I spoke with Travis and Jeremy and nothing is solid but they were thinking in a few weeks. My headers are getting coating this week and Mike should have them in LA by the 8/7. If this is the case I'll be in LA the following week (depending on my workload 50/50) to have the headers installed.

I thought LET planned on helping you out? Did they flake or did you decide to go with a different tuner?

It takes two weeks to coat them? Wish they could be done sooner and go up next week so you can make to the Pre Famosa TnT.

It's funny the last couple Governors from IL have been proven to be crooked, the President is from there and is shady, wait I forgot what my point was.

Where is LET located at can't you just go to there shop Jerry and demand they fix what you already paid for? If not just get a refund and go PC or Renntech. IMHO Hell if you are in a giving mood and like throwing money away for no service I'll take some cash right now!

Damn, that's mean...haha.

The coating for the headers take about week and after he gets them back they need to be packaged and shipped.

What's mean?

So another road trip? I should take mine to have the front lip, deck lid, and diffuser put on but at the same time that's a set of CCW/MT so it's a tough choice.

A road trip is definitely coming up, but when I don't know. The demand at work for next month is huge, highest month on the books for the past 14 months . I'm glad to see things starting to pick back up again. I will try my best for the Aug. 13-14 and hopefully it happens .

Wasn't my point, point was he paid for it and he should be priority over new costumers and it sounds like they have yet to fix their product that he already paid for. I know Jerry doesn't care to have his money wasted and he seems like a nice guy, I am just calling it bs that LET is taking their time in responding or not going above and beyond like a company should to fix it. So I think he should get his money back instead of wasting it on them and go with Renntech or PC. I want him out there come the 7th running strong and having fun, not worried about why his car is having issues. I should proof read these it always sounds the right way in my head haha

Hmmm I'll have to drive the obsidian down for you so you can keep your job!

I'm just giving you a hard time because you went to Sac without me ...j/k.

Jerry, are you showing up for sure or what? You wrote in parenthesis (tentative).

I think we should lower you tire pressure and data log a few runs, what do you think? I honestly believe data logging will tell the story, at least lets hope. Hope to see you there.

I say go to SonicMS or somewhere and get the Renntech tune or PC tune and see how it runs. If it's better get your money back from LET or if it's the same then the car is having an issue. Maybe one of the mods wasn't installed correctly, it happens people have bad days. PC and Renntech have a full refund right?

How's that for a burn out A$$? If you look in front of the car apparently I was there before but I don't remb...deja vu?

Oh and Juicy Juice the glove doesn't fit you must acquit, Rick, Lisa, Jerry, Bill, all you other E55s, C32s and CLS's I was trapping 113mph at Fontana last week in 105 degree weather. Last night at Sac I ran 119-120mph and gained .4 seconds. My tires were not gripping so I could have done better but I don't have DR's yet. Can't find 18x9 kosei's they only have 18x8s and I'm not sure if a 245 in the rear will grip as well as a 255 or 265 would. Any thoughts on that? I know thinner tires can run faster but will it be too thin to grip with 500lbs of torque to the wheels or more? I wonder if you guys can make up more mph's or tents off your time when you come up here.

Chris from Floored Fab is making them for me. They are being made out of mild steel and will be coated inside and out. Chiromikey has been running this setup for a while now and it's working great. I feel this set is proven to make power and Chris gave me a killer price, I couldn't pass it up. Chris has been known to do excellent work and I'm sure I'll be making more power with a new custom tune. I'll be having it dyno tuned very soon and this time no posted numbers.... I'm tired of explaining my numbers to all the skeptics. I'll let the track numbers do the talking from here on out. . Of course I'll have to tell my few forum buddies along with Team AMG.
