Re: WCBF10 July 20 - 25

Sorry for the long delay on posting to this thread.

I will try with everything I have to attend this meet and will love to bring my son for a bit of bonding time as well.
We have a family reunion in Toronto next year and will take lots of resources to pull off in early August so not sure how long ...

Re: future upgrades

Turn around on a pcm is not too bad, you will only be without your car for a few days and will save a few bucks.

The level 2 kit will improve the pep in your L36 for sure.
Not sure about super charging in the future as this is more than a pcm tune and a new intake bolt on, but thats another subject.

Re: bad ending to a good race

Look at your vacuum lines, sounds like the one at the rear of the intake manifold came off or the one under the super charger nose.

Re: New windshield disaster

I had a similar windshield fiasco a few years back, except the used a 'generic' windshield moulding that did not match the car and broke off piece by piece revealing the brass support embedded in the mouding itself.

Thankfully early this summer the windshield took a foul ball at the local baseball ...

Re: Phenolic Blower Spacer

The spacer would help in a heat soaked engine cruising around town.
The short bursts at the track is on a cool engine so the engine cooling system would help cool the rapidly spinning super charger.
Too many back to back runs at the track and this effect is lost as well.

Re: '00 SSEi - Replacing coils

Yes, first test the coils, they are probably ok.
Even new wires can cause the issues your describing, check them too.
When was the last time you changed the plugs?

Re: WCBF09 July 19 - 26 - Corvallis Oregon

In the past we a total group shot and then they left and we stayed behind for an extra b'vers only pic.
This does take time to setup and I think a bit of a map with general layout would be nice.
You kinda need 3 people or more with radios to direct the flow and place the cars.

As for camping stuff ...

Re: This amp is hot!

A few q's.
What size of cable are you powering the amp with?
Also the ground wire size and is it a good secure connection to the frame or similar?

Aside from that you may want to add a capacitor?

13.5??? In my dreams.
Theres a whole lotta work for ol' Bone Evil to get there after 270,000kms (170,000 miles for you Geico types).

My slicks maybe available for track use if I dont run...I'm thinking Matt could use them for a pb :beerchug:

Re: WCBF09 July 19 - 26

Taylor if it comes to it I can swing by Spokane and pick up the shirts but I'm sure you'll pull a rabbit out of the hat yet.

So its just me and my abused liver that will be showing up, not sure about racing the car this year but you never know.
