  1. I've been having trouble with my truck misfiring and running bad. I ran it the other day and it ran like crap and missed so bad that it went into reduced engine power and I had to wait to operate the gas again. It never threw a code but I pulled over and checked all spark plug wires and everything. Then the next day I come out and start the truck and it throws a code. It was a MAF code. Look at my MAF sensor and it has come loose. I clean it and tighten it up good and it runs fine. A couple days later it starts missing again. This has happend like 3x and every time after I unplug it and clean it then it runs fine for awhile then I have to reclean it. Is my sensor going out or is there a reason I have to keep cleaning it?

  2. I've got Obx Lt headers with no cats with a magnaflow di/do turned down past the rearend. The drone isn't bad and loud exhausts dont bother me, but this thing sounds like a 4x4 with straight pipes! It pops and crackles and sounds horrible under mid throttle, WOT you can't really tell because it is so loud and idling it sounds great. But when I punch it it sounds like crap. What can I do to make it sound better? Add another muffler in line with it? Different muffler? I don't really want to buy a corsa (i know thats going to be the first thing some people say) Thanks...I know alot of you guys run these headers.

  3. I like the Razorbacks even tho they aren't the best. Other than that any team SEC! Alot of teams like OSU go undefeated and are ranked high, but they only play like 2 ranked teams all year and they are like #18 and #24. But just about every week in the SEC there is a tough game. Take a team like arkansas where they play 5-6 ranked teams during the season and #1,6,10,19, and 21. They might not have a great record every year but they play the best teams.

  4. Just got the truck tuned with a different tuner today. My last tuner didnt hook up a wideband while he was tuning and my afr was at 11.5. It runs much better now and doesn't backfire under WOT...thank God its running normal again. Its been so long since I've been able to give her hell I can't remember what it felt like before so I don't know how much the tune helped performance wise.

  5. What is the smallest pulley you can run on the P1sc without spinning the head unit too fast? Right now I've got the 3.85 running about 8-9lbs of boost and im about to put a set of OBX LT headers on and figured that would lower my boost levels just a little bit, so I wanted to get a smaller pulley to increase boost.

  6. Ok so a little update. I started the truck up the other morning and it was still surging bad, so I took off the MAF sensor and cleaned it good with some MAF cleaner and I used a Q-tip lightly to clean it. When I turned the key it ran fine. It's still running rich because of the tune, but I've got a new tuner lined out and we talked for a good bit about the tune. When my last tuner tuned my truck he didn't use a wideband so I'm guessing he just estimated. I have a set of OBX LT headers on order and a tune in the near future. Luckily this isn't my Daily Driver so i'll be fine.
