He only wants 4500 for it! Was asking 5500.. Crazy

 

Big thanks to fedex for busting the hell out of my Rinse Free Wash. Apparently they tore the box to hell then punctured the gallon jug so the double bagged the jug with their sacks reboxed it and dellivered it.

I knew it was leaking before i picked the box up. I could smell it. Hopefully Chemical Guys will take care of it

 

Amazing the effort they will go to. You should have just rejected it.

 

Manifolds look good. Man I hate just staring at parts, I want to get them on ASAP!

 

Darn Ecoboosts!

 

Small world, the happened only an hour or so north of my Dad's place.

The Eco's sure are deceivingly quick, lol!

 

lots of rain today too

 

They were calling for heavy rain here as well this afternoon but nothing came of it in our part of town -- just as well as I was afraid it would wash away all the fertilizer and weed killer I just put on the lawn!

The forecast for the rest of the week looks gorgeous -- if work isn't too busy I might try and take W-F off and play with cars.....

 

Washed the truck today and the paint feels like sand paper. I need to get some time figured out to get the paint taken care of. Pretty embarrassed with it's current state. Sway bar is back on with the summer 20's. Handles completely different.

 

Mine needs it too. Think im going on close to 2 months with it not being washed. Still going to be a while with all the pollen around.

But decided to wash the cavalier since it hasnt been washed since december. I had clear coat flying everywhere when i was spraying it down . Maybe i should call Chevrolet and complain about the paint quality on a 13 year old car and see if they will repaint it.

 

On a Cavalier that would be referred to as "patina".....

 

Mine actually seems cleaner after all the heavy rain. Washed all the pollen and bird poop off of it

 

Hate to see it in another year!

 

Next little goodie for the truck. 170 T Stat. Shes getting pretty warm at 6200 rpm in 3rd at 105 mph




It should help, were going for high 12s in the quarter this summer and mike seems to think its very possible with the Tune and Tstat. He's amazed everything he throws at it and the truck begs for more

Just have to work on the traction part

 

I'm doing the 170 Degree T-Stat when I do the Turbos. Still on the fence if I should just get a CAC and be done with it.

Curious what you think about the T-Stat as you see hotter temps than I do. I like the idea in theory and just hope it's not going to hurt in Winter.

I won't be hitting any tracks, but expect some pretty big gains when I bolt everything on.
