you guys have got to be down! i cant roll up by myself....
oh! update on my interior...i got most of the paneling gutted out i just need to get to the center console to do some blue on it and i need to unbolt the seatbelts and it'll all be out. im recovering the rear deck and headliner tomorrow and hoping to finish it all ready to drive up to washington for HIN. im hoping to get at least one person to go with me!

 

are you ******* kidding me!!!!!!!!

 

nope, i didnt ask them to. i asked them to make a new header and they said they would try to salvage it becuase its at a good size for mid rpm hp, right where the turbo starts its spooling

 

Another damn week without my car!

Need to break the clutch in before I start racing Langley and cutting it too close for comfort.

 

the fiero still coming along well?

 

I have to call again and find out. Last word was that they had disconnected the battery which sent the alarm into a frenzy and they couldn't get it to stop.

 

i got the panels under the dash (gllove box, the panel with the trunk release) the ones along the side under ther door and all the clips in my head lines all sprayed black.... im doing the side panels in the back seat today and im recovering the rear deck as well maybe the door panels if i can swing it i just have to find the tool to pop the u clip off the window crank....all in all she's coming along quite nice. the autobalt's interior is nearly done befre i deploy anyways. when i get back i might mess with a new headunit and reupholster the seats, we'll see...i'll try to upload some pics later on but for now i've gotta get this stuff done.

 

Hey, any of you local guys have a set of 42# (same as Stage 2) injectors laying around?? If so, PM me please!!

 

nahhh just 60#ers and they are going in my car today

 

if anybody heads to dc for hot import nights call me im going up there. 504-756-6023

with that said, i instantly called up vince, we are setting up the turbo for 14psi of boost or reduced boost if we reach 300 wheel trq before 14psi of boost

He has changed my auto matic TCM factory settings to as follows

All gears shift at 7250 rpms vice the factory 6250 rpms : good to keep the boost going
While shifting into the next gear the factory setting was 4200 rpms it was fully in the next gear, was now changed to 5000 rpms to be fully in gear
He upped all my line pressures to eliminate slipping
End Resault will be 314 whp and 300 wtrq, Adam owns all HEHEHEHE hahahaha

 

im not worried bout keeping up ha ha. Impulse is getting 86ed when i get the deposit. only few know what im getting. i need suggestions for a new car nickname. NOTHING GAY....... im sure Danew can help with a gundam nickname ha ha.

 

ok heres a funny one...so me and steve are goin up to my shop today to do some swapping...so he calles me and is freaking out about "man my car wont start..i dont have power or anything" so i said get one of yuor neighbors to give you a jump...its 12:00 steve says"noboys is up this early"...ok wowhahaha...so then he says let me go check this out...so he gets in the cal and fiddls around then he goes to his trunk and then i hear this on the phone..."oh wait my connection came off...i didnt tighten it"....wow way to go steve..he connects it and cranks right up... hahahahahahahaha

 

don't worry, my tvs will be here in a short while, and all of your threats will be quelled. Nataku or Heavy arms is another good name that I would consider.

 

All this talk about what power adders and what you're gonna get and nothing about proof. Take them to the track, beat a 12.97@109 and then you can talk.

 

no problem. I'd be more than happy to.

 

hey hot import nights was pretty sweet last night turbo chargers came out true woodwork and a few cobalts were racing around the parking lot. In the actual show there were only 2 balts one of which was on here. Badgirl from cobat addiction dunno if she won anything... I would assume she did because that is a sick Balt. Half my interior is done getting ready to suede the head liner and before it decided to rain I was going to paint the door panels. I got the rear deck suede'd tho and it looks good kept the rear headrests out looks alot better. Its comin along guys I'd like to meet up with yall before I deploy so let me know whats going on this weekend!

 

dont mind if i do. lol.

The car will be ready for racing come friday, providing the GT Tuner shows up at my door by wednesday.

lol, well then, maybe ill run the risk of shearing my CV axels and crank the boost up to get this turbo making its 530chp just to smoke ya, lol

 

uh oh

 

I am not part of the 90% that feels adding an intake makes me faster than everyone else in the country. I am putting in the effort and money to make my ride solid. So if you are running in the 12's then great. I want to be there as well. But I don't have much experience with working on cars and would like to learn while working on mine. When mine is close to being done, and it will soon, then I will be posting numbers just like everyone else without having to make myself feel better because I destroyed some pos honda.
