Okay, I'm entiely stock, just finished a tune-up and the engine is running great, but now I'm having another issue. The boost doesn't really build up entirely. It only gets between 3-6psi(according to the very accurate stock guage: read:sarcasm) and it only gets that high under hard...

As some of you know, my ty is getting a tune-up(parts come in about an hour from now), and so I'm borrowing my dad's for the time being. And here's my question, is there a difference between ty's? Mine seems to have a lesser turbo "jump" and a seemingly stronger high end. Driving my dad's on...

Well, set up an appointment at the shop today to take care of a few odds and ends on my ty. Unfortuneatly, it's the same shop where my dad takes his(which is getting a tune-up now too). So I called, and they said that I just called too see if my truck was done, and thought it was odd to be...

Well, I had a noise coming from the right rear wheel on a right turn under acceleration. Thought it was the leveler, but after disconnecting the sound changed from an almost ABS pumping sound to a grinding sound(taking that out fixed some other noises though)... almost like something is...

Just wondering what size speakers are in the dash and backseat. Want to keep an eye out for some new ones. Got my ty with a Blaupunkt(sp?), and I think it blew out the speakers... I guess I listened to Govt Mule a bit to loud yesterday... oops.

Okay, this should be easy. Does anyone have a list of all needed fluid types/brands that should be used. I'm replacing EVERYTHING this week, and want to make sure it's right. And when I say everything, I mean it, oil, coolant, trans fluid, brake fluid, diff. fluid, and even the washer...

Looking to replace the exsisting exhaust. Right now it has a dual pipe that is quite restrictive. Wondering what people have, or what you've heard about different systems. Right now I'm looking into ATR or Borla. But it doesn't look like Borla does tys anymore... hoping I can find a system...

Well, It's a done deal. I just got home from Florida this weekend, the proud owner of a 93 black Typhoon with 26k miles signed by Dale Earnhardt. Other than a smacked cladding and needing a tuneup very badly, it's in great condition. Other than that, all it needs is a real exhaust and a few...

Wondering where a good place to buy metal is. Looking at buying a ty with a bit of rust and want to know if the price is worth it to fix it up. I'm guessing fenders run about $90, doors about $150, and tailgate around $100... Am I way off here? Don't know yet what exactly I would need, some...

Well, I'm very close to getting a ty, possibly as soon as next weekend. But now that I'm down to three choices, some insight might help me make up my mind. The first two options are about the same, mid 80k mi range, fairly clean other than a few rust warning signs, with strong engine/trannys...

Okay, I might have found a ty. Now the question is, how much do I need for the stock upgrades. I want to get a good solid price before I buy, probably won't stop me, but more of a question of if I go out to eat this month or not. The price leaves me a good cushion, but since it does, I would...

Hmmm, I just noticed this section. And so, I'll post why I'm looking to get a ty. My car is a 1972 Olds Cutlass Supreme olds350, fairly built (360hp/410ft.lb) the only downside is it's an TH350 with hiway gears(3.0?), still goes pretty good though. Anyway, I just finished getting it re-tuned...

Okay, here's the deal. I've heard both sides, but I want to see how well these trucks hold up. Does your SyTy run day to day with out fail(or at least make it from point A to point B most of the time) or does it just run from repair job to repair job. I've heard people use them as DD's...

Well, I've been looking for a ty for a bit now, and starting to realize I may have to set my sights a little lower. So I'm starting to search around the 100k mi range. Anyway, question is, at about what mileage does what start to fail. ie: engine/trans should be rebuilt, turbo/pumps should be...

How many ty's in the for sale section are still around. Looking through the first couple pages, I can't tell if they're still on the block(except for the obvious new posts and such). In reality I'm trying to get a good notion of market value... which is pretty dang low. I really don't want to...

Is there any difference between the 92 and 93 typhoon? Options, available colors, drivetrain, anything like that. I've always heard that you should never buy a first year car, but does that really matter 10 years later? That and technically the 92 typhoon is a second year car after the...
