Word, I was thinking, "who the fuck just signs up to say, "is this thing done yet" that isn't even in the state! Madison sucks man.. Don't even get me started.. I'm not a fan of the people here. Other then that, this town isn't terrible. The roads could be smoother, but where couldn't they be!

[Rowleym]

Thread jack- Madison is the best! I love that place. You need to come back to green lake and see what a real shitty town is. You are crazy lucky living there compared to this shit hole.- Thread jack end

[Brian.]

Rowley, I'll be there this weekend to get stuff for my BMW. Then to Oshkosh till wednesday. Madison's not as great as you think. It's so hoodrat infested. I'm not making this shit up. This summer, come stay with me for a week, and you'll realize just what I'm talking about

[Rowleym]

Hoodrats? In Madison? Mind blown. I really need to do that haha.

[Brian.]

Hood rats for real. So many wanna be gangsters..

The area you live in isn't exactly top shelf.

[Brian.]

No shit! But the price for my apartment was spot on. So I can't complain! We're moving again in September, or if Wisconsin management doesn't get their shit in gear, we're moving sooner. They're terrible land lords.

Got up by the car again yesterday. All the suspension is off, which is funny, as it's on a 4 post lift in a seperate area of the shop, so I had to block it up, only way to make it better would have been if I were to find some cinder blocks.

Also tore the intake manifold off. The amount of bolts holding that on is just plain stupid.

Also took out the cluster and HVAC panel to make some blank off plates for a client, and get my pixels fixed.

I have always loved the M V8 intake trumpets.

Talk about an inefficient engine though. 8 throttle bodies!!?!?!? My car only requires 1 to get me down the road.

/donttazemebro

[REKIII]

Yeah, the trumpets are neat......they are going away though, as is the whole stock manifold.

Not only are there 8 tb's they are all uniquly cast. No wonder this car was over the top expensive.

[B C]

Custom manifold upstream of the TB's then?!?!?! Should be real interesting for sure

[Earl]

Please say FMU velocity stacks!!!

[REKIII]

Velocity stacks don't make a siginificant difference in forced induction applications. There will be care taken in the airflow and transitions, but there won't be actual stacks.

[Brian.]

Velocity stacks are awesome as hell. But with it being boosted, theyd do almost nothing, and you wouldn't get the amazing symphony they let bellow.

[REKIII]

Could this be the answer to all my woes?

It could be.......or a complete failure. I'm hoping for epicness, but I have to be honest with myself, hahaha
