They're crazy bright

I've had them as my backup lamps for over a year and they're bright. I had a set in my DRLs but one quit working after a few months

What part number/supplier for the LED's are you using.?

Mike I have been using the GP Thunder line of bulbs.

SO the local county decided to oil and chat a bunch of bridge decks, and instead of closing a lane and working on a side at a time they didn't and so I drove right through a fresh patch of it. Needless to say I was pissed, so I spent 3 hours and 2 cans of WD40 later I got most of it off. I accidentally got a little WD40 on the frame so I need to grab some undercoat and touch it up.

Also the MAP sensor freaked out on the tow tune, and threw an engine light. So my tuner reset and suggested I pick up a race valve. So I keep adding to it, have the EGR delete, Race Valve, TransGo Jr and fluid to update.

Couple pics of it cleaned up as it started to rain last night.

Thanks, why are you installing a race valve.?

Its dropping rail pressure while towing.

Hate to be that guy, but are you sure it's the relief valve opening and not the injectors/cp3 returning too much fuel?

You know I need to log it, but the way it seems it would lead me to believe the relief valve.

B16gsr,
I installed my reverse lights tonight. Now I wish I had bought a couple sets, they are great.

Once I saw the bulbs bg16gsr recommended were sold out I bought a set of these.



This is the only pair of led bulbs I have so I don't know how they compare to the ones he recommended. They are in factory tail lamp assemblies. Apologies for the derail.

They're not very bright. Might be good for drls. The retro solutions ones maybe a bit obnoxious for drls.

Try flipping the bulb in the socket.

I just installed my led reverse lights that bg16gsr suggested. I wans not impressed and want a brighter light. I mover them to the drl and ordered another bulb for the reverse lights. But for 9.99 its a pretty good bulb. Looks great as a drl.

Fyi...... The seller on eBay will no longer be selling these bulbs.

Almost to 20k miles, doubling the miles that she had when I picked it up less than 6 months ago.



I am really pleased with the tunes. EGT's are low when towing.


Last tank I had the car on the trailer behind me and towed for 210 miles of this tank.


Listed the PYO's with the new 285/75 Coopers and picking up a set of these if they sell for my winter setup.


My Autometer boost gauge failed shortly after install so I sent it in for repair last Thursday and received this yesterday, pretty impressed.



Next week I hope to get the EGR Delete, Nictane Race Plug, PCV Reroute/Catch Can and undercoating done.

If you buy a set of those reproduction Denali wheels, especially not in chrome, I'd like to hear your feedback on the quality. I want to get a set of polished ones for my RCSB.

I wanted a set of polished but they only have the black and machine and black chrome. I will let you know what I end up doing.

What is that your calculating the mileage with?

Did not get to work on the truck this past week, as I was working on finishing up the Corvette. But felt pretty positive about this. My DIC is almost spot on with my hand calculations.





Vette turned out pretty well too.
