Happy at 300 RWHP with prototype juice, then it got boring again
Edge hooked me up with another 40 RWHP..... happy again
3 months later bored again
Ordered Banks 4".... real happy for about 2 weeks.. then i was again bored.
Edge sends me prototype 'Hot Juice'... happy again for 3 months.... then bored again, dynoed 409 at Diesel Thunder, pretty happy, but bored, but happy again when i won the chev show n shine and highest HP chev, took home a plaque , and 200.00 from bullydog.
Hmmm... 200.00 from bullydog... oohhhh lookie and air intake from AFE....NOT! gotta have the programmer and STACK THE JUICE!
Power pup arrives at Wes's house, we stack it, I am happy again and getting rubber in 3 gears! Dyno at PDR at 544.3 RWHP, really happy all is good
4 months later tranny will not hold the hot juice, DTT installs transgo, me very happy, edge sends me another 45 RWHP and an attitude controller!!!! WOW MAXIMUM HAPPY NOW.
4 months later the transgo that supposedly holds 600 RWHP dies....and takes C1 C2 C3 and C4 out.... total bummer
4 months after that, i ask me slef slef...weren't we gonna stop at 400? slef says yes, but you went over so we only stop at an even number.
DTT is then ready for their trans upgrade... been smiling ever since, BUT really unhappy, because my pyro must be broken... no way can i be over 2000F?
PDR VanAAken Tuned by Mark 'stoopid' box... 550.5 RWHP.. OMG!
Ahh well... next bomb...TURBO! then we will stop if we hit exactly 600 RWHP.

That, Ramen Noodles, and a healthy diet of beer will get you through
college. . . or the school of hard knocks! Actually I always
found the Kraft was a bit pricey, always went with off-brand.
About half the price, and if you're half-lit, you can't taste the
difference anyway. . .



Dennis

No......you buy the delux Kraft that way you can buy 3 cases of the stuff and you dont have to have Milk and butter on hand. I had to lay off the ramen noodels for all the salt. Not that I have a worry about sodium but I finnaly relized that waking up a couple times a night thirsty enough to drink water outa the dog dish wasnt from the beer dehydration, it was from all the damn ramen noodels. Eating a pound of bacon for dinner will do that to ya too BTWhttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley2.gif For a minute I was worried that i was drinking too much beerhttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley3.gifhttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley2.gifhttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/hihi.gif

Heck, all the power adders are only for 'fuel economy reasons'


But i am bitterly disappointed..... for the amount of power adders i have on there the truck should be making its own fuel by now right?http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/hihi.gif


At least it would help to pay for tireshttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley18.gif and turboshttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley18.gif

Wonder who has the record for low tire milage? I bet you got the record for air squashers.

Anybody want to buy a 2002 motorcycle that has very few miles on it??http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley5.gif

Naww, just means some mornings are worth staying in bed. Other mornings are like Coyote Arm. And then there is Worlverine Arm.


*L* Wolverine Arm same as coyote arm, but after ya chew thru it you 'mark' it so nobody else can use it either and then kick dirt over the offending appendage and the 'trap'http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/hihi.gif

I've heard of Coyote and double coyote(you know, you chew off the other arm so it dosnt happen again) but never wolverienhttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley5.gif

And more than a few 'Earthmuffins' http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/hihi.gif (granolas or whatever y'all call em over there Eh?)

I figured out long ago that a high salt intake was the only way I could
keep my blood pressure high enough to push it through all my clogged
arteries.

And the beer thinned it right?

Not if you drink Guinness!

Guiness and irish carbombs give me the worse case of beer goggles thoughhttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley23.gifhttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley24.gif But they shure are tastyhttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/hihi.gif

True juice, here in wisconsin, there are women that have a nice a$$....a crack.....and another nice a$$!!!

Not if you drink Guinness!


Guiness is good!(Stout)


McKewans' is stronger (Scotch Ale)


But tell me why we only get the Stout in North America and not the other 5 varieties of Guiness?

One of the great mysteries of the modern world.

Beer. It's what's for dinner.

WOW.... for a minute there i thought i might have a beer consumption problem.


