Shannon, that Ford "black blower" option is definately on my to-do list. We'll see if the planets align again & if they do, I'll invite you to the party. :thumbsup:

Isn't it something marvelous to see when a "stock" 03 Cobra Vert makes 613 at the tires with the A/F falling off the chart pig rich :-D Okay so it's not entirely stock... but it is just a bunch of bolt-ons :thumbsup:

I wish that I could have put down some bigger numbers... not that the ones going up on the screen were weak though. I had my goal set when I left that morning to come down that I wanted to see 650 at the wheels on race gas... but it wasn't meant to be. I at least got one of the problems fixed yesterday with the flucuating MAF... I borrowed a friends Steeda kit for a few days and that pretty much fixed it. I should have a JLT cold air kit with a 9" filter in the fenderwell in a few weeks on the car ;-)

I forsee the planets aligning around April this year... and the black supercharger option will be on it's way. Don't hesitate sending me a message saying you need some help with the blower finding it's way on the car :-D

It was a pleasure meeting you and everyone else... and thanks again to Linn and Rick for coming down to tune some cars. I appreciate your help again on "contorting" yourself to get the chip out... and everything else.

:beer:

The pleasure was all mine! I found out today that one of the UMC members present was filming for us but something went Tango Uniform with the camcorder... no footage. Wasn't a typical dyno day but I suppose with the various types of tuning challenges/configurations facing Rick there were bound to be a few hiccups so it was a typical tuning day. Always a pleasure working with Amazon Racing :thumbsup: Rick & Linn hung around until RiffRaff04's Terminator was breathing again on Monday, too. You guys rock! :rockon:

Hey Guys,

Decided to finally join the forum instead of just lurking all the time. Had a great time meeting everyone Saturday and I am looking forward to the Jackson event on the 26th. Sorry that we had to leave before the Hooters round up, but we had a long drive home.

I want to thank Rick and Linn for going above and beyond to make sure pretty much everyone got their tune and pulls. I also want to thank Mike (17 PSI) and Denis for showing us a much shorter route home and for the opportunity to check out that very nice TT C5.

No problem man, i've got the original higher quality ones if you'd like them at some point as well. I would have liked to have gotten more video, but I had a much better time talking to everyone than watching the cars which is a bit of a change for me. Next time i'll try to do a better job though ;) Btw man, what's the scoop on your car now?

BTW D2 (RiffRaff).. car sounded good in vids, Bones, Nice pics..once again! Still am undecided on whether or not i want to keep the Predator or get the XCalibrator. Oh and for you that don't know who i am... i have the lil ol black GT... with like i said... lowest HP of the day... at 248 RWHP... oh well though.. still had fun!!

Awesome deal man! I'm really glad they made good for all of you guys. I had a question about if I got a chip for my car but I never really got to talk to Rick.

Tony, I'm very impressed with your numbers bub, can't wait to see what she'll do in the 1/4!

Bout time Tony that you came out to play!! As I told you, I love my predator! Just think, when you get that twin turbo set up, all you will have to do is just hand it over to the master ( Rick at AR) and let him work his magic! No more worries about tuning!!

The guys around here are all pretty cool. I've been around for quite a while, since when I had my GT actually. Always a good source of information!

Welcome aboard Hutch! See you the 26th! Sounds like you guys had a nice trip home.
FatTony, no need to gloat on being #1 :poke:. Glad you're here.
