It's an afternoon thing. Mmmm, gelato. Yeah, that's a step in the right direction. When you say hills, how steep? (not that great at steep hill driving with a stick )

I mentioned "cheap" and what I was really trying to say is, don't suggest Ruth's Chris. Any restaurant is fine as long as it doesn't make me look like a sugar daddy. And Starbucks is too corporate for me and has no character. Based on some web reviews that I found, Gelato Vero sounds like a cool place. If it's going well, we'll hang out more. What's there to do in the area? Maybe have dinner later on, too.

Yeah, I already ruled out PB. That's where me and the boys go. I haven't been to Gaslamp in years, so any suggestions there?

I guess that I'm looking for places with a nice atmosphere, not too loud (like a nightclub), with an outdoor patio where we can people watch and has things to do in the area.

is that your nickname for your new teflon coated rod?

protocav

indeed.




i just wanted to stir the pot a little, to see if anyone was still around.

i think many people lost interest here after we talked about our 11" rods ... I know one person hasn't said anything since then

did you all see the disgusting kinetix complete manifold replacement in the engine section? more fuel for my fire. looks like someone learned how to weld while they were making it.

I was going to call you today about that but I just got my new cell phone.... So when do we see the first prototype?

Z BOY

iTrader: (41)

ya, its fugly but would look better polished. the numbers will speak louder than the looks, and that was just the prototype; until the numbers, i remain skeptical.

protocav

iTrader: (3)

well, just by looking at it i can tell that the runners are larger diameter, and shorter than stock. this would be great for FI, but i guarantee that it will loose power across the board in NA form. if they post otherwise...they are lying. mine will have the same diameter runners as stock, but they will be considerably longer. believe it or not, the runners on the stock lower manifold are pretty long, so it has taken me a lot of thinking and planning to decide which direction i want to go. i have acqured all of my 90 degree bends, and am curerntly trying to get the flanges manufactured...that is the tough part.

i am so busy with installs at the moment, allthough i can't complain, perhaps i will start on it in may.

Any plans on a manifold for us boosted types or will yours be good for both...BTW I got the Cusco arms today....They are VERY nice...

JimRHIT

iTrader: (6)

wow ... people are making buttlove to this thing already ...

...b/c of ONE FI DYNO!!!

This is exactly like mustand Edelbrock performer RPM manifold ... no good for around town ... but good for a race. I dont know about you guys ... but that's not my idea of a good mod

protocav

iTrader: (3)

i agree. in his later posts, lsdunique is already doubting the potential in NA form.

hey rob,
since we will be doing your install in a week, do you still want to install my arms on your car if you don't sell the cusco's, or should i just put them up for sale elsewhere? i am guessing that it will be cake to sell some brand new parts, but maybe i am wrong.

call me today and we can talk about it. do you still have the same #?

JimRHIT

iTrader: (6)

The problem is that all of the magazine racers here on the boards don't understand the $$/hp benefits that FI introduces.

Everyone thinks boosted and NA cars react the same to mods. Only one person had asked of runner length, plenum volume etc .... and that guy is TT'd ... I don't see this (in my eyes) uglyass part ever making it's way under my hood

that said, I did just get a Kinetix plastic plenum, for cheaper than the spacer ... gotta love when everyone gets excited about somethign new .. old (read: proven) parts' prices fall to the floor

this is total ownage ... DL this guys ... its good
