Domestic Truck in Champaign, Big Mouth, Small Truck Options

[TotalEclipse97]

This guy i see at work all the time rants and raves about being a "street racer". He's in his late 20's early 30's. I asked him what he ran. He proceeded to glorify his Z71 Chevy that was putting down 320hp to the wheels. I didn't want to make fun of him ( even though i should have ) so i asked him what/who he raced. "rice burners" he said...."little imports with big tips"... he went on (again) to tell me about smoking some guy in a ford v8 triton. I think this guy needs to race the right people...so if anyone's up for some fun here's the truck's description


Z71 Chevy XT
All-Wheel Drive
454 with Headers
Custom Y-Pipe
Stock Muffler System (no glass paks or anything fancy)
2.25-2.50 exhaust (dual tips)
Green on Silver
Tinted Windows (with little stickers)
Nothing flashy
K&N Filter
No lift kit,custom rims or anything just stock

and he said something about his throttle body but whatever. 320 to the wheels


have fun guys

Rewiring fuel pump on a 2G:

Fuel cut is more prevalent in cold weather. Nevertheless, its strange for your 2G MAS to be fuel cutting at 15 psi on a 14b. There are guys out there running 16g's on 2G MAS and stock injectors at higher boost pressures w/o fuel cut. If you have been seeing a lot of knock your ECU may have lowered your "octane" value low enough that it is allowing less air before fuel cut.

Otherwise, you might want to crack open that ECU and check for leaky caps. My old fwd used to fuel cut like a bitch and it turned out to be from leaky caps on the ECU.

That's a beautiful 2G, btw!
