I can stop by after work at 5:30

I just can't wait to get that coldpipe I wanna see how much boost i can hold then!!

 

i still would have to come up to your house. need to get my boy.

 

So do you get any kick-back's for getting them so much interest/business?

That would be a very considerate thing....

Sorry to dissapoint you Mark, I bought a stock replacement last night;
I was looking to get something that's GM-Warrnaty approved in-hand BEFORE the car goes back together...

regaurding lining up, my video with Dustin is proof positive that I'm ok with not being the fastest guy around (I knew he was faster than me going into it, and I had a good laugh with him when he posted the video... I wasn't laughing when the oh-so-common Trifecta-bashing ensued.)
Crap, most of the LNF car's I've installed tunes on are probably faster than me because my car is relatively stock;
There was only a (very) brief window of time where I was likely the fastest Cobalt in town - and even then I never flaunted it...
Edwin's car (by my butt dyno) is beatsly compared to my car (full bolt on's c/w tune)...

I am honestly gearing up to get the real "big bird" in the garage, and content continuing to leaving 'little bird' being my fun daily driver;
If you are faster than me, good on you - it's all in good fun

... now if someone like Rene was to show up and be a cocky sob again, then I might make at least a mediocre effort to put him in his place in one way or another;
Speaking of which, I saw a dead ringer for his car a week ago.

 

oh!

I lost track of why I actually came back!!



So I spent some time figuring out hte rental ('14 Cruze);
My car's faster;
My car is more comfortable;
My car's stereo is wayy better than this more "up to date" pos;
The xm on this car doesn't get 3/4 of the stations that I like - most importantly the one that I listen to day in and day out!?
But hey, at least it's not another one of these;



What a painfull couple weeks that was!!

 

Matt and I have been talking and I'm also sure if I asked he would go out of his way to help me out.

I can be a cocky SOB if it means you'll upgrade your car

 

this is very true hahahahaha. he is a cocky sob. hahahha


i am sorry you got a stock replacement


you know its never about winning or loosing for me. but i will tell you it will feel damn good to have my way with a lnf. if possible. to do it on pump gas will be like the icing on top. we wont talk about the money difference in parts tho hahahaha

 

Oh ya there's more $s under your hood than mine. I think maybe you caould take a dead stock tuned LNF. But intake and DP with HPT don't think so

 

Race Jonathan before he puts his parts back on that'll be a GM STG1 car that should be good

 

You couldn't possibly even come close to the level that Rene was...
Just ask Mark.

I never did anything to spite him, until I finally acquiesced to running against him at Race City;
My condition was: Three runs, that way there was no excusing who was faster.
Me: my old Grand Am
Him: '07(?) Cobalt SS 2.4/5spd; that he would talk up, and tell me that he was "so fast that people thought he was turbo charged"

The first time I met him (about nine months before I bought a Cobalt btw), he was smack talking my GA, and telling me he could run 13's in the quarter mile...

Result: I beat him BAD 3/3 runs.

Afterwards, if he even got wind of me at a Cobalt event, he wouldn't show face;
One time (Mark was there), he showed up, saw me, turned around and left, with out even getting out of his car.



You're a good guy... you can't even come close.

 

When I get my car back, because of the way I've done it, I can actually go back to 100% stock in fifteen minutes.

Hint: CED GMS1 MAP adapters.

I bought my GMS1 probably a year or so before I installed it;
I waited to read of issues people were having with GMS1, and it turned out that 99% of the issues were the original way it was released (and the way it's sold from every dealer except CED) is the MAP sensor plugs need to be spliced into factory wiring, and most tech's didn't take due care on the lower MAP plug - as there is barely any room to work there...

I did a full record/save of my bone stock tune, and can flash it back any time I wish.

 

I talk trash because I think it's funny after all I've said with Mark he even said after our first race I was very civil

 

i really think you should go for a ride with him jonathan. it will be a eye opening experience for you.

taylor i want to say sorry, my car is one stubborn ahole. it never wants to co-operate with me either lol. tonights log got me pretty excited tho. i know it can get under 5 seconds 75 to 100. i know i had one tonight but lnf boooiiiiiiiiiiiiiiyyyyy says it had a slight down hill to it.

 

Well your others were uphill I'll back you up on that. I think you can hit a 4 on flat ground when we're all down with only 1 person in the car

 

i got that with 2 people in the car.

 

I have the same struggle. I try to have a poop before I log to get a better time, but just sometimes I don't gotta poop. But I know it slows me down.

 

I'm guessing 1-2 tenths for an extra person

 

exlax

 

or mickie d's

 

That was a hill tho remember you wanted to get to the top to see if any cars / cops were coming the other way and what happens at the top of a hill? It does downhill

 

Mark I totally think you can hit the 4s get this final tune in nice flat road and my fat ass out of there and you'll be in the 4s for sure. I have no doubt

i have no doubts i can do it on a flat road with your fat a$$ in the car. if you remember correctly we passed the houses before i stomped on it. but right after the house is that coolie. so i came up out of the coolie just as im hitting some what flat road before the hill i hammered the gas. if anything there was a slight bowl shape to the run. i do mean slight. lol

 

To me the times don't add up the first 2 were slightly uphill so you'll have a gain there but not by how much you gained on the last one.

Today on our log we'll find a nice flat spot and get your time on the finished tune. Then I'll get your numbers from the first logs to compare I do believe Taylor found you a good second overall

 

lol my god you guys smack talk a lot.. haha

 

True. Lately that's all this thread has been it's been dead

Travis did you get a baseline tune? or are we just starting it Sat?

Oh and Mark says you drive the **** out of the car so why not car him
