Hahaha


Rick called me today and said the new cam sounds sweet and idles soo much better. I'm gonn amiss the lumpy shaking at a stoplight but I guess turbo spool sounds cooler anyway He was installing the Meth kit and I think that was the last of it. So now it is a matter of getting a street tune on it then hitting the dyno to check the AF on a wideband.

Ohh just some advice. Never assume guages are cheap just cause they are small. I bout the new Autometer Coblat guages because they are blue and would match my truck. Damn lil guages were $159/ea my cost! They retail for $199/ea for a friggin boost guage!

I feel ya.

I go to work everyday and have to park my beautiful Demon, and get into a damn Crown Victoria (CVPI). The car handles ok, but has a severe lack of power. If it werent for the pretty flashy lights the car would be a total drag.

Anyway, it wasn't nearly as bad when I had my LT-1 Caprice, at least the power was all there............Then my rookie drove it into a damn cow.


Getting that damn Crown Vic up to 100 seems like it takes forever, and getting it to stop.....well thats just down right scary, the little bastard floats terribly......

........Need truck for patrol car......

The 04 cvpi have a higher stall and there still slow.
My 03 z71 beats it 0-60.

Guys I have to take my truck off the road for winter up here wich can be 4-5 months, major withdrawl.
