    Alloytec Exhaust Rasp Sovled! Its Goooone! :)

    The cat back I had installed also included a 3" resonator after the Y collector, rasp was still there. The cat back was never the problem even rasped with the standard item. By removing the Hi Flow cats the rasp is gone, I personally see this as the fix in my case.

    Alloytec Exhaust Rasp Sovled! Its Goooone! :)

    After many hours spent researching and talking to many different people, I thought I’d share my experience with my rasping VZ. Being there is no definitive answer to the rasp issue. Personally I can’t stand the rasp I know some people like it although this is for people who would like it gone...

    How big can u go with 20inch tires on a VZ Clubby

    Your 225s would be streched im guessing? no need to go too wide.Trying to get a wider tyre to clear the gaurds will make rear tyre wear even worse. I currently have 245 30 20 Front 245 35 20 Rear With lowered suspension and have no issues, rolled gaurds are a must. although have been...

    engine swap vz alloytech v6 for vy sv8 and 6 speed box

    id check with your states requirerments, pretty sure u cant put an older engine into a newer car due to emmissions regulations ;) New motor into old car is fine of course.

    VZ ssl front springs + 20inch wheels?

    Try the 20's with the SL's you have and see how u like it, wouldnt advise any lower due to ride quality. Full lock turning will rub, go up or over somthing and it will be worse. You could always change the front bar ;)

    vz idles rough and misses when aircon turned on

    Got a service today, ie plugs, oil, coolant flush. and yeah the problems gone(for now) which is wierd as the plugs wernt that bad and for a problem like that to come back you would suspect coils. Once the miss returns, coils are definatly next item to replace.

    K&N filter... worth it?

    Ive seen gains in fuel economy, mostly highway driving. Engine does seem to respond and react slightly faster. No HP gains as yet.
