Fell in love with my car all over again.

He was surprisingly ok with getting beat by a 4 door cobalt. Gave me a thumbs up

I know this probably belongs in war stories but I don't have a video and don't think you should post in there without one
I wonder what he had done to it. I doubt it was still on stock turbo if it kept up with you.

I'm not super familiar with the evo's and what they can do on the stock turbo, but I have a feeling if I was on 93 he would have pulled me. But....

E47 term2 tune took care of that.

I bet they do.... but those angled rear window decals take away 15hp.

Uploaded my aggressive timing tune for the E47 this morning, but forgot to disable a couple codes that knock the tune back to the low octane tables(which are almost stock...) So my drive to work was BORING. The P0128 code I forgot to disable made me unable to use AC.

Just finished uploading the corrected tune with the codes disabled, including a gas-cap related code I've had since I put E in it.

Is it eating away at the seal of the gas cap?? Or just random code?

From what I understand and have tested, E evaporates a lot more slowly than gasoline. The code is a "slow leak/low flow" code for the EVAP system so I figure because there is not a normal amount of pressure build in the tank, the EVAP system isn't working properly.


But that's just a theory, what do I know? I've suspected my EVAP solenoid to be bad for a while anyway so I may as well just delete the whole system anyway...

Find out if its bad, pop the gas cap off. Wait a couple mins then try to start the car, if it stumbles you have a bad EVAP solenoid

Found my sub had flipped upside down in my trunk at some point, and decided to make something a little more secure. Made a reverse mount sub box out of an old counter top I had in my garage. It was made from heavy duty MDF, so I figured "why not?". The box is a sealed one thats secured underneath. It sits inside the spare tire compartment. (No spare tire obviiusly). Need to cut the carpet/chip board OEM insert to go around the sub, and figure out where to mount my amp. But i think it came out good.
