Actually, it's the only one with a CARB sticker, which, if I recall
correctly, stands for California Air Resource Bureau (or something like
that).
As far as voiding the warranty is concerned, I would think, technically, you
would void it with any aftermarket replacement filter unit.

The difference is in the CARB emissions sticker (making it legal for use on
public roads) and that it comes with the CORRECT brackets to that it fits
perfectly.  The aircharger fits "close enough" but rubs a little bit.  Not a
big deal for most people, but it can get annoying.

...but in accordance with the Magnusson-Moss warranty act the manufacturer
or agent performing the service who wants to deny warranty coverage has to
prove that your aftermarket part directly caused the problem being repaired.
They can't just straight-out void all your warranty because you put a K&N on
there.

CARB, yeah, that's it...  Having the numbered CARB sticker proves to
guys at emissions testing stations that the FIPK is a fully legal
replacement...  If you don't buy a unit with a sticker, they can
fail you.  It was a dealer who told me that they honor the FIPK as a
legal replacement under warranty...  Thanks for the memory jog,
Dennis!  :-)

Subject: Team3S: Walbro Fuel Pump characteristics

I have had a Walbro fuel pump (255lph, std pressure) in my DSM for about 2
years now. It has never given me any problems until just recently where it
has an additional harmonic in the "whine" when cold. Not a major issue
(yet?).

I can boost all the way to 20psi w/o knocking, and do have larger injectors
installed. Since it's an A/T it also has a higher fuel pressure regulator
(putting more strain on the pump than a m/t DSM would).

When I FIRST installed it, it was quite annoying. Also, the guage of the
stock fuel pump wire in DSM's is about 18awg, which is clearly not enough
for any real modification of the car. Everytime there was a load on the
electrical system, the pump would change pitch. This was REALLY annoying
when you had indicators or flashers on. To alleviate most of this, I ran a
BOSCH automotive relay, and a 12awg wire (15a fused) straight from the
battery to the relay/pump. Does anyone know if the same defficiency exists
on the 3/S cars?

I have since covered the pump cover with two layers of dynamat, and an old
floormat (rubber/carpet). The noise is now between stock and what it was
with the pump immediately after installation. From the outside, the pump
sounds identical to a 95ish mustang GT.

These pumps are used in the mustangs for certain years, they are also sold
by HOLLEY for nearly twice as much as what you can find on the net. Tom
Stangl sold me mine, and still may sell them (www.vfaq.com). I have heard
some nice recommendations about the person selling them at the link in an
earlier post (had the word syclone in it). Expect to pay about 120$ for the
Walbro.

The supra pump is awesome as well, and is quiet! It is more like $200+, and
may be close to a direct drop in. Be careful with the fuel level senders
when installing pumps, many people have installed the pump itself correctly,
and then run out of gas (the gauge stays at like 1/4 or something). Also
make sure you don't drop stuff in the tank, and try to do it with the tank
empty.

I now have a digital camera, and will take numerous pics as my mods increase
:)

PS: Smoking can and will kill you, either when installing a pump, or later
:). Also don't do what my friend did, and screw one the positive spade
connector on the pump so that it is touching the metal fuel line (ground).
He's lucky he only blew a fuse... TWICE, instead of just the garage/himself.

Subject: Team3S: Aircharger questions

I'm not sure if the aircharger will void the warranty, but wasn't one of
the list members saying how the FIPK (even though its smaller) results in
a much more significant punch?

He compared an FIPK and aircharger back to back.

But let me know about the warranty thing - has anyone taken there car in
under warranty with an aircharger or FIPK installed? Does the CARB sticker
really matter (say in like Cali)?

Thanks

Subject: Team3S: Coolant Confusion

To the person who said their coolant was not 50 antifreeze/50 water -

is 100% antifreeze the real deal? I'm confused.

No, don't use 100% antifreeze.  Use 50/50 if you are in a cold climate, I
think you can go 75% water, 25% antifreeze if you are in a warm climate
where freezing isn't a danger.  The antifreeze protects against corrosion
and raises the boiling point for the warmer climate.

Not sure about the punch.  I went from a FIPK to an aircharger.  I have not
measured the performance difference.  Here's a picture of the two side by
side.

