For the record...i usually never get that smashed

...and the times that i do...i usually find a way to isolate myself away from anybody that would do that to me...

many years of drunk pranks have taught me to be more conscious of my surroundings


sephy: i think if you google that blue 4rotor on youtube you'll see it didn't do too bad last year. You can also listen to it on youtube. Rory was there when that thing was revving. THAT **** WAS LOUUUUUUDDDDDDDD!!!!

Dozer: well ****, when you say it like that


no but seriously, the event officially shuts down around 6pm - we'll probably be out before then so like maybe 4 or so. That'll still leave plenty of sunlight to do ****. If you start up the bbq right when we get out (i'll call you ahead of time) i'll get there n' grill the **** up n' grub. Cool??

Right now i'm thinkin it's gonna be chase, evil john, ghey john and me + chase's friends. Rev is on the fence still.

Glad to hear he was nice about the whole thing. throw an OEM exhaust on there, get it signed off and you'll be set.

Hey guys I need some confirmation on something regarding the RB Revi intake for those of you who remember how it works. When my car was fixed and a new intake installed the body shop really half assed it.

My question - Is the main cone filter secured to the outside of the box assembly with the big blue ring that is attached with the 10mm bolts. Right now the entire filter is just chilling inside the box.

Jedi; you wanna make an appearance n' show off that new pearly black CAI

Dozer: I'll hit you up right when we get out. It'll be in LB so it'll probably take us like 20 minutes after we jump on the freeway.

Ring on the outside secured by screws.

no the rubber part of the cone is suppose to be outside to seal the edges and the blue ring is suppose to go on top of that....

that's what I thought, so the very edge of the cone is outside the box

i hope it's the reason why my idle is so bad. Also they didn't put a screen in the tube. Roger does my airbox have another screen in it still?

atilla: I'd like to but I doubt I'll be able to.
Need to be at Tim's at 7:00 am to prep his car and then we're dropping it of in Gardena for a little work. I'll need the bimmer to transport certain parts...

After that, I'm racing to my little godson's T-ball game in Tustin, and then after that I somehow got volunteered to be a furniture mover at my sister's house for her upcoming baby shower on sunday. why the hell I'M doing this and not her husband is beyond me.

if you don't have a screen, that will DEFINITELY mess up your idle.

Rev: have you checked the screws that hold your MAF in place??


i know it sounds kinda dumb but me, apocolypse and j03 have all run into an issue with the screws that hold the maf inplace. I'm probably going to blame it on engine vibration that causes it but at some point the screw comes out and the maf gets loose thus causing idle issues and random stalling.
