Well that's why im asking. So your saying nitrous can and is more dangerous for the engine?

Yeah sure I realize they can be safe or danerous depending on the setup. I worded my question wrong. Im looking for the safest, fastest, cheapest way to add HP without doing damage to the engine or the rest of the car and ive gotten in to a debate on weather or not nitrous will kill an...

Simple question....What size jets/shim do you use for a 150 shot on a Mustang with 19 pound injectors? In general which would be safer and why? Supercharger/turbo or running nitrous? IMO a sc or turbo would be safer, but Id like some opinions from someone who knows what there talking...

Yeah right now the 6 seems more logical for us right now for various reasons. Thing is, im considering trading in the Tundra for a 4door Tacoma now. I cant make up my mind. :(

Thanks guys I found alot of good info. So $500 below invoice is a general range in which the average car buyer pays? I just hate haggling with the sales person. :( Thanks again guys.

I never really understood this. Ive been pricing a few new vehicles on various websites, edmunds, MSauto, ect... What is the difference between invoice cost and MSRP? MSRP tends to be the higher price. So which is the one you end up paying. I priced a few cars with options and get two...

Wow, that thing is clean!

I test drove both cars again. Still having trouble deciding. :( Anyone know of a Mazda board or Mazda 3 or 6 specific message boards? Im basicly looking for a good place like the Exploreforum only for those cars. Thanks

Thanks for the advice guys. Later tonight im gonna test drive both cars again. Im swaying more toward the Mazda6 and the v6. :D But who knows. The Mazda3 looks like it has more cargo space with the folding rear seats though?

Hey thanks. Ive test drove both cars and loved both. The v6 is mighty tempting, however there is a price difference. I like the Mazda6 more of course, but... which has the better motor? Not speaking in terms of HP.

No, I dont own an Explorer any more. I own a Tundra.

Im looking for a new car. Soon to marry and have kids. I really like these cars but I cant choose. Advice or opinions would be much help. The truck just aint big enough to be a family car and holding a baby sit, blah blah blah. Thanks

Yup the 95 is OBD1. I'll look into the timing thing and the MAF, although the MAF is fairly new.

I have access to a OBD-1, but Im no good with it. Scanning for codes has been done numerous times, and none were found. This is one of the reasons it's so difficult to find the problem of course.

Yes im talking about the plug that connects to the computer. My logic is, if the harness is dirty or whatever and is causing hard starts then the Apten chip wouldnt work properly. Btw, cleaning the harness didnt work. We got a hard start last night. And the fuel pump continues to run...

No, im saying if the computer harness was dirty and causing hard starts wouldnt the Apten Chip not work? Or there would be other symptoms.

My Explorer has a slight miss, it allways has. I can hear it from the tail pipe. Never anycodes and the only other problem at this time has been hard starts every once in a while. So I assumed it was normal.

I removed the harness from the computer today. I then sprayed the connectors on the computer and also sprayed the wholes on the harness. I remembered back last year when I installed the Apten Chip the computer had some gue on the connectors where the harness plugs in. So I cleaned that crap...

Well that is one possible cause. However my brother or I dont want to mess around with that stuff. Ive checked the fuses and all look good. There is a chance that one of the wires could be loose, but I doubt it. It's looking like we will never find the cause and could be very costly to...

According to my 76 year old aunt, so does are Explorers.

I would consider buying a set but the price is extremly high. Even if the set gave you a 4% increase in HP, I dont think it would be worth it?

Just download here http://www.magiccitymustangs.com/images/tms/2005/pics/Trilogy.mpg Nice to see them do something different for a change.

BTW, the CPS didnt do the trick either.

Just got my new Performance Products catalog for Ford/Toyota trucks. I see they have a new product called Hotwires. Anyone else see this? What are your thoughts? Says it adds 2%-4% more HP.

A little update. My brother called me the other night and noticed something. Well we noticed it before but it has gotten worse. Before my brother goes to work, he warms the engine for about 10 min before leaving. He noticed that when pulling out of the driveway the engine idles down real...
