Re: My 1st Kill With The Ty... Sort Of Thanks a lot guys. Like I said it may not seem like much... but when you're used to "racing" mid to late 90's Stratus's and Malibus with a sohc Neon, beating a Subaru is pretty damn cool

It's nothing too impressive, but as you can see from my mods the only real performance things done to the Ty is an intake and exhaust. A couple Fridays ago while heading home from work, I turned onto a road and happened to notice the car in front of me was an 06-07 WRX (Not an Sti). I made sure...

Re: Need OEM Intake or Kenne Bell Box Thanks for the link. I just sent out payment for a KB box so I SHOULD be ok now. Thanks to everyone that gave me a link or offered up their parts. Hopefully by the time I get everything up to par and acceptable for the folks at emmisions I will only have...

Re: Need OEM Intake or Kenne Bell Box lol thanks. yeah i saw that about a half hour after i posted this. Don't think I want to go with the whole new KB set up because all i'm missing right now is the box. Need it cause the pricks at emissions aren't big fans of open intakes. Although the...

I'm looking for either the fiberglass box that comes with the kenne bell intake (preferred) or maybe the whole oem stock intake assembly... box, crossover, etc. I am currently searching the internet and checking with the previous owner of my Ty for said parts, but it's not looking too good. If...

Re: Stock or Emission-Friendly Air Intake? Thanks, man. I'll do that. I don't think he will have it, but it is definitely worth a try. Plus, you just gave me another part I can scavenge for on the good old interweb :tup:

Re: what kind of mileage ya'll getting I put in about 6 gallons a lil bit ago to top it off and when looking at the trip odometer I figure I was getting about 14mpg, but that's with more city than non-stop driving and it smells like the Ty is running rich anyway. I would also concur that your...

Re: Stock or Emission-Friendly Air Intake? Wow, I didn't even realize I had a Kenne Bell related item under my hood. That's kind of cool :D Unfortunately since I do not have the resources to pursue such a venture on my own, I'm gonna have to call some garages/shops to see if I can get them to...

Re: Stock or Emission-Friendly Air Intake? Yeah, everybody tells me I should've registered it in a non-emissions county, but I'm stupid like that and tend to do things more by the book. It's funny that your truck is registered in Dodge Co, because that's where I bought mine. Yeah, I don't...

I recently took my newly aquired Ty for it's 1st required emission test and they told me I was not allowed to have an open air intake (cone) on the vehicle. So now I must replace it with something else or I won't be able to pass. I'd put the whole stock assembly (air box to turbo) back on, but...

Re: My Typhoon's 1st Emissions Test Those are the only mods I know of. All the mods on the truck were done by the previous owners. The only things I've put into the truck have been a new batt, serpentine, and alternator. I honestly don't know how old the cat is... for all I know it could still...

Ever since I bought my Ty I thought the exhaust smelled like it was running rich and I feared it would not pass emissions. So I waited until the last possible day they gave me to get it tested (today) and it only confirmed my suspicions... FAILED :tdown: It failed on the damn HC idle: 319.2...

Re: Floods and Tornadoes Tornadoes, flooding, and dam braking, oh my! There's been flooding by me, but it never reached my house. Earlier in the week there was about a foot plus of water at one end of my street from the very nearby flooding river. The water level has gone down a bit, but it's...

Re: Couple Raw Ghettosled Clips - Older Stuff That other video is hilarious :rotf: 100 Zebras agree: Miller Lite is the preferred light beer on the African Serengeti.

Re: Why do we need alky? ^^^That actually makes sense... whether it's true or not. Oh, BTW Tytilidie... did you lay the smack down on that SRT4 who thought he could dust you?

Re: Why do we need alky? That's exactly what I want to know. I want to make my Ty faster (a conservative low 12s to 12 flat), but I don't really want to do the whole alcohol injection thing. Why does it seem like we require it and is there anything we can do to get around it?

Re: SE WI Meet-Ups? Hey, Sy892 (sorry. don't know how else to address you lol) I live near downtown in Waukesha. Yeah, I know where Cleveland is. Had to take Cleveland for a while when my preferred route to work was obstructed due to construction. My daily coal mine in New Berlin is on...

Re: SE WI Meet-Ups? Thanks, Rookie. I don't really go to that side of the state, but if I do, I'll drop you a line. It'll give me an excuse to visit a buddy I used to work with that had to move to Lacrosse. If you wanna race I will say this: my Ty is runnin pretty much stock, but I think it...

Re: New here and have question That's why I buzz my hair without an attachment... Makes it virtually impossible to rip it out when the Ty and I are not "getting along" :bad-word:

Re: A Display of Glee From A New-ish SyTy Owner LOL @ Rookie. I think we'd all appreciate experiences like that if we could get them. Hey, ladies... the back seats in the Ty DO fold down :boink: Hahaha! Who am I kidding? No ladies are gonna read this :rotf:
