ouch!

Hope you guys got it back up and tucked back in.

 

yeah...apparently hand tighting the exhaust clamps wasn't a good idea....after it came back dragging i impacted them on....and let's just say that they aren't going anywhere.

Thanks to eveyonethat came out last night. Met some new people and had a lot of fun. And as u guys know that garage is always open whenever you need anything done.

 

How did it sound after it was put back together tight? Still kinda like an SRT like we were saying?

 

Sounded 100% better once it was put on with the impact gun. Can't really get accurate feedback on it yet.....its a brand new exhaust, let it get some carbon build-up and break in. Didn't sound too bad though

 

IT IS F'N AWESOME GUYS!!!! I cannot wait to actually open her up... of course to end the night with my ride home it rained. But... still is kick ass. It back fires here and there, but not like when we took it for the little test drive... So...

THANK YOU TO EVERYONE THAT HELPED IN THE PROCESS. YOU ARE ALL GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!!

 

What did you guys do to poor Karla's car?!

 

yes karla what exactly did u do? i saw the pics.

 

Id love to get out with my sks paratrooper, WW2 russian sniper rifle...havent ever shot it yet but my bud who is in the marines and got it for me said it as accurate to 1mile with the iron sites Also love to take my 270 hunting rifle out

LOL karlas car got the full treatment...she had a lot of parts to put on

Once it gets dry go out and try it out

Loud, Mean exhaust tho with no cat lol

 

Glad it turned out well. Look forward to getting to hear it sometime.

I am f'n sore from snowboarding last night and then going bowling.... I'm getting too old for this chit.

 

Yes, with the tons of help from Dave, The Dans, and some others, I had 60 lb fuel injectors, 2.5 inch pulley, headers, down pipe, exhaust and a tune done last night. Took a lot of time and what not, but it sure did turn out nice! I definitely cannot wait to take her out when its dry!

 

well if you are having trouble with finding i rifle range there is the one i belong too, unfortunently it is a $10 fee for a guest

 

Someone mentioned last night that you were wanting a SS exhaust, just a thought, its still over at Dave's garage. Also, I have the old injectors too if you are interested.

 

WOW... I had no clue that much was going on. I thought it was just a cat-back....

busy busy busy

now I really can't wait to hear it. You'll have to come by and take me for a ride.

 

Anybody got some ideas for the next mod night??? I'm prob. goin w/ a borla exhaust.

 

Starting tomorrow if anyone wants to see the inside of an LSJ. Going to pickup the head and put it back together. Phone will be back tomorrow so call if anyone is looking for something to do. Probably going to need help timing the motor.

 

I think Wes' car is getting put back together at some point this week.

After I get back from Texas I'll be putting on my rear sway bar, new front sway bar links, and all 4 pads and rotors and changing the oil. Weather will determine whether it's a Forest Hills mod night or a McKees Rocks mod night. Coilovers are pushed back till April, but that's going to be a professionally installed mod.

Hmmm, we'll see. Melissa's still in town tomorrow. Will depend on whether or not she wants to do anything. If her class isn't too bad tomorrow, she might feel like coming out to help out.

I should probably start packing, but that's boring. Somehow I get the feeling I"m going to be throwing **** in a suitcase randomly on Friday night...

 

I doubt you and Melissa want to come out. I'm sure I will be doing the same on Friday, I hate packing. Warm weather FTW though. Then we get back to Sping tme here hopefully, Rosso's are also FTW.

 

Yea I wanna do something tonight. I have my sportlines in my car... not on just on my seat, so we could put those on sometime, but I need to get it aligned. Anyways im free from around 8-9ish on, I also have my 2.8 but need my 60lbs, but the 2.8 is in oh so we cant put that on lol.

 

LOL, what exactly do you think we do in State College? Swap motors and listen to Honda humpers all day. Either way, doesn't matter to me, I'll see what she's up to.

Here's what we got to look forward to...

Sat - Hutto, TX - 71
Sun - San Antonio, TX - 73
Mon - Hutto, TX - 75
Tue - Hutto, TX - 75
Wed - Hutto, TX - 78

No rain in sight either.

As for the Rossos, I usually wait until April until the potholes are fixed. Not too concerned with driving conditions, but I don't want to end up with a busted rim. 16s with higher profile tires = less likely to bend a rim. You've seen the roads I get to deal with around here, Wes....

 

My exhaust definately needs tightening as well, when i go form the 1-2 shift at like 3k rpm I hear a lil mini backfire.

 

Nothing like a public PM convo.

 

Eh, what's the point of taking a vacation to a warm climate in the middle of winter if ya can't rub it in????

 

anyone that was there did karla get a belt with her upgrades? what plugs did she use. I am compiling a shopping list for my 2.5 swamp.

 

I wasn't there but you can either get a bigger tensioner pulley (what I got), or a stage 2 belt. Also copper AutoLite plugs will work. Someone told me they saw some very slight slipping in the top end with just the tensioner, but we didn't see any at all when logging many runs.

 

So is there any news on tonight yet?
