Not having the problems of being stuck at 9psi anymore? How'd you fix that?

Oh wait, you have the cable to flash stuff? If so, we might need to hang out so I can get some more updates to my tune also without having to drive down to Tucson again right now. Tryin' to save the gas money :-(

Gald to hear your making some progress Tyler. It'll all be worth it in the end.

Brett I hope your tuning is going well. Liked to see some good times from ya.

I'm gonna ba having a lil trouble getting back to the tracks soon. Still no word from my installer on when of if he is gonna redo my trans and install the new throw-out bearing. Plus to top it all off, my car got broken into just last night. Stole my deck, i-pod, AFR gauge and my helmet. Just been a rough week for sure

Truck is out on the street. Garage was full at the time and I just got the car back from the shop cleaning it up and had to take some parts off it. Just was bad timing.

Cops said they got some really good prints. So hoping it helps them find them. I'm being realalistic and know we ain't getting our stuff back. Just hope they get caught.

Cops were cool though and lightned the mood quoting Super Troopers LOL. One really loved the truck

SuperTroopers = One of the best movies Ever!

Really sorry that happened, it sucks. Nothing worse than walking out to your car and seeing it got f@#ked while you weren't there. Your heart just drops.

edit - By the way, you'll have to tell Chris that cinammon tea is f'in awesome. I've made multiple pitchers now and it's the best.

Yah Yah. Flywheel is getting resurfaced today, I am hoping the main bolts and clutch/flywheel bolts come in today (since I order main studs from summit and didnt know that is was for a 2 bolt main 2.0...? which wont work)

I finally have a good compression tool after some fabrication of some parts for get the EVO spring compressor to work on my car.

Once I get the final parts, which the rings should be in today too, I will start the putting back together. That is going to be fun! I give it two day to put it all back together. (the engine)

I cant wait to fine tune this thing. The cams will be fun to tune since it is the first cammed car I will tune. Good thing the block is strong.

Exactly. Taking it out and appart was easy. No untorquing (sp?) specs involved That is why I bought rods and sleeved it. Gotta do it right.

When I had the motor out it took about 2 days (4 hours a piece) to rip it all apart. Some of that time was due to needing a External torx that I didnt have. Didnt have a car to go buy the damn part either. haha

Now slow and steady wins the race for the putting it back together.

The guy that did the block works for this company that does a **** load of NHRA cars. I saw a 250 CI 4 cylinder putting like 500HP down n/a. And when I picked the block up there were 4 RWD Comp and SS class Cobalts. They were sweet.

Oh and the guy I bought the drilled oil pan, oil lines, and water lines for the turbo fianlly sent the parts! Should be here wednesday or thursday. That means I almost have all the parts for the turbo getting slapped on.

Exactly, that is why I was not on his ass. If I did need the stuff I would have been going crazy 2 weeks after ordered.

I cant wait to feel the difference in power with the cam, head job, and TB.
