Thanks to Hollywood

I just wanted to give a big thank you to Hollywood for the help he has given me with some tunning recently. I went to shop that is involved here on the boards for some tunning and had a pretty bad experience . After i had the problems i talked with Hollywood and he offered to see if he could help me get it sorted out. Hollywood spent most of 2 days helping me get my car all tunned up and running good. We made far more power than the shop was able to make out of the same parts. I have never met Hollywood and i can tell you he is a very good guy and will do what ever he can to help a total stranger. Thanks again Hollywood if you ever need some carpentry help let me know i will make a trip your way to return the favor. Ryan Magelsen

Now I wonder if the original shop that tried to tune the car will chime in about this. Hit me up this weekend as I want to go for a ride in it. I think I am about to start ordering parts to hold onto but my first order is going to be some slugs and rods.

Can't wait to see the buildup. Will be nice to see some serious power to backup up the looks of your Evo.

Yeah I have let it go for about as long as I can. What I am waiting on right now is for Fluor to come back with a offer of employment. They contacted me about a position so now the ball is in their court to schedule a interview. If it goes through I have to get the wife a daily driver so I can have the evo all to myself.

Is that last tidbit going to go over well with the wife? (Ryan, you're getting thread-jacked! )

She is fine with it as long as she gets a truck. She is a truck girl. Now the only thing I have to convince her is that I want to get a diesel.

It will still be a while before the evo makes anymore power as I want to go about this car a bit different than I did with the Talon. It sucked having the ability to make big power with the Talon but not having the rods to hold it. This time the rods and pistons will be first and then I will decide if I want a bolt on or if I will go back with a t3/t4 setup. Which brings me back around to I need to go for a ride in Ryans car. Downside is I don't know if a bolt on will allow me the power I know I will want to make in the end.
