[Yaj Yak]

There was a car coming, I didn’t want to be standing on some country corner like a hobo that got kicked out of somebodies car.

so yeah, hiding in the corn is definitely less creepy.

I reverted to my 19-22 year old mindset. If a cop came I figured mike would run for it and I’d take off running through the corn

corn is a lot harder to run through than it was 20 years ago

shit's tight as fuck now.

 

[DanJ]

I was going to say the corn was looking real healthy. I was impressed for how dry it’s been lately.

 

[Mook]

Weather still looks good tomorrow....could try the mt dew special

 

[DanJ]

Hmmmm I do have a couple tank sprayers in the garage. How does that work? Spray it down around noon and let the sun bake it in?

 

[Mook]

Just pour a bunch on the ground and drive through. Instant traction.

Probably.

 

[DanJ]

Seems like you’d just have wet tires if you couldn’t put some heat in it.

maybe get one of those torches like GLD has to cook the mountain thunder in.

Damn, running stout. Talked to my neighbor and he just got his upgraded hybrid turbo that is just bigger than your stocker.

I told him and his other guys to join. They are all EQT stage 2-3 now with upgraded turbo's. GTI's and two R's.

Hope to get them out. I mentioned the meet.

 

[Mook]

They should haul good. Rs are hitting high 10s on the Vortex with fuel.

 

[BS ISF]

Yeah he is starting with 93 to start. Then full E85.

These cars amaze me. I am really digging FBO, fuel and small sail and weeee. impressive every time.

 

[Mook]

Upgrading fuel isn't cheap if you wanna do it right for corn. But the gains are definitely worth it.

 

[BS ISF]

Yeah just talked and he was hesitant and i told him if your gonna get into it then just bite the bullet. Worth It!!!

Maintenance day over at DanJoy's. Nothing major or really that important.

Ran the boost tap for my p3 gauge so now it will read the full psi and not stop at 22.6. Easy install, just nice to have a second pair of hands to pull the vac line through and zip tie ends.

Cleaned the filter and wiped down the intake. My engine bay is GROSS. Its in dire need of a cleansing. Maybe this weekend. But probably not.

And then I took a shot at the grocery store and edited into what I think is a cool pic.

The end.

good god man my engine bay doesnt look that bad and I have dust storms daily out here

 

[Mook]

I haven't cleaned it since owning it. Alot of that looks like pollen or some shit. Maybe I'll fux with it tomorrow.

 

[DanJ]

That edit came out great.

 

[Intel]

Seems like the Ryobi 63 dollar wonder sprayer could fix that engine bay. Nice shot!

 

[DanJ]

I would use a 39.99 Ryobi electric leaf blower to dry it also.

I know some will be upset, but removed the rear R badge while the car was getting lipstick put on for tomorrow. I like the way it looks. I know others wont. Pardon the messy garage, that'll be my winter project.

Nice 1.8t you got there.
