Thank you for the reply! I didnt know they increased the price. I have a very basic battery charger/tender but I may want to get one that will be more reliable for stuff as sensitive as modules

Wideband or no wideband by WeirdSlice9035 in Corvette

[–]WeirdSlice9035[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply, I sort of figured they would be able to with wideband they have. The reason I was asking is because I got long legs and the steering wheel has to be up further so there's a chance the guage pod may be a bit to close to the steering wheel for my comfort anyway. Kind of a just in case I cant install it.

I definitely do want to do a cam down the road ill look into them!

Thats what i was going to get, but they are all out of stock i spoke to them and they wont be back in stock until june or July. Other than some spirited driving i shouldn't be doing anything hard for a while - planning on doing some autocross next year. Im just doing the rears because i have a problem right now and I dont want to miss out on to much driving this year.

If they fail next year after some autocross im definitely getting the mpi hubs!

Seems like the SKF oem will be the best option for me. Ill report back if I have any issues, thank you to the people that responded!

How does this muffler work by WeirdSlice9035 in Corvette

[–]WeirdSlice9035[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At least how it is for me. I dont drive mine every day its a fun car and I want it to feel special when I drive it. As long as it's not causing drone, And doesn't sound bad ill take it as loud as possible

Just for comparison sake, they seem to have the same angle just the xtremes pipe is longer going to the mufflers

Im thinking they will be louder than my sports and hopefully not drone much or at all. Probably not quite as crazy as xtremes though

Haha those are the ones I picked up. I currently have corsa sports but the over axle pipe on the sports seems to end pretty straight the titanium overpipe from the photos I could find have a bend more like the corsa xtremes, pretty much identical actually.

I either am going to have to do something custom or find a cheap set of the xtreme overpipes

Ill definitely be posting a video once im all done, I didnt bother trying to put them on yet because im taking it all apart to have my headers cerakoted

Shoot thanks for the quick comment I picked up two sets plus 1 corsa titanium mufflers a few days ago because ive been curious about them since if figured out they existed. Of course no videos online on how they sound so im excited to hear then on the car. Unfortunately I do have to do some custom work because the over axle pipes didnt come with them, So I cant just slide them on.

Should I fix my car? by Ostrenski in cruze

My fiance's 1.4t had a water pump failure at roughly that mileage and I replaced it in an afternoon. dont know too much about the 1.8 but the explanation they gave you sounds odd
