ok so the other day my friend jamie, his wife jill and i were driving back to their place and we r on a 5 line road... 2 in each dir... turn lane... so im cruisin along we just finished doin the CAI and were seeing if the "Denim Dyno" could tell any difference.... so i hear this sound like a mildly pissed off bumble bee and my buddy goes "HEY MAN! mess w/ this car!!" as he points out a 92-94ish Beretta... i figure what the hell, lets try it... so i stomp it... from 35 we are door to door.. we are fairly even until roughly 55. at this point then he starts walkin on me and pullin HARD theres a buick rondevuez (sp?) comin up in the inside lane so i figure "ok he'* made his point..." but no.. he scoots into the turn lane and continues pulling even HARDER i finally give up at around 65.. and Jamie is laughing hystariclly.. he then procedes to point out it was a De-Badged GTZ w/ the 3.1 bored .40 over w/ a custom ground cam, exhaust, and forged rods...... i guess the fact i held w/ him from 35-55 is... wellll respectable (dare i use that word there?) considering im running a series II w/ just a CAI and MAF screen pulled.... also needin a tuneup BADLY....... oh well i wont make excuses... i got my
handed to me... lol

A guy at advanced auto was yelling at me saying there was nothing wrong with bosch )2 sensors and they were better than AC Delco. I brought my business to the dealer instead.

FireDevil, Those bosh might give you a year or so... After that take the wires back and make them give you a new set per the Lifetime warranty...![Twisted Evil](https://www.gmforum.com/gm/images/smilies/icon_twisted.gif)

Bosch may work good on other cars, they seem to have a good reputation, Just don't work with the silly H bodies I guess...
Taylors are cool, i'd recommend www.grandprixstore.com (www.pfyc.com subdivision) for a set, where I got mine, a lil long, but no biggie.
