    01 Tahoe STOCK radio to DNX5120 concerned???

    I dont have this exact stereo but I just tied the parking brake wire in with the ground wire. Works perfect. I also just used the stock remote wire to turn the stock amp on and tied that wire also to run my aftermarket amp. Everything works.

    what should i use to remove the gasket material?

    WOT is good for engine?

    This practice is also very true for Rotary engines. I have a RX8 that is my second car and they say to wrap that thing out once a drive. I can defiinitely notice when its time for it to be done because the car will start to run a little rough when its idles. Plus watching the needle on the tach...

    Plugs / Wires

    I am trying to do a plug/wire replacement right now and I am having problems getting the wires off the plugs. Is there a way to get the metal heat shield off? I have tried twisting the wires, squeeze the ends, sprayed some WD-40 and nothing seems to work. I am trying not to break the wires as...

    Do I have a Bose System ???

    I am in the same boat. I bought a deck the other day thinking that I had the Bose radio. After reading this thread, I now realize I dont have it because there is no Bose badging. I went to Best Buy today and he said in order for my aftermarket deck to work, I have to take one of the stock wires...

    Custom tune..... myself??

    I have HPTuners and I love it. Granted it isnt noob friendly but if youre really interested in tuning, just buy some books and teach yourself. Thats all I did and I consider myself pretty good as do a lot of people I tune cars for. I just got my OBD port working so I dont have alot of time...

I bought HPTuners for a car I had earlier and plan on doing some tuning on this truck. I went and plugged it in and it said there is no power to the port and...

    Mpg increase with tuner

    A stock computer holds ALOT of power back. Dont think for a second just because youre stock you wont benefit from a tune. I own HPTuners and took it upon myself to teach myself how to work on tunes. I have a '98 Camaro SS that I tuned before I made upgrades to it. I gained 53whp just playing...
