While we are waiting...I have some good news! I jumped on the 'cooled Vortech from 91svtcoupe here on the TMS forums. It was a deal I couldn't resist. I was debating on the non-cooled V3 from Brenspeed, but for a hundred or two more I have a basically brand new 'cooled blower!

The install won't be done until near end of winter time, (it's snowy in Minnesota), but I figure I will have time to get everything lined-up, maybe some powdercoating like Leo did, and figure out what fuel pump upgrade to get.
I am only going to stay up till 2 waiting for this haha, otherwise I'll check the thread in the morning.

come on an old maid could type faster. Get to it
Well after spending 80+ bucks on three drinks I'm done. It's almost 1 and tomorrows meetings at 8 is going to be fun (not).
Sorry no sordid tales of hooking up with a hot-out-of-town nurse that I won't see again. Tomorrow is the 'big' night at the client event some music thing. Today was just over priced booze at a 'vegas-style' club (a regular club for us SoCal guys).
Good news is that the booze is free at the client event, so F-Tennessee and their 25% booze tax.

Got a call from John at ST while in class today. SC is in, Gauges are in, KB BAP is in. No problems so far. Only thing left is for Adam to tune it first thing tomorrow morning. Assuming all goes well I should have the car back by 12ish.
Looks like my gripes about getting a used kit were a bit more dramatic than necessary. While the injectors and some hoses, clamps etc were missing. In the end it only cost me a set of plugs and $60 for the misc stuff. With that said the original seller is sending me a set of 39# injectores that I'll be able to sell and recoup most of the money. So it's ok to buy used just be extra careful.

Forgot to reply to Danny. I'm due for my 30k maintence. Most of the stuff on the list is BS. With that said I'll be changing my fuel filter tomorrow so I'll take some pics to document the swap. Plus I'll be swapping the cabin filter so I'll document that as well. As far as checking the brake pads and hose lines all you have to do is remove the wheels. If you see brake pads your good. If you had issues with the line I'm sure you would've been into a wall by now. Whatever you do don't pay the dealer $630.

Brian-What's up with the second pic of all those homo's on stage. Are you sure you aren't at a gay bar?
Jed-They told me to call before I head out just to make sure tuning is going trouble free. So knock on wood It should be ready by 1pm. I'll be calling at 9ish to see how it's going. Assuming I get the green light when I call I'll head out asap. I'll make sure to post if and when I'm on my way tomorrow morning.
Everyone cross your fingers.

I'd like to add those to the Hotlinks thread.
28 bones for a Gin & tonic? The only thing missing from that deal was a mask and a smoking gun.
If you ever go back to that 'club', make sure you preload in the parking lot.
Good luck today..

Fingers are crossed
Take some step-by-step pics and note the size of socket/wrenches used.

So that's how Tennesseeians get down huh?

Bring along your point & shoot and get some initial shots and maybe video the dyno run.
