    Stand Alone

    From what I've read, it seems the only stand alone systems syty owners are using on their trucks is the big stuff 3. Has anyone used an adapted AEM stand alone? I have a friend who is a genius at tuning imports and helped develop STS turbo systems. He says he can do my truck with the AEM stand...

    Wheel Bearing?

    My truck started making a whistling noise while driving, I thought it was possibly the wheel spacers I added to make my new rims fit, but it got louder. Decided to put on the lift and left the truck in drive, low and behold all tires except one was spinning, tried to help spin it, and it moved...

    Boost Control/Waste gate

    I am sure this has been addressed before, but I am having a hard time finding the thread/articles. After getting my sy back from an L35 conversion, I have started to do some data logging.

    water to air intercooler tank

    A while back I remember reading about someone who added an external tank in the bed of their sy for the intercooler. From what I understood, it allowed more fluid to be stored outside of the engine bay. Seems like a great idea to me, but I am curious what kind of tank he used? A fuel cell of...

    Vortec conversion

    The never ending exhaust leak has finally been found. It appears that someone had been trying to port/bore out one of the exhaust ports and made it waaay too big, so they attempted to weld in the mistake but failed miserablly. So I need a new head, or new heads. I think this would be a prime...

I just recently bought a new one but have been curious if some of the mods that the prevoius owner made is the cause. The air intake has been re-routed and is now located on the passenger side. With this...
