Honestly, all the money into it, the car still has some hicups

Its not perfect, but needs to be looked at again.

I would like to get it in this year sometime so itll be ready for next summer. Maybe i can put 1,000 km on it in 08

Hey 2Tone, it happens when you deal with high performance stuff. The more fancy the systems the more trouble one gets.

Nah, i disagree.

All the money invested should be bettering the car, not making it worse.

You have not really had many miles on the car to work out the bugs and let the car settle in. I would give it some time.

I thought i would update this. Sooo, the shop called me today to tell me that the cable appears ok and they think it is bound up somewhere in the actual line. Theyre saving it for me to pick up. This crap has less than 200KM on it

This is the 2nd BBK product on this car to fail

I have lost all faith in BBK Performance, but then again, i am sure they will say blame the shop. Maybe they're right, who the hell knows anymore cause clearly i have no idea.

Maybe Brian was right, screw paying these shops, i should have done it myself . LOL

Regardless, i stopped buying BBK Performance parts after that disaster with the intake and since Nick closed shop, i went to a new one.

So, both variables are out of the equation now, lets see what happens now.

This is the cable i had bought here:
BBK Performance 1505 - BBK Adjustable Clutch Cable and Quadrant Kits - summitracing.com

I also bought the firewall adjuster.

I am replacing it with this one:
Summit SUM-700100 - Summit Adjustable Clutch Cable and Quadrant Kits - summitracing.com
