intake problems

[AVE0SAM]

and the verdict is....(drum roll).... tensioners and belts own me. the timing belt tensioner broke and the timing belt jumped a little causing it to fire a little early causing the knock thats not even the good part, we just changed the timing belt less than 1,000 miles ago and when it jumped the teeth it messed them up so now not only do i need a new tensioner but i need a new belt now to recap like in febuarary i had my accessory belt tensioner break and mess up that belt so we changed the timing belt then too, hence why belts and tensioners own me...word to the wise have your mechanic check your tensioners out real well when you get belts changed

where did you get your intake? LMAO

is this a seriuos question or r u just yanking my chain? lol i made it, the intake is fine but its just i dont feel like the hassle with having a CAI any more seeing as i just want it to get me from point a to b and plus i dont feel like making a better mount. id rather just make it a GOAT style air intake, that way i just dont have to jack up my car to get to the filter plus eliminate the mount that keeps breaking. too bad something is really effed in the a with the engine so i couldnt see the difference

just yankin' Sam...Do you want to see close pics of mine to help with your design? I hear ya when you say you don't want to jack up the car when changing the air filter...sounds like it's going to be a pain when I have to clean my filter. I figure I'll do it before summer when I put on the summer rims and tires.

yea i thought u were....yea im tired of haustles with my car, ill leave that for a real project car because its a pain when something goes wrong on ur only car....oh mike ull know if it jumped timing because i could barely get that thing up to the shop, it was loosing power all over the place and couldnt go above 2500rpms...i cant wait til its fixed so i can see wat the SRI feels like. its suppose to be fixed by tomorrow night if they have the tensioner in stock

haha yea dont feel like wasting the money or have the time with college, thats the main reason i need the car because i drive 82.5 miles every monday and friday to go to and from college up in Newark....hopefully i can get the car back wednesday so i can clean the inside out finally (which i was suppose to do yesterday til it took a poo on me) and finish the install of cold air grabber....ill leave the rebuilds for my k-series project car build
