why do you leave tickets till you plates are due for renewal, they just accumulate more fees and intrest and cost you more money

It's a one time late fee. It's either 20 bucks or 20% whichever is greater. It doesn't keep adding on every month. Read the back of a violation ticket.

doesnt really matter either or its 20 bucks or 20% that could be in your pocket. its just like leaving a balance on a credit card and paying 20% intrest, its crazy to do

yea i got no tickets right now. Thing that sucks is my insurence on my bike is up on March 28th and i was planning on renewing that as well but i got a wicked deal on a full leather racing suit for a good price so im thinking about holding off on my insurence on the bike. Streets wont be clean enough to ride until mid april anyways.

ya i had a run in with that too. i kept my old one with my new one because some information that was on my old one wasn't on my new one and got pulled over for going through a yellow. cop was gonna give me a ticket and when he came back he was like uh do you have current insurance i was like ya why. i guess i had passed him the old insurance lol. needless to say he kinda chuckled i explained why i kept it and he was like ya you should probably cut that up because thats a $150 ticket.

Whats everyone up to today? I got my inteceptors wired up and tried them out, first time I've gotten on the car in a while and found out I'm boosting 12.5 and climing to 13.5-14ish on a 2.8 on stock exhaust, down pipe and header and a 2.8. There is no way I should be that low, I have way to much restriction. Put in stock boost gauge and it showed the same.

If it isn't one thing it's another I swear. Interceptors are sweet though. Can't wait to get my triple pillar.

I put 500k already on that new clutch breaking it in, and opened her up once finally (Not through a shift either, already fully engaged) and this is what I found haha.

Also I put on a spare bypass valve I had and reseated the SC, it now idles with more vacuum, idles better (doesn't bounce as bad as it used to. Barely there now) and got a few more KPA out of it. I'm not touching this thing besides a tune again, it finally seems to be running right.

the better flowing your exhaust is the less boost you will make. ie when you port out the exhaust on the head, get bigger exhaust you usually lose boost, more boost isnt always better

I know, the man with the smallest pulley with the least boost wins haha.

Just I'm on stock header/DP/Exhaust. Seems to be fine now. Maybe I just didn't tighten my SC down properly or something. Also, what would you guys reccomend for monitering on the interceptors, I've got my stock boost then on one I'm doing Inlet Air and Inlet Air 2, Other one is Knock Retard and ???. Any ones I should watch besides those three or just whatever.

Also, who is excited for another work week!
