  1. Sleeper? My Ranger. Who honestly expects a Ranger to be turbo'd?
  2. Sheif, that'd be perfect lol. Whats your screen name on there? There are guys on Turboford who have ran 20 to 20+ PSI on their IHI's for a considerable time. But, that boost level is getting out of its efficiency range and is starting to cook the air more than anything. From an IHI to the T3 you'll feel a little bit of lag, but, the top end power from it is leaps and bounds better than the IHI. It more than makes up for the lag difference. A perfect intercooler to find is one from an Isuzu box truck, either NPR or NQR. Make sure when you are looking for them you find the "large" ones. They fit perfectly behind the core support and in front of the radiator. Basically if the truck has/had A/C, the intercooler will sit where the A/C condensor sits/sat. It may require a little trimming of the metal around where the condensor sat, but 5 minutes with a zip saw and its done. It fits so perfect that it shouldn't require mounting tabs.
  3. I would think he got that rate. My mom works for Park National Bank, and "her" rate she is able to get is around 5%. No idea what the terms and conditions for said rate are though.
  4. It will definately be fun! Just like here at times, we can be a bit "sour" to the new guys on RPS if you show any sign of n00biness lol. But, if you can take the lumps at first, you'll be amazed at how helpful we can be.
  5. Mojoe, thanks for the input, I realize this is your "get away" from it all so I won't badger you with questions. Though sometime in the future I may PM you for some more personal advice. Thanks
  6. The basics I guess. Being directly out of college I'm starting with minimal down payment as I didn't own a house to begin with to sell, and put money down on the house I'm building now. From what I understand the 80/20 keeps the PMI away as the 20% is covered with the 80/20. Now, I think I understand that the second loan (the 20%) comes with a higher interest rate. I have used an online calculator to figure out my payments assuming some things, but I was fair. And going with the 80/20, over a full financed with PMI saves me about $100 a month. If you could shed some more light as to rights, wrongs, do's, don'ts that would be great. If you'd like more info, we could talk it over through PM's.
  7. Anyone look at an 80/20 loan for you first time home buyers?
  8. 83 - 86 Turbo Coupe's had the T3 as well. The autos came with a .48/.60 Garret, the 5 speed's came with a .63/.60 Garret. 87 - 88 Turbo Coupe's came with the IHI. I'm on Rangerpowersports as well, there is ALOT of information to be found in that place. If you have any questions, PM me and I can help you out with pretty much everything you'll need to know. As for tranny, since yours has the 2.3 in it already, the stock Ranger tranny will hold up for a stock to mild 2.3T. Assuming though the tranny is in good shape. If you can find all the "turbo specific" stuff, you can rebuild your stock 2.3 block up to turbo specs pretty easily, not as easily as doing a complete 2.3T swap, but it'll get the job done non the less.
  9. I keep my money in glass jars hidden around the house.
  10. Your both right. My point was they were making that metered reading look like it was shaking the world.... Lame.
  11. Thats the lamest Pimp My Ride, well, they're are all lame. On one of the audio forums I visit they were bashing it pretty good. They got a kick how 100dB was throwing a warning light, and how they were being "tossed" around by the absolutely huge bass LOL. 100dB is nothing, and in fact is Weak for that sub, my daily driver puts that to shame.
  12. I had the same bug a couple years ago, all I could manage to keep down was 7-up and grapes, and those had to come in very small quantities.
  13. So of course this sucks when you don't read the whole story. But like Earl noticed, she went off with another guy first, albiet by blackmail. She had the choice to not go in the first place, preventing all of following events that took place with her. Should she be punished for breaking their law? Of course, she still had the free will to simply not go. If you go to rob a bank, and in the process someone else comes in and robs it at the same time shooting and killing people, should you not go to jail too for initially robbing the bank?
  14. Not giving the court order, its obvious the Judge wants you to beat his ass
  15. We had a test almost identical to that in my 8th grade year, only we had to know the order of all the presidents, and the dates they were in office as well. Could I do it now again? HELL NO. Thats not the point though, it's a test of what you know at the time. No one practices this knowledge outside of schooling so it's not something us as adults are immediatly going to be able to produce an answer for. As well, some of those questions are severly subjectable, of which, a multitude of answers are possible and right.
  16. Delorean. Go back in time, find the guy trying to kill me before he wanted to kill me. Then kill him. Come back to the future and high five Micheal J. Fox for a killer car!!!
  17. More than likely a poser FMIC air intake
  18. True, they serve a different style of viewing is all.
  19. I'm not impressed, whats that cost the consumer??? You can build a DIY LCD HD projector that projects around 120" for ~$600. I'm currently half way done with mine
  20. So WTF happens if you do? Do you die? I like how they tell you only what they want you to know to peak your interest.
