Those drunken slurrs were help? :P
That is indeed a fine feat of tweaking and testing
With that 2.2" pulley it must sound like a cat in the fan belt when you drive by

Hans, that'* your old MAF sensor in there. Thanks to you, too, bud.

Pdad, Eric and I will do another 'drive-by' vid. I've heard from DJ recently that it'* insanely scary and obvious on the freeway. And that was BEFORE the most recent work and pulley drop.

Bill, questions for you:

Are you running your winter or summer plugs and what gap?

Aaron, you can't even begin to plan your car based on my plugs. What I'm running for plugs and gaps is a test. I have to see how they hold up in various conditions. Plugs have nothing to do with any of this.

You're looking at a post by a guy who changes plugs 2 or 3 times a year because of various changes in the car.

Yeesh. I feel like I need a disclaimer on my posts. This was a curiosity question. I'm not running out to do it to my car!

Edit: I know you're concerned about me.. I'm slowing down. Plans are on hold until I get a bunch of maintanence tasks out of the way, plus I get a better understanding of the effects my changes are going to bring...

I was curious because I know you run summer/winter plugs because of temp. Considering the amount of pressure and heat it was generating, I was curious if you went much colder despite it being winter.

I'm running TR55'* gapped at .055" right now, because it'* flowing so well. I'll pull 'em in April to see how they're doing. I have a pregapped set of TR55'* at .055 and a set of TR6'* gapped at .050" standing by.

Does this mean you were able to figure out the lean problems by the way?

I'm sorry but I have to say this


HAHAHAHAH I saw it first.
(end gloat)

I'm currently running a x.x" pulley. ON a 1995 SUPERCHARGER. Does that meet with your approval?
