Equal vs. Unequal Length Headers Info The sound recording part at the bottom is interesting. Essentially it's a plot of pressure measured off the rear bumper between an OEM header and a EL Killer B header. You can see the difference in sound waves pretty clearly. EL...

Best I could run all night was a 13.3 @ 106 MPH, and that's even with a 1.81 60' :( There were a lot of people there and my intercooler is unfortunately mounted on top of the engine. The turbo was pulling in 140 - 150 degree air and trying to cool it through an equally hot intercooler. Just...

Here's a video I took from the first USGP at Circuit of the Americas in Austin, TX. If you like it, please give the video a thumbs up. 8u4-SXwtmUU

I know the Tahoe is basically a permanent camper on a 1500 series truck, but do they have any specific issues? (MY08+) I'm contemplating an SUV and the Tahoe looks like a winner. Does the 5.3 respond to mods at all? Probably just do some simple stuff, tune, intake, maybe a muffler (ala Fred...

Volk CE28N 17x8.5 +50 Dunlop Star Spec 265-40-17 Much better ride quality than the OEM 18s and about 3 - 5 lbs. lighter per corner.

This is a rare white RS that I picked up here in Austin. It's a fun ride, really surgical and the engine is phenomenal (8200 RPM H6).

Since my Dad wants to better my German shitboxes I thought I'd fire up a new project. I want to build a hypermiler out of a mid 90s Civic hatchback. Just think it'd be a fun, cheap project and would let me thin the herd a bit since it'd be the new daily driver. What say ye? My old Si got...

Took my 2011 STI to be tuned up in Plano. Here's the results, the lesser curve is the Off-the-Shelf (OTS) map, and the better curve is with a custom tune at the same boost pressure. 298whp / 343 lb. ft. on a Mustang dyno.

So the sound of a H4 have grown on me ... to the point that I'm finally putting a downpipe and exhaust on my STI and going to stage II. Generally this puts out about 300whp / 320wtq. ... which should be FUN for an AWD car. Downpipe came in today, waiting on the exhaust and gaskets. Also...

I bought a 2011 Subaru WRX STi 5-Door in Plasma Blue Pearl as my first new car. It has some interesting features, namely how 'wired' everything is. 1) I can switch between 9 - 10 lbs. of boost and an economy mode (Intelligent Mode), to a Sports Mode that runs slightly more aggressive 15 lbs...

Here's some pictures from the Buda Gearheads car show this weekend. The Austin F-Body club was there with about 30 new Camaros.

Played around on Photochop. - Volk TE37 - Lowered - Exhaust - Debadged Add a front air dam and a NASCAR style rear spoiler and you got a pretty cool truck.

My friend's 4.8L 2000-ish model GMC has eaten through a number of transmissions thanks to a healthy nitrous shot and some bolt-ons. If I were to open the motor up with a decent cam, intake, and header back exhaust would I be really pushing the transmission? :dunno:

I got bored and built myself a truck on Chevy's website. It was a 2wd regular box 5.3L single cab LT with very few options, the damn thing was $27K! I was thinking of maybe getting a truck, but to hell with $27K for a basic truck. Since when were they so damn expensive?
