Re: Air box

Oh bullshit. As usual.

If PAS put it there, why do ALL S-series have it? Including Every s-series I've looked at in junkyards and owned.

It's a sequence number. Put there near the head of the trim area on the GM assembly line. That same number can be found on many different components used in the vehichle.


Exact response Ive come to expect from you "any time somebody disagrees with me or proves me wrong ill yell and scream and swear like a baby" :roll:

Re: Air box

thats a PAS number on the firewall just a odd spot for it, Ive seen the between the booster and distributor but never that far over

I don't think its a PAS number either. PAS didn't install the engine, (GM assembly lines did) and often the numbers are too low to be added at PAS.

Im not afraid to admit when Im wrong Ill call some of the guys who worked at Pontiac assy and ask them perhaps they can shed some light and "decode" them I do know alot more of the typhoons was assembled at pontiac than the syclone like the cladding mounts, and such

Re: Air box

I bought a atr and tweaked it a little bit, it works very good,that turbo blanket really helped also.

Re: Air box

not sure if this is coincidence or not, but the truck picked up two tenths by just adding them two items and a nice cool night on lower boost than normal....

Re: Air box

Just the turbo blanket makes a huge difference ill add one someday when i decide if the wifes truck is getting a 20g or not probably have housing ceramic coated too (just the outside) along with downpipe

Re: Air box

Headers or manifolds? I was discussing heat with a buddy who works for a engine builder and he said they do everything possible to keep heat in the turbo and pipes to keep the velocity of the exhaust gasses up to help with spool. Did you notice a difference in spool time after the blanket ?

Re: Air box

seems faster,but it was always real fast with the 2 step,atr headers,from a roll it seems to spool a bit faster

Re: Air box

I don't know if I believe EVERYTHING is engineered 100% correct. I've found a few things. Like the Low Turbo Coolant light. Where's your how-to on the "fix" for that?

But your right: I DO believe there is no benefit to most modifications some of you guys do. Other than to negatively affect the re-sale value of your trucks.

I was led to believe the low turbo coolant light was intended to work but for some reason they didn't. I thought I heard one of the pas guys say they ran out of time, or money, gm said f-it or something.... If Koss comes to homecoming I'll ask for you...:tup:
