Re: What did you do to your car today?

Still in tear down mode for my 20v swap. Worked on pulling the rest of the heater box and everything under the dash (I'm going to be running just a half dash with no heat/ac).

Re: Is CXRacing 20v Exhaust any good?

I bought just the header, wish I would have bought it with the downpipe. It's alright, not very good flow off of the flange, welds look okay, but can't expect much from a cheap header. It'll do the job for now, that's about all I can say about it. It'll work as a starter

Re: UPDATE: 5.5agze 20v coming Spring 2015

Can you explain how you changed the pcv valve location to work with a an-fitting? I'm looking to do the same for an oil catch can, just didn't know if it takes a lot of modification or not.

Stripped oil pump bolt help!!

Alright guys, so I have been freshening up my blacktop 20v to drop into my hatch. I did the 16v oil pump/timing tensioner conversion and as I was finishing up bolting/torquing everything back together, one of the bolts on the oil pump pickup tube stripped out. It wasn't overtightend or torqued and j...

20v swap guys I need your input!!

Ok for all you guys running 20v swaps, what clutch/flywheel setups are you running and how do you like them? I'm going to be doing some drifting/spirited driving with mine and am trying to figure out the best setup for me.

Thanks,
Alec
