I have fallen in love with RWD in the snow (ice is a different story). Sandbags in the trunk, what what. Drift like what, what what.

Are you a skilled enough listener?

Yeah, I have no doubt that's a large part of the issue. I'm going to get a few things sorted out over the while, new IM gasket and probably try and run a 2.5 bar MAP instead of the stock one that doesn't fit quite right, as well as look at some of the TB wiring. That idle miss needs to go. Car ran alright today since it was above like 20 degrees mostly.

So who was on 100 North around 4...white coupe...fender stripes, aftermarket headlights (not sure what kind...had LED strip along the lower portion of the lenses)...didn't see if it was an LS or LT...couldn't tell if anything else was done. It came by me too fast (was in my work truck) and by the time I got in the fast lane, it was a few cars ahead.

idk what stages are considered. But even stock the gen1's were throwing low pressure at the pumps. I had a dashhawk to watch mine and it wasn't bad but lower than what you'd like to see.

I live in Cambridge and work in Rush City. I cruise down to Ricekillers and stuff once in a blue moon, but it's kind of lame a lot of times and not worth the drive for me unless we get a few cars together or something.
