Sorry I never replied to your text... makes sense now lol. I was on the phone when you texted me and forgot to text you back.

Bobby and Danny and I had a good day. Installed a downpipe on Bobby's car, put an intake on Danny's Beast Truck. and I washed my car.

Went and ate some Smashburger! good ****! Then Bobby and I got a couple mini races..

Figured out that I can't smash on my car because of the trans. Something still aint exactly right with it... Just doesn't want to shift quick enough. It seems to be fine if I gradually get into it though.
Just doesn't make sense as to why I can't get on it full throttle from cruising... aggravating.

3" pulley, 2.25" exhaust and 2.5" catless downpipe...I trapped 98mph the last time I was at the track so I'm hoping the header will take me to 100mph

Random BS of the day:

I ordered pistons for Travis's car on 03/16/12 and still have not got them. Been emailing OTTP asking when I will get the parts so I can give Travis a completion date and getting no response. This is pissing me off, the pistons are holding everything up! I could have had the car up and running again by now if I wasnt waiting for the pistons!

I'm trying to think of something for cams,since 2007 has the intake cam sensor,I wonder if I can replace just the exhaust cam to help reduce valve overlap so I'm not just blowing boost through the cylinders and out of the exhaust.

Speaking of new ****, I was debating e85 route or meth and decided meth , simply because traveling doesn't allow e85 Everywhere. Now I have been looking for a good meth kit and decided on Either Chevrolet Water Injection : Water Methanol Injection : DevilsOwn Alcohol Injection - DevilsOwn Injection or AEM Water/Methanol Systems for Gasoline Engines - Water/Meth Kits - Wideband O2 UEGO, Water/Methanol, Stand Alone Engine Management, Piggyback F/IC, Tru Boost Controller, Gauges, Automotive Performance Electronics . Any thoughts ?

I agree e85 is a overall superior choice.. Just not possible for traveling outside of the state reliably. Meth gives me that ability and still increases hp and lowers temps.

Haven't tried and using a gen1 head would be going backwards for performance.Gen2 heads flow more and I have a decent port job on it as well.

I might show up at the track tomorrow just to see what I can do with the trans... A little worried after last night. I don't think I'll be able to smash on it, but I'd like to see what I can do on 15PSI and low timing.

Yup yup! I may have to go steal Bahls' helmet from his house.


Anyone want to cruise around and look for Kegs?
