Good news Larry hope all goes well for you brother........

 

Congrats on getting the car back Larry! Trust me brother I know how it is, I haven't had my G for a year now and still looks like it won't be done until the end of January.

Atleast it looks good. I have been without my car for only 2 weeks, I don't see how JETPILOT and Others cope with such a long time. Great to hear you are back in your car JET.

 

Thanks guys.... I won't be able to drive it for a while. I am going away to europe to fly. I don't know when I will get to drive it much. I think I will part it out and sell the car. I have it back and I am not feeling any love for it.

Damn bro, sucks for you. Sorry to hear that.

 

I have a Mazda Speed 3 and I enjoy driving it more. I don't have to worry about where I park it, who will fix it when something breaks, what driveways at which gas stations I can get into etc... A warranty is a nice thing.

ALWAYS nice to have a nice "beater"

congrats on having your car back, i know the feeling but i think it paid off, and there is still room for you to go a step further if needed

 

I know the feeling I got me a Scion Xb. I'm totally diggin the gas mileage and ease of finding somewhere to park.

 

Get yourself a G35 Sedan......I don't worry about squat!

 

But the new ones are sooo nice now

Ha ha j/k, well, not really

 

I just meant that he won't have to worry about where he parks it or what gas station he can pull into, etc.

although Larry really doen't need to worry about where he parks it.....crime is almost nonexistant over here. I don't even turn my car off when I go into a 7-11.

 

Hey Larry, really happy for you to have your car back. It's been a long bumpy road for sure, but hopefully smooth sailing from now on.

As mentioned, our dyno reads about 10-13% lower than a typical dynojet, so I would expect at least 500whp on Jermey's dyno. As I mentioned over the phone, I really didn't think it was prudent to push the engine any harder, after everything you had been through. We did this job at no charge to you, becuase I felt it was the right thing to do. I wanted to make sure you had a nice, safe, reliable tune to enjoy for a long time.

My advise to you, is to let the engine break in a little bit more, switch to synthetic oil, and then have Jeremy@PF work his magic and run some more boost. I have no doubt that there is more power to be had, if that is what you desire. Just be careful. You have been through so much already, and I just want you to finally enjoy your car!

PS: Your stuff shipped out today.

 

Thanks Sharif,

I changed the oil & filter today. The car had 596 mi from the ride home. Once I get the cosworth intake on it I will retune it. I haven't gotten on boost yet. I am waiting for 1000mi. Everything looks good so far. No oil leaks anywhere.

good luck man , 470 on sharif's dyno is plenty to play with . i thought you sold the car long ago , glad you still have it , just drive it boost it and you'll be smiling all the time , i'm sure time will make you like the car again . 8 months is a long wait though .

 

Jet i know you have a thirst for power.. but i agree with Sharif.. you should enjoy your car for a little bit.. then go for more power

 

Larry,

it was nice to see the car driving and on the road again! She's a beauty!!!

 

Thanks Andrew!

How's the new hood look in the daylight? is the paint a perfct match?

 

I haven't taken it out yet. I hope it matches.

JET

 

thanks man, we are sooo slammed right now. trying to do some more big things get a few more miles on the motor larry and then we will set up a date. looking forward to playing with it, just dont want it to turn into anything with me vs. sharif. sharif does a really good job at everything and if he felt like 500 or so for a while is what you need, then he is right.

we will take it up to the next level safely here soon for you...
