    Super Lean!

    Okay, I posted in here a few months ago that when I had my car dyno'd they told me it was off the chart lean. He said that with the amount of retarding the ECU was doing I could have up to another 30 horsepower locked away. That's wierd considering Protege's run pig rich so I didn't think much...

    SRT-4...Yay or nay?

    Well, I'm debating on getting another car that is a better base for speed. I don't want to spend $6K to break 250-300 hp. One of the cars I've looked at a bit is the SRT-4. Do any of you guys have any experience with the cars? Are there any hiccups the car is known for (ie. the MSP's LSD...

    Oil Change Stuff

    When you typically get your oil changed at a lube place, do they grease any bearings? I've been changing my oil on my own but I don't grease anything. Do I need to?

    Why am I Lean?

    Went and got my car dyno'd the other day and the A/F reading was off the chart lean. It was around 17:1 to 18:1 until the RPM got to 5500. After that point the A/F ratio drops down to a normal 12:1 - 13:1. Why is it doing this? I thought maybe it was the probe in my exhaust but the guy at...

    Ram 2500 questions

    My friend recently got a 2001 Ram 2500 turbo diesel. I was wondering, does anyone know what kind of boost those trucks push stock? Is there any easy way to play with the boost settings to get better fuel economy? I've heard there are performance chips for the trucks but are they worth the money?

    AEM or K&N?

    AEM from what I understand has the dry charge filter that uses just regular water to clean. With K&N you have to buy the recharge kit and re-oil the filter. Are the power gains about the same from both? Is K&N a better filter? Which should I go with?
