I think I have. I see lots of blue sevens. I'm in a red '86 with 17's. Might have seen me? Sometime Marcus and I were going to get together. You outta join us.

 

By the way Marcus, about my six ports,
when i got the racepipe about 5 months ago, i didnt even realize the 6 ports relied on exhaust backpressure to work, so i blocked off the backpressure pipe thinking it was an egr pipe, and didnt really notice a difference in the powerband, but JUST THIS MONTH i've realized why.

One of the previous owners was nice enough (or performance minded enough) to hook them up to the air pump line via a T valve and some hose. I havent taken apart the valve system they installed yet, so i'm not sure
exactly how or when it works. I'm assuming it DOES work though, because dyno graphs show a SMOOOOOTH very linear powerband,

or who knows, maybe i'm losing alot of power because of his setup, i'll take it apart one of these days and find out!

 

Thatd be cool to get together, i'd like to see your cars, i havent had a chance to get a good look at many other 7's,
if you want, we could hook up your cars to this thing I have called a "road dyno" It measures horsepower, and works pretty well, gives you a grapph just like chassis dyno.

 

Cool! I'd like to check out that road dyno. Get a ruff estimate of HP!

 

Sounds like a plan Taelem. Matlock and I have were gonna meet sometime...I had this surgery awhile back, but I can finally drive now and I can walk with my crutches (damn annoying!!) so I can get around better than awhile ago. This saturday I'm gonna be busy, but maybe Friday night we could all meet in downtown Olympia, don't know if you guys ever go down there at all, its mostly just a bunch of retards with geo metros and neon lights! But me and my buddy with his 87 sport go down there and BS, will try to get another one of my friends to come with his twin turbo 7. Let me know.

 

That road dyno..is that just like a fancy g-tec? My buddy had one that measure g-force and hp, 1/4 mile time, but didn't have a graph...sounds pretty cool.

 

I'm game! I was down there once, but in my daily beater and know one seemed to talkative or friendly so my buddy and I left.

 

Sounds good man. I'm sure Taelem will be down too. Where you wanna meet at? Whatever is easiest for you guys, I live out on Cooper Pt. Rd. so I'm pretty close to the mall. Just pick a spot, we can meet there and all roll downtown together. 9:30 sound good?

 

I'm out by the Amtrack station! I'm not picky though. I'd say the JCpenny parking lot at around 9:30. Theres never anyone there and easy to find. How's that sound?

 

Yeah...alot of the people downtown are kinda dumbass's..but theres some pretty well set up cars down there and some cool people. All my car friends from North Thurston HS park kinda kiddy corner from the Les Schwabs down there, but we can meet somewhere else like I said and then roll down so we dont loose each other. Oh yeah, I'm still on my probabtion deal from last Halloween, got caught streetracing (stupidst thing I ever did) with my buddy Marlon (with the 87 FC). 10:30 p.m., Halloween night, on Martin Way...how much more young and stupid could that have been. So we got a deal I guess..50 hrs community service and a year w/out getting a ticked for anything 5mi/per/hr or over. So in other words, we both drive damn slow. lol

 

I went to Thurston! So 9:30 at JC's?

 

Damn, thats a ways! Do you live in that development over there, like on the left hand side, right after you go over that bridge? 9:30 JC Penny parking lot sounds good to me. Me and Marlon will be there..my cell phone is 360-790-7183 case you need to get ahold of me.

 

Thats cool..when did you graduate?..I'm a senior over there. This is the first year I actually enjoy school. Period of welding, 2 periods of computers, and 3 periods of Auto Shop!

Yep! It's not bad once I hit the freeway. zoom zoom zoom!

 

Thats cool. I'm gonna get goin though..but if I dont talk to you before Friday, I'll see you then! Hopefully Taelem will see the posts and be there. Later!

 

I graduated 2001. Now it's Pierce Community College and enough studying to make my head hurt. I miss the days of computer class, and TA'ing. You know Mr. Brown, I used to play Duke Nukem with him and my bro, when my bro was the computer admin. Oooo the stories.

 

hahaha! Yup I know Mr. Brown, I have Mr. Moffat for my computer classes. Did you take any Auto Shop classes? I'm in Advanced auto (5 &6 per.) then I have a independent study in there, Mr. Stretch is the man, genius w/anything automotive. So I was a freshmen when you grad. then right? hehe..had good ol' Mr. Cummins that year, man was he quite the guy..goofy bastard.

 

Hey guys, just read the meet info for friday night, and sorry to say I HAVE TO WORK! HOW LAME IS THAT!!
have fun though, i'll catch up with you again some other time.

 

TWIN ROTOR N/A'S CAN MAKE HELLA POWER. BUT NOT WITHOUT A STAND ALONE. THE BOLT ONS WILL HELP WAKE UP THE CAR ON THE TOP END, BUT THE TUNING WILL PACK ON BIG TIME HP. AS MUCH AS 210-220 IS NO PROBLEM FOR A STREET CAR. IT WILL RUN CLEANER AND STRONGER.
