Did my first mods tonight. IX bov, winter wheels & snow tires, shifter base bushings and short shifter. I'm VERY pleased. Car feels better with the IX bov. Shifting is great. Throw is not as short as the B&M on my DSM but it's better then what it was.

IS ANYONE HIRING FOR PART TIME? K1tt3n5 needs a job as of January 19th. Let me know please.
Don't most/all aftermarket BOV surge under partial throttle?

The IX diverter valve is the only one I suggest running unless you have a big turbo and/or running lots of boost. All the other's have issue's whether its flutter or stalling...

Facebook is for chicks.

does it have to be a wooden bat or metal? I don't have a bat but I have lots of pipes. I dont want to have to spend any more money on anything that can be a DIY project. I can save and spend that money on bills lol !

Anything round would work. Its getting proper heat to the paint so that it doesn't crack is the tough part. We should just all chip in and rent a roller. I've seen them for $50/week + $250 safety deposit, in case some bastard decides not to return it.

I believe KHC has one. Maybe we can tal kto Petey about renting one.

I was joking about the baseball bat although people do use that method.. A-BOMB has a guy that does it for like 75 bucks, same guy that did his car..

someone at r/t tuning was telling me the ghetto way to roll fenders was to stuff the wheel wells with tons of newspaper and have a bunch of fat people jump up and down inside the car.

Pretty much everything. I've held jobs from owning a Car Detailing business to reffing at a paintball place. I would prefer to be at a shop doing something. But an office job is fine with me as well. I type well typically.

How about chef at the local clown-face burger joint?

BTW, who made the facebook group?
