Right now we got check engine light is on, we got ECU code P0300-Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire and P0421 Warmup Catalyst below threshold. These codes were present before the Catback was installed. P0421 is caused by the secondary 02 sensor since we are running "sans chat" 02 simulator will be installed to combat this. p0300 is a longer story, it is like OBD2 aids, most of the OBD2 turbo cars suffer from it at one point or another one of the solutions is ecu reflash. I'm gonna look at the coils, wires and spark plugs maybe the Denso iridiums aren't up to the task, should switch to NGK copper plugs.

We were bored and tired with the Silver Racinghart 17" Wheels. SO we got some Bronze, primer and clear. Here how it went, let me know what u tink.

The MSP is down for about 2 weeks now, transmission related isues. It is stuck in South Jerzy. Haven't been able to look at it yet but from owner said that it goes into gear but once he eases off the clutch it revs but won't go anywhere.

Could be
1. Broken Axle
2. Broken clutch (simply disintegrated) that boy runs every second of the day
3. chewed out gear inside the box
4. Broken LSD
5. Broken gear shift linkage

Can't wait to really see what's wrong with the damn ting.

Somewhere near princeton I guess. I aint going down there to check that out.

it did happen suddenly, since there were no signs of slippage before. I think it has a stage 2 clutch or something on there so the clutch is still number 2 guess. This guy pushes this car very very hard. It has solid motor mounts (vibrates like crazy) the power gets to the ground. So a broken axle would be my first guess. It could break at the splines or simply round out the splines, he also said he felt a dropping sensation when it happened it would be messed up if the trans unbolted haha.
