[Macgyver]

Wow very nice. How does she run ?

 

[FLEXXX]

been driving it putting miles on motor. it runs good. stock tune in it currently, having some issues with the x4, Torrie has been great! the issue is with SCT waiting on them to help me out.  the exhaust sounds good  O0

 

[FLEXXX]

Put enough miles on that everything is settled suspension wise and re aligned it this morning.
as soon as SCT gets me my programmer back it is game on!!

Almost WooHoo Time!

Looking forward to seeing how well she rips. Im itching tonstart modding mine.

 

[FLEXXX]

Motor and turbo's are starting to free up and break in, the car feels faster everyday.

fedx dropped my tuner off and I got my first check out tune in it and it runs great!!

 

[FLEXXX]

Have a mild 18psi tune in it and it runs really well, cant wait to lean on it a little bit.

thinking I should invest in a diaper for the trans lol

 

[FLEXXX]

installed a UPR catch can and building a new up pipe from CAC to TB going to a 3" and adding a second W/M nozzle for the next tune.

it runs really well and I am happy.

it surprises a lot of people driving around town

When are you taking it to the track?

 

[FLEXXX]

well, I've taken it to the track 3 times already (pulling the dragster) I am still changing a couple things. I have a new w/m set up im putting in and a new up pipe and intake im finishing. (I just bought a house so im moving and tools are packed, kinda putting a delay on things) I will actually run it at the last couple races this year , so if the trans or PTU give up im not left without a tow rig for the dragster.

been having a misfire under heavy loads, did some diag found the stock coils are getting week.
ordered up some new SOS coils should be in this Friday.

 

[SHOdded]

What diags led you to weak coils?  Normally, weak plugs or injectors are at the root, rather than coils.

spark plugs are 3months  1800miles old ngk 1 step colder
watching injectors and afr's while counting misfires led me in that direction
swapped out coils with good known units misfire gone.
ordered new SOS coils

 

[SHOdded]

Was it random misfires or did you get it narrowed down to 1 or 2 suspect cylinders?

 

[FLEXXX]

the codes where, cylinder 6, random and misfire within first 1000 rpms on start up. I swapped the coil to cylinder #4 and it followed it there.