Thanks to Philip i see that it is actually my sodium intakehttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley36.gif





Last I checked Na had nothing to do with horsepower or ft/lbs. BUT beer consumption definately leads to buyin HP off the net after midnight. Thanks vendors. I wish my puter had a brrreathalizzzerrr/http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley11.gif

...... just wait, it's only the beginning of winter..Juice will be locked up for quite some time. We will probably get a new turbo out of it as well as "Guicegrips" (the Novel) by spring. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley36.gif


Anybody want to pitch in to show we care? Maybe we can get enough "ale" in the bucket to send him some smashed corn?....it's food for thought...http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley36.gif speaking of ale..... may I have anodther?

Back to my tofu and bean sprouts and herbal tea now...

Tofu and bean sprouts? you coming out of the closet or something?http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/hihi.gif


Sheesh, with winter coming i guess that means my turbo should be safe for a few monthshttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley2.gif


These Traction King snow tires are great in the whitestuff, but far too soft for pavement driving. If it's not turbo bark, it's tire bark. Sometimes both at oncehttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley18.gif


Is VanAAken and Edge in cahoots with the tire manufacturers?

Juice - the only way a turbo is safe from you is if you take it off and
bury it in your yard somewhere....then build a house over top of
it....THEN, it might be safe.....My guess is you'll blow another one
this winter thinking your truck is a snomobilehttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/hihi.gif

LMAO run in N/A? Barked my turbo again tonight about 4 times.... something about wet roads, soft tires and RFTTF on 'stoopid' setting. The thing is , no lifting at all, just kept it pinned thru all 5 gears..... darn little IHI is behaving like a chiuaua with an attitude problem. I am beginning to think that i will set my Banks Big Head for 24lbs initial lif to try try try to combat the situation. geez either that or go back to the stock Wastegate actuator...... I have killed a turbo with a Banks actuator, but i really don't feel like 'Banks Blowing' this one.


POS!..... time for a Microswitch controlled TIAL BOV or a recombinator on the same circuit. I hate BOMBING. But i can't seem to stop myself.


Time for a Guiness

Just thought I'd beat everyone to the California jokes and pretend to be a clean living, sane driving, teetotaling health freak or something. You know, out here in Granolaville, "juice" is a healthy drink that comes from fruit...

jonb,


ya got all the words right.... just mixed up the meaning a little.


We have Juice not fruit.


Juice comes from Bean Nuts. And Bean Nuts is about as healthy of a STFU drink you can have.http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley36.gif

PRITJ!


It's all good.... this winter i might spend some time in my garage... see what i can JB weld, ductape and hotglue together.

Don't forget baler's twine.

I'll let you know!

Just use explosive bolts, Juice. Wire them up to a switch activated by the wastegate at a set PSI limit...that way you can blow the turbo away to safety before you destroy it.

Tom


On second thought, that wouldnt work, either. You'd have to have a hole in your hood, or a trap door or something..... http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley29.gif

LMAO!....a Turbo Eject Handle..... Not a bad idea!


Have it installed in the RIO's seat!

Crank your wastegate way back and get some NAAAAWS for your extra air duties. Be cheaper than buying turbos and you would probably be the casue of the used Ebay turbo market to drop out, thed be selling for pennies on the dollar if you quit gobbling all the usable ones up. You'ld be cool then too, and get you some of those cool stickers.


I had me a few of them MCEWEANS or how ever you spell em. Very tasty.....untill I started wondering whay I was copping a buzz already, looked at the bottle and they are something like 9%http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley3.gif Cant have many of them dudes and remain standing

LOL, i know i am helping the Ebay market on turbos, but i am down to my last one so i am gonna chill a bit. I have paid anywhere between 50.00-250.00 per turbo strange thing was, my 50.00 turbo was the best of the bunch! NOS.... if i do not see anything about a turbo soon i might have to do it.


As far as McKewan's go, yup, 9.6% per bottle... i challenge anyone to drink a 6 of these and say they aren't feeling a buzz.... but they go down so darn smooth.

What do I get if I can do it? I've been practicing for years, you know.

Whew......if you can kill 6 of em without feeling anything then I'll buy. The price of the road trip might not be worth the price of the free booze though
