Good luck bro.

 

thanks bro dropped her off yesterday they are shooting for mid week so we shall see. im gonna go up there monday n get some shots.

 

just a few cell pics ive taken











ready to go

 

awesome, cant wait to see the finished product, i am planning on doing a very similar build in few months.

 

thanks man!!

drove up to S&R today to check on progress since i had dropped her off on friday and she hasnt even been touched. i have a very strict deadline of friday due to my military commitment so theses dudes need to get on the ball. hope they get it together they have known of my deadline.

 

cutting it close

 

and what happens if they dont meet your deadline? i dont imagine anything can happen except hurt feelings.

 

i dont think you understand its not about my feelings. i have to be up in georgia on saturday morning i am active duty military with a demanding job. they have known this. they guaranteed it would happen. if they dont make my deadline they lose my buisness

its a supercharger not a new science project. they have had the car since friday.

 

probability of success in re: to your deadline is < 30%

 

gotta hold out hope! haha

 

good luck w/your setup

 

I would think after driving it; your honna have to spend a few more days on the dyno tuning it for perfection...they can do a supercharger in day and a half most likely Tampa is a well developed place..im sure the shop will get it done ...look forward to the outcome ...take it down the 1/4 mile..that's what number I like to see...!
Good luck
Maybe one day ill have the chance to do the HR TT but I dont think it's in the plans as of now..but just interested in this build end results

 

thank you! i spoke with the owner bobby today and he reassured me it would be done so we shall see. i do more road racing/autox but i would love to see what she runs down the 1/4 mile so i will deff post numbers when i do.

 

Rushing an F/I install and tune isn't the best idea + if you don't have backup wheels you shouldn't have gone F/I in the first place... Not trying to be a d!ck but just sayin'.

 

lol very opinionated this week dj without knowing all the info. i have another vehicle its a truck. i live in georgia. my family is in tampa. i came down here last week they have had my car since friday 8 days is rushing a bolt on vortech? i wouldnt consider this a difficult job. ive ran threw the install myself numerous times and it "seems" simple installing everything else will prob take longer. they have done hundreds of vortech installs. im not saying i wish they wouldnt have waited this long to start. believe me i wish they woulda been working on it since friday. that part i cannot deny them starting today to be done friday is nuts to me. however they are a very reputable company and if bobby says it will be done and done right i believe him untill i am proven otherwise. i am not rushing anything. this is not my daily i couldnt drive both of them down at once.

 

I'm not saying you rushed them from the get go... but for whatever reason (not your fault) they have 2 days to complete it start to finish and you demand it done I consider that rushing it. Sure you can bolt it on in a day but properly tuning it requires time, assuming all goes according to plan (when does it?). Either way, good luck with the build.

 

Good luck and are you reporting to Moody or Robbins?

 

if i drove down from Georgia to tampa and had 8 days allotted i would be a little worried to if it was getting started 2 days before i was leaving XD

 

lol why is everyone assuming im not worried? i would not have mentioned it if i wasnt worried. i will deal with it as it comes. thanks.

im at moody. your mil aswell right?
