Why the dickhead response? Jeez.

Any update on how the Champion BC1193 is working out? They are local to me and I’m considering driving over to talk to them.

This is actually a really good question and a valid point…..hopefully someone chimes in with an answer.

That looks excellent, and exactly what I was wanting to do! Thank you!

CleanEG, can you share more on how you fabbed up the fan shroud for the SPAL? I too have the TYC fan and I suspect it is not doing it's job. Seems like it doesn't run properly. I ordered up the KSuspension fan switch harness and would like to upgrade to a SPAL in place of the TYC.

Yeah, so when I ordered the kit from Andy I added on his version of the anti roll washers. Looking at the video, I don’t see those washers...I’m wondering if the place that did the install forgot to put them on... I do intend on adding a stabilizer but not as a fix for the DW. Something is...

Spoke with Andy at Ironman earlier today. Dude never fails to deliver awesome customer service, taking time to answer all my questions no matter how dumb they might be. Hopefully I get this figured out this week.

Backstory: had the Ironman4x4fab one ton steering system, steering brace, track bar, track bar cross brace, track bar drop bracket and sway bar drop installed along with the adjustable short arms, adjustable rear shackles and relocation bracket. Everything was awesome, steering was tight with...

Yep. I have Hylines, they are awesome. I have no overheating issues or heat soak problems, etc. I run a Scangauge 2 to monitor things and the intake air temps during summer last year were very high. Prior to the Thor intake I never had temp issues. Once I put that intake on I noticed during...

I realize the intake air temp reading from the computer may not be the most accurate but still. Pull the data and see for yourself.

So, my ‘01 has the flex plate knock. I tightened down the bolts which helped for a bit but it’s back. Based on what I’ve read here I’m betting the holes are ovaled out and/or the plate is cracked. I figured I’d just buy a new plate now and head it off at the pass before the thing takes a dump...

So, I tried opening up the cowl more by mounting the River Raider snorkel cap over the Thor filter. It helped a little, but not enough for my liking. I did try adapting the River Raider snorkel system to the XJ but it didn’t work out, which is probably why they don’t offer it as a kit for the...

Oh, and I wasn’t impressed by the intake air temps with the Thor. That metal tube running right over the top of the motor just gets cooked. I even tried header wrap on it, which helped some but temps still got crazy high in summer with stop and go traffic. Then there’s cleaning the cone...

I had the same issue. I tried all sorts of stuff, finally traced it down to the throttle body. I ultimately went to a K&N, the Thor was just too damn noisy for a daily driver. The K&N has a whistle to it but it’s much, much less noticeable because it’s not echoing in the cowl and thus...
