  1. Haha... I wonder how much boost you could get pvc to hold anyways...
  2. I used pvc and the silicon clamps from jegs on my old 5.0, was great and the price was a plus. If you're concerned, you could always run regular piping away from the compressor and then use pvc. Why the red green fab though?
  3. Yep. Inadvertently. I started the vid and went back to read cr's general opinions and to view other new forum posts. Heard it in the background. :lolguy:
  4. 3:55 seemed like a quicker pull. I would not own one with their current power options but if they had a turbo version it would spark my interest. Suby guru's - How close is the engine in one of those things to an sti? Possibly do a transplant?
  5. Eh... they have all been interesting in their own respect. At least they had some new ideas. I do miss the Subaru sound though.
  6. Par for the course, if it was a happy home she would not have mentioned it.
  7. I think for the cost of it, the benefits of the fuel and the fact that I want boost in the near future, that e85 would be worth it.
  8. Not saying that you or your source are wrong, but I read somewhere (no, not a lot of reading either) that e85 was closer to 105 octane? I read mostly on LS1Tech and if I have spare cash here in the next few months, I plan to go e85 anyways.
  9. Were you free standing with this shot or did you rest the camera on something or a tripod? Regardless Its a great picture, just looks like a tiny movement blurred some of the light based parts of the pic.
  10. You are most likely looking at a cluster problem. If you had a speed sensor issue, you would get a DTC light and the other speed sensors would give the cluster the correct information. Along with that you would see abs/traction control(if equipped) off as well. I had a '98 Explorer that I bought off of Alex(was El Borracho for a while), It was a great little beater, but occasionally it would freak out and the tach would go way north of the scale. I have a video of it somewhere, it would actually smack the speedo needle at times... lol.
  11. Can you get an inspection mirror and look back there to see if it is constantly contacting the carrier? To me, It looks like the one or both of the bearings went, causing the pinion to shift in the housing to catch the carrier like that. It's either something like that or whoever set the pinion depth is clinically retarded.

    power

    That sucks that you all lost power. Growing up in Westerville I can honestly say the power was only ever out by design (work on utilities or upgrades) In pretty much all the storms, whether summer or winter storms, we never lost power. I am in South Carolina, so we definitely never lost power here, but my parents are selling their house in Annehurst Village (NW from the Cleveland Ave/Main St. intersection) and the neighbors say the power did go out, however came back on less than 4 hours later. :gabe:
  13. You could download entire regions of the us map last fall... I tried it, then said hell with it when it raped my phones storage.
  14. I bought my parents one, they used it for a good solid month. They still use it, but not every day. It works great because it has access to more than just netflix.
  15. Well, good luck and make him pay in full or at least a percentage prior to work.
  16. +1. I have mixed feelings for you though. You knew he was shady before doing the work, right? Regardless, I wouldn't call david a gentlemen. Get your money or something of greater value.
  17. I noticed this last night. Sometimes when I watch gun reviews I will google the name/model of the gun to see what it sells for on average. I have tried a few gun names off the top of my head and they don't show shopping results. This was working less than a week ago...
  18. +1, I know I have seen a car with those wide rectangle tail lights before, I just cant remember the detail of what it was.
  19. The steam passages are attached to the cylinder heads. Go out and look at your car. Its a tube underneath the throttle body that bolts to both heads. Like evil8 said, the stock ls1 steam tube connects to all 4 corners and will not fit under the ls6 intake. I would use google or hop on ls1tech, there has go to be someone that has improvised before.
  20. That sucks. I'm sure the biggest thing the took from you is your peace of mind. I really hope that CPD and/or Karma gets them back.
  21. Yep. Looks like your average high end performance shop. http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/457384_379179948813309_741256801_o.jpg http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/170415_379176122147025_1648939894_o.jpg http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn1/s720x720/538287_379176152147022_1873192057_n.jpg http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/s720x720/600147_379179105480060_1794033876_n.jpg At least you provided the proper equipment to prevent flashburn.:dumb: Sorry, can't re size pics from facebook.
  22. I don't see why not. This is where I got them. These wheels and their finish is rock solid. I've convinced 10 others to buy from OE, all of whom had a perfect experience. http://www.oewheelsllc.com/Wheels_3/Wheels-for-Camaro_4/Corvette-C6-Z06-Wheels-Black_3
