I'm in a Chrysler 200 while my V sits parked... Gotta figure this fuel pump issue. Its gotta be a bad ground... I plan on replacing the whole electrical setup with an upgraded kit and seeing how that goes once I can get around to it. My hours have gone from having days free, to having barely a day on the weekend free.

I still need to try that ****. I've seen it on the shelves before but generally prefer whiskey over anything. What rum is it comparable to?

I've got some Kokanee and clam in my bucket.

What do you poor suckers, that get winter, drive in the snow?

My winter beater is a Chev Cruze with the super duper gutless 1.4L turbo. She's an absolute dog but gets decent mileage for a commuter.

98 Ford Escort is my DD, the Fox is approaching launch time! I drove my last Mustang in the winter, too, as long as no snow. The 'scort gets great MPG and since I've had a few races with friends' slow cars that have been interesting to say the least Low RPMs = slower than you can imagine.

It's a spiced rum like captain but far better and a little cheaper too. I prefer some jack Daniels when I'm looking for whiskey. Tequila is the only type where I by the good stuff. Don Julio anejo straight is my jam.

Ford Fiesta bitches. It's one tough son of a bitch. I've been relentlessly beating the dog **** out of it for 48k miles.

Haha, my first car was an 86 Escort 1.9L with a 4 speed. I beat the **** outta that car everywhere I went.

I think my cruze has more jam than that escort did....barely.

Bored... thought I would post a couple pics... Got my 72lb injectors, and 127mm JLT intake installed yesterday. Base tune in the car, and will be getting retuned on the dyno this Saturday at a car show/ Dyno day at my shop. Hoping for a few more rwhp if we can throw some more timing at it. Had it safe last time due to factory MAF setup pegging the meter, and stock injectors. Made 670/671 sae... I'll be happy if it makes the same power... but would be nice to hit 700sae with it.

Kraken is more spendy here than the Captain. Spiced rum rocks!

Nice! That air filter is uber white. lol

With cooler weather, there is no way you will put down a lower number on the rollers.

What upper pulley is on there?

VMP 2.4.. running 18psi with it. OEM lower pulley still.. Next round of power mods will be 10% OD lower, and long tube headers. Hopefully will see near mid 700's with it.

So you finally ran without the blower. lol

J/K, I always run with at least 1/2 a tank. Sunday will be a better day.

I've got the 2.385 BPS upper. Going to a 10% lower + 2.5 upper in the spring.

Unless VMP pulls some magic out of their *** and makes the TVS better than it is now somehow.

I am fine with the TVS as it is now... it will support all the power I want with the stock bottom end. I have considered sending it off for Sylvain to port @ BPS. Still not sure if I want to go that route yet or not.
