Spotted London...

Some Goofy looking guy with long hair in a maroon FC, was staring at me when I gave him the g'day when I drove by, wondering if he might be on here...

You guys are funny.

I was looking forward to yesterday to finally have some time to clean up a few areas of the fuel map. I had done the best I could but needed someone else to run the laptop, hence the passenger. The real aim of the outing though was to turn the boost dial to 16 and get some basic tuning done before hitting the dyno for some 500+ HP runs. It was a sad day though, since it looks like my brand new HKS EVC 6 isn't actually working. It doesn't increase boost and the car is still running 13 PSI on the wastegate spring.

Ah well, the day was not a total loss because I also tuned my friend's widebody FB with a 6 port engine running a Chinacharger T4B and a Megasquirt. At 10 PSI of Chinaboost it pulls pretty strong. 15 is the target but we need to plumb the boost solenoid a bit differently because even at 100 % duty cycle (Megasquirt boost control) it would only hit 10 PSI. Better then the wastegate spring 6 PSI, but not 15.

Hey aaron I'm sure I have a boost solenoid from an AEM/Haltech/turbosmart (the green one everyone uses) around if you want to try another solenoid

For some reason, I always thought that long haired goofy guy looks like a young Kim Mitchell.
I might be on crack. Wasn't last time I checked though....

I swear I found a Kim Mitchell album and he had Aaron's EXACT hair. There's not too many around who have the same.

Aaron, have you ever shaved your head for cancer? Did a rockstar "escort" the hair to the donation bin?




Not as close as I remember, But I still think there are some similarities.

Nope, I have not had cancer. Actually I have not cut my hair for 8 years.

I meant shaving your head for a cancer fundraiser... 8 years? o.O 4 months and mine would be that long.

To get back on topic, who granted you access to drive around london? did you have a hall pass?
