True...true. Ya, me and Jamie have a couple spots we use around here..pretty flat, consistant, and def frowned upon by the RI state troopers.

Either way it will be a bit before I put whatever else on I have by then. Plus I'm also in the process of getting my drivers seat warrantied..so I have to "behave" for now.

The deal TTP gave me on the exhaust, wideband, and tactrix cable, no way I could have passed it up right now.
Doing a 100% stock baseline pull at ESP would be the smartest thing you could do before Turco and I REALLY dive into unlocking the power out of that slow sled. Plus it would be good data for any local X owners who modded their cars and got dyno'd at ESP, so now they can really see the gains. Turco is supposed to be coming down this Sunday (right?) so maybe that'll be the motivation I need to start getting back in gear with all of this stuff. I've been in a winter funk this year and it's killing my motivation.

Touche. I tend to forget the things they did right on the IX'x.

True..true. I guess we will see what time/money brings. You know itchy I tend to get. Especially when parts are just laying around my apartment.

But ya, you need to get out of the funk. But given winter, I can't say I blame ya. If it's any motivation, TTP managed to get 344 to the wheels on their dyno, on a stock X, with JUST the Megan tbe. And I already got more than that coming in/laying around. $hit, if I had the money, I would splurge for the O2 "while in there".

And yes, I do like the yellow. Something about it always attracted me. Then again I used to own an orange 1g .

i think the get together was going to be at the chicken bone according to mr tim. chris and cait were all ready to come and then the 'get together' committee decided to change it. luckily, i had an awesome get together earlier that day involving blowing stuff up.

when i talked to tim last week, he specifically wanted chicken bone. check the history, noob.

just because you are a moderator doesn't give you special powers to control where the meets are. i proposed a time and place. people were welcome to come and did. if you wanted to have a competing meet on the same evening at a different venue, that is your prerogative.

if i want mexican food, i can walk 1/2 mile into the ghetto and get real mexican food.
