Geez alot of crap has happened since I left. Sorry to hear the bad news (15.1) jack!!!!!

crazyalero · 11-14-2006, 01:47 PM

any updates???

jackal2000 · 11-14-2006, 01:49 PM

i dont feel like starting a new thread so i will update this one. i had the cat and o2 sensor replaced today. the stock cat didnt appear to be in too bad of shape to my dismay. at the very least i have eliminated 2 variables from the equation though. so far i dont feel much of a difference. its going to drive me crazy until the tune is up to par. when i get home tonight i will rescan for DTC and see if the 1133 is still showing up.....mtf

lol crazy, i was updating when you posted

crazyalero · 11-14-2006, 01:54 PM

thats crazy hope you get her running good soon

jackal2000 · 11-14-2006, 02:41 PM

i will say that the stock cat was a restriction compared to the new one.

crazyalero · 11-14-2006, 04:32 PM

does she still stumble taking off from idle??

jackal2000 · 11-14-2006, 04:56 PM

not really. but the idle is still crazy when in its in gear sometimes. also, when i was driving it home the rpm would slightly spike for no reason. i wasnt accelerating, just cruising and it would jump up about 200rpm randomly. it sounded like i was jabbing at the throttle but i wasnt. i also think my car got louder post cat install. its really quite ridiculous lol

i called another retailer of my rims for a second opinion on the weight of them and this guy said 27.2lbs, which is more likely the correct weight just from looking at them and having held both a stock rim/tire and one of these in each hand. still too heavy though!! so i gotta sell em lol

I feel sorry for you guys... having to pass emissions tests >_> here in SD you could be driving a frame with a seat, seatbelt and all the NECESSARY parts to make a car run and it'd be legal xD

Still sticking by that 27lbs? (BTW UPS decided to block my door with those 2 100lb boxes so I had to go around back lol)

just bite and bullet and pay for some lightweight rims.......don't forget about tires though as that can have just as big as a difference....

lol i never got the chance to weigh the rims without the tires. i did weigh the tire/rim combo fully inflated and it came to about 47.5lbs per. glad u got them ok.
