Yeah, mostly just using a public forum to vent in the ridiculous hopes that someone who actually cares (and no one does) reads what I have written and makes an effort to change.

It's kinda like Facebook in that way. Except I don't have to pretend to be friends with any of you

Anyone have a good emissions place near SLC. The place I went to for the last 4 years is under new management and just failed me.

What did you fail, OBD or the visual..If you failed OBD there is a way around it if you're still on the factory ECU.

Don't feel like you need to be humble, you are at least out there COMPETING on an actual race track! Just keep pushing forward. You have actually built and paid for your own cars and track time, there is a lot to be said for that on its own. The fact you have had a few major setbacks and didn't completely give up shows integrity.

Take forum posts with a grain of salt. I've never heard anyone that has been in an actual RACE ever say it was boring. I guess doing lap after lap of non timed uncompetitive driving might start to seem pointless, especially when someone else is paying the bills. When you pay for your own seat time and track toys, you seem to appreciate them more. And when you start actually competing with other drivers your efforts are far more rewarding.

The one bit of good news I can share is UT_EVO wont be posting about instructing for the PDX events going forward. This should dramatically reduce the size of his posts.

Does Invidia use the same Flange as stock for the test pipe? If so swap a stocker in place for the test, probably only take 10 min to make the change.

Is anybody here running an accessport? If so are you hitting the target boost at this altitude? I'm only getting about 1.3~ and then tapering off to about 1.1-1.0. Ice reloaded the stage 2 high altitude map, and nothing
's changed.

Are you running the appropriate restrictor pill?

Do the bolt holes line up, if so it will work.
