Also, the Ram has head/tail lamp strobes, they look good, i will take a vid when i have time.
well as any divorce when your dad calls it and cheats.
he kicked us out and i was living with a friend for almost a month, then me and my mom found a place. me and him didn't talk much if at all, and we started to talk but heads alot and all that. but me and him have been doing pretty good for the past couple of weeks and tonight is actually the first time taht i have stayed in this house since i was kicked out.

one step at a time..

True. But it holds up better deep into the rpm range.

This is my baseline tune. Its the tune that I will use when I go through the cones. I could beat the **** out of my car all day long and not run into troubles.

I have a few more mods coming.

I already have a meth injection kit. I will probably try a 3" pulley. Currently running a 3.15" I am considering a 3" cat-back. Oh and I have a ported head coming. So this is just the beginning.

well, i guess il let the cat out of the bag for those that dont know. Me and preston swapped setups. just as a temporary fix till my new drain line for the turbo could come in we used heater hose(i know i know). Of course i paid dearly for this. Drain line ruptured. no oil. idiot light. spun bearing. and now its rebuild time.

Already ordered: Eagle rods. Ordering tommorow: wiesco coated pistons (10.1:1), Arp headstuds, Rod bearings, Head Gasket.

Ive got a new block so i wont need to machine the old one, If you need parts off of it let me know i will part it out.

I go to Beyond Redline in Green Bay. They are not associated with the Beyond down by you guys. They have proven to be very professional and very knowledgeable every time I have gone there. I have been to the dyno 4 times.

All my numbers have been very consistent with gains that other people are seeing. It is by no means a "happy" dyno. If I wanted bigger numbers I would have a drive a few hours. lol But that is really not important to me.

Beyond Redline has a AWD dyno. Its really nice. I am thinking about taking the Bravada for an AWD baseline!

Beyond Redline in Green Bay will tune you for $600.

What is your setup? Do you have a wideband sensor?

well now that ive dug into it a bit more, i found that the bearing is not spun but rather piston #1 let go, theres oil and metal in the cylinder and on the spark plug.

Oh, So thats how i put those numbers down. Beeyond has a "happy" dyno. Thanks for clearing that up for me. I bet my car only makes 220hp on your real dyno.

YOUR A TOOL
