I have to explain to them how to use all the shit I put in their house and tell them why their Indian bootleg DVDs wont work in their $30k theatre because I tossed the shitty DVD player and put in a blu-ray. On top of that they got a new Dish Network box and it wasnt activated. They insisted I stay there as they call to make sure it works, even though the preview channel wasnt coming in. Apparently the guy that dropped the box off was supposed to install it, he didnt, I did, and Dish Network says I’m not allowed to, so they wouldn’t actiuvate the box. A complete clusterfuck to say the least. I want to kill someone. or drink beer… oh, thats right, I have beer. Hang on… Yep, beer helped. Semen tomorrow.

well for once, your day sucked more then mine.

i just had to tell some people that in order for gps to work you have to put in an address.

IDK… I’d like to do a DCR 2.6 Stroker/Head/Cam Package and GT3582R (.63 A/R) at the same time… it’s big bucks though… Until I have enough money to build the car to full potential… its not gonna change… So probably never. It’s like $8k in parts that I can’t afford right now, not to mention the traction mods, input shaft, shift selector, and god knows what else I’ll need to put 700hp to the ground… but who knows…

Although the stock turbo has started to get a little shaft play… if it craps out, probably a cheap 50 trim, RC 750s, and a tune. Thats more likely.

If your compression is OK, I wouldn’t bother… There are guys running 50 trims at 500+ hp on stock bottom ends. I know a guy that makes 525whp since 16k miles… it’s got 88k now, it’s a daily, and gets driven hard regularly.

A local kid just wrecked his SRT-4… I’m trying to buy the car back for the drivetrain.

compression is ok. its just time. you can tell its going. the head is a must. cams are worn bad and im sure the gasket is shit. if im taking it off to change that its getting a new head. there have been a few infinate boost incidents that make me worry about the motor. besides that i run 27psi daily. there isnt a day that it dosent see full boost. good luck with your times at the track. keep it together.

Why have I never seen you around or heard about your car? I’ve been to the track every Wednesday and all I see is stock or lightly modded SRT’s that can’t even run the stock 13.8 they are supposed to do… lol

He tried going to Moon twice… The first time he melted his throttle cable by lake george and was stranded on the way up. The second time he went, his steering wheel fell off, resulting in a minor accident and 6 hours of being eaten alive by ill-tempered radioactive horseflies from satans asshole.

Balance shafts removed tonight, just in time too… the chain was stretched bad. It was going to snap in the very near future. The car has an amazing throttle response compared to having them in the car. I’m happy with it. Best free mod I’ve done so far (minus the S2 PCM).
