It looks like the kit should be together in a week or so.
I have had a few members, show interest in being involved, during the install.
Would anyone else like to be there, as the kit is installed?
Keep in mind, it most likely will take, more than one day.I am thinking SAT/SUN.
The install will take place at Dynopros(vendor on MM.net) in Fox river Grove Il.
RT. 22(Halfday rd.) & Rt.14 (Northwesthwy).Anyone else wanna' stop in and lookie see? :cool4:

My brother-in-law lives in Elgin and I have notified him of the pending installation. This guy is a serious car-junkie, so don't be surprised if a guy named "Tom" shows up and says "Anybody here know Chuck and Claude?":D

Well the Kit made it back to Chicago,unscathed, but their is something seriously peculiar, about the driver.
Seems he has an overwhelming urge to tear open it's contents and begin installing.:P
Seriously, I can't be there on Saturday. I have a wedding to go to.
I am trying to think of the best time to begin, and impulse and logic are wrestling over it.:stooges:

Great times last night. It sure does look pretty under the hood. I'll be there tonight after I get off work. Hopefully no rain so we can go for a spin when it is finished.

This so cool....it's fun reading about yet another Marauder growing some wings. And not the kind the ricers have either. ;)

Well I'm home a bit dissapointed, that we did not finish.
The good news is, the stuff that is left, is easy.
We got a bit sidetracked, with social kebitsing and stuff!:P
I did take a few shots.
I will try and get them up soon!
Thanks to Chuck again !
He carries the install manual wherever he goes!:help:
I hope I can pass along some Install help, to my Marauder Brothers Too!
A big thanks to Kris, (Marauder03) again for helping.
Dude, your Badgeless from Zack is fantastic!:bows:
If you can make it tomorrow, I'll let you flogg it, like you stole it!:burnout:
Just no more cracks about how dirty it is!:depress:
At least this way, I will get to Triple check everything and change over to synthetics before throwing the keys to someone.
Oh yeah, I got to put a new gas filter on, Too.

One of the Neighbors from the shop, who was hanging after work. asked me ,
"Is it going to be real fast?"
I smiled and replied, " This Blower makes the car into a Tire Shreader!" :D
He responded, "Do you have another set , ready?"
Thinking to myself, "Maybe I should go with, if I let him drive it!" :confused:
Thanks for all the replies! :rasta:

Another good night Brad. At least tomorrow it will be done, and then you can go tire roasting. I"ll stop by if possible, would love to go for a ride. I might have some other stuff going on I'll see. I'll give you a call tomorrow when I find out.

Just becareful on who might throw the keys to. Remember the Trilogy Open House. Give instructions on how to drive before they leave. Bradley, see ya this weekend.

Oh yeah, I got to put a new gas filter on, Too.

That's a good idea. :coolman: I had to replace mine at 23,000 miles. I felt something holding the car back at WOT, and after i replaced the fuel filter and changed the sparkplugs, everything was fine again. But seeing is how the plugs looked perfect, my guess is that it was the fuel filter since it did have 23K on it, and Ford recommends it be changed every 24K miles.

I also think that what Bigslim said is a good idea. Some people are so used to having to hammer the gas pedal around a tight turn just to break the tires loose that they don't realize how hairy things will get if you do that around a tight turn with a supercharged Marauder. So some people need to be told to stick with straight aways for full throttle bursts and burnouts.
