    Bov bs

    Re: Bov bs I had the exact same set up you're talking about on my syclone years ago and had the exact same problem. Took the BOV off and threw it in the garage. 8 years later I'm trying it again with the exact same problem.

    Bov bs

    so i searched through the BOV threads and didn't find anything covering the issue I'm having. In a nutshell the BOV is acting like a wastegate and not a BOV. I have a Blitz Super Sound Blow Off Valve, with the vacuum line tee'd into the line going to the vacuum ball under the battery. As soon...

    tough guy in Jeep Overland

    Re: tough guy in Jeep Overland I didn't block him from changing lanes, I blocked him from getting on the freeway. The first case he was in no danger, he was just pissed that 22 year old blazer passed him when he floored it to try to get out in front of me before the lane merged The freeway...

    tough guy in Jeep Overland

    not really a "kill" but pretty funny. decided to drive the Ty to work today. On the way to the freeway the road is 2 lanes in each direction. I'm coming up to a stop sign when i notice this Jeep behind me right on my ass. The guy swings out to the right lane and pulls up next to me at...

    How low can you drop a syclone??

    Re: How low can you drop a syclone?? well that depends... do you actually want to DRIVE the truck? the lower you go in the front the shittier your handling is going to be... unless you drop the $$$ on coil overs. Loosening the torsion bars works, but do some homework on shocks first. If...

    Re: Comment on my You tube about Typhoon don't sweat it man... delete the comment and block the user. i had to disable comments on my sy vs lightning video altogether because I couldn't take the stupidity anymore. NO ONE reads the video description before they post, and no one thinks to...

    Your last drive?

    Re: Your last drive? this morning was the first time I've driven the truck on all 6 cylinders legally for more than 20 miles since I bought this POS in 2006. Tomorrow morning I'm gonna go get the alignment done, and then hit the twisty canyon roads in Malibu just for Jimmy :tup:

    upper IC overflow nozzle broke off

    Re: upper IC overflow nozzle broke off nah i tried that reflective heat wrap shit years ago... total waste of time. I wouldn't bother with ceramic coating either... might look cool, but wasted money for minimal results. ...and yeah i'm just gonna JB weld that bitch shut. Thanks guys!

    widest tire on stock rim

    Re: widest tire on stock rim that's fine on the track when you're going in a straight line... autocross, windy roads, or even a sharp freeway on ramp and it's gonna handle like shit. If you want wide tires, get wide rims.

    Fitment of LED for check engine lights

    Re: Fitment of LED for check engine lights nope! just the 2 screws in the cup holder... lift up the panel and you can get to the 2 bulbs on the bottom... The bulb holder twists out just like all the others. i did those red too to match my gauges.

    widest tire on stock rim

    Re: widest tire on stock rim i wouldn't really go past 255... any more than that and you're gonna get some lateral slop in your handling.

    Fitment of LED for check engine lights

    Re: Fitment of LED for check engine lights I had the same issue with mine... they were a lil bit of a bitch to get in there. I used some pliers on the base, pushed down and twisted, and it was good to go. I also had the same problem as Sean with the eff'n CEL being barely lit up. Kind of...

    socal syty stickers!

    Re: socal syty stickers! I remember that HUGE red one that Andrew had on his Ty. I still have a 24" black outline sticker, but I'm on the fence if I want to put it on my Ty or not... Kinda like not having any stickers on the truck. The "bros" in this area have plagued every truck here with...

    upper IC overflow nozzle broke off

    Re: upper IC overflow nozzle broke off makes total sense! hmmm so maybe just ceramic coat the bottom and the left side to protect from the turbo, and leave the rest uncoated... it'll look dumb but you might get the best of both there hahaha.

    socal syty stickers!

    I found 3 of these in my tool box... they're 8", white with red outline. These are the kind where you peel the back off, stick it on, go over it with a credit card, and then peel the top part off. $5ea, first person to call dibs gets em! putting this in the western forum since it's a regional...

    upper IC overflow nozzle broke off

    Re: upper IC overflow nozzle broke off hmmm... not too sure on that one... I would think that if you ceramic coated the IC, once you did a run down the track and the IC got heat soaked to hell that the ceramic would retain the heat and make it take longer to cool down... internally I mean...
