I run SC2s, and my turbo comes in a little late so it is easier to control on the street, but it will still blow the tires off around 5k in 1st and 2nd at WOT.

There is just a little roll pin that holds the key on. You don't even have to get them cut. Just swap your existing key into the new fob.

FYI, in my experience the aftermarket fobs don't last as...

If you go with the factory AAM 3.91, there is a good chance you won't need to change any shims. I'm not sure about when you go with aftermarket gears.

It was approximately a $10 part. You could ask him to proactively replace them once he determines what the leak is.

I have the G8 reservoir on one and a Wilwood on the other. Rubber cap on both with no leaks. I think the G8 kit came with the rubber cap and I just pulled one out of parts drawer on the Wilwood.

I don't see any reason that would not fit with the right offset, worst case a small spacer with longer studs, but you should not need spacers. I know a lot of people get squeamish about spacers, but...

You have the right idea. Running fuel from the bottom of the tank increases the likelihood of picking up trash or even some water if it got in there. It would also cover less of the fuel pump...

The cooler is inside the diff and sealed off from the diff fluid. It takes "overcooled" (GMs words not mine) fluid from the radiator trans cooler and runs it through the diff cooler to drop the 300+...

Thanks



I ran a 335 on an 18 with 56 offset using a 5mm spacer and it barely rubbed the liner, assuming you gain half an inch without the liner, that still only puts you at 355-360. I suppose...

I saw that, but I don't see how that works. Even removing the wheel liner would not get you past the frame rail unless you back halved the car.

It would take a lot of trans fluid leaking into the diff to make the gear oil redish. Your diff would have to be overfull. Pull the fill plug to see if it's overfull and compare the color of the diff...

That sort of scoop is better for trying to force air into the intake, but you have to figure out how to seal it up as there is already under hood pressure at speed so it would not likely do much.
