Yeah.... The sound guys really have no clue. I don't care if they went to school for audio engineering, 75% of the places suck at sound. I can do a better job with my own gear. All the recording I've done have been learned on my own. It's like they

I'll turn every wrench and bolt if need be....been there done that. Let me know if any of y ou locals are interested. Had the intake off last weekend and felt for shaft play, zero play. The kit was installed April 2012 and has around 10k on it

You got any dyno numbers with that bad boy? If so, can you post the graph and boost level?

Hmm.. I'd love to run my stock turbo @24psi vs your 252 @20psi just for the hell of it to see how that thing pulls. I doubt I'd beat you, but it sure would be fun to try..

When gremlin85(John from Mass) tuned me he said my car would give his lnf on meth a run for his money. I'm always down for a few pulls if you ever want to get together.

Yea would've been great if it didn't drizzle, neither of us would have had any traction.

Yeah I know, you're right I definitely should have. I was still a little annoyed about the whole dyno thing to be honest, plus I ended up having to do a tune that day anyways so it just all around couldn't happen.

I still say we should meet up and get a couple good pulls in anyways.

Who was the 4th balt there btw?

Lol.. drrr.. I don't know why I said that. Although in my stupid head Chris will always drive a cobalt no matter what he rolls up in. Even if his stupid G8 is clearly nicer.
