    Best mod to date.

    I hardly ever use mine either, even though it's been hot as ballz here in GA. I usually have to put one can of R134 in it at the beginning of summer, but it lasts for the whole season. Not bad for a completely original system (minus the R134 retrofit).

    good news from energy suspension

    I didn't know about your thread either, CK, but i'm glad o hear about it. Energy suspension has very good prices for their kits, like $30 for a set of lower A-arm bushings, vs. $120 for some manufacturers.

    Police harrasment

    That's true- he didn't have to tell him anything. The cop could have asked him what he was doing there, and the kid could have said " I don't wish to explain my reasons to you". And like I said, that is begging for an escalation of the interaction, and you know it. Why? Is it because Cops...

    Yeah, these days, my motor is tired. Can't wait to throw the new motor/ driveline in.

    I think it was a 97 M3....

    Me? I was 260hp 2 yrs ago, and that was on just a 3 in. exhaust , IC setup and an AFM replacement, 9psi of boost. I didn't think it was so bad- like 75hp over stock at the flywheel. But still, it's obviously not enough.

    I think it was a 97 M3....

    My dyno was at 9psi as well, but these days, I have bad idle vacuum, and I suspect that i've got fairly low or uneven compression. How's the flying going? I'm still instructing, but supposed to go to a corporate interview this week(Kingairs and Beech jets)

    Police harrasment

    1. The kid WAS baiting the cop. I'm sure he turned that tape on as soon as he saw the police car. Is parking in an empty lot illeagal? no. Did he do it to lure the cop over? Yes. 2. The kid DOES have the right to keep his own counsel when questioned, and though this may create further...

    200MPH Supra?

    They time the car through two checkpoints, and in both directions, to eliminate wind effects. I dunno if they did that here, but that's how speed runs are normally monitored, so I'm not suprised that I don't see a radar gun.

    I think it was a 97 M3....

    Sorry in advance, but it's a pretty boring story. Wanted to get it off my chest because I didn't think it would walk me so bad... I had just turned left at an intersection, when I see this BMW pull out of a Waffle House, and gun it down the road in front of me. He was going well over the...

    Chrysler Crossfire

    You easily walk a 230ft-lb torque Crossfire in an NA? Very impressive.

    holy turbo lag batman!

    My problem was a blocked cat. It can be either gradual (from rich mixture/ burning of fuel in cat) or sudden(as in broken cat element) causing the blockage. I could only get to 8psi by 4500rpm. Replaced the cat and Bam! Instant spooling again. Let us know what you find.
