Default What a week Ive had!!

First for my DOWN! My cousin took his car to CRE ? or Cheladyn Racing Enterprise ? Well that guy Joe has had my cousins COBRA for 8 weeks getting a S/C, front mount IC, tubular K member, tubular control arms, Lt headers, and a gear swap. Well its been in his shop for over 8 weeks! and he has had all parts for the car for 6 weeks and today we will be picking it up AS IS cause enough is enough! STILL NOT READY!!

Were gonna be taking it to where will be doing the rest of the damn install and his brother will be doing the TUNING these guys are a class act, and so is the shop!!

So for my UP last night we picked up my other cousins 300 SRT8 from after a procharger install some guages and it only took them 2 business days! The results were 501hp and 450lbs TQ on 6psi!

For my LOW, I have a damn MISfire on my car, this sunday I felt it for the first time and it started popping lightly under load and feling like it was on 7 cyl. I took the spark plugs OUT and all looked awesome exept for #5 it was covered in soot! so I put new Tr6's and still had the problem, I changed the coils from my bro's truck and it wasnt the coil, same problem. This morning I changed the wires and we'll see in a lil bit if it was the wire. If its not, then my injector is leaking!


End of Rant!

Could be worse man....

Swap injectors from a couple cylinders, see if it does the same thing with a different injector.

My friend just dropped off his car at CRE yesterday for a turbo build. They said they'd have it done in like 2 days...we'll see about that.

No he bought some wheels and tires from Dave, a family friend that had the red blown 98 cobra. But be warned this moron didn't even know of the IAC needed to be connected!!! Then he leaves vacuum lines unplugged, then get this! He left the crank bolt loose!! Thank god we trailered it to Mr Norms garage which is where we and your friend should go and have Tim Barth tune and build his car!
Last thing before I forget, **** for brains wanted to charge 20 hrs! For an front mount intercooler install! Nothing good for me to say about CRE !
