RE the food thing. I would like to throw out that the DFAC on base is pretty good especially compared to the food court. Or I wouldn't mind meeting up at Sea Scapes. Can't beat beachfront.

A friend of mine in AZ wants to buy my car right now for $20k... Dawn and I trying to decide if we should sell it. I'm leaning toward no. I think I want to do some more rounds of mods over time. It's hard to turn down offers out of the blue though.
Round 2 = Bilstein HDs, GT Worx Springs, Sway Bar, camber plates (easy autox setup)
Round 3 = Spoolin up COP, GSC cams (likely S1 to preserve idle), 100 cell cat (so my wife don't complain), bigger TB, a real UICP and maybe a methanol kit. I don't see why that wouldn't give me another 50whp.
NO DEAL... He's talking about cuttin into gym time now. C'Mon Alex back me up I saw you there tonight you know what I am talkin bout. Booooooooo

Evenings during the week seem to be difficult for some. I may be able to make it, but I don't know about the others. If it's an evening get together you desire, then the Saturday after next will be another Tampa Car Meet.
If you want to meet us, you have a better chance doing it one at a time until you met us all...
...other alternative: Wake up early enough to meet us together for lunch... then go back to sleep after lunch!
Having an evening schedule sucks for planning... will you switch back to day shifts at all... or is it permanent night shift for you...?

I should be switching back to dayshift next month or the month after that. I guess I'll just be meeting you guys one at a time lol. I wouldnt mind meeting a couple of you at the tampa car meet if I have off that night.

Yeah, on this dyno would like to have been over 400whp. I'm not exactly thrilled with the result, but the 300 cell HFC might be choking the car. I don't see why the heck it would not do better. It is super fun to drive though... uber responsive, smooth spool up and powerful.
A friend of mine in AZ wants to buy my car right now for $20k... Dawn and I trying to decide if we should sell it. I'm leaning toward no. I think I want to do some more rounds of mods over time. It's hard to turn down offers out of the blue though.
Round 2 = Bilstein HDs, GT Worx Springs, Sway Bar, camber plates (easy autox setup)
Round 3 = Spoolin up COP, GSC cams (likely S1 to preserve idle), 100 cell cat (so my wife don't complain), bigger TB, a real UICP and maybe a methanol kit. I don't see why that wouldn't give me another 50whp.

I like your taste brother. Your round 2 is almost exactly what I will eventually be doing myself, except for camber plates. I like round 3 as well but I think I'm gonna try to stay on 93 until all my "wants" are taken care of then I'll start playin with E85. Good luck with the build.
