Ben, I don't think HKS offers a turbo kit anymore after the fiasco with Rotrex. Am I wrong?
rotrex = supercharger

I think my score is 500.... I want it to be zero. I hate the credit scoring system. It's evil and totally locks everyone in to some kind of conformist system.

<-- non-conformist

Highest FICO is 850.

Lemme find some info...




Credit Score: this score is determined by the credit reporting agencies (a.k.a. credit bureaus) and FICO by taking a number of factors into consideration including but not limited to: payment history, amount owed, and length of time an account has been open. Exact scales for traditional credit scoring vary from bureau to bureau, but are around 350 - 900. Your traditional credit score may be based on factors from as far back as seven or eight years.

FICO Score: a mathematical equation/calculation lenders use to evaluate the risk associated with lending you money. FICO stands for Fair Isaac Company, the company that originally created the formula.

Exactly in this case the Equifax bureau was on a scale of 300-950. It's interesting to read tho that Fair Isaac was the one that created the formula my BIL works there.. Nice find Spork

I had type X alpines. did not like them. have phoenix gold ones that cost half of what the alpines did. I am not in love with them, but they are better than stock and better than the alpines I had. Stockers weren't clear enough for me, and the alpines were much too harsh

I had a decent Thanksgiving. I even went to the gym! lol

I'm still having issues with my new video card. I think I'm going to buy a new heatsink and fan for it, plus I want to get an extra fan for the back of the tower to pull hot air out.

I have a mut setup in my Z. I have a Kenwood KOS-V500 controller running a Kenwood KOS-L702, kenwood bluetooth, and kenwood navi system. I also have a separate stereo setup with and alpine head unit, PG components, JL sub, and PG amp.... don't ask me why so complicated, it just came out like that

In my Xterra I have a DNX8120, last years top of the line navi/dvd/touch screen. I really like the 8120. The navigation is great. I prefer it to the oem navi in my new honda. the new 9140 is supposed to be even better, but it is pricey. Overall, I really like the garmin based kenwood navigation.
