    Export car? Down on power? PCM Services for BUX Export Modules...!

    You have to remember, just because your module is tagged as a 705AB, does not mean thats actually what it is. If someone else reflashed it in the past, its likely no longer a BUX controller. For G1 cars, the module needs to be modified, and its number inside/outside would be changed in the...

    Glass Bumper (fascia) PITA

    There are many sources for take-off OEM parts. I would never install that fiberglass junk. Wait for an OEM. Reminds me of when I dealt with a fiberglass Hennessy fascia decades ago. First and last. Never again.

    So... you have a modified and recalibrated OE PCM, eh? Running good? READ ME.

    Correct. Any of those off the shelf controllers and files I can duplicate in minutes, nothing that is worthy of spending extra money for a backup copy. This is mainly for aftermarket head/cam and power adder cars that no longer have easy access to calibration files. Pretty much anything built...

    Export car? Down on power? PCM Services for BUX Export Modules...!

    For a *Gen2*, nothing, provided the code was changed over to a USA based variant in the process (which not everone will allow)... and in fact we can do this with SCT for those that dont just want a direct flash and be done with it. For Gen1, its a completely different set of circumstances, as...

    2005 viper with Paxton supercharger

    Holy Misinformation Batman! This is becoming an often repeated, blown out of proportion fear tactic perpetuated by people who dont have the knowledge base or skills to avoid the problem, but would LOVE to sell you a Motec that you dont really need. Fact: The JTEC controller is the most...

    Export car? Down on power? PCM Services for BUX Export Modules...!

    It is a well known and well documented fact that BUX cars are significantly down on power. Their own HP sales figures confirm the same. That said, BUX did not exist all years. First year versions with major changes did escape many of the BUX configurations. I have seen no 1992 BUX equipment...

    2005 viper with Paxton supercharger

    As pointed out above, thats a super basic install. Personally... I would work a good deal, have it inspected, buy it, and then pull and sell the Paxton..... end result is a dirt cheap and excellent condition, very rare color combo car.

    Pulling your car out of storage? Jump starting? READ THIS FIRST.

    I know you meant winter storage, but I didnt know there were no available outlets. The same advice stands. Better to pull the battery and bring it inside and let the car sit untouched. Alternatively, you can use a battery powered inverter to power a maintainer, and then bring the inverter...

    Pulling your car out of storage? Jump starting? READ THIS FIRST.

    Definitely doing more harm than good. Run the car up to temp, bring it home, cover and store it on a tender. No need to start and run it more than once a year, and only do it when you have the ability to run and drive the car. If you are actually utilizing the car, fine... but dont do it for the...

    So... you have a modified and recalibrated OE PCM, eh? Running good? READ ME.

    So, you have a car that is running tip top, right? Cool! Do you have a spare calibration file? Well, DO YOU? I am seeing more and more this exact scenario play out: "Hey DAN! My PCM is/has failed! I need a new one!" -Sure, no problem! "OK, only one thing... its a car that was built and...

    Pulling your car out of storage? Jump starting? READ THIS FIRST.

    First, I cannot speak to the GM design. They may have different pump volumes, clearances, pump height over oil level, etc. Second, 10-20 seconds of cranking to get any pressure at all is literally 5x longer than you would get just starting the engine... and I can assure you, results in more...

    Pulling your car out of storage? Jump starting? READ THIS FIRST.

    1. Oil drops to the lowest point in bearings, and pools. It does not "dry", it thins. This is enough to BRIEFLY avoid galling and material transfer, not build up an active oil film, and will quickly degrade and break down without active flow. This is no different than an engine that ran...

    Pulling your car out of storage? Jump starting? READ THIS FIRST.

    False. I have disassembled engines that sat for nearly a decade. They STILL weren't dry. I would not even consider trying to re-oil an engine that didn't sit for at *least* 3 years. Current oils are NOT old oils. And what you are describing... ABSOLUTELY DO NOT EVER DO THIS. You CANNOT prime a...

    Crank, no spark, no fuel

    Soooooo you didnt read the thread then? LOL This is long since solved. It was a bad ICM + PCM issues, and we remanufactured them.

    Anyone have Oil Filters??

    Your credibility slipped a bit when you claimed the M1 filters use anything but a synthetic media or stainless components. The cases on the Viper filters are nowhere near as stout as the M1 filters. You can be as disappointed as you want to be. I have seen the insides if the Viper filters with...

    Fuel Pump needed or Information on aftermarket fuel pump 97 GTS

    Dont recommend RSI "Dangler". No surge function. They are horribly unreliable at lower tank levels. You dont realize how bad most of these fuel systems "upgrades" are until you log them with high speed data recording systems, and watch them fall on their face consistently.........all while you...
