Random thoughts for the day

Yeehaw!!!  A little KR reminds you to stay on track

+7 KR at WOT would have left a bacon strip in my shorts for sure.

Hah, yeah it was around 103° out with boost temps in the 120's. Defently an oh **** moment.

Another example of how well these engines can protect themselves.

Around 0 degrees and E-45 ish is another example, LOL....

Running on the edge....all in the name of science of course.

Are you still running corn with the meth?

No corn for me. It's a 2 hr drive to restock my jugs and I just can't find the time to make the trip right now.

Hard to justify considering how quick I burn through it.

I am able to pull -6kr under heavy load before meth injection comes on so I'd say my fuel is potent enough for now. I thank ar9200 for my knock resistance.

Weird....my 13 only had a negative range of 5, and the 15 is -4

Mine goes all the way to -8 to +8.

Well WTH?

I wonder what the difference is?

Anybody else see that range on the KR gauge?

Could it be the formula I've used for my knock gauge?

Here is when I had -5kr

Do you have a screen shot of the pid from the manage extra pid section of torque?

2010 RCM non PP
K&N panel filter with aux hose
RX OCC with CSS
sp534 @ 30
unleashed tune 12.90@106

Even though the scale is set to -8 +8 I have still seen it reach these points.

Just checked mine. Max is set at 100,
min is set at 0. But I still see -4....

I was driving on the highway today on a grooved road under construction when a small rock just came under a big 18 wheeler and hit the bottom portion on my windshield about a inch away from the cowl cover,another thing to worry about. Z

 

[glock-coma]

Damn that sucks z.
Make sure it's a oem replacement windshield when it's replaced with sound screen laminate.
The place I went to tried to pull a fast one and gave me an oee (original equipment equivalent)
Made in China. It was like looking through a coke bottle. 

 

[SHOdded]

That's a nasty crack, Z, totally empathize!  Was that 18 wheeler equipped with mud flaps?

 

[slurppie]

ZSHO, I'll see your crack and raise you.

Wife took out a large bird on the way to Savannah a few weeks ago.

 

[wasinger3000]

So I did a little testing with the car today. Had it loaded up with around 450 lbs of gear.

Found out it won't build more than 5-6 psi on a wot downshift. No matter what gear it just won't do it.

1st and 2nd gear pull hard but 3rd and up are sluggish. Not sure why it would pull boost when there is no knock and meth is spraying.

Also my CM voltage is hovering around 13.7 with ac and cooled seats on. Seems lower than I'd like.

 

[ZSHO]

Thanks for all your inputs,actually SHOdded nailed in the head,those darn mud flaps blew that rock across the highway,stuff happens and just a little up set and apologize if i put it in the wrong section. Z

That's a complete random act of cruelty right there Z. Maybe a visit to the local rock crusher could make ya feel a bit better...lol

Wow, was it a teridactal? That's one huge bird (torpedo with wings). It had to threaten the undergarments with a "bacon strip"(<---stole that).

Aren't they supposed to be targeting airplanes?  Are they bringing the war to the ground?

Need a tank suit to protect our vehicles nowadays

dang it! I messed up when I bought the car and didn't notice a crack in the outer driver side tail lamp assembly. it allows moisture in and now it's all full of condensation. a new assembly is $700! looking on LKQ I can get one for $400... holy crapola!

 

[SHOdded]

I hope you are still under the 3/36 warrany?

 

[92BlackGT]

will they cover a cracked lens? it probably from some sort of impact

The wife said it was an eagle flying in the median which banked left right as she got up on it. It hit with enough force that occupants in the back seat were peppered with glass.

I hope no one was hurt during that incident slurppie,found out that only the middle section of the windshield is coated with sound screen and the edges are not,and usually a windshield is covered under warranty up to one year or 12k,found a descent discussion about the sound screen winsdshields on the f-150 thread.

[slurppie]

Interesting read on the Soundscreen windshield. I'm looking into having a product applied called "ClearPlex". The cost runs almost as much as a new windshield but supposedly comes with a warranty covering up to $2k.

 

[PokerMunkee]

Just emailed TFL (good youtube series) to have my SHO taped in their run what you brung!

Example:

Anyone in Colorado with a meth SHO?  That would make for a good video!

Clearplex's windshield product page is DOA ...

Here's the local shop that offers it.
http://www.allprowindowtinting.com

After speaking with the shop owner,  I was under the impression it was some new product.

I believe this is the stuff, http://www.clearplexusa.com/36-x-25-clearplex-roll-4-mil-75-square-feet/

Hell for that price I can buy a roll and apply it myself and save $200.
