  1. I’ll just keep making my own. Other than 22, I have not shot a factory load in years.

     

    :nod:

     

    I'm sitting on around 1k 9mm and components to load about 4k more.

     

    The trick to avoiding an ammo shortage, is to never be short on ammo in the first place :)

  2. in browser ad blocker plus run a pi-hole network wide ad blocker and very rarely do I see an ad no a days.

     

    ssstoooppppp im slowly working on making him move to full ubiquiti and dont need this right now :p

     

     

    David Tracy is pretty much the only one worth reading on jalopnik these days.

     

    Yes, dude needs his own site or youtube channel. He could quickly climb up the ranks and be on par with Mike Finnigans youtube channel.

  3. Sorry Aaron - didn't see your response. The S60R seems to be it's own animal (adjustable 4c suspension, different engine, interior, body bits) so I wouldn't be surprised if the rear-diff DEM is also different.

     

    Quick update: I ended up buying a DiCE cable from a China supplier, uOBDII.com or some shit like that. Ryan (unfunnyryan) here on CR was AWESOME in letting me use an old Lenovo laptop and setting it up. I thought I would need it for the DEM (with VIDA to communicate with the Volvo's systems) but just plugging in the DEM fixed the AWD system.

     

    However... since I already had the DiCE cable and laptop :ninja:

    I bought a Stage 2 tune from Hilton Tuning...and promptly discovered a few weaknesses on the car. The download of the tune and reflash was very easy. However, the boost was maaad inconsistent, and I found that an ignition coil died causing a cylinder misfire. Replaced that, and still had a P0101 MAF CEL. Pulled the MAF out and noticed flakes of an old leaf??? in the mesh. Cleaned it out and sprayed MAF cleaner and it seems much better...except that another ignition coil misfired. :lol: So I'm just replacing the last 3 out of 5 ignition coils I haven't yet replaced. This isn't unheard of, as 15 years and 114k miles sounds like the max life for these coil packs.

     

    Rob Hilton @ Hilton Tuning has been great. They legit just use FB Messenger to communicate with clients, and their tuning software downloaded on my laptop allows for data logging that he can track. While I'm waiting for ignition coils this week, Rob reminded me to gap the plugs to .028". Having someone communicate with the Volvo knowledge they have is huge.

     

    Looking forward to National Trail next Wednesday for T&T. :fuckyeah:

     

    If the ignition coils and cleaned MAF smooth everything out, next (last) performance mod will be to delete the catalytic converter. I paid for the "cat-delete" option with the tune to not trigger a CEL. The reduced backpressure supposedly improves turbo response and maximizes the power from the Stage 2 tune.

     

    If an ignition coil died suddenly or couldnt maintain load and ignite fuel that might explain that huge fucking pop turning from kenny/mccoy :D

     

    Also I think your power estimates are low. Stage 2 with no cat I'd guess 270-280hp and 340-350tq.

     

    edit: unless you're talking at the wheels, then probably pretty close.

  4. the ER-L is basically end of life at this point. UI trying to bake in new features has resulted in a lot of broken updates.

     

    Keep in mind - this thing launched in 2013? Imagine your smartphone back then, basically same hardware. It's what put ubiquiti on the map, like the OG iphone.

     

    Go big dick with ubiquiti and you will have an amazing time.

     

    Also fuck pfsense, go vyos

  5. What is it you are printing and what material? Depending on how the loads applied certain materials are better. Overall PLA+ is a very good material, very strong. My ender3 can print threads that hold up to VERY strong torquing.

     

    There is a newer material that is PLA with aluminum powder mixed in it. I'm not sure about its qualities overall.

  6. You have to enable hardware acceleration in the CLI to get the full performance out of Ubiquiti products. I agree its horseshit we have to do that as well, but I feel your pain. I have an Edge Router X. Probably going to put together a pfSense box or configure a Cisco router to take it's place, then I'm going to punt this piece of shit into the ocean.

    Edit: Look in to seeing if "netflow" is enabled too, which I read gets enabled by default when UNMS is connected to it or something. Apparently that will also cause hardware offloading to be disabled.

    As a ubiquiti whore...this.

     

    Otherwise I'd tell you to go bigger as the ER-L is aging. ER-4 or USG-PRO-4. I have the USG-PRO-4 right now and can push 970/970 during off hours w/ AT&T gigabit.

     

    Or Fortigate, which if I can get them to send me "demo" units I'll switch to them.

  7. Where would I put all the LEDs? Gotta add HP somewhere. The first (only) PC I built years ago has been opened zero times since. I have enough crap to tinker with. I don't want my PC to be one of those things. Hopefully..

     

    "Where would I put all the LEDs?"

     

    Ah, so you're married and don't have to present yourself as normal :)

     

    Jokes aside for what I'm about to post below.

     

    For reference, this is my current setup. I am planning a future far larger desk where the mini rack can be integrated and hidden within it. Having everything (minus current PC case on top which does fit laying down) in a rackmount and on rails formfactor is so convenient I don't believe I will ever go back.
