Zippy Tuning Gtg, Chicago Area June 20,21,22nd


Recommended Posts

Fun weekend.....for the most part..... Finding out my truck was running on 7 cylinders or less sucked. It was so bad that I ran a stock time with a supercharged plus many more modded truck so that sucked. Zippy got it tuned to a 13.2 so that was okay, but I could tell theres alot more to get so that sucked. Plus I need to get new injectors, plugs, and wires.....so that sucks.... Got my new spindles on so that was good. Couldnt get the spare off to drop the hitch so I couldnt get the shackles on so that sucks. Got the front Alumasports on so that was good. But they werent bleeding right so that sucked. Couldnt get the rears on because of the hitch so that sucked. And then me and Brent ran outta time so that sucked.......So lets picture this.....My truck going down Interstate 80, with a 2/0 drop, screetching $2000 brakes because they werent getting any fluid, exhaust popping a bit because something is still not right with the truck.....my remote to my dvd player wont work, and the screen in my truck did something funky and went to vertical widescreen mode. Other then that it was lice seeing everyone!!! lol :jester: :jester:

The Bonjie talked to wifey.. sometime in late July, or maybe august.. BonjFest!!!!!!

anyone up for it?? work on trucks is approved, but peeps may have to bring aux tools as im not as well equiped as b-rent, but i have a 2.5 garage for work.

I dont have hptuners so I cant offer tunes, so I guess it would be a hardware only fest... plus great food...

what do ya think?

I want to thank you all for the great time, espeacially Chris for letting me peer over his should the entire time (what a phenominal truck!).

It was a pleasure to meet the rest of you and look forward to the next get-together.

 

I managed to snap a few shots as I was leaving the Hotel:

Gas mileage was much better thanks to Zippy! averaged about 15.5 mpg & ran much cooler with the new stat.

The HIDS are awesome! much better night vison than the Silverstars (plus they just look tits!) -thanks for doing the install!

... and the wife says the quicky you gave her in the truck "was all for show and over much too quickly, as expected!!!" hehehe

I will be keeping in touch with everyone, thats for sure. -Speaking of which I am allready missing the Bonjie!

and where are all the photos he took with his fancy night-vision tripod camera? :jester:

 

Chris, you have my number if you are ever Nebraska-way or are in need of some Molex connectors / terminals.
