    have you ever looked into any of the adhesives they use in autobody. 3m, lord fusor, evercoat and valvoline all make really good products. probly the best would be the evercoat since that one dont take a special gun, just a typical calking gun is all you need.

    My windows were tinted by Tintmasters. Honestly, I knew about the dot matrix things and once the windows were tinted I didn't care that they didn't cover the dots. So far the tint looks fantastic and I doubt you'd complain if you went to Tintmasters.

    I agree w/ Jim on this one, have someone weld you up an exhaust using mandrel bends. Caleb @ Type-R did mine, but I am positive any of the shops in town would be more than capable of handling your request for that.

    Quick question....educate me here please why is it difficult for a motor equipped with some kind of Variable Timing (IE VTEC) to gain Forced Induction VIA turbo? Is it due to the high compression, and speaking of which why do VTEC motors have higher compressions then there counterparts? Always was curious about this.

    I don't recall off hand exactly what i paid for the 4 channel C2DI system, but it was about half of the cost of the HKS DLI. I think it was aroun $275 maybe. I can show you the EMS after I figure it out myself. DaveH and Nate Burgress (sp?) w/ the black Talon have it too.

    Any new info if the shop in the Cities has their dyno up and running yet? I am ready to do some serious tuning now that my injectors are done. With any luck I'll be at the track next friday night.

    here's a log from one of the runs on Friday. I have no other signals hooked up to it at the moment. So it's just the a/f... pretty obvious what was going on though [image: 347613_68_full.jpg] Yeah, it's running a TAD on the rich side. :roll: I hope to get it tuned after the correct FMU disk arrives. Can't do much while the SAFC2 is correcting sooo much. Makes the ECU run crazy timing advances. Literally making a ticking time bomb. But I digress... Anyway, this is it man. A rolling labratory. Between this and my ODBII scanner I'm beside myself with information. :? :lol: D
