is Bruce from TTM alive?

After reading the above post I figured it out!
It must have been the ghost of Bruce.
At 6' plus he has to be 200 pounds and that's good for at least 2 tenths.
Once he reappears in human form it will all be posted I'm sure.

Bruce is the man! No wonder he has not been answering calls! He was more busy then a fat santa in the mall at Christmas.

A name that is missing from this thread: LOWPROFILE!!!

Amazing car, and a gracious guy to let Bruce test out his handy work. Great job Brendan!!

Although the question was asked: Why the haters?... I have not seen that here. This thread has been very congratulatory to Bruce the builder and pilot. For good reason! Props should go to Jeremy for another solid (and very fast) tune.

I am excited because this effort shows progress in making our cars go faster, and in a safe way. Products like the fuel rail, TB kits, headers. Without these vendors (and independent R&D guys) developing solid products for a very limited platform, we would not be near these times.

One thing I think people don’t understand: Vendor / Tuner support does not need to be exclusive.. We have some great supporting vendors here, and all of them deserve a big pat on the back. Especially the burn out king: Bruce!!


Now, before we all start sucking each others d$cks, lets see a slip and a video!!!!

Seems to me that the seach fuction on this forum is less than optimized; however, the seach for "Smooth as Silk" did return the thread I was looking for, about 20 lines down.. WTF??

LOW PROFILE's mods are covered to some extent here:

Wow, congratulations to Lowprofile! Must have been that cracked intercooler . Hopefully Bruce will help more of us out with that upgrade since given the results, it seems now confirmed to be the achilles heel of the 55k.

10.79 What? it can't be, he must have had a bad intercooler pump or something either that or the driver doesn't know how to drive
