You are a madman! And in the immortal words of my best friends wife:

"Keep it straight"

Have fun and be safe dude. Sounds sickly insane

Congrads Rob! Glad that you finally got everything installed and working properly. Now the only thing left to do is purchase a bottle heater. Trust me when I say this is a must. You probably were only getting about 35-40hp from the run you did tonight with the 30 degree temps. When I installed my bottle heater my 75hp shot felt twice as strong as before I got my bottle heater.

Hey Rob, when you pulled your T/B off did it look clean inside?? no oil?? Just wonder how that PCV fix is working, installed mine a couple days ago.
Hard to tell if this oil is just the stuff thats was left
in the tube before the fix was put on, (or it's new ?)
but yes there was oil in there. I'm starting to look at this differantly.




Since the new PCV on the Drivers Side "works opposite" and only allows flow into the Motor, and not back up the tube. That would mean this oil CAN NOT come from the Drivers Side ANYMORE??? Which would also mean that "there is in fact" reverse flow.
So what I'm now thinking is, the oil may actually be coming from behind the Throttle body, and being pushed out. There is clearly more oil on the back of the Throttle Body "and in the upper manifold" that there was in the FRONT of the Throttle Body. Tomorrow I'll put my breather back on and see if that corrects the problem ??? This gets stranger by the day, but we did know we have MORE THAN ONE, oil sucking problem.

Twist my arm Hank
Oh Ok, I'll get one,

I'm outta Mod's to do soon anyway

I truly know the tank was waaaaaay too cold tonight.
I actually thought that would be a good way to first test it, to make sure all was working (without the full power)
I remember putting the bottle warmer in the Chevelle,
it did make a world of differance. OK YOU CONVINCED ME
If it makes me faster, it's not a wan't, IT'S A NEED
HEHEHEHEHEHE

Rob,

Your my hero next to Joe (RTKILLA). You love the juice and want more, Joe just has a simple problem with his motor and rips it apart. I can't wait till I get my Zex kit. Im definitely going all out with it too! Bottle Heater, Purge... oh yeah baby! But here in FL, I don't really think ill need a Bottle Heater will I? Heheheh.

-Mike

Mike you got a BEAST already,
I love looking through your gallery, you got the whole package. From Custom interior, to kick *** Mod's and Performance.
I see you got the Nitrous itch (judging by some of those pictures)

I like this picture the best


Poor bastard got a look on his face like he's
posed for a picture in a pink dress or something

BTW
I hear, you should have a heater to keep it at the right temp.
but where you live, it's summer ALL THE TIME ?

Hahaha, that pic is great.... About it being summer pretty much all of the year, YEAH! It sucks... 90 degree's here, when its 30 degree's there. 100% humidity 24/7. This year it was a little different. It actually got into the 50's this year! CRAZY!

Rob-
that's great to hear. I like the purple wire looms.
You were concerned that the nitrous tune was going to hurt your performance off the gas, what do you think now? Think you can squeeze alittle more out of it?
Jes.

Funny you ask that Yes I was on the phone with Vinnie saying that last night. The best part about how I'm set up now is,
I can go to the track and have "tons of options",
DEPENDING HOW BIG MY ***** ARE THAT DAY

I can

Run the 4lb with juice on juice program
Run the 4lb with juice on my GAS program (More Timing + A/F)

Run 6lbs all Gas on the Gas Program

Or get BIGGER ***** "and"
Run the 6lbs with juice on juice program

Or get "BIGGEST *****" and
Run the 6lbs with juice on GAS program

The best part is, I can do any of the options in less than five minutes "at any giving time"

It's all about how big they are that day
HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE

4lb's all Gas on Gas program

almost forgot that one, it got me my first 12.8 on filter-chip-n-4lb pulley ""only"" NO OTHER MOD'S on F-1's
