Please DO NOT Post In The General Section

From this point on until otherwise briefed, posting in the general section of Performance Tech is prohibited. The only thing to remain here will be the stickies. We would just delete this section, but that would cause unintended results.


The majority of the threads created can appropriately be placed in one of the Performance Tech sub-forums or Technical; and the posting of them here is detrimental to the activity of said forums. If you have any questions about where you need to place your thread PM me or one of the other mods.


For the most part you all have caught on without this post, but there have been a few habitual offenders that forced me to say this.


Everyone will get a couple of warnings from here on out, after that I just start deleting threads.

Again if you have any questions, PM me or one of the other mods.

        Thanks man

        Maybe headers will help me hear or obtain backfire. I guess i will get one afterall (last mod for this engine).

          I really don't think the headers will help. I have cam, i/h/e etc. etc. and I still get a little bit of backfire. I think it might just be soem misfire due to my distributor being messed up.

            Strange... I never really thought backfire was something that was desirable... to each his own, I guess!

            I would think a quality header (you only need one) would probably reduce the chances of backfire, since they should increase steady exhaust flow.

            Backfire is the explosion of prematurely ignited or unburned fuel in the manifold or exhaust... Not really a good thing, if you ask me! excalibur02, did you play with your ignition timing at all?

              I sure as hell don't think backfire is desirable. I'm really hoping to get it fixed asap.

                nah cheif i didnt do anything to the ignition timing

                i started hearing it after i got the 2 1/2 inch piping wit the apexi n1 i got and then it got a little louder after i got the dc headers put in

                and i have been taking it the mechanic and it runs fine he says and no he dont lie to me he installed my headers for free and does a bunch of shit for me so he is cool wit me

                i will be changing my spark plugs and the wires soon maybe after all this snow goes away so i dont get like frost bite n shit

                peace
