Talking I've been Swamped!!

all i have to say is WOW! a friend gave me a big hand installing the 175/173s friday night and she smokes like a freight train and takes off like a jet now i'm stuck with the classic permagrin next, i have to send my chip back to tony for a reburn then start saving some money to keep that check engine light from coming on hehe. i'll put a few pix up sometime this week and i'll try to get a video or two also. i can't wait to get some dyno numbers in august to compare to my numbers from last august.

Ya can always use the classical fix for the CES light. Either remove the bulb or put a piece of black electrical tape over it. ROFLMAO

You don't have one dollar? Ground the MAP sensor through a zenier diode.

Congrats on the new squiters. I almost bought some 175/173's for mine, but decided to stay with split shots.

by saving money to stop the cel i meant saving for an upgraded hpop, turbo, and fuel system. who knows then that will be coming, so i can deal with the light for now. it only comes on when i try to turn day to night with a little smoke hehe

Haha...I get it. Saving money for more mods.

Technically, none of those mods will stop the CEL from coming on, they'll make it come on sooner.
