look up chris's carb shop.thay are in dayton little far for u maybe but they do excellent work with these

+1 With Chris's he knows his shit!

EDIT:: like others have said, wait until you have more money to buy a better V8 example. i know its easy to replace a worn out LS1 if you buy a high mileage car---but the body will not be in nearly as good of shape, along with tons of other miscellaneous things that will wear out--the car will nickel-and-dime you to the point you'll wish you waited for a lower mileage car.

The car Gillbot posted isn't ragged out or nasty it's one of the nicest 98's I've seen, I also picked my 98 Z off a guy with 86k miles for cheap, they do exist you just have to look.

fucking win. this thread rocks

 

edit: and not because of that ogre in the picture

ROFLLLLLLLL!!!

At 4.2GHz without multithreaded apps, I would say definitely. Sounds like you got a monster overclocker, and most Wolfdale's overclock well, but not THAT well. Most need a lot of volts to go over 4GHz which usually needs massive cooling to maintain stability so definitely hang on to that chip for a while. I bet if you threw a waterblock on there and added 2-3 tenths more voltage you'd hit 5GHz. Congrats on the massive o/c.

 

On Edit: I'm thinking you got yours used as the egg has the e8400 for $170 which is about the price of the 9850 Phenom ($174). I'd probably take a quad over a dual for the same price, you know what I mean? But if you can grab a Wolfdale for $80, go for it.

I can get it into windows at 500fsb which is 4.5ghz but it's no where near stable. I don't consider 1.45v HIGH as I had my Q6600 at 1.55 for the longest time, I do however love ocing the piss out of this 8400 and even in multi threaded apps this is faster, I have quite a few i.e. Supreme Commander, and a few of the Photoshops and the dual at 4.2ghz smokes the quad I had at 3.6ghz hands down.

I have the same cpu -- and don't listen to the Intel fanboy crap. Yes, Intel is currently on top, but that doesn't make the AMD cpu a bad processor. It's all in bang for your buck, and the 9850 and now 9950 are pretty good bang for your buck cpus. My 9850 is in my gaming rig and runs everything flawless, including Crysis on Very High in 1600x1200. Have you overclocked the cpu yet? The 9850 is a decent overclocker. Mine does 2.94 stable on water with a minor voltage bump. Most people using the stock cooler and stock volts can get to 2.7-2.8 without issue.

 

I bet my 84$ e8400 at 4.2ghz will run circles around your AMD match that with a 60$ newegg ip35-e mobo and where are the AMD savings at???

Edit: Mines not watercooled either, just one big massive hsf combo, and minor voltage bump to get it stable at 4.2ghz

rice as shit.

 

I drive a WRX making 300awhp and don't have a FART PIPE because I don't want to look rice.

 

Here you drive an american muscle car and want to make it look rice. I hear Alteza's are mad tight

Don't forget the Vinyl yo, each sticker is like 20 RWHP!!!

You can buy the stuff and burn the EPROM yourself or log on LS1tech or Thirdgen.org and get advice from someone who knows how to burn the chip. Theres quite a few nice guys out there that if your will to learn they'll help you for next to if not free. The only thing your going to have to do is get the burning software and shit to burn the eprom and I can tell you now that it'll be alot easier then rewiring your car with the newer harness/pcm.

Edit: Lots of useful information here: http://www.thirdgen.org/techboard/diy-prom/

Also Phil, google is your friend. -=)

SpaceGhost you have mad issues with moderating an internet forum like you're fucking Hitler.

Calm the fuck down.

That's me! I saw some of y'all at the Dayton F-body dyno day back in 05/06 when I had the GTO.

Heh Todd it's me Chad, James brother

Hey man welcome to the board, I bet the car gets super good gas milage ? either way man, dont worry about all the f body hooligans. welcome!

He was an F-Body Hooligan at one time also Don't let him fool you.

Hey, Chadsvag, has it occured to you that, in spite of the shit he's taking, your friend has positive rep right now? Maybe you should chill and see where things go before you fuck it up for your buddy.

So I'm ChadsVag now? That's almost creative, and seeing that he's already on here I don't see how I "Fucked" it up for him. Thanks for the insight though, it really means dick to me coming from you, I thought you were a cool enough guy at the last CR outting but your Douche Baggery has shown through so please don't bother to post anymore and say hello to the Ignore User button. KThnxBye

it's a shame new people can't join and post here without the toolbag crew starting shit. o-well, typical CR i guess.

Nah, it's just the crew that owned ricer cars and bought f-bodies and think there king shit now that are completely retarded. The rest of CR is still the same.....

agreed.. wet kit is alot safer

No such thing as a SAFE way to use n2o, either way is about the same. My brother has a write-up or atleast links to each of there up and downsides, as soon as I can get a link to them I'll post it up in here.

Eeeeeh rednecks are funnnnyyyy

So are people that type on forums with gay cell phones.
