i told my guy what i was looking for (i.e., more power on takeoff, tighter shifts, reducing torque management, and reprogram speedo for larger wheels and 4:30 gear swap) He also made the engine run leaner so I run 91 octane & changed the fan cooling temps to compensate. if you want minor...

thanks for the comp.... you should look into a custom tune, because that will also solve your shifting issues, more so after the wheel upgrade. My shiftpoints have been tweeked and they are much more firm than stock (chirps every now and then on take offs). As far as ride quality, be prepared to...

i have had 0 issues with my 26's as far as brakes. I heard that the new body style has larger diameter calipers, and big wheels is not as much of an issue is it has been on older vehicles. I would like stainless steel brake lines, but thats as far as I would take it. As far as MPG, you can gear...

Royal Purple in all my cars.......

mine is horrible!! I installed to Kenwood 5120, and it sucks. I also got tint on my windows and the shop warned me about reception..

wait... that radio has front and rear RCA outs. do your onstar adaptor to the front outputs and the amp to the rear outputs and DONE.... which Onstar adaptor uses RCA??? I have seen this adaptor: http://www.crutchfield.com/p_120OSLAN01/GM-Factory-Integration-Adapter.html?search=onstaR&tp=3486

why not just a get an RCA "Y" splitter at like Best Buy or Radio Shack?

this is the kit i have running my 3 Alpine PDX amps in the Yukon. This is a killer kit, and you will not be dissapointed.... I ran a JL Audio amp kit in the wife's Maxima for way more $$, and I think the Kicker kit is more bang for the buck. Definately Name-Brand is the way to go IMO.

put it this way.... right now you will proabably pay about $61 to fill up with 87 octane, and if you did 91 octane it would be about $66. When times get tough, just eliminate a Starbucks cofee or two, and you save an extra 5 bucks for 91 octane! :)

I tried that before, but it was a true PITA.... since then, it was much easier to deal with the entire seat being removed, imo.

to fully access, you need to remove the 2 front seats, then the center console.

WOW... thats alot of time and effort! I would prefer to save and buy them already made

I have had my Rickensports for almost a year now with no problem

yep. 2-way system is the only way to go!

you need to pull the seats off to remove the center console. The main support brackets attach to each seat (Note: you can use standard 6-sided socket to remove seats, dont worry about the inverted hex-shaped bolts). Then there might be another couple of screws around towards the front (i cant...
