    Need some nitrous help

    Right now all I have is the standard ZEX nitrous kit with their "300hp" shot on a wide open throttle switch. I flip it on as soon as the truck shifts into 2nd gear. It's too much to kick it on any sooner. I'm not really sure how much is too much to run rigt off the launch. I am really just...

    Diesel Jeep CJ7

    Now that I'm for the most part done with the race truck, it's time to start on the wife's build. The Mazda B2600/4D55diesel was so much fun that she decided to do this. 1980 Jeep CJ7 And a Mercedes 5cyl OM617 turbo diesel. I'll just leave this here for now and go into detail later.

    Got Oil? Lol!

    Just thought I'd show y'all my new hpop setup. It's almost comical. Runs pretty awesome though! Adrenaline pumps, stealth dual kit, and the front pump was modified by joey. I call it the Adrenastealthinator. LOL

    Looking For E450 Trans Brake

    Like the title says, I'm looking for a GOOD E450 trans brake tail housing. Anybody have one? I'm going to use it mainly just to make my 4x4 trans work in the 2wd race truck, but I'm eventually going to go ahead and turn it into a trans brake for staging.

    No communication with pcm. (race truck)

    I'm not getting any communication and I've checked everything I can think of. I'm down to the fact that the instrument cluster is missing. I can't believe that is the problem. It's e99. Ive even swapped pcms. Any ideas?

    Air to Air, Water to Air, or No Intercooler at all?

    I'm trying to decide. Its for my dedicated race truck that I'm building. Thoughts? Opinions? It will only run on the drag strip. Also it will be sprayed so that will cool down the temps. Plus I may be using a compounded triple setup so I don't know what I want to do there. Looking for opinions...

    Can we do TDI builds on here?

    I'm gonna build mine. It's a 2004 VW Passat GLS with 160k miles. I tried selling it but couldn't get it sold for $6,000, so if I'm gonna keep it then I'm gonna build it. Should be fun. Here's what I'm thinking. Balance shaft delete and ALH oil pump Front mount intercooler with steel piping...

    600hp was fun but boring. Going bigger!

    I finally decided to buy a built engine. I bought the one rpm-inc had for sale over on PSN. Built by Carson Stauffer. It has all the cool stuff. I go to pick it up this weekend. It should be able to handle the 400/400's! Also ordered flexalite fans and a nitrous kit. Also gonna take my trans...

    Bare minimum wiring to run a 7.3??

    I'm trying to get the wiring done on the race truck and was wondering if someone could give me a cheat sheet. It would be awesome if someone had a wiring diagram with only the needed wires. I'm going to use switches for everything including the ignition. No key, turn signals, no heater/ac...

    Heres a tough one that I can't figure out.

    The E99 F-350 will be running down the road and just stumble instantly and then come back. Almost like you shut the key off and then back on. Fuel psi is good, new cps, new icp sensor, good hpop psi, and everything else looks good. The tach doesn't drop when it does it and it only does it...
