Have you had the ecu/Tcu tuned at all ? I had modern muscle do a tune on my Saturn aura xr (haha) I know. Had mild bolt ons and to the wheels was getting around 240hp. I ran a 14.01 at Byron pretty quick for a family sedan. Modern muscle has done some bad ass F bodies and new body gto's.

no tune yet. the 'speed shop' where i had the headers, exhaust, and trans installed did a suck ass job and im glad i didnt have them do anything more than bolt that stuff on wrong... guys at carmax would have done it better, and yes i could have done it myself but im lazy in my old age and like i said i hate to work on the damn thing.

i will consider modernmuscle for this summer. would love a dyno tune...

Well looks beefier than the bulldog. I like the split shell instead of three parts like the bulldog. Not so sure about the cast aluminum though. I like that it can be rebuilt. Do like it has no controller so u can use a heyok, etc instead.

sorry to hear that man... it does suck.

When I first moved to Chicago I interviewed with Optimus.
My work was crap and they basically shamed me for even bothering them... and then the interviewer spilled his Coke on me!

Ouch that's bad. This wasn't quite that bad. I just had to on the spot design on a cramped whiteboard a task management system that scales without issue, and on top do pseudo code for it. Lol. Ok what the **** ever.

I just looked.. It's not for a while but, we should plan on doing this though. February 7th-9th.. Thats Friday-Sunday.. Whichever day works best for us all. 7:30pm

Harlem Globetrotters are coming soon.. Might have to check that out. Haha

Trey won tickets to an 87.7 concert last night.. Thats where I learned about the upcoming events. Headliners were 30 seconds to mars & queens of the stoneage. I got an invite an hour before the show started. Made for a less than ordinary wednesday night.

DAMN! She sold it 2 weeks ago.

I told her it was ok (becasue she felt bad) and that the 36' Ford is the one I really wanted.
And then, she told me she knew who had it and that the engine block was cracked.

I got all geeked up thinking I could get it back...

But, it's apparently in California at a Ford museum.
