    My P5 white smoke at all times???

    Well, it is either a leaky valve or piston rings, not much else that could be going into the motor and being burnt, especially if your head gasket is good. Timing is good? No knocks or pre-detonation? When was the last time you filled up, maybe bad gas......

    Alternator interchange

    correct, it may have sounded like you can use one because you have an aftermarket ecu. But this is the style on cars before ecu was in them.

    Alternator interchange

    Many a forums and user will say the opposite is true. Maniac claims you can just swap this one in, but there are peeps on the forum that say a HO alternator fried their ecu....... Who is to believe?

    Alternator interchange

    There is a company, missing link audio, that says they can make a module to do exactly what we Are looking for. I haven't contacted them yet. I was just thinking if there was a way to DIY, that way it would be affordable and available to build on the forums. I will see if I can contact Steve...

    Alternator interchange

    Capacitors are not a solution to this problem, those things work well for small systems but large system just eat those things. Brian, yeah I thought about that once I go turbo, and do stand alone ecu but seems like a lot of work just for a bumpin system lol. I did some research, Gm and...

    True, I was the same way and am in the same boat. I will be selling mine in the next 6 months to a year......or I may keep here and do a full motor turbo build and have it for track use.

    Need to replace my rear struts, should I go with OEM parts or aftermarket?

    When I was shopping around I was able to find the fronts for 50 a piece but the rears no were about 100 a piece. So you would be looking about 300 bucks or so for the whole set. Last time i checked rock auto was the cheapest for KYB and they we like 53 a piece front and rear. But I remember...

    Alternator interchange

    Now I know there is not an easy way to have a high output alternator in our cars. However, has anyone looked into getting a higher output made for a different model IE tribute, mpv, ect..... I guess the issue is the ecu controls the amperage output relative to the battery so that it can...

    Question about MSP struts

    I agree totally, The stock MSP "Blues" are not really the same as the tokico HP's, I have had both, and they both feel different. As far as going with either the HP kit or The Illumina kit, neither one of these will require different length endlinks, the stock p5 endlinks will work with no...

    Question about MSP struts

    Agreed, I just mounted up my kit yesterday. It is nice to have a spring and a shock that are matched and built for each other. I got them from street unit, and had a coupon code found on the internet, for 515 shipped. New endlinks ran me about 50 bucks for all four, as you will probably have to...

    Not done today, but will be done tomorrow. Putting on tokico HP's and matched tokico springs. Also new endlinks on all four corners. I will post some before and after pictures for sure.
