Ohy noes - we may be twins separated at birth

Cass,
I got shotgun first when it's done! muhahaha
What time you gonna be there on Saturday? I'm swinging by to see the beast roll out.
Mid day arrival and then some final street tuning with me at the wheel to see if my driving style finds any holes in the maps that need to be cleaned up. Then throw the flashers on and do 25mph all the way home "Risky Business" style so I don't plant it in the jersey wall on my way home with the bald *** tires.

Anytime Jay, you know where to find me and we still need to have those beers , or you could just wait till winter and drop your beast off with Sharif for a few weeks and I'm sure he would get you there no problem. I still remember when you were selling this car as soon as you got it back

Fuel system is in (thanks to Dave for figuring my rats nest of used parts out and to the guys at SP for getting the needed parts out overnight), hopefully have some tuning results later today.

PICKING CAR UP TOMORROW

I had a bit of a health scare early this week and spent some time in the hospital, asthma is no joke sometimes, I really thought I was a gonner there for a minute. I'm on the mend now and looking forward to a long anticipated weekend. I've been burning the candle at both ends for a while now and need to take some time to just kick back and not stress.

Who dis?

I have been cut off from updates today by Dave

As long as its ready tomorrow than fine. Probably get down around noonish, hoping for no rain as the rears are smoother than a freshly shaved *******.

Wait till you guys see some of the crazy fail sent my way from Wicked CAS on the sub box, this is so epic it needs lots of pics an its own fail thread. Looks like stock speaker sound for the ride home.

Off to F:T in a couple of hours for pickup. The car has been detuned to ~575whp for now as some kinks need to be sorted out on the fuel system yet. This should be more than ample to put a smile on my face and some soil in my pants.... for now .

I am hoping the drivability is smooth and there will be much to be done over the winter to have my setup fully complete, but from now till snow I will log as many miles as possible. Vids will follow as time allows and they will surely be better than Jay'z low speed drivebys

I am looking forward to changing the wallpaper on my desktop from a pic of my car on the back of a rollback to an actual shot of it driving.
