NotchJohnson - my mods are:

TFS heads with a stage II port from CHP
TFS Street Heat intake
Ed Curtis cam
Full exhaust - FMS equal length shorties, Bassani x w/o cats, Borla XR1 cat back
blah blah blah.

Currently working on a new bottom end which is going to be a fairly high compression, for a street car, 331 with a shot of nitrous and I also have an appointment for a chip to be burned with some dyno time to tune this thing. I'm thinking that once I get the bottom end finished up that a 65mm will be a bit too small for me, and actually I wonder if a 70mm is going to be big enough. I'm going to have to do a new MAF too while I'm at it and when I do the bottom end the entire fuel system is getting upgraded to support all of it.


mike72678 - thanks for the offer, but I have a question for you. How can you get me a TB from Accufab for my car when Accufab told me yesterday they aren't making them. They literally told me that they had made one for the SN95 that was out in real world testing and they haven't set anything up for a production run. If you have the hook up then I would definately be interested in getting one. $259 for an Accufab piece isn't bad, and you get what you pay for.

chris91LX - it's been a while since I have worked on a fox so I don't remember exactly the differences between them. Where does the EGR mount on yours, isn't it off of the TB itself? and I think the TPS is in a different location too.

bigred90gt - yes I have contacted BBK about this and they have pretty much told me they don't know why it's doing it and are being difficult to say the least to get an RMA for this much less a replacement from them. /shrug I guess I just won't do any more business with them... I have gone through a total of 3 different TPSs to see if I had perhaps just bought a faulty one but the two new ones have read about the same which is somewhere above 1.3x when I test them. I can "adjust" that down a little, but nothing close to being in an acceptable range. Funny thing is I have been told many times now that the 94/95 TPS can't be adjusted even though I have done it myself. I can adjust it from the 1.3x range down to the 1.1x range by playing with the screws like a fox. I've been told the computer controls the TPS voltage but every shop book I have read on my car says it has the same acceptable ranges as the foxs. The only one that reads in acceptable range is the stock TB with any of the TPSs.


I hope that answered everyones questions
