No dyno today.

They will have to do that after I leave.

I'm training tuners, not tuning cars if ya know what I mean... they can do that stuff on their own time.

Agreed! I am taking a minimum of three days off of even thinking about cars.

Want to say thanks to Kane for coming all the way to Texas to teach us how to Tune. Thanks to Shadycrew for helping me remove my CAT to gut it (got it all the way off only to find out it was already hollow...Rene did all the work) but thanks anyway. Thanks to Houstonrx8er's wife for the AWESOME smoked chicken breast Sunday evening and the meds (would have never made it back to Houston without them)...but a Special thanks to the whole SARX crew for the invite and making an outsider feel welcome. I hope to get back soon to help with the next project! SARX is legit and a bunch of stand up guys!!!! Thanks-A-Million!

I look awesome.

And my FMIC totally makes up for my off-white wheels and lack of undertray.

Yeah man, we couldn't work through the problems we have run into if we didn't help each other. I know it can be frustrating and at times we want to set our cars on fire but when we do get it done that is what makes it all worth it. Keep your eye on the prize guys, my car gets better each and every day and every time I get into boost nice and smooth it makes all the hard work and money spent worth it.

Kane has empowered us so now it's up to us to run with it. Sure we will blow some engines but at least we have had practice rebuilding them

Wow! If I would've ran into all your rides I would've died of a giddy, fanboyish heart attack. Gorgeous 8s.

Nice pics,

I think that was Shady's "I haven't boosted yet" face. We fixed that though...
