  1. Geesammy Austin has spoken get off your lazy ass and work. ....
  2. Ok how much is to much?? At what point does the low wages become the equivalent. Of slavery? Honest question.
  3. So Einstein 's estimated iq is 160... I find it comical you used him as a Example. Would you also have made fun of him for flunking out on basic mathematics? Also based on the generally accepted bell curve anything over 145 is the top .13% I'd really like to take the mensa test at some point, I doubt I'd score as high as before but I'm confident it would be above the 145 mark.
  4. Also how old are you? If your under 25 can't you get on your parents coverages
  5. It's not really doing much for me to be honest I get my insurance via work. This is not the plan I wanted. I wanted the truly socialized healthcare. You may want to dig a little bit into this though. Depending on your age your parents income comes into play when dealing with college assistance. Based on your hours posted I bet you qualify for subsidiary help.
  6. And you and I end up paying for it. I was under the impression from talking to the er admissions that unless it was life threatening they would not provide care with out basic info.
  7. No sir I do not. That being said the one tax credit is actually in advance and can be applied directly to your monthly payment.
  8. Again I understand the desire to not pay for deadbeats I think it's safe to say no one wants to pay for deadbeats. But at the same time you should not punish the hard working Americans who need a little help. If you work full time at Walmart or anywhere else that's near min wage you qualify for assistance . I for one do not believe anyone working full time is a deadbeat
  9. Yet i still score higher than 99.8 percent of the population. So while you stroke your ego by being a grammar king I'll be busy learning new programming languages and engineering solutions to complex problems.... If it makes you feel better to assume I'm intellectually deficient go right ahead. But my full time and part time jobs booth prove otherwise.
  10. Yes because god forbid we do what the rest of the industrialized first world countries .... Also I'd like to point out I pay more in taxes than a good chunk of cr. I have no house or kids to deduct and make a descent salary. So when I hear poor idiots bitching it just infuriates me. Mr killjoy since your apparently so smart please tell me a health care paradigm that works. Imho these our the options 1. The jack ass method. You get hurt you don't have insurance or Capitol or credit (care credit like dentist) you get sent away. 2. Universal coverage everyone has equal coverage. Again that's just my opiniom
  11. Just curious does the number you posted take into account the advanced tax credit ?
  12. So my coverage is better but that's not far from what I pay. When I looked up buying insurance myself when I tuned full time my premium for just me for mid level insurance was 270+. so this is better than before. I personally wanted universal coverage for all.
  13. I've got a feeling that EFILIVE will make a flex fuel conversion for this car like they did with the Cruze ecu. That being said, It will work on NA cars but I don't see boosted ones working out so well. The whole Duty Cycle calculation atm is completely wrong, Atleast for how most people are used to using said duty cycle. I hope that HPTuners adds a Injection Window Total % logging value. From what I seen the other night it wasn't there yet. What's going to be interesting is when we attempt to crank the fuel rail pressure up will it hold. I know from the logs I've got 15m held perfect with 0 waiver. But as you know on the FirstTTv6 car the MP was dropping during the pulls. This is why the BRZ's setup rocks. The best of both worlds!
  14. So we need a Regan car? Ontopic: I've noticed this also, It's a little different on this side of town but when i lived on the west side It was rare to see kids driving around. Its odd to me because I had a Moped @ 14 and rode it everywhere. A job at 16 and started on my temps process. As soon as I could have my license I had them. My parents forced me to learn to drive in a stick shift too.
  15. Water meth was my thought. Or a nitrous fuel nozzle setup. .. kinda shitty but might be a stop gap measure
  16. Yeah its funny because you only gave 5 ms of injection window. The c7 injectors are really only about the equivalent of 45ish lb hrs at 15m if my fuzzy math is right
  17. It is not a target gm uses narrow bands and to change the target you change a volt target
  18. I didn't mean the engine changed it . I mint that the stock calibration defined it as such. This is not a target it's a multiplier
  19. The other night we finally had the chance to strap down the 2014 Corvette Stingray for some base pulls and tuning. We believe that the car has a few more ponies on the table but we had some shitty gas. (KR on Stock tune). But even with that we were able to dial her in and make some more power and combat the KR. For those who care my thoughts on the new platform and tuning: 1. From what we seen the stock tune runs pretty rich ( in the high 11's) 2. The new tq management is picky 3. Stoich is now 14.1 vs 14.5 or 14.7 (We believe this i due to E10) 4. I expected since it was Di it would have been running way leaner. 5. VVT is here and its pretty cool 6. The new Displacement on demand atleast on the z51 can be disabled via the Magic Nob in the car. It only seems to use it when it's in Eco mode. 7. The interior quality is far higher than the previous vettes 8. Creature comforts are nice. Heated and cooled seats. Pandora on the radio 9. the tail lights don't look nearly as bad in person 10. Interior space seems smaller than the c6 11. Many things in the base calibration are set very similar to how tuners have been doing it for years. 12. Speed limiter appears to be at 199 13. The Injectors stock may be enough for a little boost but I don't know how far its going to go with out a HPFP Upgrade.
  20. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A27074-2005Feb15.html I realize this article is old but it's the first time I seen it. When I was reading it I thought to myself god damn that's me, When I want to spell something I don't see the word I hear it.... Then I try to figure out how to fuck to spell it. This is why many times I screw up the usage of the words "Their There They're" The only reason my post quality is higher now then it was back when I first joined CR is that Chrome tells me when I fuck up. So I can correct it..
  21. Ok it's still insane how far things have came
  22. I don't think so. I can't remember the name of the client atm. The car came from Meade in pieces. Nate designed a air to water intercooler setup for it but it didn't work for crap.
