  1. generally FI will be the same fuel economy in the city if kept in vaccum. however, i dont know who buys a blower to stay in vaccum and out of boost lol. highway was increased for me, most likely due to the roots type blower having just about no parasitic draw. i get about 18 mpg @ 80 mph. i have a 3.73 rear, 58lb injectors. stock other than 80mm TB and CAI with the maggie i got arround 17.5 mpg going 70 (on the maggie tune). my average of mixed highway and city is like 12.7 over 600 or 700 miles
  2. id be happy to build anybody anything they could imagine like that, cept you can have normally sized pockets
  3. i am, but its hard to tell ya without being able to diagnose it. the little bit of fuel in there is normal, but it sounds like something is obviously not working properly. it does kinda sound like the solenoid, or maybe somethings interfering with it via a cut in a wire or something.
  4. ooo my bad i didnt think about the new bodystyle. sorry im still adjusting to the fact that we've been replaced lol
  5. lets do it! you, me, mario...... and we go from there lol. escalades come on 17s stock..... what year and any specific truck did you pull them off of? ill just buy two at cost
  6. nice job!! so your on stock heads and stock internals? i damn well should be , im just too lazy to wait in moroso's long lines for their crappy track . maybe if i had some slicks..... what fits over the alumisports?
  7. id say do the eradispeeds, but the back drums pose a problem. for a truck with 4 discs stock, thats a great upgrade. but i think going up in size in the front would make the back look strange. i say go alumisports or bust
  8. zippy! your still alive!! you never told me what to pay you for the tune??
  9. thats my guess. girlfriends dad is a sargent, i told him the story, he took the badge numbers...... this should get interesting lol
  10. well i saw this sucker online, and noticed it said "production car" under its description. turns out 399 are being made. 300 for US, 33 for canada, and 66 for europe. i threw an order in to GM and crossed my fingers. i guess i got lucky and they allocated me one. so shes coming! i cant wait! tell me what you guys think of it
  11. i just want to remind everyone that being educated on your states laws and your rights are incredibly important. i just read a thread about a fellow SS member (think he drives a VMax) who was arrested for street racing on his way to work at 2 am(illegitimately). well (knock on wood) this same thing just about happened to me today. i was accused of "highway racing" because i went from 10-50 WOT. not only were there no cars in front of me, but none within 100 ft. i might add the speed limit was 45..... and i didnt spin my tires(they chirped the 1-2 tho). right after i stoped WOT a car pulled out and cut me off. so i braked, let about half a car of space and flipped on all 4 HIDs. the guy moved to one of the other 3 empty lanes . this officer tried writing me 6 tickets,(not including the criminal offense of "drag racing") but as i talked to him about each offense, they suddenly became "warnings". i guess he knew that he couldnt write them, i dont think he expected me to know anything about anything. after 50 minutes of harrassment, i got 3 window tint tickets. im not complying with the tickets, so it will cost $220. its $60 less if i "comply" and take it all off. but i figure its like $80 to retint my windsheild and two front windows. all i know is im glad i didnt sit back and get 6 tickets i would have to fight. how in the hell am i supposed to drag race myself?? he agreed with me that nobody was racing me.... like 3 other units showed up for the show, it was pretty rediculous. i dont think comming up to the back of my truck with his hand on his gun was totally neccesarry either
  12. chase, are they actually races or people getting their asses handed to them?
  13. give ya $100 for the idlers i will come hand you the money, im in ft. laudy. would love the overhead pod without the gauges
  14. haha i just got pulled over and ticketed 5 mins ago!! no tint tickets, and i have 5% on everything and 20% on the windsheild now lol. BTW it was a state trooper
  15. if you go with some good shocks, it rides pretty good. its a stiffer ride, but i dont think many would have a problem with it. now on the stock shocks, its pretty jarring. its also a good idea to do the Mr.P mod to the front bump stops. i did it and i highly recomend it http://www.silveradoss.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=26296
  16. i have 30%. all u can see is my knuckles on the wheel ive gotten pulled over three times with it, not one cop said anything
  17. i use a claybar. but some of it i waited too long to get off, and its burned itself a home in my fender liners lol. my corsa tips are also custom...... black speckled chrome
  18. nice! i think you should get TWO yeehaws!! you have also set the record for "most attatched images"
  19. nice upgrade, i love it! ive been wanting to do the same thing, but couldnt find anyone that would sell me just the callipers. may i ask where you got them and the $$? maybe a p/n? thanks man
  20. i agree with you Mr.P.... have replaced a crap load of piston rings on vettes and f-bodys.... its generally arround 550 whp that stuff starts breaking. but its almost always the cast pistons and/or rings. ive only seen one broken crank(on our dyno big mess), and it put down like 825 to the wheels (incase ppl are wondering, Biturbo lingenfelter z06 ). the mid 04+ rods are a very nice piece, and IMO the floating assymbly helps keep things together better as opposed to the press-on. BUT mr.p, i disagree with the block statement. the kind of power it takes to break the LQ9 block (assumming everything is done correctly and running correctly) is absolutely insane
  21. no i didnt notice any interference, it feels exactly like it should: close to stock. when the lifters were new(not pumped up) they were identical in hieght to the stockers. i guess when they pumped they changed.... only thing i can think of. all i know is i hate them, my truck sounds louder than a duramax. my girlfriend still thinks i have a diesel lmao
  22. yea its gotta be that.... i didnt think they would be the same, my engine builder brought them to me and told me to use them. now i have to take everything apart, and put those GM Racing ones in. at least i can reuse ARP bolts lol
