It was good to actually talk to you guys this time around (Hooters meet was my first time out).... as for the lugs, who doesnt like swapping wheels and lugs between 2 cars on the side of Rt 41? Brandon (Code .3) and I will be talking soon about our dyno experiment... Anthony at TVT is helping me with fuel.

Oh and Jake: I/C is 837.54 (includes tax)
As for Andy: IAT is 14.26 (includes tax)

Ah, nice......I guess its making more sense now that Brandon was warming his hands next to our engines after a couple of runs on the dyno. He is used to the nice temps, and not the mess we call chicago....

Santa Barbara, gorgeous!!! Problem is, I'd get no work done out there and the C32 would have a ton of miles riding up and down PCH!!

Just wondering, do you guys sell 89 octane out there???
