Re: Wazoo to the rescue AGAIN
We have also changed out clutch, replaced Dual Mass Flywheel with lightweight aluminum one, changed stock gears to 4:10's, headers, exhaust, installed shift light, LED interior and exterior lighting, weatherstripping. Whatever somebody needs, we can usually take care of it. The amount of talent and knowledge in our group is amazing! If we spend most of the time on your car, you get to buy the pizza.

Is it bad form to tow mine down and drive it back? I'll buy the best pizza in the area. Best wings to go with it.

Re: Wazoo to the rescue AGAIN
Really just tuning and drivability type stuff. Though I'm sure I could always find things...

Re: Wazoo to the rescue AGAIN
Thanks for the feedback, was a bit curious because as we know repairs can go wrong and people can try to take advantage of each other. However, that comradery and support is just amazing, hats off to you guys.
Don't quite have the space currently to host, but we're planning a shop for the next house. When I was in HS I had several friends who were also into cars. Our house was the place to work on them because my dad is a car guy too so we had all the tools and experience. Now my brother and I still work on cars together, but the type of fun you guys are having is a place I'd like to get back to. |

Re: Wazoo to the rescue AGAIN
Tuning is a bit tricky. Even my limited knowledge tells me wide band O2 sensors (welded in to exhaust manifold or headers), ability to read mixture, timing, etc., a lot of knowledge and experience and ability to burn EPROM.

Re: Wazoo to the rescue AGAIN
Sorry. Not that kind of tuning. The old fashioned boring kind. Just the tweaks to get it running right again.

Re: Wazoo to the rescue AGAIN
Already done. And wires. Coils. Vacuum lines. etc etc.
Just think it needs some fine tuning to be it's best.