Subject: Team3S: electronics quesion about active aero (again)

I will try this once more... I have removed the front air dam and motor from
my active aero system (its all for sale if anyone's interested) and the
system will stop working as soon as it disengages the first time...  I am
not VERY savvy in the electronics area (I can install things and solder, but
not troubleshoot circuits...), so I do not know what I shoud do to remedy
this problem (I suppose something must be done to the front wire harness
that was attached to the motor). Could anyone help me fix my situation?

(roger suggested I use some sort of "power resistor"... I know what a
resistor is, but wht is a power resistor?)

Thanks so much,
Carlos

It does matter here in the Bay Area...  The guy at the inspection
station year before last looked up the CARB number, and said that if
it weren't listed, it would be a valid reason for him to fail a car.
He also mentioned that if the inspector didn't notice the mod (most
wouldn't) and emissions checked out, you could just as easily pass.
He just 'knew' the car because the Stealth was always his 'dream
car', (like so many other folks I've run into)!  :-)  The guy last
year didn't notice, or didn't mention it...

I called my dealer this morning, and he said "it depends on the
dealer", whether or not they try to stiff you because of aftermarket
items...  "With an FIPK, because of the CARB sticker, most dealers
won't hassle you".  I'd take his comments with a grain of salt,
however, since these guys are so honorable it's almost scary-- not
the typical dealer, from my experience.  They don't even hassle me
with my RPS clutch and Eibach springs, because they installed them,
they know I don't race, and I have a low mileage car...  Even though
I'm 6 months out of warranty, they honor small problems without
charging me for labor (I only pay for parts), and they have Team3S
'listed', giving any of us a 10% discount.  I'm sure they can spare
it, too-- they charge $87.50/hr!

The 'special treatment' I get is attributable to the clout of
Team3S;  I gave them a letter a year ago (on our letterhead),
telling them that I would be listing them on our upcoming "Good
Guys" Vendors Page for all the world to see.  Maybe a good idea for
all of you...  I'll provide a sample letter in Word97 format for
anyone who wants it- email me privately.  And eventually, we
actually WILL have a "Good Guys" page...

Perhaps the rear wing is just 'sticky' and sluggish enough to disable the AERO
occasionally.  Try disassembling, cleaning, and greasing the rear wing to see if
that fixes the problem.

no, i thought of that already, but my rear spoiler is working perfect...
when i had the front air dam installed it usually worked, except when the
FRONT got stuck (you could tell because the light would come on, and the dam
would stay halfway-up or down). Now that there is no front, it thinks there
is a problem with it and the light comes on religiously...

From: "R.G." <robby@freesurf.ch>
Subject: Re: Team3S: electronics quesion about active aero (again)

I was wrong with the power transistor as simulating the motor wouldn't help
at all.

The AA circuit consists of two switches in the front (one rotating contacts,
two position contacts). The motor rotates 180° from one switch to the other
switch position each time it is activated. If the switches are not activated
correctly in the front and the rear simultaneously, the system indicates a
failure.

In your case, you probably have removed a lot of this stuff or either the
motor doesn't rotate correctly or the switches are not ok.

There are several solutions to this but the easist one is just to kepp the
motor and switch running but removing the linkage to the air dam. If this
isn't possible and everythign has to be removed, the switch positions have
to be simulated. You can do this with a relay that is actiovated by the rear
up/down switches. If the rear sees low than also the front must see low and
vice versa.

The limit switch in the rear contacts the check wire "slant" to GROUND.
Therefore, you may be able to connect the ground connection of a relay to
this line (use a diode to prevent power going into the AA ECU from the coil
of the relay). Use a a/b contact relay that connects the front sensing line
with the up-wire when the relay is activated and with the down-wire when
deactivated. This should work .... theoretically.

It may become a problem if the AA ECU uses some timing internally to sense
the stuff as well when it checks the current drawn by the front motor. This
I don't know but as the simulation seems easy I'd give it a try.

