    ZEX filter?...

    "go post-MAF injection and get a full tune for it." Which is exactly what I had to do when the original by-the-book setup resulted in a temporarily frozen sensor. Once rerouted, and combined with a 2.5 hour dyno tune, it was fine.

    The Mechanic Screwed Me Now Hes Gonna Pay

    Small Claims court usually goes up to $5K, and you don't need a lawyer. Forget about the grass, it doesn't have anything to do with your case.

    2.5 Hour DYNO TUNE = 337.9 HP & 405.4 TORQUE

    "What impresses me the most is the "blue line" reading with the tune. 20hp and 40ft/lb's with an aftermarket tune is amazing. Can't wait to get an Xcal." Jayce 1971: The tune that came with it produced 232.45 HP and 257.64 TORQUE. That DYNO shop then told me I should go to FastLane for...

    2.5 Hour DYNO TUNE = 337.9 HP & 405.4 TORQUE

    "The place probably just shoved a tailpipe sniffer up his tailpipe and that was that. That is how most dyno shops do it." That is how the first shop I used did it, and FastLane is closed now. ILLS: what is the alternative?

    2.5 Hour DYNO TUNE = 337.9 HP & 405.4 TORQUE

    "Any chance you could post a pic of how you have it plumbed in?" Copied and pasted from my photo gallery below. COMPUCAR Nitrous In Bag EFI Dry Kit 100 HP NX NOS, KKM Tru-Rev Sport Induction Kit, SCT Xcal3, and Custom 2.5" Magnaflow exhaust system. Nitrous Setup Pictures...

    Custom Lincoln LS Turbo

    http://www.contour.org/ubbthreads/sh...=&fpart=1&vc=1 I went there, and to my surprise, the motor is done in Marshall, Virginia, a town of only 600 people where I grew up as a boy. A small, small, world.

    Floor Mat Color?

    I don't think black would look correct.

    v8 owners

    "The motor is too high a compression ratio to use anything below 91 octane." Exactly, 10 3/4 to one. ('04)

    LS heat and/or AC?!

    I believe you're going to have to take it to the dealer. I assume no idiot lights are on. My '04 A/C was blowing cold on one side and warm on the other. It was at 48K, so the dealer repaired it, whatever it was. I do know it took many hours, not something cheap, I imagine.

    Nitrous vs. Superchargers

    I thought this was a good explanation. Hopefully, it is 100% correct. http://www.racingjunk.com/s/NitrousVsSuperchargers

    Whistle from KKM intake

    "more of a deep howl." Good description.

    Whistle from KKM intake

    "just installed KKM intake on 2004 LS V6" I have it on the V8 and it is definitely louder which I understand is normal. I'm not sure about the "whistle" noise you are hearing.

    Land Speed LS

    "......it also gets methanol where it would ordinarily get gasoline." Now that you have posted this, your previous "tooting" of the NX system makes sense!

    Sold my truck.

    Mustang I would go with the Mustang. You can do so much with them, and so much is available. The below link is where they Dyno tuned my LS. They had never worked on anything, but Mustangs before. You can see what they have done with them. Some over 1,000HP...

    Land Speed LS

    ? One of my son-in-laws has a 4.0 turbo Jag and is worried about the plastic cam chain tensioners breaking. He states that the best price he has gotten is $2,500 because of the labor involved. He also mentioned that if it jumps more than one tooth, then the motor is gone. I was curious if...

    Where to find PCM Code??

    "Your SCT Tuner should know this." For sure, I can't believe he didn't get it himself.

    Jaguar XJR-6...LS Replacement?

    XJR V8 4.0, not 4.2 .

    Jaguar XJR-6...LS Replacement?

    He has a XJ6, not a XJR6, but I found the below which should help you, especially the first. By the way, if you have been offered $15K for your LS, I would sell it today. I only spent $15.6 plus $500 shipping for my 2004 Sport LS with 45K. Thinking of buying XJR6 - The Jaguar XJ6 Forum...

    Jaguar XJR-6...LS Replacement?

    One of my son-in-laws has a 2002 Jaguar, but I'm not sure what model. I do know it has the 4.2 motor with a turbo that supposedly puts out 380 flywheel HP. He is on a Jaguar forum, so I sent him an email to see what he knows and/or can find out.
