Subject: could it be .. no more pinging
IP: Logged

Message:
i have been having a slight problem with pinging lately under hard aceleration. that is until i installed a new turbo muffler. now it seems that the pinging is gone. could just changing the muffler do that? i did notice it is a little quicker to rev now than with stock muff.
mods as follows: IAT relocate, 180 stat, turbo muffler(rest exhaust is stock), TPSset @ .76vdc and waiting to install 1.7 RR's. sorry for rambling.

if you have a 5.2 you could be having a plenum gasket issue as well. That's the gasket on the bottom of the intake. Watch for excessive oil consumption and a return of the pinging. Look down the throttle body and see if the bottom of the intake is wet. It could be the start of something.