Hope this helps,
Roger

Errin et al;

Roger is marginally off base here, albeit in character with our gentleman's

small pic, it was not  the subject of a warning, however, small infractions

Ladies and Gentlemen,
The following is quoted from house rule number 2: (as seen on
http://www.3si.org/techlist.html )

"When posting photo attachments, please keep the size down to around 30K and
limit yourself to two (2) pictures. If you have several images of interest
to the entire list, either put them on a web page or ask if anyone on the
list has web space where you may put them up."

With this in mind I do not see wherein the "small infraction" lies.  Darcy
could you please elaborate.  I was under the impression that I was actually
performing a valuable service to the list members when posting this picture.
It was noted by Darcy, and you shall all know that I took care to ensure
that the picture was not of offending size before sending it.

Haven't we already covered this subject at least once before??  Maybe this
is one of those topics that have to be rehashed on a regular basis.  I think
that the rules were created to avoid having these discussions.

Hmmm, maybe warnings should be issued to people who ignore reading the
rules...

Well, I guess that's allowed on a Friday afternoon.  Maybe Happy Hour has
already started up there in Canada... :)

Hey Oskar;

A thousand appologies. I believe my last post covers this, but let me humble
myself some more. What can I say...I was walking in dense fog.   I'll
flagilate myself before I retire.  :-)

We admins make mistakes too...  We're just doin' the best we can!
And BTW, that's what "Canada" means in French..., "Happy Hour!"  :-)
It's almost beer-thirty here in SF, too!

See, now I commited a violation too!  (No chat allowed!)

I'll make it a legal post...  Last call for Bay Area folks to join
the West Coast Gathering in Monterey this weekend.  Email me
privately...  I'm leaving SF at 8AM...

I'll go to my room now...  :-(  Enjoy the weekend, all!  Where's my
Martini...

Oh, one more thing...  (a picture insert!)

Subject: Team3S: Posting Pix

Hi All,

If you have need of a place for *short term* posting of pix, please let me
know.  I have space on a couple different servers which is
"underutilized".  Then, instead of mailing the pix out as an attachment to
this group, you can forward a URL for interested parties to check out.

Hope this helps.  Email me privately if you want to take me up on my
offer.

Subject: Re: Team3S: Aircharger questions

    I am not sure where this warrantee thing started, but I have taken both of my
Stealths into different dealers for warrantee work and no one has ever said anything
about it.  It is my understanding that neither a modification to the intake before the
MAS and the exhaust after the pre-cats has an effect on the warrantee.  Also, I  had a
dealer install a Centerforce DF clutch as part of a warrantee Getrag swap.  Magnecor
wires will also have not effect on a warrantee.

    Things that the dealer should not care about:
        properly installed aftermarket boost gauge
        Magnecor Wires
        Upgrades wheels/tires
        Upgrades brake rotors
        Turbo Timer
        Big Ass wing (unless it makes the back of the car sag too much)
        Too many stickers ( although if I was a service manager...)
        properly sized tires

    Commonly installed things that could cause a dealer to question warrantee work:
        Definitely a boost controller
        VPC, AFC, ITC, TreMASC, etc.
        Possibly upgraded intercoolers (if they notice)
        13/15G turbos (although it is kinda hard to tell if you are not looking closely)

        Underdrive pulley  (extra load it puts on the accessories)
        Upgraded injectors  (not sure how noticeable this is)
        Missing Catalytic converter
        Gutted pre-cats
        improperly sized tires

    Things I am not sure about since the only reason you really need them is if you have
the above:
            Upgraded fuel pump
            Upgraded fuel lines
            Any type of lowering kit.
            EGT gauge installed in the exhaust manifold


Later,

P.S.  As an aside, while we were at the Frankfurt auto show, Jim and I bitched at the
Getrag rep about our transmission.  As usual nothing came of it, except he gave us some
gummi bears and a Getrag pin.  Now, somehow or another last night that pin made its way
from my computer desk into the carpet of the next room where it was able to position
itself in the path of my wife's foot.  While no permanent damage was done, it just goes
to show you that Getrag evil is everywhere.

It was I who should have double-checked the rules before I
responded to Oskar's post.  Sorry about that.  I had just assumed
that such a rule would go hand in hand with the "no-html" rule.

My bad,
