robitrice Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 DW is drop in so it would be quicker, but i think the walbro 255's are cheaper i believe and are quite popular....i have had it with the modified housing for a while with no issues.

Nrw Posted August 31, 2012 Author Share Posted August 31, 2012 I mentioned this to the wife, and we might drive over simply to hang out, meet some people, ask some questions, and eat your food. The car is still very new to me, so I'm not planning to get a tune done this year... but it is something I'd like to do at some point. Besides, I need figure out what winter wheels/tires I want, which will probably be about the same cost as AP + tune anyway. Hope to see ya there! Great place to learn a few things. I can't make any promises on peer pressure though Wish you guys were closer. Maybe I'll drag my prego wife out there and say hi if the schedule allows. Do it! You should drag out that other specB fellow with ya Going to be working my ass off so I can get the funds for this. I want to get a DW65C Fuel Pump before I dyno. No time for rest, work work work! Battle of the vf52's! Me and Moosh are going to have a battle of the stage deuces Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nrw Posted August 31, 2012 Author Share Posted August 31, 2012 I might go with a vf52. It's my current top turbo choice. Stage douchebag first. Re-coop funds, pick out turbo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robitrice Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 yea im done after this until i buy a beater car and buy a shortblock to build with a turbo, been looking at AMR and the Goblin Series but i gotta sell a street bike in the spring to get those funds going!

Y4555 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 If I push I could probably get my wagon back together in time for this. If so I'd also be interested in doing a pull just for curiosities sake, but it would be worth stopping by regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dujo Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Alright. I succumb to peer pressure. Put me on the list. I might have to put out the call for last minute assistance a few days beforehand, but why do I have the feeling the rest of you will be working hard on your own issues as time gets close. I'll make it happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robitrice Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 This just might b a long ass day which would b great as i wont b there until 130!! Which means ill b able to do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dujo Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Fyi ... I can be pretty flexible on timing that day. Of course, I'll be coming from Boston at 1/4 throttle the whole way, so it may take me a while to get there, but I don't mind getting up early in the day if that's how things shake out. However Bren and Neil wanna run this show is cool with me though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has no issues with spending the day there cranking out top notch tunes for our LGT's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However Bren and Neil wanna run this show is cool with me though. IIRC, I don't think Bren does "early" I got another set of hands/tools here that can help out, if needed... Don't know much, but if you can tell me what to do and need some help, I'm also in the neighborhood... Though I'll be out of town in the days immediately before Tuning Day... Hoping to swing by (driving down Rt2 from VT to Boston that day anyway, so not too far out of the way) for a bit during the afternoon to put some names/faces with screen names... Look forward to meeting/seeing you all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFBeefcake Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I should realy get the BNR 16g and FMS tmic that has been siting in my basment for like 2 months now installed on my wife's LGT and get it up there, but I would have to do the install the night before and I dont think I can get it all done in one night.

Dujo Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Let's see ... Passenger side torn inner cv joint boot (might as well replace the gear oil with extra s at this time) - still need parts and gear oil ... just found this one when I had the underneath plastic skid plate thingy off to do gauges. F/R sways plus endlinks + support braces Infamous oil line uppipe (CEL resistor disable) downpipe with wideband O2 (gauge already mounted, but sensor line needs to be run) catback intercooler turbo blanket turbo heatshield new battery? in my driveway on jackstands with handtools. Be nice to get the USDM fogs mounted in the JDM bumper. Maybe do some engine bling and lip, but those may be lower priority. We'll see. Total car experience to date: oil change suspension (struts - a couple times) cosmetic nonsense (hellas, etc) gauges oh and cai on the 4-banger '99 Honda Accord 5MT. Car also must be running on September 12-14th as my wife will take our other car out of town for a business trip and I need a DD. Sounds like I should try to knock out as much as I can of those first three this weekend and then do the exhaust/intercooler stuff after the 14th.
