Small ones! Seriously, size matters in a turbo, but just asking for size doesn't mean anything. There are several different measurements. You have inducer and exducer diameter for both the turbine and the compressor wheel; the relationship is termed "trim". You also have the Area / Radius...

I think catch cans are a good idea, no doubt. However, from an engineering perspective, if you don't have port injection, then you can use late injector timing especially during periods of what some people term 'Miller Cycle' to deliver fuel back into the plenum which can then 'wash' the...

There's a search function. Just look for "steeda" in titles. I'll help you out with this: https://www.explorerst.org/threads/lowering-springs-pros-and-cons.2110/#post-31023

Thanks for that emoji-filled unintelligible post about US immigration, Canadian duties, government malfeasance, crime families, and yes, even undigested hamburger. Stay frosty and layoff the meth @F=MA!

I think you need to think about your goals first. If you've read any of my posts, I'm a "bang for the buck" guy. You can spend thousands of dollars on downpipes, intakes, exhaust and installation of the above. However, a good non-canned tune from an outfit like ZFG will get you 70-90hp on a...

Will you be adding a cover of some sort just in case you need to carry something in back?

Good for you! I'm sure they'll be happy to make a trip south to pollinate there.

I'm waiting for coilovers. I'm sure they're on the way.

Excellent write up and thanks for the info. So, I'm thinking Steedas up front and H&R in the rear. From your description, that sounds like a good compromise between the two. Of course, you could reverse that for a bit more oversteer. Thoughts?

That's another possibility, good catch!

I can certainly understand the reasoning to use it occasionally...but several on this site seem to keep the key in there always. thanks for reply

It's a very sad tail. Hopefully you won't be the butt of too many jokes. I have a haunch you'll get it fixed before you go into arrears.

That's why we need more info. If the engine/exhaust is cold, you wouldn't immediately see steam on start-up because the exhaust hasn't warmed up. The combustion chamber though heats up immediately, so it could also be a head gasket issue which you could identify by smell. With an oil smell, I'd...

Looking at the two designs (FebFab vs AFe), it wouldn't even be a choice of which I would purchase- AFe.

It's been stated on this forum in scores of threads....If you're looking to enhance performance, get a tune. Period. The absolute best bang-for-the buck. Once you have that in place, then you can spend money on other things. Be very skeptical of manufacturers quoting hp figures of their...

Need more info. Is the engine cold in these videos on startup or has it been driven for awhile and then restarted while warm? What was temp outside? How many miles on engine? Notice any oil consumption?

As to your first question- I'm not saying that an aftermarket part might not be more effective. Only stating what you would look for in order for that item to enhance performance. A far as your second question...huh?

You already have a cold air intake. The only reason for buying something else would be to decrease pressure drop to the turbos. That can be done by either a less restrictive air filter, or increasing the surface area of the filter. The former can be done with a performance filter, the latter...

May I ask why anyone leaves the key in the vehicle and then enters and exits via the doorpad? What am I missing as to the benefit?
