I have to say, i'm kinda regretting the hothckis springs now...but I still like them better then my TRDs. Maybe I should switch to S.Techs. My buddy has s.techs and mine were lower then his....h.techs are not low enough.
dtox...tune ran me $300.

^^ hey how's your dyno? hehe went cruising last night i did kept up with s2k and z.. since i cant get a wideband reading right now, i put my richer map on and set my truboost duty cycle to 10 so i wouldnt boost too much.. it was so tempting to go higher haha

i looked at my ic pipe thats dented and its dented a decent ammount in but i dont think it will affect it too much..
i think there may be a small hole in the pipe though.. but my vac still reads fine at -20 to -21.. should i jsut slap some tape over it>??hahahahahaa

nice mang! i thought you were saying the following:
1. i was talking about tuning my car tonight.
2. you said "guess whats going out tonight, happy face"
3. i thought you were talking about my motor haha
4. i hated you.
5. realized you were talking about your parts.
6. didnt hate you anymore..
hahaha
so yeah how long does the jb weld take to dry.. cause im at work, get of at 4 and drop the car off at 5.. but the tuning doesnt get done till 8ish... is that enough time?

ok.. yeah the dent seems like it will hurt 1-10whp worth so if the tune gives me 290 or higher i will assume that i have 300 because i like the assume things.
hahaha ill get the quick dry one! thanks ace.

Gotta love that.... "because I like to assume things" ... ahhhh... is that like saying ignorance is bliss? lolInstead of having a full page on the thread about a dented pipe... why not just replace it? If I was hitting those kind of whp numbers I personally wouldnt want a damaged part on my car...but thats just me. :D

nah.. not too bad.. 500 flat rate with as many dyno pulls as need for tune with boost and afr readings..
i already have a tune on there so they are jsut going to
dyno pull, tweak
dyno pull, tweak
till my graph looks smooth..
im hoping for 290 to be honest.. even with the dented pipe..
and yeah its the only thing that sucks about hawaii..
