C4in mesa Posted August 11, 2013 Author Share Posted August 11, 2013 Here is a recent pic. I've a problem with my speedo and tach. Yesterday I saw an opportunity to open it up for a mile or two. I punched it hard and the 2:73 gears were in full glory ! My tach went to the numbers 2, 3,4 and simply stopped functioning properly until I let up off the heavy gas pedal. My speedo read a sluggish 135mph and would not keep up with my increasing speed. I was over 145 for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cross Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Failed at pointing and providing exterior shots! Otherwise looks nice, besides that emission crap they force you to have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C4in mesa Posted August 12, 2013 Author Share Posted August 12, 2013 I kept emissions for resale value. I don't think those magnaflow cats are restricting my exhaust. This old car has balls man. It steadily gains speed over 100. I'm dying to take it somewhere safe to open it up. I can't keep doing 140 on the US60. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shifty Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I was mostly referring to teh diverter valve, A.I.R. pump and it's hoses, etc...without them on there, it opens up a lot of room. There is no doubt they can be fast, mine was... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C4in mesa Posted August 13, 2013 Author Share Posted August 13, 2013 I am going to put Hagerty insurance on the car shortly. Protect all the money I sunk into this car. If something does happen to it I will buy a 2003 Z06. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
