dont' forget liltroublesm. seems like all he needs is a good tune, and he should be running strong.

Oh, and I called the other local shop today, and they said they have never TUNED a boosted tC, and arent' familiar my AEM, but they HAVE INSTALLED a Greddy kit on a tC and it ran good with the base map on the Greddy unit.
I'm not so concerned with the fact that they haven't tuned one as I am with that fact that, apperently, there is a tC rolling around vegas boosted with the Greddy kit!
forPinks? You out there?

i think phil and chris were gonna go the custom route, but then found it to be more trouble and even more expensive (idk how or why)

Dude you freakin kill me! Your "swamped" at work so you can't call a local guy about your car but you have time to post away on your thread on SL?

I didn't even consider that he might have meant when are we racing each other!
I just figured he wanted to know when we were going to the track to get times, not to race each other!

That's what I meant. Want to see some times. Stock tires are going to do you know good though..

AMD: Hey, it's easy for me to post and still provide support to my users, but if I'm on the phone, I can't help my users. I should put that in the "addict" thread!

AEN: I noticed you said you may not go turbo AFTER I talked to you last night! Did I deter you? I hope not, because if there is anyone who should go custom, it's you, cause you got some connects. I bet they can get you some parts cheaper too, along with the fabrication work. All you really need to decide is what turbo to go with and what manifold to use. We can talk about it on saturday if you make it. But the reason why I dropped the custom idea is because i had a guy who was gonn hook me up with a turbo, mani and IC, but he flaked out.

rhythm: See, I knew what you meant, we're on the same page. olahalo is just super competitive, which is why he had to get the same turbo kit as me, the same gauge pod, the same wideband...his tC is even the same color as mine!
