You aren't the only one with a set of those paper weights.

Thumbs up

Good thing I held off on buying that FPRed. I would've been sick right now and throwing up all over just seeing the results of the FPBlack. Looking foward on seeing more results on 93 pump fuel. Finally I can wrap up this build...

Because they aren't for sale yet!

Only 3 people are getting them...Urkel got one for Joker, me and hollywood got one.

Me and Hollywood are both on e85, he has a 2.3 stroker too.

Sweet deal! I'm looking forward on viewing more results. The last part of my Evo X build is some what ridding on the upcoming results.

Stop trying to push me into giving you attention. There are plenty of great tuners in North Carolina that you can pay to tune your car.

I'm sorry that your new tune netted you 40 more hp + 14 counts of knock-- I hope it was worth it.

Your 6262 was not brand new-- you got it used-- stop fibbing.

I will not send you free maps.

I will not tune your car.

I will not be bullied into being a nice guy.

I understand you needed to move to NC and a "long distance relationship" with your tuner doesn't make economical sense for you. If you weren't willing to compensate me for the work/travel, you should feel free to get it tuned elsewhere.


We do not need to communicate any further for any reason.



Back on topic...

The fp black will be back on the dyno very early next week. A quick chat with Amber this afternoon leads me to believe that waiting for the upgraded oil line is "worth the wait".

I have some other bugs to sort out with the car before letting the turbo go to kill mode anyway, so it all works out.


So far my initial impressions driving around town is positive. I think spool-up vs the red is very close-- perhaps 2-400rpm??

I am very happy the spool is close...and very drunk at this time, lol

I find it funny how you east coast guys work...you all used to give me sheeeeet for numbers blah blah blah, now i seem to be on everyone's good side.

Regardless, i don't really give a ****, i care about power/spool of the turbo that i am waiting for. I am happy you guys waited for the oil feed kit, good choice, maybe not a necessity but if Robert thinks it will help then by goly we should use it!

I still look forward to the results big time and am quite happy the spool is where i predicted!

So FP is recommending a built engine for the black again? I was thinking about putting it on with my cams but I still have stock rev limiter and engine. Only difference is cams.
