No. All he has is an upgraded fuel pump. That and 2 injectors per cylinder are all that are needed to unlock the hidden 300HP.

the only thing that will save us is what that drivers side impact airbag is going to do to that universal fitment gauge pod...

1) There is no airbag since they are for pu55ies

2) If that car hits the streets at all then it doesn't go more than 5 mph so nothing will get dirty

3) The car can not go fast enough anyway since there is so much down force the wheels couldn't turn.

Was very slushy on the highway today About half way to work my window washer fluid started to act weird. Was coming out in small spurts and then nothing even though I could hear the pump working. Tried pulling the stalk harder and that seemed to work a couple of times but then noting at all came out.
Anybody know what could be wrong?

Do you REALLY need to change the oil filter EVERY oil change?

Don't think there is an oil filter on these. I have looked all under the car and not been able to find one if there is.

I think you're confusing the turn signal stalk. If you yank too hard on that piece, you will invert your signals. Try the other side.

I have been reading about our car. They say it has a low cog. I googled "cog" and it looks like a gear. I want to lower my car, but after reading about the low cog, I am worried about scraping it.

Question: How much can I lower before I scrape the cog gears?

Well that isn't very helpful. I am not an idiot I know which side to use. If you can't ell my why none is coming out then just do say anything at all. It is people like you that ruin the forum for us guys that just want help.

Given the location of the cog, the mounts are actually at the center of the car, that's what makes it 50:50 weight distribution. The cog itself is located at the back. You run the risk of scraping it when you pop a wheelie. The so-called torque dip is caused by the cog scraping the ground.

We should ask the admin to make this a sticky. I couldn't find this info anywhere! And I looked for like 30 whole seconds.

no joke, when i switched from driving a '94 suburban(twist the turn signal), and a '96 ranger(push the end of turn signal) to a '01 eclipse(pull the right-side stalk), i actually took the fluid bottle out and tested the pump because i was convinced it was defective.

and then while putting it back in, figured out there was an entire other stalk that does all that...
