Thx!
welcome man, i would like to get that Perfect Power piggy back smt6 system. i think it is a very good way to modify your injection timings ... without changing your chip, and the best thing is that you can update the modifications while you are driving with that system if you would have a laptop with you!!!

i need to see its price from malta now and i think that it what will be holding me from buying it

own a 1997 fiat bravo 1600 16 valve (does 500km / 50 liters)

(boy do i regret that)

gf owns a 1999 peugeot 306 diesel does 1100km / 55liters, eat that.

this bike however is the most economic form of transportation, fully renewable fuel cells, the works...

those who wonder what the scenery is? this is where i spent part of my 3 week absence at the boards. place is called 'province des hautes alpes' about 30 clicks from the 'col du galibier'. this particular dirttrack is an old military road going from 800m sealevel to 2650m (col du parpaillon).

No , the links are great, but it turned out that I got a engine with K-jetronic fuel injection, which happen to be completely - mechanical. Not digitALL at ALL .
Got a KingDragon air filter to help the car to breathe a little easier, and that's it for now. Still satisfied with the feeling of the power under my butt. Wife and I consider moving to bigger appartment, so modding the car will wait a little bit...

Still don't have a pic, but working on it

Cheers!

g.l.amour: great scenery on that pic! Only thing I would miss is the sea and scuba diving. And considering that if anybody put me on a bicycle I would probably cough my lungs out, it's better to have a big bottle of air on the back

i'm currently just starting reassembly on my '73 911T restoration (with an '87 3.4L RUF Carrera motor). it used to look like this:



it currently looks like this, lol (at least the chassis, most of parts are in the garage out of view in that pic):



unfortunately 3 years on Michigan's salty roads brought shameful amounts of rust. now i have a phobia of rust (seeking therapy). anyways, if you aren't afraid to see rust, here's the link with pics of what's done so far:

link to my 911 restore

i'll be adding more as i progress, and there's more info on the car elsewhere on my site if you're bored (link in my sig).

01 Ford F350 4x4 4" lift V10

She's plain Jane, a bitch to park and gets a whopping 9 MPG. But its a blast to drive around.

If you look to the left in the background, the 79 red Ford stake bed is what I drove before I got this. Quite a jump

Got me an S-10 4 banger. It runs fine, a little dented(d@mn stop signs, gotta avoid 'em) and it's good for sleeping in(6-12' bed) if you're like me and too cheap to sleep in a motel when the weather's fine.

It's an '02. I'll get a Fabtech lift when the warranty's gone. I just put on some 285 Swamper SSR Radials (MAX that would fit stock, 33.9" tires) and some Rancho adjustable shocks.


Also put in a 100 HP chip and a KFE Stage 2 air intake for the Duramax. It flies even for a gas trcuk it'd be fast. Will turn over the Swampers
