    DIY Intake failed State Inspection

    Too much to copy and paste, so here's the link. Scroll down. It's in there. The even revised the muffler policy. A turbine (ie:turbo) used to be permissible without an additional muffler as a muffling device. Now, if it came with a muffler and cat, it must have one. Texas Department of Public...

    Alignment shop in DFW

    I had always heard good things about them, very honest. They aligned mine just after I bought it in 2002. Have not needed an alignment since. I likely go back when the time comes though. Glad I could help.

    Laminack Tire in Garland on Shiloh Rd just south of Kingsley. They did mine as few have rack to fit a cc. We also use them for our ambulances last I heard.

    Kids Car Seat?

    Far better to use a seat with a shoulder strap. Unfortunately in the case of a Super Duty that means a window seat. But the benefits of the should strap outweigh the negatives of an outboard location. That is where my 5 year old is securely strapped.

    Humor van turbo

    A wastegate does nothing for Lag. It is there to bypass exhaust to limit excess boost on the top end. The reason the van turbo does not have one is due to the large exhaust housing. It will limit total boost by nature. Now, the larger housing will in theory make it lag more than your stock one...
