• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

    MA inspection with HPTuners

    I was wondering if anybody has a car tuned by HPTuners that has gone through MA state inspection recently. A friend of mine just brought his mustang through inspection and failed. He had a programmer that was causing the failure. He had to swap back to the stock tune to get it to pass. I...

    ZZP A-pillar pod

    Anybody tried the newest generation ZZP gauge pod? They say the new one clips in like factory and is textured like factory. Was wondering if the quality is any good.

    Got My New Wheels (pics on car added)

    My wheels came in yesterday. I have some Continental ExtremeContact DWS tires in the garage to get mounted on them. With the heavy sand on the roads still, I'll probably hold off for a couple weeks to put them on. Here are pics on the car. I know the tires need some shine and the calipers need...

    IAC Sensor

    Twice in the last week I've had my idle stick at about 1500 RPM. I was scanning the second time so I was able to get some more info on it. If I shut the car off and restart it, idle returns to normal. Commanded idle is 850 even though it's running at 1500 when it happens. IAC position runs...

    Losing Wideband O2 Sensors

    I have a PLX-AFR and I've had 2 sensors die in less than 4 months. PLX does not warranty sensors so I'm eating the cost of these. Anybody else had problems like this? I have it mounted about 4 or 5 inches downstream from the narrowband O2 so I don't think the position should be burning them...

    S1X idle setting

    I finished my S1X and Gen V install and the idle is not holding steady. I still have stock idle settings. The idle will start to fall off a little bit and then jump up to stop from stalling. It will only drop to low 700's rpm range and then jump up to a little over 800. This will hold steady...

    Strut mount keeps failing

    When I did my suspension over, I went with Monroe strut mounts since so many people had used them without a problem. After six months, the rear, right mount failed. I wrote it off as bad luck that I got one that failed early and replaced it. Now, three months later it's failing again. I...

    Gauge Pod Color?

    I want to put an A-pillar gauge pod in my car and want to make sure I get the right color. They offer them in colors for graphite, taupe and camel interior colors. Mine is gray leather. I'm pretty sure the one I need is for the graphite interior, but wanted to double check if anybody knew for...

    Thanks to Bio, Billboost, 01GTP, Reptile, Blue and others

    I just wanted to post a quick thank you to the above members in particular and many others here. You have answered my questions directly and provided information in other threads that I read while searching. When I found this site at the end of last year, I knew nothing about the modifications...

    A/C issue

    We lost the A/C in both of our cars this week. Her car is a 2003 Grand Am and it was low on freon. I noticed the clutch would engage for a couple seconds when the car was started, so I took a chance and charged it and now it works well. I think my GP is a bigger problem though. The A/C was...

    Logging MAF Freq.(Hz)

    I'm using HPTuners to tune my car and I've just about got the MAF dialed in by trial and error. In Gary's tuning guide, he shows logging the MAF frequency to give you a better idea where you need to adjust the table. I tried doing this, but it does not report any data when I select it into the...

    Wideband Bung Location

    I'm going to pull my headers this weekend and put 2 bungs in. I'm going to move the one for the stock O2 a little bit so it isn't pointing right into the floor anymore and I'm going to put one in for a wideband. My question is this: Can they be one right after the other about an inch or two...

    SSAC = SD headers

    I bought SSAC headers about a month ago. I bought them under the false impression that I might be getting a better quality header than SD. After I got them, I looked them over comparing to pictures of SD and believed that SSAC was selling SD headers as theirs. This past weekend, I saw a set...

    Replace Narrowband With Wideband?

    You guys talked me into buying a wideband for better tuning and after doing some looking around, I found this: http://www.plxdevices.com/AppNotes/PLXApp004.pdf I like the idea of being able to replace my stock narrowband with a wideband sensor. It would save me the trouble of pulling the...
