Claude - YOU'RE the most dedicated Marauder owner I know. You have singlehandedly made more smiles than I can count. You continue to hold your head high regardless of what life throws at you. My friend - one day it will come back to you in Aces and I hope I am there to see it. See you on Saturday. Let me know if there is anything YOU or Paula need.

Steve!! You gotta be here... Just drive the Marauder dammit!!! Everybody gets to sign the lower plenum with a Sharpie. Once again - if you don't wanna drive that far in one day, I live a half mile from CarFixers house. Anyone is welcome to the install. It is a great moment when the car starts up the first time. At my first install - we made a video of a poker chip balanced on it's edge on the running motor. Great times and great people.

Where are the directions to get to Claudes? I guess I'll be the only guy in a Honduh. Oh well.

*Edit, ah I'll probably just take the MM. Oh yes, one quick question, any chance on getting a fuel filter replaced? I just broke 50,000 on my car and it needs to be done. If I bring a replacement with me, you guys think you could help me install it?

Steven, get you ass in the MM and drive over. No rice other than Paula's beloved Toasta. Before you leave go to Mapquest or Google or program your GPS for 18777 Spruce Drive West Ft. Myers, Fl. 33912. Follow the directions.
PS... pack enough sandwiches and twinkies to last 4 or 5 days. I have ridden with you and you do have a special insight on how to get really, really f'n lost. If you run out of food call me. I will tell you where to go. :rofl: Dennis

Dave, the first time you romp on it, there will be a great feeling in the pit of your stomach:D. The ride home will be quite different......You sure can say that^ again! I'll never forget the first drive I had in my Marauder immediately following my completion of the Trilogy supercharger....

it was 3:00am, and after a good initial warm-up, I got it up on a major interstate highway and let her loose! The traffic was almost non-existent, and some guy driving a Toyota Supra dared to challenge me, so I let him have it, and showed him who's car is boss. :D That was my very first "kill" which took place within 30 minutes after I completed the installation.

About an hour after that, I headed home, ad on the way home, I stopped on the street in front of a buddy's house, and left a 100 foot strip of rubber from a dead punch with the factory stock radial tires. I remember looking back in my side view mirror at the oncoming cars that had just passed by me as I was completing the burnout, and how they had to all come to a dead stop in the road, because of the density of the huge smoke cloud that I had left behind, since they could not see though it. :D

You have no idea how bad I "needed" tonight. My faith has been restored. Phone calls to and from Jerry Barnes, Cheeseheadbob [who made it all possible], Defyant, Rick-n-Miami, etc., it felt like you guys were there with us. Times like this re-focus your attention on what it's all about. With all the goings-on lately, I had seriously begun to doubt if it was still worth it.

It is.

Thank you.

I almost bought a plane ticket to fly down and hang out with you guys during the install. I came very close to flying down Saturday abd flying home Sunday. It sounds like Claude and Paula were, there usual, great hosts! Thanks for becoming a Trilogy Motorsports customer. Thanks to Claude, Chuck and Mark for being a great Installation Team and best of friends. Thanks to Cheesehead Bob for being a VERY GENEROUS person in selling you the Trilogy Kit.

It sounds like everyone had a great time!!! I sincerely hope that you enjoy your car with our Supercharger on it. Please be safe.

Now, sit back and sip the Kool Aid slowly! We wll take control of your mind and yor right foot! Do not resist!

Congratulations!
