Hey, I missed the part on you needing fasteners. Which one are you needing?

Anyone interested in a P2R throttle body spacer, P2R thermal gasket spacer, a used 04 intake manifold, or a V2 RV6 precat deletes?

I have the V2 precat deletes sitting around in garage. When RV6 came out w/ the V3 I purchased those and installed them. So now I have the V2 collecting dust.

I might be interested in the intake manifold and spacer and thermal gasket. How much were you planning to get rid of those for?

The intake manifold is used of course, as well as the thermal gasket spacer. But the throttle body spacer is new, its black who. But the intake manifold is missing its double sided thread bolts for the EGR valve and the bolts for the top plate b/c I switched it onto my new intake manifold. HHhmmm, everything, like $200

OH its a spacer I thought you had a gasket for the throttle body. IN that case take that off and how much you want for the intake manifold and thermal gasket spacer for the Intake manifold? That is a p2r unit as well right?

I might take those precats off your hands if you're selling them for a good price. Been considering some for a while now.

Is a 14.00 in the 1/4 mile possible for a N/A automatic TLS? The last time out I did 14.20 and mentioned it wasn't running right. Well beside the Ram-Air not fully enabled, I finally found some of the other problems that were bugging me.

1) P0122 : Throttle / Pedal Position Sensor is malfunctioning. Not sure how much this hurt my times, but I'd guess at least the off the line acceleration might have been.

2) P1519 : IACV Circuit malfunction. Not sure how much this hurt, but likely had some effect.

3) P0420 : #1 O2 sensor efficiency below threshold. Again, likely some loss of performance.

4) Slight vacuum leak at the throttle body & intake.

Since I knew the car was bogging slightly on launch, a better time should be possible . . . now whether there's 2/10 or so . . . don't know. We'll see come fall when I hope to have everything fixed and tuned.

lol i have that same throttle code =D.

iacv should only mess with your idle.

o2 sensor that would be the big kicker.

and yes a 14 is possible with the right temperature and track conditions

I'll give it some thought then. A crack, even rewelded, kind of worries me.

Anyway, it looks like it'll be a week or so before I get to work on it.
