    Turbo Parts

    I need a new turbine wheel for a PT53 turbo. Precision will no longer sell me turbo parts. I did a search on the internet and it seems like I am dealing with deep voodo magic and there are few to none offering turbo parts for sale. I have a place close by that will do the balancing for me...

    E85 & higher compression

    I was reading another thread and someone mentioned that it would be better if we would raise the compression of a motor and make it more E85 specific. I am in the process of gathering parts for my TTA and will be setting it up to run on E85. I am going to pull the motor to look for a knock. A...

    V6 conversion

    I picked up a GTA Trans Am for misc. parts. It was a 350 TPI car. From what I remember reading in order to put a Turbo V6 in the car the K member has to be changed. Do I remember correctly?

    T-Top Trim

    I was wondering if anyone knew if the T-Top weatherstripping/trim is still available from GM. I do not really need the weatherstripping where the side window meets the T-Top. What I need is the harder rubber/plastic trim that covers the weatherstripping. The part that you see when looking at the...

    BP Turbo Oil

    The airline mechanics were working on the airplane I was on. We were waiting at the gate while they preformed their magic. It so happened that I was in the window seat and I looked down at the golf cart that they used to transport their tools to the airplane and low and behold the back of the...

    I have a TA49 Turbo that I want to install on my TTA. The wastegate hole has been ported on the Precision AR 63 exhaust housing.

    Razor Alky Kit for TTA

    I just purchased a Razor Alky kit from a board member for my TTA. Although I received a full set of instructions I still could use some help installing the Alky kit on my car. I would really appreciate pictures. They would really help me understand what is written in the instructions. The...

    Motor knock? Camshaft?

    My TTA develops a knock when the motor gets to operating temperature. When cold no knock but it does not run as smooth as I think it should. It runs rough when cold and is worse when hot. I had some very knowledgeable Buick V6 guys listen to the motor when cold and then to the knock as it warmed...

    Translator & LS1 MAF Direct Scan reading

    Just put the Direct Scan on the TTA and was wondering if the MAF reading was right. At WOT the MAF reading increased as the RPM's went up but the highest reading at 5000 RPMs was 195 g/s. Is someone is using a translator & LS1 MAF on their TTA? Could you check a Direct Scan file and see if my...

    I am going to be upgrading the fuel pump and adding a hot wire kit to the TTA this week end, therefore I will be removing the gas tank and panhard bar or rod.

    Back spacing question?

    I am looking at a set of 15X8 wheels for the front of my car, and a set of 15x10's for the rear.

From what ive seen from previous post the 15x10's will be allright but I don't know...

    Noble

    Well I returned to Kansas City last Saturday night wondering all the way back why a Buick sponsored event would run a Pro Tree. I talked to several people since I have been back in Kansas City and voiced my concern many times. I just could not understand why the Pro Tree? It was almost like we...

    Anyone using the ATR Down Pipe? If so how did it fit? Did you have any problems with the installation? I am going to start modifying a stock TTA and this seems like a good place to start. Jeasen
