Default WMC and WMR the secret is out

Well as you all know I sold my pickup and I also sold some computers I had... so about a month and a half ago I was on line checking out the winter specials and I came to A&A corvette's site and they had the C-5 superchargers on sale.


So I called my wife and told her.

Well I was ready for a great and glorious battle in a attempt to finally secure a supercharger.. My beautiful wife tricked me and agreed that it was time to get one

After the shock wore off I got on the phone as fast as I could and ordered it before my wife came to her senses.

Well its true.....Its on the way... So anyone that wants to help...PM me and I'll let you know when I'm doing what...

So thats right supercharger MOD party at my house over multiple weekends:party :

VERY nice! Start saving up for the traffic tickets. I know you will never be able to keep your foot out of it now!

I'll help if needed. Ty has installed several of those and would answer questions and do your dyno tune after. You can download the instructions from A&A from the website right now I think.

Thanks.

I downloaded the instruction about a month ago and have read them a million times

Already talked to Ty and he'll be doing the dyno cause he does great work.

I'll keep you in the loop thanks
