underhood temps were hotter.(vibe) I used a PVC pipe to make my CAI it never melted.

roadrunner-r

Where did you get all this information?I want my fans to turn on sooner,I was talking to Transtior(matrixowners.com)He said i need to put a restior on the coolant sensor to tell the ecu the motor cooler,and get the fans to come on sooner. To get more timing! I havnt been able to get ahold of him any...

roadrunner-r

I think he is mistaken! you cant use the Apex-i FC on the 2003 celicas or vibe gt or xrs. Also what Black trd said. There is one for the vibe gt.The guy that is sponsored from Kerra racing says he has one. I talked to him on AOl. He said he had cams,turbo,etc... He said he ran mid 13Iam not sure tho...

roadrunner-r

Pictures would help,also does anyone know what the the t-stat is?180-195??? OH ya what temp does the fan come on? I ask alot of questions

roadrunner-r

So how much stiffer is it from stock? Do you have any pictures?

roadrunner-r

What are you talking about

roadrunner-r

Hey where are the pictures

roadrunner-r

Hoes is the ride with springs with oem 17" wheels?Also how much of drop do they give you?I know there are rated a 1.8 front and 2.1 rear,my question do they go lower then they claim?What about the struts will they hold up?

roadrunner-r

This was a 350 i asked him,hes a friend of mine.

roadrunner-r

What mods do have on your Iroc? I ran one lastnight (auto) from a stop by the end of the 1/4 i had about 1.5 wagons on him. He had a exhaust and K@N. What do Iroc's run in the 1/4 stock?

roadrunner-r

I think i figured it out,iam letting the clutch out to fast. Is it just me or this clutch is slow?

roadrunner-r

I used sanding drums and then i used some fine grid sandpaper. It smoothed it (By hand)Oh ya i did everything by looking at it,thats what did to my LS1 and gained 5rwhp on the dyno and 2lbs of torque

roadrunner-r

True,i wish it was like that i wouldnt be having this problem.

roadrunner-r

Dermal baby!

roadrunner-r

MADBILL,So what your saying the higher i try to shift it dont matter its always going to fall between lift and no lift. like i said the only way shift it smooth is ride the clutch and it shifts smooth and stays in lift. To me thats killing the clutch thow. What do you think?

roadrunner-r

The MAF is in its stock place. I just used a 3" rubber cupling,and used that to adapt to the 3" hose. I was gonna go all out and make a one out of PVC pipe. TO me it was pointless to go to a 3" their. Going threw all that trouble. It already 2 3/4 there ant much resirction there.I thi...

roadrunner-r

Which mounts do i use this stuff at? I heard some guy use 3m window gunk stuff from autozone. maybe your right iam gonna try this.

roadrunner-r

I try shifting at 8300 which is redline,and when i grab secound. It in between lift and no lift and it jerks back and fourth.This at about 6150-6200 thats where lift starts it pisses my off sometimes. On all other gears its fine just frist to secound is a pain . Does anyone else get this? If i shift...

roadrunner-r

I epoxyed this hole.

Here are some pictures,i used epoxy to smooth out the whole from the PVC. I just put on a Mini K@N fliter on it. AS for performance,it has better throttle responce,and to me it gained some torque between 2500-5000. IT helped topend as well. I also did the Coolant bypass as well. I recomend doning it...

roadrunner-r

It is rice hello its a 4 banger I got an all motor mid 11 sec LS!So i no the difference hehe

roadrunner-r

My resonator is cut as well so iam not worried about it.

roadrunner-r

Okay so are you going to go out and upgrade your pipe to 2 1/4? Now

roadrunner-r

I went to a muffler shop,and they told me that 2 1/4 would'nt help. It would only help the sound,but not by much. I will be just waste'ing my money

roadrunner-r

Thats right baby iam getting Nitrious soon

roadrunner-r

Okay what pulgs should i get again,someone pelease explain? GT vibes come with denso irdium's right? SO why change it? Does anyone know which plug i need,to be one step colder?

roadrunner-r

Yes it does,when you motor is cold and you rev it. It pops doesnt it? Due to the fact the ecu is dumping more fuel to warm the motor up right?

roadrunner-r

But of course

roadrunner-r

Ill keep you informed as time goes on

roadrunner-r

Not at WOT it shouldn't POP. Just when its cold not warm. I Have a o2 Trans am LS1 (modded). It pops when its cold,and also pops when i shift when its cold not (warm)My T/A has a full exhaust. Headers/ORY-pipe/magnaflow. Like i said it pops only when cold.I still thinks its a rich condition,it shoul...

roadrunner-r

Its 2 1/4 right?
