Bret's using a F2 so that's a whole different ballgame.

Jmuck, which A&A cooler do you have? I'm in the market for one.

That's why I chose the Tigershark nose, hoping that would get it enough air. I'll report back for sure.

It's not mounted, but it's built.

You guys should just spray a little nitrous instead of wasting so much money, its absurd, or pull the intercooler and run c16. You don't need 2000 HP to be fast.

Those are really good IAT's.

I can understand the desire to go bigger to handle your potential upgrades, though.
Good luck, man!

Even with a better i/c I'd still keep spraying the meth.

I run VP110 so the meth is just an added safety measure.

Thanks! We'll see what happens, its looking more and more like I'll have an F2 on it here soon.

I was keeping the mood light, but you went and got cocky.

If I get to roll down to TX2K in March I'll make sure to PM you my cell so I can show you how us "absurd" guys do it.

Jarrod are you going to be ready for TX2K?

If I can line up some tuning gigs I think I'll fly down with my gear.

Any Texas boys need there cars tuned in March?

I am going to TX2K with or without a car. If without, I'll have the black truck working as a rolling fuel station/support vehicle.

Most likely Arun. My biggest challenge will be time away from work. Now that we have 2 stores, its difficult for me to leave.
