  1. hahaha, I have a freind that lives on McCracken!
  2. I am really glad everything was ok Hot Rod. BTW I had a great time hangin this weekend, see you next year.
  3. I didn't know there was instructions lol. I just think that its not really something for someone who is not familier with transmissions to be installing. If that makes sense?
  4. We just need to give Josh some beer and he will be right on that, I hear that he will work for beer.
  5. No kiddin I wonder what pics the pretty, pretty princess got?
  6. Nice pics Bob. I like the group pic!!!
  7. OH and BTW..hats off to Zippy for a great event!!!!!! Thanks home silce!
  8. Lots of good times and lots of good people, regardless of what you drove or you didn't drive its a great time. Little brew drinking and everyone brought their jokes. We definatly had some fun Saturday night, I mean I woke up under Zippys table in his living room!
  9. You guys can call me anytime too. Me and Zip should be able to find some "action" lol. 616-402-1327
  10. Tee-time is at 8:16, fruitport golf coarse. I got the tee-time set for a 4 and a 2 some. If we need more spots let me know. Also I can get directions to the coarse and depending on how many people are playing Dr. Phil might make a trip out there too and then he can drive you to the coarse or lead the way from the shop. Let me know. TJ
  11. From Gage Chevrolet to Dr. Phil's as per requests. US 31 north to Spring Lake exit right over draw bridge. Continue on M-104 east to Dr. Phil's auto (about 5mi). Addy is 14747 Cleveland st. Spring Lake, MI 49456
  12. No I would not do this. The factory regulator will work just fine with properly sized injectors and pump. You have a 2003 I see so you should have no issues with the factory regulator. Your MAF will work fine for the radix setup no need to even go 2bar.
  13. It seems as though a 2800 vigilanti works very well on the Radix trucks. Also the trailblazer converter will have differnet flash rpm's for every different power level. This holds true for most converters. Not so much with a Vigilanti though. We have seen Radix trucks with the Radix supplied tune with a 3.3" pulley flash at about 2950. With tuning and moretiming in the bottom you can expect to see as much as 3100-3200. With a smaller pulley like a 2.9" or 3" we have seen them flash in the 3300-3400 range with a little tuning. May it be noted that the flash speed will seem to be higher while waching the logs. This is mostly due to tire spin. Seems we run into that with a good tune and converter on the radix trucks lol. Nitrous will greatly increase the stall speed on a converter. This is where anti ballon plates and such come in. With such a crazy torque spike the stall speed can increase by 200-2000 rpm or more. I have seen a conveter flash about 3400 on motor alone then turn into a 5200 stall on a 170 shot. So pick your n20 converter accordingly As far as a ATI, Vortech or any centrifical supercharged truck goes a little looser converter should be considerd as boost does not come on as quickly as a Radix or turbo. The looser converter will help these vehicles to get out of there lazy range where no boost is being made. Remeber it will make less power down here then w/o the blower. It takes some hp just to spin the blower when it is not making boost. Hence the lazy feeling w/o the right converter. All this should be considered when making a fored induction/n20 choice. As a tighter converter would be the choice on the street for drivability and fuel econimy....Not to metion the tighter stall will equall lower trans temps. This is gonna be a great thread Erik!
  14. Nice I like what you did there Erik, as far as n20 goes.... The good: 1. Most power per dollar (Nothing even comes close) 2. Instant tire shredding torque 3. Easy install 4. Tuning is almost not even required for a basic kit 5. Does not clutter under hood appearance 6. No limitation on the power potential other then what the drivetrain can handle. 7. New controller technoligy allows full progressive control in every gear. Takes away the punishment of just a hard all at once hit. 8. Very safe if set up correctly and used in the right hands 9. Power level adjustments are as easy as a jet change 10. There is no lack of nitrous knowledge available to the people, it has been used for quite some time The bad and the ugly 1. Bottle refills are expensive over time 2. Power is not always there, only when the bottle is full and has good pressure(950-1050) 3. Power level adjustments are as easy as a jet change...too easy to get greedy with power levels. 4. Dangerous in the wrong hands(look to number 3) Use and install. 5. Lean backfires that take out the top half of the motor. Usually caused by a poor install, wrong length of line from the n20 noid to the nozzle.... 6. Also the occasional sticking noid. This can cause a melt down when the nitrous noid sticks open. Very rare and is usually a installation problem or a faulty noid.
  15. I think it would be cool to do everything he ever wanted to finish her up. then bring it to shows across the nation as a tribute. I have seen it done before, nothing cooler.
  16. What nitrous kit did you buy???? Your killin me. TJ
  17. Yes NX on everything. Even your lawnmower lol . NX direct port with a standalone fuel system and a NX digital maximizer progressive controller. Just cannot go wrong with using way too much n20.
  18. Direct port with a progressive gets my vote. Nitrous junky.
