J&S I thought you weren't able to get it to work with your application

 

[SeR_Cyclops]

Where did you get your J and S? They are hard to come by these days.

J&S I thought you weren't able to get it to work with your application

I am running a Microtech now, and Steve @ NSN is helping us, so I am sure we will get it to work.

It happens. I just need to give them my phone number and have them call. But then I wouldn't hear my phone ring.

<3 every MS3er who makes fun of the poor quality of the MSP engineering.

Yea they act like the MS3 isn't even related to the MSP. Let me see...

-FWD
-Econobox
-Turbo dies early
-Engine blows at its own leisure
-Motor mounts suck

Yea the MS3 is totally better than our POS MSP.

probably putting in my SSAFC tonite/tomorrow. still waiting on the cable to tune the AFC... but... i'm betting it has the stuperstock (intentional) map, or another relatively stock map on it.. so I should be OK for now.

That's what I was thinking and that is what the directions said...but I'm not sure if it really does. It will be fine to install and drive the car, but once you get the cable I would load the map yourself just to make sure.

 

[Wagonbacker9]

the superstock isn't loaded factory... mine is used.

I was looking at rods for the lx...

anyone know anything about the k1 technology rods?? i have arias 8.5:1 pistons.. would those rods work with them? and which bearings would everyone go with?? acl or clevite??

 

[Wagonbacker9]

as long as they're stock length.

 

[Dpwhitehead1]

as long as they're stock length.

something i've not really ever understood.. what's the difference between the stock lenth and long rods?(other than the actual length)

Well I got the itch again. Was browsing the Corksport section this morning and found their 80mm exhaust that I had read about. Never heard a sound clip until today and that thing is AWESOME. I am not sure if I want to swap my Vibrant for it yet since it could prove to be a hassle, but it got me thinking about some other stuff as well.

I am curious about motor mount inserts and the CS downpipe. I was thinking about getting the downpipe a while back but didn't want to worry about upgrading the mounts and dealing with a bunch of vibrations. So if I just go with inserts rather than the entire mount, would I be able to get the downpipe and the 80mm exhaust (if I choose to) without having the risk of breaking the exhaust and being told by CS that I'm SOL?

the vibrations arent too bad with the inserts, but they wont do much good if the stock mounts are torn. i have inserts in the front and sides, and a medieval full mm in the rear. the vibrations are pretty noticable when the car is idling sometimes, and when the ac is on. if you get their inserts they will warranty the dp and exhaust i think.

Tried to do some window tint today. the process didn't really kick my ass too much, but those damn rear corner windows did lol..

went through a whole roll of film just to get some peices that trimmed right and fit.. still didn't look all that fantastic.
ill be taking it to a professional to get it done me thinks.

ah well. the positive, now i have a squeegee that gets all the way to the bottom of my windshield. lol.
