gotcha. i've been thinking about stripping the interior on my 951. the suspension is pretty dialled, along with some other big money maintenance items. i have a 3 inch exhaust that i want to install, turbo back.

Rick V 01-01-2010 04:01 AM

One of the things I would like to do is retard the exhaust cam 4deg, advance the intake cam 2 deg, convert the AFM to a MAF along with a multi band controller and a wide band 02 sensor to make up for the increased fuel need it will have. Those 16 valve engines suck for low end so I would like to make this one really suck and have insane wallop above 4k.

cool stuff. you are talking $$$. how do you delete the sunroof?

Rick V 01-01-2010 04:28 AM

Remove that heavy panel and all the associated hardware, and sheet metal it closed. That involves some seriously slow welding, but will save 50lbs or so. I'll email ya the link to the controller for the maf conversion I want to use.

Rick V 01-01-2010 05:25 AM

Hangover? What hangover? I'm wide awake at 7am... :(


Rick you can always pull up stakes and come to OK. I'm sure you could get a job around here no problemo.... How are ya on diesel trucks?

Rick V 01-01-2010 05:36 AM

Morning sid. wait, let me try that again a little louder. MORNING SID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
Diesel, I am fair but if I do get out of state I am going to try and get back to what I really know. BMW, Mercedes, Porsche. Regular cars suck

porsche4life 01-01-2010 05:37 AM

Seriously man... Not much of a hangover...


And if you wanna specialize in OK you will have to work in OKC or Tulsa... Both aren't bad cities... But not as cool as living out in the sticks where I'm from.

Rick V 01-01-2010 05:42 AM

OK isn't on my radar, don't worry you are safe too. :)

porsche4life 01-01-2010 05:45 AM

Whats wrong with OK Rick? I mean other than the weather...

Rick V 01-01-2010 05:48 AM

Well noting wrong with it, just never spiked my interest. Nothing personal. I want to bee warm too. I have arthritis

porsche4life 01-01-2010 05:51 AM

Ahh.... Well the Southern part of NM is nice... Can't imagine there are many German cars there though.... Probably lots of newer stuff up around Albuquerque. Its a nice town. Or seemed like it when I was there.

Rick V 01-01-2010 05:51 AM

Okay off to do some electrical work

porsche4life 01-01-2010 05:54 AM

Ok.... I'll be here when you get back.... I gots to go home for a big family shindig at lunch.... but thats a few hours out...

Strip club was tits.
Bahzinga!

Full nude so no bar (per state laws) so I was sober until relatively early into the new year. Unfortunately the club seemed short handed tonight compared to saturday nights and it wasn't the A team playing the field.... but I did spend a lot of quality time with Lexi.

I woke up just now on my couch to myself spilling a beer on... myself. Way to start 2010.





I was conservative with my spending last night so I'm considering a second trip tomorrow night just for kicks. I didn't buy anyone christmas gifts this year considering I have no close relatives anymore and no real friends, so I'm going to burn that money getting tits & whatnot rubbed in my face.

New Years Resolution is to not continue this behaviour for too much longer....

porsche4life 01-01-2010 06:25 AM

Hmm.... That sounds like fun Schumi... Well not the beer... the tatas....

Rick V 01-01-2010 07:09 AM

Happy New Year Schumi.
Okay Peggy now has a functioning amp gauge.
After rebuilding the PC board several times I just re wired the IC.

svandamme 01-01-2010 08:36 AM

Lol, making a 44S suck more for air :D

They are fun engines though, i loved mine , up in revs is where they are happiest...
low end torque is overrated for non daily drivers.

It's the wallop @ 4K that brings the true smile, that's what i'm aiming for with the 2.8

Rick V 01-01-2010 08:53 AM

Happy new year Stijn.
