Ponies on The Run (Again)

I want a 'SLASH', not a steak knife cut. 
C'mon Leo.. Who's your buddy?
Blower in Black or Polished?
Thrust M's in anthracite?
So you're saying no gauges with the Whipple install? Going to hook them up yourself or have them done?
Man, 1 day install before Knotts is risky! I know they're good, but 1 small issue will shut you down.

I'm going with the 500hp HO Whipple. Tuned by ST Motorsports. Should be good for a minimum of 440-450 RWHP consistently.
Tires/Wheels are going to be the Torq Thrust M 18x9 & 255/45-18 Nitto 555 and 18x10s on 285/40-18 Also Nittos.
Gauges will be cobalt or nexus ?? Wideband AF, Boost and H2O temp in a SOS gauge pod, including a Raptor shift light.

Black also looking at the extra large Intercooler reservoir

Anthracite

Nope... I'll have them installed somewhere but not immediately. Adam says I don't have to have them, the tune is solid enough. Still I want them and will be looking to getting the gauges as soon as possible.

Tell me about it. So we'll see. I don't have my hopes set so high that I expect it to happen, but being this close I am anxious. They've done 60+ of these installs not included the custom made stuff he was very confident that a 1 day install is entirely doable. Again we'll see.

Brian- Did you see Fluidyne's larger SC intercooler? Aways good to know what your options are.
Good deal on the rest. Amazing that ST can knock out an install and dyno tune in a work day. Mine will end up taking 3 weekends and several couple hour weekdays... and that's without removing the front bumper!
New wheels & tires will look awesome!

Bon Voyage Bill!
I hooked Bill up with my custom mobile bar!
1. Appleton Rum 21 year old (slow sippin) rum, savor! This is the high end stuff Zan Lamprey mixed with soda that bone head.
2. Sauza Commerativo Anjeo Tequilla
3. Jose Quervo Tradicion Tequilla
Looks like each vile holds 1.5 oz of pleasure! I inclued a mini funnel so you can recharge them. Have a great time on the LOVE boat!

With all this booze, I hope to remember just a fraction of this vacation.
I hope this mini-bar makes it past security! It looks lethal!

Whoa- TMI...
Alright, I'd love to keep this completely under wraps but I can't and because I gotta rant a little bit.
I have the $$$ money and quotes and everything else lined up and ready to go FI via the Whipple. ST Motorsports will do the install and is waiting for me to set a date, which I won't do.... because.....<rant> the F*&#ing banks/financial inst. had their collective heads up their collective butts. Just when I think everything is under control and ready to go I find out, today..TODAY, that they for some G'd reason have my street name wrong. Did it get sent to me ? Will it get to me ?? it's all a big question mark.</rant>
So to answer any questions. Here is what I'm doing, which of little surprise to anyone here.
I'm going with the 500hp HO Whipple. Tuned by ST Motorsports. Should be good for a minimum of 440-450 RWHP consistently.
Tires/Wheels are going to be the Torq Thrust M 18x9 & 255/45-18 Nitto 555 and 18x10s on 285/40-18 Also Nittos.
Gauges will be cobalt or nexus ?? Wideband AF, Boost and H2O temp in a SOS gauge pod, including a Raptor shift light. These however will wait for me to sell the things I have to sell C&L, UDP, Hurst and the Bullitts.
Best estimates right now being optimistic is believe it or not, the weekend of Knott's !! Possibly that Saturday. If not the following. Either way I could be done by the end of the month. However my luck with this shiite it could be August LOL.
Stupid banks.

First Amendment to the Constitution "right of the people to peaceably assemble". I guess the Federal Constitution is TP in the People's Republic of Kalifornia. Be careful you hooligans.
