I FIXED IT. One of the plug wires wasn't on all the way lmao. It didn't light the CEL. I was talking to a friend at school today and I popped the hood to show him my sexay lt1. Then I saw the plug wire was hanging lol I'm so happy.
. I had intentions on doing a LE2 heads and cam swap this winter. After some pricing and thinking, I changed my mind. I'm going to hold off until next year so I can do it properly. Depending on funds, my goal is to get the engine rebuilt, heads, cam, intake, throttle body, clutch, suspension. Maybe I'll get a rear end too.
But for this winter, I'm going to get some new seats and remove the rear seats.
I still have the car. I break the tires loose in second gear at like 4500.
She likes to growl at the ladies now. But not the ugly ones that's for sure :D
I'm going to be converting to OBD1. I have a question about this now. There are differences in the cam between a 95 and 97. The 95 has a slight bit more of lift I think. Would it be a bad idea to use a 95 base tune on my 97? The internals are all stock. I'm not sure what else is different from the two. Any chime will be heard!
Dont forget to do the resister mod to the knock sensor or find an lt4 knock module for the computer.
As for the other questions... idk. My car is far from stock so when converting to obd 1.
My question is why do u want to convert to obd1 for a stockish car? If its about tuning software, there is software for obd 2.
LTXtech.com IS my drug...
Software and datalogging for obd2 is about $900 vs about 90 for obd1 lol. My car will be getting a heads and cam package in the future as well. I will be tuning it myself after a base tune when that time comes. There really isn't many people who touch the archaic lt1 up here that is talented unless it is 24x. There are a couple lt1 tuners but they are trash.
I will be replacing the knock sensor with a obd1 one.
If u get the cable from carputing.com u can use my loaner tuning laptop.
with that aside... what tuning do u need to do. Car is stock ish, right?
LTXtech.com IS my drug...
@Sahara54 currently has the computer
LTXtech.com IS my drug...
There really is no tuning to be done. It's just a bolt on car. I'd just like to have the ability to play with it ya know. I just can't justify the cost of OBD2 tuning and datalogging. In the end it just is too expensive for me. I should be able to get a obd1 computer for relatively cheap, software etc etc.
This is more geared toward the near future, not next week or the weekend after. More like a spring thing :D
I greatly appreciate your offer on the tuning laptop too :)
Ok

Ordering a MGW shifter in October.
I was going hard on it today and I saw the tach hit what I thought was 6k. It didn't feel like I hit any kind of limiter. I think it's just my tach is off slightly. I was logging it once and I swear I hit over 5600 and it only said 5100. The tach needle is around 950-1000 rpms and warm and logs say 750/850. Wonder if the needle is just slightly bent.
Oh well don't care. I'm gonna have me a MGW shifter soon!
I'll account for helping make that decision right on dude! MGW FTW!

How the hell do I fix this damn thing? Been like this since I bought the car. The metal clip is still there too. I tried opening it up more but nothing happened.

Borla XR1 or Pro XS?
Sent from my Galaxy S6.
I personally like flowmaster or magnaflow I have magnaflow on one car and I had flowmaster on the other then I put a Texas Speed Rumbler Catback but I have heard that Borla sounds good not sure on the Pro XS
I like the FlowMaster. But it just isn't working for me anymore.
The borla pro XS is a lot tamer than the XR1. And it does give more gains over the XR1. The 3inch in, dual 2.5 outflows the 3in 3 out... I saw a video on YouTube of it. I think it was a member here.. @Mystery_Bird I think the name was?

Another Borla XS
I don't think it would get crazy loud with a XR1, or even a Loudmouth if I mount it in back with turn downs.
@popo8 can I get a picture of your muffler setup on your camaro please? Go lay down and take a new pic for me ya pooper!
I've never hit the 5800 Rev limit in my car. I had it past the 6k mark of the tach today. I'm wondering if my pcm was tuned before?

http://ltxtech.com/forums/attachment...id=34145&stc=1I have the black one in my car I like it
I almost got one of those off Craigslist but decided not to. I drive with my hand above the shifter and in a pistol style with my hurst. But that knob is going with the shifter to a friend.
I decided on the second one. Now do I want a shift pattern [emoji38]

You should get a purple strap on for a shifter . It will be a natural feel for slamming gears
You know glittery pink is my favorite

Compiling a list for weight reduction.
-Rear seats out permanently and made into a bench for my room some day :D
-clean out the junk in my center console and glove box [emoji38]
That's all I got lmao. I want to keep the spare tire and jack because I daily the car. Incase i have a oh shit moment. When I go to the track, I'll just take it out along with the passenger seat.
What other kind of weight reduction can I do? Besides stripping the interior of course! ;) Anything that won't break the bank but help out a lot?
Sent from my Galaxy S6.
well stripping the interior is mainly the only thing you can really do that's cheap its mainly just the insulation and extra wires that you don't need to run you can also remove ac and heater and the heater core but the heater core youll have to make a block off plate for your firewall but other then that that's it.
