    Re: The Shelby CSX-VNT Owner's Thread

    What size diameter is our stock exhaust and is that OD or ID? I ask as I need to replace my cat or install a test pipe and want to make sure I get the proper size to slip over the OG pipe.

    Re: 89 CSX Overboost Shutdown

    No sir. To my knowledge this car was never up for sale. The original owner approached me at a Cars n Coffee that I took my GLHS to and asked if I would like to own another Shelby.

    Ended up being the turbo. A couple vanes would not open all the way op by hand. Installed new VNT and works perfectly now.

    NP. Took it out and let the turbo eat on a on-ramp and in third WOT it settles in around 11lbs of boost. Think the actuator arm could use an adjustment, but I am leaving it there as 11lbs is better...
