the tap and die set is a steal, but for the torque extensions, you are better off buying the torque wrench from sears for the same price.



wow, that was a long lunch. onami.

Check this out Chad....


R&T test (75 degrees F)
0-30: 2.1
0-40: 3.3
0-50: 4.4
0-60: 5.6


Me (50 degrees F)
0-30: 2.1
0-40: 3.2
0-50: 4.1
0-60: 5.09



do this comparo make my 0-60 best run more believable??? after all, the dyno's for the popcharger making 6whp is mostly in the upper rpm's, as well as the Borla, and the plenum is most noticeable in the mid to upper range, hence the drop of 3/10 in the 0-50.

Unhappy Hat-trick

No need to respond Chad....you win.


I discovered an abnormality in the graph, which for the most part negates the 5.09 run.


Do you know what this means Chad?



It means that my car is a f*cking slow piece of crap!!!!




A little bit of good news: my revised best 0-60 run is 5.77 and an 1/8 mile of 9.18 seconds @ 82 mph. F*ck, isn't 82 mph a little fast for the 1/8? What does that mean? No traction in the beginning but picked up quick in the top end?



Still, my best run is .11 off from Chad's, and he has a heavier car, and less mods, which emphasizes yet again that my car is slow

You must of course factor in that Chad is a MUCH more experienced driver then you. It takes LOTS of prcatice to be able to things quickly in a car.
