thanks.

well ive gotten a lot done in the past few weeks, both good and bad things have come about.

i had to pull the dash from the car again because the running lights suddenly stopped working. i fixed that problem and got everything back in. i changed the diff fluid with mobil 1, the tranny with redline mt 90, and bled the brakes. i had to buy new sending units for the gauges because the current ones were not reading. i added a 6k hid kit, yellow high beam bulbs, new lug nuts, a broadway 270mm rear view mirror, new general exclaim uhp tires, a 3 inch flex section on the exhaust, an aem uego wideband, and some other little things. i also added a 150 amp breaker in place of the 80 amp inline fuse i had on the battery power wire.

after a lot of little problems here and there, i got it running as you can see in the video above. i drove the car 2 and a half hours to las vegas to get it tuned. Doug at Doug's Dyno Power in Henderson, Nevada does a great job and I recommend him to anyone. The car was super rich with the AFRs in the low 9's on the first pull. car made 75whp on the first run! haha. after a little bit, cylinder six stopped firing and I had to get the car off of the dyno because other people were waiting. I must have loomed the engine harness too tight, causing a wire to break. i ran a new, temporary wire from the ecu to the ignitor which fixed the problem. The car had made 186 whp on 15 psi on 5 cylinders, and once fixed, it made 249whp at 11 psi on a mustang dyno with the afrs still pretty rich in the low 11's - high 10's and revving to only 5k. The car had been sputtering before due to the 6th cylinder not firing. This sputtering masked the boost cut that was happening due to the stock map sensor. 11 psi ended up being where we stopped until i can get a gm 3 bar. perfect for a low boost setting but no where near what i want. i got everything loaded up and headed out to north carolina. about 5 hours in, two of the driver's side rear wheel studs snapped off at about 80 mph. i pulled over in time and the wheel was about to fall off. after the tow truck fees and the crazy labor prices, i realized if it breaks down again i wouldnt have enough money on me to fix it. i drove the car back and parked it til summer. definitely sucks but this will give me time to save money for more parts and ill be able to fix every little problem this summer.

pics and dyno vid will be posted shortly

yeah ill change it once i get everything else working right. there is a pretty noticeable vibration coming from somewhere in the drivetrain. the clutch needs to be replaced for sure and possibly the tranny too.
