I suppose some 'adults' need to get a second job these days to make ends meet, or maybe the old guy is a freak and likes to look inside peoples' houses. If he's hurting for money, he shouldn't be driving around in a Cadi.
Good storm last night. We had a bonfire going for hours until the lightning came quickly. Looks like Nature took a power washer and cleaned everything overnight.

On another note about that storm Dave it is supposedly going to continue in to today as the temp climbs to 74 degrees with possible large hail tonight and tornadoes which in Minnesota usually means strong winds and trees in the road.

So watch the skies turn weird colors and stay indoors? Damn, I wanted to go to the gym and get 'swoll.' lol
I think the boys wanted to go swimming. Tara's still sick and seems like she's getting worse. She makes the worst patient when sick. Won't listen to me, can't sleep, gets worse before getting better, refuses to follow orders.... sigh. And I have to put up with it all.
Yes I am using the split second box, along with the vortech fmu. Hopefully he can get it to work. But shane would like to see me use the aem fic and ditch the fmu and go with bigger injectors.
Travis if you're shooting for 400 to the wheel you should try and get 600cc injectors along with the utech. Just to be on the safe side. I'm sure you probably have the walbro fuel pump... I hope
ive done tons and tons of research on this. Yeah I could get the 600s and injectors just to be on the safe side. But im not made of money u know. Why would I swap things out when the setup I have will work? There a quite a few ppl on here that are tuning their vortech setups with the ss box. It should work, it just takes time. I bought 440 injectors because the ss box has trouble with injectors over 500s apparently. What it all comes down to is shane. If he cant make it work ill be getting the aem fic and probably 600s. The utec is ok but the aem is better and thats what he is most comfortable with so that would be the best option. Im just testing the waters to see if I can save some cash. None of the shops around here have really done too much with aftermarket pulleys on a vortech z, so its kind of a learning process for both of us.

EDIT: What aftermarket pulleys you running?

Had a 07 BMW 325xi that was leased, didn't like it. Bitched his parents out and threatened to kill himself if they didn't buy him a 750i, so they did. Then he sold it for 1/4 of what they paid for it two years later and now rocks a brand new Charger Daytona.Did i mention that they paid for him to get liposuction? LOL Hes a piece of work..
Should have known him, Aaron. You would have loved him.

I installed my spacers on the 370 today....car looks sooooo much better now. I went with 15mm H&R DRS all around, I think it looks perfectly flush. Just might need a slight drop now.... 
Probably going to go with some high flow CATs later this summer.
