Well had some fun over the weekend. I went spiraling down the path that @Realgib3 posted up in his build thread and trying to gain some knowledge in all the links he posted, that references even more links when you start digging into them. No doubt it's going to take me at least a month to read...

I did multiple pulls like this....lol. The PMM is probably a bit worse to have loose though than the RMM. Both are bad but I'm glad neither of us ran into serious issues!

THANK GOD....haha it's all good :). Back to my car, the last week or so I had been noticing some weird noises when I shut off the car like things were rattling around. I finally got some time today to take a look at it. For one I put my hand on the engine and gave it a few solid pushes. Sure...

Makes me sad that I live so far away because they welcomed me with open arms when I was up visiting. Brings a tear to my eye that I don't have friends like that down in Cinci At least it was done in the name of science haha

Yeah I can't completely speak for how Mark learned but as far as I know they have done extensive testing on what works and what doesn't work. Pretty sure he's gone through a couple of ZZB's on personal cars while testing things out. There's a group of guys up in Cleveland that pretty much live...

He's got plenty of his theory about tuning on the "other" site, I've stalked his profile and starting going through all the threads he's posted in. Is that weird? Hahah. You're good though, I'd be interested in reading responses in whatever thread is created.

Well my stock block is bulletproof (joke) :) hehe. My 6th port also brings down my BATS, which helps for cooling everything. I was actually surprised by how much my BATS dropped when I first got it installed. I just pulled up a couple of logs and my BATS started out at 100 and dropped down to...

I love boost season :)

That's great info man, thank you, that helps a lot. I'm sure I'll pm you at some point when I buy some more stuff for this side project. Side note, I adjusted my stock shifter last night when I got home from work and drove around today. I think that's the reason I've been missing shifts at the...

Awesome thank you for the advice! Yeah I bought a dust mask just for the fumes of the epoxy + hardener, which helped but it didn't completely block out the smell. I'll see about getting a respirator when I get more time and money to buy more supplies. Where do you get your stuff and what method...

Just a straight wet layup. I've read about vacuum bagging to help with getting rid of imperfections but I didn't want to commit to buying the materials yet. Do you have experience with vacuuming bagging?

Bump, I can't say I didn't see this coming. I would like to add that I'm probably one of the people he referenced to as "lying". If I was the only displeased customer then he would still be in business and if one person makes you or breaks you then you're doing it wrong.

Well I did some experimenting yesterday. First time ever messing with carbon fiber. It was pretty cool, especially the part when the pot life expired of the epoxy and it got really hot then started steaming. I thought it was a good learning experience, I still need to sand the samples down which...

Haha well I figured she's put up with me buying all this stuff for my car which essentially put off me buying a ring earlier this, I thought she deserved it for being so patient with me and my car (other girlfriend).

I have done none of the above haha (oops). I do want to do a compression test, I just haven't had the time to do it. The car is putting down around mid 400s whp and mid 300s for torque right now. I should probably do that before asking my tuna to turn it up more. As you can see I live life on...

Got my car back and extremely pleased with the results! The hatch actually looks better than the rest of my car haha.

I know I was just looking at what you posted today and figured I'd throw my numbers up since they were similar haha. On my 50/50 mix I'm targeting a 12.0 AFR. I'd like to at some point push the stock block some more. As long as my logs keep looking solid then Mark said he's good to push it some...

Small update, I get the car back from the body shop tomorrow from getting the hatch repaired. It was supposed to be today but they said there was one small thing left to do that I asked them to look at (not related to the accident but from the previous owner). I went by the body shop a couple of...

Dat flat torque line tho ;)

When I grow up I wanna be just like you with all your knowledge :D
