Does anyone have a picture of the belly pan on the new 08's?
Or a picture underneath the car.
I would like to see if the cut out for the crossover piping has been eliminated and the only the scoop cut out for the differential remains.
Thanks
Patrick
Actually no.............the shield that goes from the front of the car to the back. Its made of aluminum. It has probably 20 screws that hold it in place and it has a scoop in the centre ( probably to cool the diff ) and another towards the back for the cross over pipes. I could really use a...
Need one........new one.
Anyone know where I can get one.
This is the shield that protects the tranny made of aluminum. Not the belly pan shield.
Thanks

Hello;
I am in the process of cutting out ( from stainless steel ) new skid plate. Friend of mine is doing it for me. There are two cut outs on the plate. One has a scoop on it , which I think is used for cooling the diff., while the other is for the exhaust cross over.
My question is are...
Fact/ or Fiction;
Is tuning the 08 models and the ACR an issue if mods are installed. Simple mods like headers etc.
From what I understand its a difficult engine to tune.

I have never used Mike but from what I understand he has serviced many cars. Don't know of the others. Other considerations might include Wellington Motors. WELLINGTON MOTORS LIMITED
Sav Maritas is also a member of VCO as is Darren .
If you want these numbers send me a private PM and I will...
Obviously this isn;t an isolated problem. Thanks Bravo, I checked the tires and all ok......
I also thought of using a puddy which is used for keeping bolts and screws from coming loose. Can't remember what its called. Friend of mine is a plumber and told me to get that. Don't know if it locks...
Looked under the car before I stored it and I can't believe I lost 4 screws that hold the sills in place. This isn't the first time this has happened. I can replace them easily but any suggestions on how to keep them from falling off. Probably happens gradually with vibrations.
Thanks

Just heard the clip and I gotta tell you that it sounds pretty close the the real thing. I have the full belanger system as well. Great sounds very happy with it other then the issues with the 02 sensors.

Just be aware the warranty on the vehicle does not apply if the car is purchased in the US and you'll need to add 6% GST on the car coming across the border.
Still agree its worth shopping in the US. The only car manufacturer that has recognized the green back and dollar at par is Porsche...
Changed my wires and plugs. First of all the gaps were all wrong on the plugs. The car prior to the change was sluggish and hesitating on acceleration. Once changed night and day difference. The car is crisp and MUCH more responsive on acceleration. MSD wires and stock plugs were intalled.

Lots of information on this subject. Just do a search and you'll get some great discussion points.
Here's one topic.

For me it simply gets rid of the check engine light and stops my wiring from melting constantly. It...
No disrespect to Lou and the Belanger guys but the position of the secondary 02 sensor is a bad design. Placed right under the heat shield there is nothing you can do from melting the 02 wiring. I love the belanger sound and peformace improvement, although modest, but they really need to...
There was an article about this in the last VCA magazine. Not on how to eliminate the nooise but how to reduce it. Noise is normal but excessive noise, could and I stress could, mean something more.

Does anyone know where I can buy a mounting bracket for the Sirius radio. Seems like NO ONE sells it in Canada!! Go figure
Also where does it get mounted. Pics would be great!!
Thanks in advance

Just wanted to add that I did some work on the car this weekend. Spent about 4 hours installing 8.5 mm MSD wiring / boots and new plugs. I just added the plugs since I figured what the hell since I had the intake manifold off. The plugs were champion new stock plugs.
Well the hesitation /...
Love the idea but I just don;t like the idea of drilling any holes into the body work. I would hope there would be a better way to put them in place.
Nice look though!!

Ditto same here.
I have the belanger headers, high flow cats and delete cross over. I'm getting mine tuned next week.
I did, however, change secondary 02 sensors and put o2 simms on. The wiring kept getting burnt due to the position under the shield.
I notice the hesitation when the car is...
