ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    it be better if you ran it with one. you see inside your factory header is fire. because the valve opens up after the piston moved an inch away from tdc. the gas is still blowing up. if you start the car up, most likely you'll see fire and lots of smoke. that why when im done completing it all, im going to first install the downpipe so that i wont have to worry about the smoke. trust me you could go 2 days without starting it up. take it down to a exhaust shop and get a dp made.
    miss my turbo cb7
    moved onto volvos. dont know how that happened, just did

      get some sort of dump tube to put on there for the meantime...anything thats a foot or longer should be ok to do that. make sure you have a good basemap though since your car wont be reading the 02 sensor, nor will you have a wideband to see what the engine is doing

        be careful no to rev the engine cause if you suck cooler air back into your engine you can bend the valves at least i know it can happen on a non-turbo manifold pretty sure the same thing could happen in this case

          Dont start that car without a downpipe. your going to burn your exhaust valves, and then you will be very upset.... go on ebay and get a downpipe!
          search through MOTORENERGY, if brand name doesnt matter to you. buy an exhaust while your on there too
          Fun with Paint... haha.

                        As far as I'm concerned, he's gone. From the sounds of things, he's not coming back.

                            Yeah, keeping it quiet for the moment. Not sure exactly what happened, but I have reason to doubt his "accident". If it's a lie, I'm pretty pissed. If it's not a lie, I don't want to make a big deal about it... because he DOES deserve our support.
