  1. What exotic cars should I be able to take down?

    Yea for sure and I did see he said roll. I was just saying that there are many different races that can be had. Even at a roll it depends on the race. A lot of people here tend to add 100mph to starting speed as the target to hit before the race is over. Especially around TX2K street racing...
  2. Startlite hose super smelly?

    http://www.foreinnovations.com/product_p/flexlp-08.htm So that stuff uses the same re-usable fittings looks like. Cool, I may as well swap it out now. How flexible is it, am I gonna be able to shove it up into the cabin by the side of the tank? Really don't feel like dropping the tank right now.
  3. Startlite hose super smelly?

    Cool thanks guys!
  4. What exotic cars should I be able to take down?

    Don't discount some of the exotics. It depends on the race parameters, starting speed for a roll race, a dig, circuit, etc... They'll surprise you due to weight, grip, computer assists, and aerodynamics. Especially from a dig the awd monsters out there are unstoppable when they're sub 3s for a...
  5. Vacuum for fuel pressure regulator

    I went with the vacuum line coming from behind the throttle body plate. In this setup your FPR would see vacuum and boost.
  6. Startlite hose super smelly?

    This was a big part of why I followed the sellers suggestion of using Startlite hose. I was looking at that braided stuff and thinking screw that noise. I'd rather replace it every 3 years in 45 min on a lift. Until the smellz... This Earls nylon stuff is similarly flexible? Is it normally...
  7. Tune voids warranty?

    Definitely believe it. To me it always seems to vary by manufacturer, might be dependent on the dealer too, maybe some have their ways of getting around things. I think if it's not obvious your mods caused it you have a better chance vs. showing up with a supercharger and melted pistons. Bad...
  8. Tune voids warranty?

    Makes sense, not as fancy as Audi's solution, but I'm sure it works just fine.
  9. Tune voids warranty?

    It's not the dealers that refuse to honor your warranty. It's the manufacturer who reimburses the dealers. Dealers get paid to do warranty work. It's not lucrative like non-warranty service work, because it's typically at a fixed rate for the job. i.e. Transmission swap should take 6.5 hours...
  10. Video: Installing Fore Innovations L2 Fuel System

    Hey guys, just finished another video I thought would be good for DIY here. I realize there are other threads on the Fore Innovations installation, but I thought a video would be helpful. [ame] I got my kit from Hypermotive and it contained the following parts: Fore Innovations 42-800...
  11. E85 gas mileage?

    Mileage will be directly proportional to the change in stoichiometric mixture, which is a better way to figure out how your current mileage will change. By definition gasoline is said to have a 14.64:1 air to fuel ratio. Ethanol on the other hand is said to have a 9:1 air to fuel ratio. To give...
  12. PDR - has anyone attempted such a repair on their own?

    It's one of those things that looks easy, but takes some practice to do. It's like tinting, vinyl, etc... not really expensive to start out in, looks easy, but takes practice, attention to detail, patience and a steady hand to do a truly good job. So in tinting you might start with flat windows...
  13. Startlite hose super smelly?

    I imagine it's fine for regular unleaded race gas too right?
  14. Startlite hose super smelly?

    Will check it out, thanks man! I'm gonna wind up re-doing the hose when I do a bunch of rear end work, the question is when. Lots of different parts of the build going on at the same time. So I need to figure out how bad this smell is gonna be and if I need to reprioritize. So it was pitched...
  15. Startlite hose super smelly?

    So I'm kinda regretting going with the Startlite hose now for my Fore fuel system build. It was super easy to install and I get why people like it for that reason. It's very flexible and the fittings are awesome. However, I didn't think it was going to smell this bad right away. I though I...
  16. Fore return fuel system install

    Yea you don't have to necessarily crimp the ferule. The point is for the set screw to dig in so it should work fine. I did end up using a larger crimper with to make a nice square crimped surface. It wasn't very expensive, around $25 on amazon.
  17. Fore Fuel Rail Hardware

    Hah, yea it felt right and everyone probably does it the same way we did it. I'm probably the weird paranoid guy that actually called them to ask. I get fixated on stuff a little.
  18. Pizza Delivery driver hit my car, what are my options?

    I'm sorry, I thought you would be able to connect related concepts. Let me explain it in more detail. If your logic is that you can't open a claim with someone else's insurer, how would a pedestrian who may have no insurance file a claim if hit by a car? This is what I've done every single...
  19. Pizza Delivery driver hit my car, what are my options?

    Yea that's sort of what I'm assuming, must have been mom's fault hence they don't want to involve insurance.
