Sounds good to me!!! I've been wondering how everyone has been wintering. Now I'll have to clean up and maybe wax my MM for sure. Some of the recent weather has been teasing us hasn't it! :beer:

I'll be there.

Got my Xcalibrator from Lidio Monday. Just put the tune in this morning.

:D WOW. :D This thing shifts like a beast at WOT, and perfect in normal driving. THANKS LIDIO and Alternative Perfomance.

Now to put in the 4.56's........yeah you heard me right, 4.56's. Had Lidio put a tune in for 3.55's, 4.30's, and 4.56's. I'm going straight to the 4.56's to hang with BillyGman. I wanna smoke ricers, and don't need to go fast on the highway. Heavy car needs low gears. (Just notice the RPM where our cars start to REALLY PULL, pretty sure it's 3200-3500 RPM. 4.56's will put you there QUICK.)

4.56 - 27.9 (Avg Tire Height) - 112 MPH - 6151 RPM - 1:1 (Third Gear)
4.56 - 27.9 (Avg Tire Height) - 140 MPH - 5382 RPM - 0.7:1 (OD)

It's all good. :beer:

teamrope
02-23-2005, 07:54 PM
That's Too Low for me. I still gotta drive on the highway and the 4.10's got me averaging 19-20.
It should get one hella hole shot though. :)

I just hope my babies out of the paint shop by then. :(
If not, we'll team up in the DTR. :D

Ryans PI

I have 3.55s on my '99, and I've only been averaging around 11-12 miles a gallon. I took it to Ford and found out I probably need a new intake. Luckly I have a 7 year unlimited mileage warranty on the intake, so I'm taking it in to be replaced next month.

Lately I've averaged between 150 to 180 miles on a tank.

*****UPDATE*****

I just realized Northgate is south of the I-405 interchange, which the north end crew would take to get there. Doesnt make much sense to go south just to go north again. If the south end guys are meeting at 11am at northgate why not have the north end guys meet around 11am at 128th.
Theoretically we should both hit 405 around the same time, whats your thoughts???

Lets just hook up at 11am at the same spot in the NW corner of the Northgate lot. Saves a some time and an extra stop. The sack time will help me too!

I think it's all about the same. I believe last time we took 90 across but we could do 520 as well. I'll go with the flow if anyone has some druthers.

Yeah I guess we could go south to 90.....doh! 11am at northgate is sounding like the place to be then. I think we would be driving by the 128th exit around 10:30/10:40 or so, assuming 11am at northgate.

As can be seen in this pic.

We should just take I-5 and then I-90. Take exit 164 from I-5 to get on to I-90 and then exit 17 from I-90 to XXX.

What ever you guys want to do...

I really want to do the track thing but, I gotta work tomorrow (3/20). I might be able to get out to a meet of some kind on the 27th. Monthly would be cool. I also like the idea of doing them at Pacific Raceways, at least some of them. Some probably don't want to race their cars, but it's still a cool place to meet when it's open. You know I do. :D It would be nice to get a baseline with the new Lidio tune and then swap out to the 4.56 gears. I would like to find out the difference in ET by just swaping gears. :burnout: :burnout:
