Keep spraying and wiggling. It took me 20-30 minutes for each one. Try side to side first and keep spraying penetrant. Dropping that long and heavy exhaust would be a pain. Push it back about 3 inches and wedge something between the trans and resonator.

Might try this to keep from having to get it up on all 4 corners. Just don't want to. Lol. I've got a pry bar I've been using so I can use that to move exhaust towards back of the car and some wood I might can use. It's so close to coming out now but it's bound and I can't even twist it any more.

Mine seemed bound at times but I kept at it. It was definitely a pain. The lift certainly makes moving around and pulling and twisting and leverage easier. If you have the space for one, buy one. I did not have a lift until I was about 45.

Starfishing under the car with a fake hip and being 31 isn't fun either. Lol. I've spent too much out of pocket for home/yard upgrades over the last month so it'll have to wait. My brother wants one and to put it in my detached though so trying to go that route. 😅😂

Latest update for 93 octane in my horrible DA in north Alabama. My 60-130 is -1.04 seconds with my last pull uphill as well. Think there may be 1 more revision to 93 or a trans flash. Not for sure. Said he'd have to remote in for the last part.
Once 93 is finalized and I've burnt out as much as possible, getting E85 as well. Hoping to be in the 10.4x on E85 on decent air here. |

So you went right to a custom tune? Who is the tuner? E85 will allow as much power as the engine will hold. I don’t have access to E85 so I run 93 plus water/meth, which is probably about the same as 93 with enough E to make E30.

Utkunoaperformance. I've got E85 all over the place so I'll plan it for strip nights. I told him I didn't want aggressive torque because I didn't want to break anything so my numbers will likely be a tad slower than others with his tunes, plus my DA is usually 2300-3k+ most days.

Getting faster! Modded and tuned and driven right, these cars can be really fast even with not great DA. One member with DP, E30, BM3 OTS Stage 2, and 90C coolant thermostat did 10.1 at 137 mph in 4600 DA.

No. I'm running E85. Technically E83 as that's maximum from the pump.

Because E85 is better than either of those and less of a headache to put in the tank. I requested a safe low torque tune and the higher E% allows just that. All my power comes in on the top end to help not break trans/diff or bend a rod. An aggressive timing table on this would likely be in the 5.9x range but also break something. I can run as low as E70 on that flash
