If it is an oil filled canister type coil than it does need a ballast resister, the canister must be mounted very close to vertical also according to msd tech

Bad wheel alignment gave me the worst wheel hop ive ever had in a turbo dodge, that and preloading the driver side sway bar if youve got a one legger diff helps a lot, I have an 11 second g body and...

Sorry to but in here, but is there a how to on getting the ostrich to work with mp tuner for dummies lol ?

you can add some electric fans to the rear of the i/c if you have room

Do you have the resister block for the msd coil ? other than that try gapping the plugs down as well as making sure there is no oil on the spark plug boots, the old ignition system is very weak,...

Id like a set of pads if you still have any ?
Thanks

Nice runs, Im not sure how your power is dropping off at 6k my 16 v with stock cams will bang off the rev limiter at will wich is 7k with a 2.5 ltr and im pretty sure the stock cams on a t3 are more...

Once you go 16 valve you will never go back, the potential is there to make...

MY m/t slicks are doing the same thing wierd..

Wow compression is quite a bit lower on the 2.4 over the hybrid ? Or is that from the camshafts mainly ? my hybrid is getting about 185 psi with 2.5 pistons and 2.4 stock cams.

Check out craigslist You would be surprised how many slicks and drag radials you can find if you type in the right keywords

There are a couple of fishy looking for sale threads over there on td im just waitin for the first people to start asking where there stuff is

You dont need a lot of boost to go fast if everything else has been optimized, 25 pds of boost will need race gas no matter what, my daytona shelby went 12.6 @112 with 18 psi and 94 octane, the main...

Don't they have an oil pump upgade kit for the 2.4 ?
