No more waiting, no more dreaming...The time has finally come. Carfixer will be installing my Trilogy #126 on Friday the 14th. I know its kinda short notice but anyone is welcome to attend the install. I will arrive on the West Coast around 2:00-3:00 pm and hopefully have the install done by midnight, and start burning up my tires....
Im looking forward to the long drive home across Alligator Alley:banana:
If you want to attend just reply here or just show up at Claude's place.

Congrats, Rob. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy and you couldn't be in better hands. Visited with the mighty Carfixer on Sunday as he gave up his only day off to work on my car. I am still only about 60% of my usual bs and pizz and vinigar. If I can get just a little better I will be there for the latest stripping of the street. If not I will be here smiling widely knowing what a blast your trip back across the Alley is going to be. All the best. Dennis:D

IS IT FRIDAY YET!!! ??????
The wait is driving me nuts. Im contemplating driving over to the West Coast now to greet my Trilogy Kit with open arms. Am I crazy or has anyone else felt that way. I wont be able to sleep for the next few nights but im sure it will be well worth the wait.

I don't know if I'll come but it's nice to hear you finally got all the parts in the mail and ready to install Ghost. Hm, just thinkin' outloud here but I wonder if you could get a delear to install the s/c kit for 3x as much as Carfixer would charge you just so it wouldn't void the warranty? j/k That could never happen! Have fun.

I had my kit, widened wheels and Nittos shipped to Florida well before the install. Talk about anticipation! You have the best crew in the world waiting for your install. These guys would give you their boost gauge if they had to..... wait a minute, they did. After my perfect install, my boost gauge did not function properly, without hesitation, Claude pulled his out of his car and put it right on the A pillar. There is no limit to the professionalism and generosity of these really cool cats!!!:beatnik:

Guys, the more the merrier. Come on down.
It appears that it may be a 2 install day. We will be starting on the first one in the morning and Rob's in the afternoon.
Looks like 2 fresh sets of burnouts in front of the house on Friday!!

Let me guess, your productivity rate at your employer this week is about, uh 2%?
Good luck and enjoy. Know how you feel when it comes to toys. :)

Cool to hear that your getting S/C'd Rob. Welcome to the S/C world of boost. Would love to be able to come over to Claudes with you guys. But it is my 33 wedding anniversary on the 14th and my wife would absolutely forbid me to do car stuff on that day.....Gee after that many years you think she would cut me a little slack :dunno: . Now I have to take some of my car mod funds and go buy her something really nice:lovies2: so I can get my new posi/axles/CA's/Baers installed. And then there is that forged motor build.... Best to keep her real happy...:nworthy: ...you guys understand...

Ditto Tom,
18 years for us on Friday. She still doesn't know about the LSD, MMC Drive shaft, Tailshaft and the MM Airbox in the garage! Then there's the tuner . . . Better think of something really great for momma!
Happy anniversary Mr. and Mrs. A. You guys have a great time Friday. I will make one of these!!!

I keep reading these kinda posts and I can't wait to get my kit just so I can finally meet some of you guys. I'm thinking that's gonna be more rewarding than the Trilogy.

I'm as excited as you are! This stuff never gets old with me. I'll be there first thing in the morning, and won't be heading home until they're both done, and I've downed a few cold ones.:beer: For those of you who have been there with us, you know what it's like. A lot of times we don't even meet the customers until the night of the install, then they become instant friends. But, occasionally, we get to do this for people we have a well-established, solid relationship with. It's times like these that mean the most to me.
Now, let's take a moment to review exactly what we're responsible for, shall we? The following are customers that Claude did himself, With me, And with us and Shakes_26, who will be joining us again tomorrow.

Hey Chuck,
It was 75 degrees in Michigan today!!! So there!!! I am tired of you calling me and telling me it's 80 degrees and your having a cold one!!!! FA-Q!
I am glad to hear the installation parties are going strong. Please tell my friends "HI". I wish I could attend one of these. They sound too fun to miss.
If there is anything I can do, please call!
Kit #133 went to Jerry Danger, in Dearborn, from the raffle and we sold kit #134 today. Donna will fill you in the the area the new customer is in.
Claude, Chuck, Mike, Mark, Dennis, Mel, etc. have a great time. Wish I was there!

:rolleyes: We should , he would like that! :rock: Hay Rob! 17 more hours to go before the install begins ! Who is going to bring the Tooth Picks to keep his eyes open? :eek: I have already recieved a phone call advising me of the time check and countdown. Trust me I am counting down every minute, second to the install. I probably wont get any sleep tonight and wont be able to concentrate on work tommorow. Thankfully I have a short day and Im leaving work at 11:00am to be able to leave by 12:00-12:30....I guess I'll have to load up on some energy drinks for the ride home, but im sure that the strong wind blowing in my eyes will keep me awake......
TIME CHECK ANYONE?
Im so exited I think I want to buy another kit just to feel the way I do now again!!!!!!
See you all tommorow

Hay Rob! Today is the day. About 6 more hours before the the install starts. You can still back out.:poke: Why would you want it anyway? :dunno: More gas $$$$, More Money $$$$, More Power= $$$$, Cost of Buying more rear tires $$$$, Widened rims to come $$$$, Custom Tune $$$$, Days at the track $$$$. Think of all the Money you could save ! :twocents: :twocents: :twocents: :twocents: :twocents: :twocents:
