you wont even feel a 75 shot.. i had it on my accord and i was like,, 'thats it?' if only spraying on the weekend go 150..

arp rod bolts? umm.. i think that requires you to machine the caps, look into the katech ones..

p.s. my ls2 has stock rod bolts, 14psi. close to 800whp, you dont need them..

Get the 7531 first. You will get alot more out of the tune with a 7531. Especially if you are keeping the plate.

I used arps with no machining. Agreed 75 is kinda boring.

Steve Jackson had a couple for sale for about $400 not too long ago. Not sure if he sold them or not. I told Robert Holton about it too, he may have got one of them.

Do you just like arguing with me? If so, just say it. I can argue all night long.

75 is still up in the air until I talk back with Alvin. I want to stick with what he wants to do via email. 75 was pulled out of my ass to get a point across. Never was set in stone.

I'll look at the katech ones. Never heard about machining the caps.

Yeah I'm kind of enjoying it. Don't know the point of it but oh well

Sure you were talkin TO him. But what were you really trying to say? What were your intentions? To get a reaction out of me and show how naive you think I am right?

Thought you were quitting.

As far as doing this all night, sorry. It's bed time. I would love to, but 4 am comes early. I'll miss u though

Sleep tight!

Chris could be using his alot more than he is. Not sure if he is to that point yet or not? I'd be glad to show him atleast one trick that would help him if he doesn't already know it.

Sure don't. Wanna beat up on my slow truck? Or wanna beat up on me?

Dont know what got u goin so much but it sure was surprising. I did learn a lot from this thread though. You guys did succeed in making me think about a couple of more angles to this adventure. Thanks for the dialogue. That includes you Wes. No ill will was ever meant.

Not anywhere close to that point. Ill be the first to tell you im clueless when it comes to tuning. The 7531 in my car is being used for a 2/3 step thats it! 1iron helped me out last weekend with a few things but im open to learn from whoever.
