Vk45de and vk56de

Something confuses me about these engines, how come the way smaller displacment produces much higher horse power. Talking about 340 vs 310. And why use the 5.6 in the first place ? Is the higher torque really that important ?

I have the problem with speaker on my stock bose. Note that the volume increases with speed because we have speed sensitive speakers.

Pipes in placs of cats

Hi all, The two cats connected to the mainfold are clogged. Am looking at dumping them and replacing them with pipes. As for the o2 sensor i will try the spark plug non-fouler trick, if it doesnt work i dont mind the ses light being on. The question is would this affect performance or mpg and how ? ...

You should be fine with Copper as long as you're aware of the shorter life. What part of Lebanon do you call home? I've always wanted to visit. Im from the south, but lebanon is 140 miles long so its not a large place. If you would like to visit, August is a great time. A lot of places to visit and...

Spark plugs

So its time for a set of spark plugs. I know it's answered some where before but cant seem to find it. Can i use copper plugs instead of laser platinum ? I wont run 30k before 5 years so inboth cases it's going to be a long time before i change them. Can i get coppers and save some cash ?

But i never felt a missfire, it runs very smoothly. Though its draining gas like a v8. I should mention that it's all uphills driving with low speeds and a heavy foot, and daily trips barely exceed 5-7 miles.(worst combination ever) i hardly get 11 mpg in real. It sows 13.4 on the dashboard never h...

Everybody knows lebanon is the place to go when visiting the middle east. You should come here next time. You get to do water activities and snow activities at the same day plus all the sight seeing you could imagine in addition to hotels and resturants.

I had both a bad sensor and a weak bat. Before the sensor went of it used to take seconds to fire up. Replaced the faulty sensor and the bat did cause misoperating.
