LOL its about time we get it fixed. Also I asked Vince more about your next tune.

Rob auto-x on a road course is def alot of fun. But just like others have said a lil more pricey. Finish off the stage 1 and get to launching and shifting the car at the right spots and we'll get the auto x mods going.

I ran a 70/30 and the car gained incredible top end in high gears due to less heat soak. Then some debris clogged the nozzle and well now I have low compression in all cylinders. no good.

But hey I look on the bright side I would not have started my twincharge build buying if it was not for that.

yeah, the radiator deal will be adressed this weekend and shall not haunt me any more! So now I'll have replaced the pcm with a malibu, a radiator from a tc balt, a trunk lid from a G5, and an LS4 tb! Loving the interchangable things!
Havn't run meth yet, after the radiator is replaced, I will be making all that magic happen!
I guess brownbandit dissapeared, I have not heard from him or how well his car is doing.

I would love to gain the top end power you speak of! Would be nice to see if my car breaks 300 whp on 60's, 2.5" pulley, meth, and a retune to take care of all this chemical supercharging!

Random BS in the BS thread...
Driving to work today I got behind a Ferrari. I have no clue exactly what it was, but it looked like an 80's maybe early 90's ferrari and I swear it said either Protece or Proteco or something on it. Huge rear tires, dual exhaust etc. Anybody know what it might have been?
Also, pulled up right next to a rather nice Dodge Coronet right after.

Thoughts?

Oh, since it's time for a registration renewal, I think it's time for a new personalized plate. Any good ideas for a personalized plate? Anyone?

Well, I finished installing my replacement radiator, now just watching my temps and making adjustments to the coolant if need be. Havnt really gotten on the gas as Im just observing my temps. Now I can move on to my exhaust leak that is on the the header's primary collector. I need to get me a wideband to monitor my afr's. Then we get the meth lab on wheels!!!
