On another note, if anyone has an idea why my car will not boost when it warms up please let me know. It seems like it is hitting fuel cut, and when i press on the gas it backfires and studders. any thoughts??

If you just went non seq Check all the wiring that you touched. Also make absolutely sure that the map has all 3 wires conn properly. It's got to be something simple or it would'nt run at all.

hey everyone, just figured id post about the meet, Ghetto 7 hit 200K miles last week, so i took it to the strip with landen and kyle, first run 12.4, second run 10.8, those are 1/8 mile times, but since it was the first time racing legally im pretty happy with the second one.

Hey if anyone wants to go to the drag strip on may 6th i will be going. It will just be a test and tune night, no gambler race. So if anyone wants to come down early for the meet or anyone from chucktown wants to go let me know. 15 bucks per person. Track opens at 6:30.

Hmph. I don't think you'll get me back to that bullshit track. It's bad enough that it was 1/8th mile, but the other night was complete BS...

That's cool. It wasn't your fault in any way! Actually, I'm planning to go to Darlington next time if they're open.

My car is currently off the road until I replace my LIM gasket. It blew out on the way home the other night. I'm also getting my LIM, UIM and hard turbo pipes powdercoated while everything is apart.

Nope. I changed my mind. I'll be going with Mirror Black for the UIM, LIM and turbo pipes. Later I'll do the IC pipes and all brackets. The blue might disappear.

Well great news everybody.... I got the 7 running great today. I am not going to say what was wrong with it, because that is what i thought the problem was in the first place, and some people said that it was more complicated than that. Oh well, it ran great today, took it out on the freeway and tore up some ricer. Feels great. To bad i cant make it to the meet.

I just had a quick questing about the A/C compressor clutch. I just wanted to know if it was easy to replace and were to get one. Or do i need to just get a whole new compressor. Because when i got hit about 3 weeks ago i guess the compressor clutch went too. and the guy at the insurance place said that it could not of happend cause of the accident. but anyways he said that the clutch of the compressor was gone and you can hear the ***** rolling arond when i drive. He said that eventualy it will just come apart so i just wanted to know again how hard to replace and were to even get one
thanks guys
