  15. SoCal rollout

    Not sure if you went but yeah just as expected about 15 mins. after getting there the 3 CHP rolled up code 3 lights and sirens and stopped above the lot on the actual freeway ramp which overlooks the Metro Station. Got out their cars, Loudspeaker to leave. Everyone ignored it lol. Watched officer get on his radio. Within 5 mins. of that the Sheriff's helicopter was circling. We scoped out the lot for alternate exits. I made we parked in the 1st space next to that alternate exit in case this went down. So we got out before they started ticketing.

     

    CHP was posted up at 4th and the 10 too waiting for the cruise and were stopping trucks as they could.

     

    Estimated 700 trucks parked at 2nd meet spot at beach. And that was only the ones that were patient enough to wait in all that damn PCH traffic to get in. We left. So I'd say total close to 1200 trucks out there. I think every truck in SoCal was there lol.

    Yeah an MP112 is going to get you a gain of about 100hp to the tire. Not bad for around 2500 which is what they're going for. Just make sure you get a complete kit. Piecing together all the missing parts gets costly.

     

    One other piece of info I always repeat that I don't see covered above is you being an 05 you have the return-less style fuel system. So try and find a Radix that is return-less. You can easily buy the fuel manifold piece to swap out if you buy a "return" style unit but it's a waste of $$. I made that mistake.

     

    Also have a few bucks left over for new spark plugs as you will need a "colder plug" when blown.

     

    Also make sure your kit includes fuel pump. Walbro 255

    Were people getting pulled over left and right?

    Pretty much man. We got there and there happened to be a Sheriff doing paperwork and I guess the Metro Station isn't Sheriff jurisdiction. I literally watched him look up and radio to someone of what was going on. Within 20 mins. 3 CHP's showed up. 1 on a motorcycle and 2 Crown Vics.

     

    I mean every single truck there is illegal in some way so I'm not sure exactly sure for what they were pulling people over for. Tint, sounds too loud, exhaust, no seatbelt, tags, no idea. I did notice everyone pulled over did have current tags so IDK.

     

    If that goes down just do what we did. Watch for all 3 to have just stopped someone and leave when they are busy. I was fine. Didn't get stopped.

     

    The CHP literally just cruised around the lot stopping people as they drove through. Maybe they were ticketing for cruising. I didn't feel like asking one the guys who got ticketed what it was for. When you are at these things you are on alert ya know. Only in the mood to talk with your close friends and watch your truck for thieves.

    I will be riding with Travieso in his Tahoe. We will be there. Starting detailing Fri night in preparation. Went last time. It's super busy but this time they are doing an actual cruise instead of a meet only which is smart because by the time the cops show up all should be on their way cruising.
