Brian. Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 REKIII, do you know rao? Lol.. Such a random first post... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REKIII Posted January 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 Yes I know Rao. He swapped a supercharged LS into his e39 5xx and likes to laugh at us M5 guys for messing with our S62's.I sent him a link to the thread, very good guy, well except that he lives in Chicago, but that's only slightly worse than Madison.

Brian. Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 Word, I was thinking, "who the fuck just signs up to say, "is this thing done yet" that isn't even in the state! Madison sucks man.. Don't even get me started.. I'm not a fan of the people here. Other then that, this town isn't terrible. The roads could be smoother, but where couldn't they be!

Rowleym Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 Thread jack- Madison is the best! I love that place. You need to come back to green lake and see what a real shitty town is. You are crazy lucky living there compared to this shit hole.- Thread jack end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian. Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 Rowley, I'll be there this weekend to get stuff for my BMW. Then to Oshkosh till wednesday. Madison's not as great as you think. It's so hoodrat infested. I'm not making this shit up. This summer, come stay with me for a week, and you'll realize just what I'm talking about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian. Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 No shit! But the price for my apartment was spot on. So I can't complain! We're moving again in September, or if Wisconsin management doesn't get their shit in gear, we're moving sooner. They're terrible land lords.

REKIII Posted January 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Got up by the car again yesterday. All the suspension is off, which is funny, as it's on a 4 post lift in a seperate area of the shop, so I had to block it up, only way to make it better would have been if I were to find some cinder blocks. Also tore the intake manifold off. The amount of bolts holding that on is just plain stupid. Also took out the cluster and HVAC panel to make some blank off plates for a client, and get my pixels fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B C Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 I have always loved the M V8 intake trumpets. Talk about an inefficient engine though. 8 throttle bodies!!?!?!? My car only requires 1 to get me down the road. /donttazemebro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REKIII Posted January 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Yeah, the trumpets are neat......they are going away though, as is the whole stock manifold.Not only are there 8 tb's they are all uniquly cast. No wonder this car was over the top expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B C Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Custom manifold upstream of the TB's then?!?!?! Should be real interesting for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earl Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Please say FMU velocity stacks!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REKIII Posted January 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Velocity stacks don't make a siginificant difference in forced induction applications. There will be care taken in the airflow and transitions, but there won't be actual stacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian. Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Velocity stacks are awesome as hell. But with it being boosted, theyd do almost nothing, and you wouldn't get the amazing symphony they let bellow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
