Talking Are You Gay - Male Self Examination

If you answer yes to any of these questions, you probably are...

1. If you are over forty, and you have a washboard stomach, you are
gay. It means you haven't sucked back enough beer with the boys and
have spent the rest of your free time doing sit-ups, aerobics, and doing
the Oprah Diet.

2. If you have a cat, you are a Flaaaaming homo. A cat is like a dog,
but gay -- it grooms itself constantly but never scratches itself, has
a delicate touch except when it uses its nails, and whines to be fed.
And just think about how you call a dog... 'Killer, come here! I said get your
ass over here, Killer!' Now think about how you call a cat...'Bun-bun,
come to daddy, snookums!' Jeeezus, you're fit to be framed, you're so gay.

3. If you suck on lollipops, Ring-Pops, baby pacifiers, or any such
nonsense, rest assured, you are a *******. A straight man only sucks
on bar-B-que ribs, crab claws, raw oysters, crawfish guts, pickled pigs
feet, or ****. Anything else and you are in training and undeniably a ***.

4. If you refuse to take a dump in a public bathroom or **** in a
parking lot, you crave a deep homosexual relationship. A man's world
is his bathroom; he defecates and urinates where he pleases.

5. If you drink anything other than regular coffee. A straight
man will never be heard ordering a 'Decaf Soy Latte'. If you've put a
Decaf Soy Latte to your lips, you've had a man there, too.

6. If you know more than six names of non-standard colors or
four different types of dessert other than ice cream and pie, you might as
well be handing out free ass passes. A real man doesn't have memory space
in his brain to remember all of that crap. If you can pick out chartreuse or
you know what a 'fressier' is, you're gay. And if you can name ANY type of
textile other than cotton or denim, you are faggadocious.

7. If you drive with both hands on the wheel, forget it, you're dying
to tune a meat whistle. A man only puts both hands on the wheel to
honk at a slow-ass driver or to cut the jerk off. The rest of the time he needs
that hand to change the radio station, eat a hamburger, or hold his beer.

8 . If you do not send this off to all the males on your e-mail list
because you are afraid of hurting their feelings then you are
definitely on the verge on being a fudgepacker.

We won't know until we check your idc's with the turbo installed.
Just so you guys know hpt doesn't display the idc correctly. If you do the math.

Rcts has a nice dynojet dyno. I'd give Reg a call and he may be able to get you in sooner

here is a vid when we were there dynoing my friend Nicks car. at low boost 10psi.

I was more looking at seeing weather or not the idc's were way up over 110% or not. I don't deny that hpt may be off, but at least it would give you an idea as to weather the injectors are topping out, or nice and average. I can't see it being a bad idea upgrading injectors if you start pushing boost, and where they were sitting at 50-70%, and then you start pushing 10-30 lbs of boost, and hpt reads way up top.

Also, I wonder if the poor idc readings in hpt could be due to the fact that ifr's and offsets are not properly set in the tune? I have noticed that rarely is there anybody running fuel tables that are even close to the rated flow rates of the available injectors out there. As an example, the offsets in the base stage 2 tune are way way too low.

I was seeing after tuning MAF and some VE that at WOT my IDC were no more than 43% in a 2nd and 3rd gear pull using the same cfg file I used to log the car before I used the injector control tables which was showing almost 90% IDC.

So I don't know why it is so low now.

hmmmmm....

P.S. Chris, thanks for letting me hang on to your cable. I and Neo have made some great gains in tuning. We hope to be able to start tuning others in the next couple of months.
