  • Sitting out in the parking lot at work, looks good

    Doesnt run real great, dies at every light, and its a "little" bit loud, lol. But it sure is good to be in the drivers seat again!

    Exhaust shop later.

            • Um its like 40+ in flint, no ice here, at all...... a little misty but thats it.

              Second, talked to the tuner, he said its fine to drive, no WOT runs obviously, got to take it to get all the bugs worked out, cant take it to my tuner with the exhaust half apart, the car not aligned and stuff not working, lol.

              Got the exhaust done, but now have a possible problem. I have a VERY strong vibration anytime im on the gas, even to maintain my speed, not sure what it is, but it litterally shakes the piss out of the car.

              Side note, what a difference in ride from 130k decarbons to new bilsteins! Quite a bit firmer, almost crappy on some of the roads around here.

                • Drive shaft out of balance? Did you knick it on anything during removal and install? They're VERY sensitive and easy to knock out of balance

                      I'm taking the one in my S10 to get balanced AGAIN this week, the place is in Troy though... Dynotech Driveshafts. I had it balanced there 4 years ago, but I think one of the weights rusted off - it vibrates like crazy under load.

                      For reference they said it would be $95

                          • Well, put some miles on it, seems to have loosened up considerably, vibration is basically gone except when the converter locks, and the engine is loaded down, then it shakes pretty badly.
