I put shifter stops underneath the boot to reduce wiggle as well. The shifter bushing was the most notable upgrade

@Smeedia Год назад

Those definitely help on some cars 🔥

Can you fit the kartboy short shifter on its own and notice a difference? I only ask as they sell the short shifter separate or as a kit with bushings for under the car. I’m confident I can fit the short shifter but the bushings are out of my skill and tool set

Hey couple questions for you guys does anybody know what the manifold absolute pressure should be at idle and while driving. I believe my map sensor is bad I'm getting like four to two PSI at idle and then while driving under boost a maximum I'm getting is about 17 PSI. My car is jerking on heavy acceleration I'm getting poor gas mileage and I have a severe lack of power. I know my engine is good because I just replaced it 2000 miles ago with an IG stage 2 tuff motor. Also my car is pulling timing but I have zero knock and zero misfires

When I did the rear bushing I used Kartboy, and reinstalling the bolts couldnt have been more of s sketchy pain in the ass, i swear. It's like the bushing wasnt wide enough, so the bolts barely went into the threads on the chassis. I hope I never have to take it off again. And on top of that, after doing all of the shifter bushings I now have slop in the shifter, which is super annoying.
