Although it's hard to tell the peak HP numbers, they look weak for your mods. The first two runs look like weak stock numbers. Who ported the heads/intake?
WELL WELL. I received my car back. AC makes weird noise, radio no longer works, paid for long tube headers received pacesetter shorties, paid for 1.7 rr, received 1.6 and underdrive pulleys not on as well. And to top it off the throttle sticks with the performance product 58mm thorttle body they put on. Car makes 313rwhp after the mods ughhh....
That shop still has some work to finish. Did they get your permission to change out to different parts?
Screw that, I'd charge the whole thing back. No excuse for them installing other components from what you agreed upon. BTW...list the name of the shop so others can avoid a ripoff.
agreed-charge the whole thing back UNTIL you can verify what it is going to take fix his fups.--might be more than you spent, in which case. he may owe you money
This is the main reason why I did my own cam swap. I just read another similar horror story over on LS1LT1.com. The guy found a ****ing rag left in his intake after the install. Wish I still had the pic but I think he removed it.
... Anyone have any ideas with the sticking throttle. It only sticks when it gets warm and brings the rpms to about 2k and i have to blip the gas to get it back down?
What brand and size TB? Some of the early Accel units were recalled due to a liability issue around sticking throttle issues. I have had issues with the AS&M units, but once the throttle blades are properly aligned (performed by AS&M at no cost ), it was no longer an issue.
No real excuse. Im tired if there bs i was supposed to get a refund today and nothing. The fully amount is going to be charged back
Performance products thorttle body
What is the part number Professional Products TB did he use.
I've used a couple of those PP TB's and the throttle cable cam is the nicest/simplest to set up and make work correctly of any of them (except stock) IMO.
Maybe he put the wrong cable cam on it or flat used the wrong TB.
