I really can't see that being the problem. The ECM should compensate for it. People put on opened up exhaust all the time without ANY problems... hence the huge aftermarket exhaust system sales. Perhaps you did something else, unwittingly, while back there hammering???? Fuel line? Check out...

Perhaps just technology has improved on the making of the fiberglass panels. But, I'd guess it was age more than anything else.

Off topic: Hey Orange84... you ought to change your name to Agent Orange. :D Don't know why, but after looking at your car, it just hit me that should be your name. You paint job looks awesome! :upthumbs

I was thinking about adding a valve to shut off the heated coolant to the TB. I haven't done it yet because I feared shutting off a supply of coolant to somewhere else. Is it SAFE to add a shut-off valve in this line? Which side of the TB is the right side to add it? TIA

Very sorry to hear that this idiot decided to make you his target. If it were my car and insurance is going to take care of it, make sure the facia(rear bumper) is replaced along with the styrofoam inner pieces. I had an '86 Camaro and some kid pulled out in front of me, front end damage. It...

Hey Selim, Thanks for the information. It really sounds like a pretty nice place to live with all kinds of climates within a few hours drive(if it gets too hot, drive to some snow). I had a few buddy's that were stationed in TR and never heard complaints about it. In one of your pics with...

DOH!! :W Thought I was in the New Members area! ;LOL ;LOL ;LOL Sorry, Selim!

Thank Randy, I will check it out.

Hi Selim, Maybe I missed it, my apologies if I did, you type/speak a lot like an American. Have you spent time here in the states? From what I can see in the background of your pics, it looks really nice where you are. I've never been to Turkey and most of us only know your country from...

I have to check the mouth of my C4 regularly. Got to swerve every time I'm driving down the road and see trash ahead. It's like a vacuum cleaner. I was taking a friend for a ride a few weeks ago and drove over a plastic bag on the road. When we got back to my friend's house, I got out and...

To get a true corrected you would need temp, humidity, altitude. I don't know the calculation though.

Hey Jim... thanks for the info. It's starting to look like I will have a good time. :D

Hey Randy, What do you do in the AF? I was AMMO for 5 years back in the early 80's. Stationed in the UK at RAF Upper Heyford, we had a few TDY's to Aviano, which I wasn't able to go... wife and kids. :( Tom

Thanks Doug. That cools my nerves a bit. :D I hate being the new guy. :(

Hey Paul, I've been searching the 'net and reading just about everything I find on SCCA and SOLO2. There is a SOLO2 race here in Indy the end of July and I plan to attend. How were the nerves on an auto-x newbie?? It seems that all the SCCA literature says how friendly everyone is to the...

Went up? Saying that the TB was also cooling the fluid??? I suppose that happens, wonder if the benefit/gains are offset by the losses??? Hmmm....

I think he was just ribbing you. Perhaps he forgot the smiley. Next time... tape off the intake runners on the heads. :D

Doesn't the heated throttle body allow for heat transfer to the intake manifold as well. Even if it is barely discernable, it seems that it would partially prevent the intake from self cooling ambiently. The pipe... why not use brass tubing?

;LOL ;LOL ;LOL

Thanks for the info/help, Skip! I'd have found it by now if my old broken body would allow me to bend enough to reach anything under the dash. ;LOL
