  1. I'm in for sure. Also have two more will that will be buying spots.
  2. If it's "not practical" to drive your car 2 hours, it's probably not a real street car..... Jus Sayin.
  3. I will need both of them for the big dogs.... But in your case I will completely disconnect one of my charge pipes and still drag your ass down the 1320.
  4. This is going to make me go with bigger turbos sooner than I thought. :gabe:
  5. You need to measure AITs post intercooler, and actual boost (MAP not MAF calculated) If you are seeing enough raise in AITs during a long pull, that ignition timing is being lowered to reduce detonation.. you need a more efficient core. More efficient usually means larger. This is where logging actual boost comes into play, as you do not want to go so big that you experience a large pressure drop.
  6. Genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist. errrrrrrrrrr... wait. maybe not :gabe: In the case of someone having Signatures disabled and not already knowing, I run a car lot, and genuinely love my job. I have formal education in the form of a Computer Programming degree. I would venture to say though, the education that has helped me be successful has been the things I took it upon myself to learn. I read a lot online, do a lot free webinars, enroll in the occasional free online college coarse, and still pick up a real life book on occasion. You have probably heard the old saying, "Reading one hour per day in your chosen field will make you an international expert in 7 or more years." I am not sure that is true... but it will surely make you better, that is certain. Do something you think you will like or you think you will be a rockstar at. Either way, make sure it pays the bills. Even if it isn't your final career you can learn things or make connections that can help you later. My stint as a Series 7 and 66 Financial Advisor taught me things that I use daily now. (In the car business... who would have guessed that) Best of luck to you Paul. :thumbup:
  7. It has 2WD front rims and center caps, which is odd. 2005 you need access to the hubs so you can select Auto or Lock. I would imagine being an 05 the injectors and turbo have already had work. If so, if you do EGR delete and head studs, that 6.0 will be rock solid reliable. As far as cold starts, with this gen truck I have never had to plug one in. If it is really cold, I always let the glow plugs cycle more than once before actually starting. Nice truck :thumbup:

  9. Could you have added the same amount of timing on regular gas without inducing knock?
  10. http://i.imgur.com/nntwVzr.jpg
  11. 3rd pass off the trailer on a completely new build at that. 1st and 2nd passes were still in the 8s.
  12. This thread makes me happy In for Spring Track Day for sure
  13. Oh... and IF you can get your hands on some at a reasonable price, pick it up. If nothing else, to sell on gunbroker. http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=389301619 :eek2:
  14. Saw this on FB this morning and thought about putting a post up about it. Looks interesting, but I am still semi sceptical without seeing some independent data.

  17. I was trying to talk Jones into this. Sounds like a blast. I might make it this year.
  18. Congrats again bro. Thank you for the kind words. It was seriously my pleasure to put this deal together. Days like today make me love my job. :thumbup:
  19. If you wait for a deal, you should be able to get a good NightForce in that range. Last time I went to TVP and they had the 1000+ yard targets up, everyone hitting them was looking through Nightforce glass..... for what thats worth.
  20. I really like what they did with this car. But a sub 7 second ring time isn't gonna happen.
  21. Only JP could say the words Metro and racecar in the same sentence without getting laughed off the planet. GLWS buddy :thumbup:
  22. The only ways to get TRUE A or Z plan pricing is to be a DIRECT relative of a current Ford employee (FoMoCo not a dealership) or a Retiree. Both price structures are below invoice. D plan is for Dealership employees and families X plan is friends/family/supplier. ANYTHING else (G plan E plan) are made up sales gimmicks More info here: http://www.at.ford.com/news/cn/Pages/Clearing%20Up%20Confusion%20from%20A%20to%20X%20to%20Z.aspx
