I'm no longer going to need to do an injector swap

I called up vince while i was on watch and let him know what was going on and emailed him the info that the guys in my sts thread have been feeding me and he took that into account and made an adjusted tune tonight and in a few hours he sent it to me over the net and i loaded it up on the car when i got off watch... SWEEETTTT is all i got to say, still runs a bit rich its now at 11.1:1 when im at WOT under boost so he is going to adjust it so we get it to 11.5:1 and call it a day. Then when my new header and down pipe get in we will tune it for 15psi

Hey justin,

I know you said you wanted my OBX header... if you still want it you can have it if you help me install my new ZZP LSJ shorty header and ZZP high flow cat downpipe

so one of the other dealers is tryin to do a dealer trade. there are enough discounts and rebates to take care of my negative equity... my down pay would be lil to none. soo im happy... if the one at priority comes then cool ill snag it. but i doubt it will hit by the time i get there.. if it took this long. plus i want ohio plates. this saves time and money on that issue

somewhere like K-mart, Walmart, or Target should have glass for that. Do you want to meet at the Janaf shopping center in front of CiCi's around 10:45-11:15. Its close to the show

if you havent signed paperwork by 11 or 12, just walk out. and tell the salesman that. and keep looking at your watch the whole time, that will drive him nuts, lol. and complain how much faster the other dealership was when you bought the other car. and have them mail the plates to your house here in Va. !

true...I think they'll have the advantage off the line since our boost is immediate...now the highway may be a different story. Not sure how quick they'll be able to build boost while driving. We need to make sure we exploit their weak spot

check this video out....techno kitties

I think these things are gonna ride like a saab imo. Same type of setup ecotec turbo same tranny. If they are anything like the saab's I've driven at Bay they need some stage kits quick. My ss/sc was able to kill any of them with exception of a 9-2x on the lot. The funny part is you guys know I'm not modded as much as some of you are
