Ok so there going to respray the car from the front doors back.should i just press the point to do the whole car in fear of color mismatch die to sun etc i mean there going to do everything but the fenders and hood would that make sense?i just dont want to look down the side of the car and see where it has been sprayed
I was thinking (more guestimating) that 9.0-9.5 is the range I want to be in for my peak 15 psi boost.
Now running stock compression ratio with lower boost does look appealing as well.......
What this seems to bring to light for me, is that I have more to learn before I decide on engine/SC.....
I do know that higher boost means potential for Header damage, which requires more money in headers, it will also wear the Supercharger faster, and alongside that, the higher boosting superchargers are more expensive.
So I'm thinking 10 PSI of boost is more reasonable. Easier on the wallet, Supercharger, and intake/exhaust system. Also, my top end will remain stock for a decent time and as such only so much air will be able to get in anyhow.....
Dunno. More to learn I guess. I think I'm really better following your guys suggestions of getting the SC kit first and boosting this motor. Just being careful with it while I learn more and prep for the engine build/purchase.
600cc bikes are typically labeled as girl's bikes because of their lower power output from the small engine, and the bikes are also smaller and sit lower, making them easier to handle for someone short, like a girl, for example.

Scared very scared i dont know crap about paint and such so i have to trust the devil on the outcome but they did do a really nice job on the inside and engine detail even got that coffee spot gone and they even cleaned the splash panels and dressed them
I can understand that, considering the car isn't cheap.

I plan on having this car for the next 10+ years i dont want something thats going to peel or flake five years down the road or fade and look mismatched i mean i caint tell good paint from bad unless its something like fisheye or orangepeel
Well this is tough for me to admit, and I'm having a hard time believing it myself, but I figure to try this first on an internet forum full of ppl who don't have a real direct impact on things here......
Put me on the Mr. Brett and GH17 list for the next few months.... too many coincidences going on right now and I have to be mentally prepared for what could happen......

One of the dumbest things i have done in a while was sell this thing last year, I have always been huge into bikes and if i could stop sinking money into my car id like to buy another one over the winter. Some scary **** boiling the rear tire off at 100 plus miles per hour, Loved every minute though. Bike made 172 wheel hp and 232 with a 60 shot of laughing gas
My buddy has that bike. He didn't buy bigger for that fact that it's more than enough to kill yourself in 3 secs flat from hitting the throttle. Hauling on the hwy is dangerous enough. If he gave himself even more power he's going to use it haha.

smh... so a local just made a thread saying hes up for trading parts because he will be getting rid of the car, smart alec posted this 1hr ago, and is getting rid of the car tomorrow.... smh... after ive been telling dud for months id trade... why make that status now?
Thanks man, It took me two winters to get it to that point, I finally got it perfect and then sold it, Seems to be a common mistake with me lol. No muffler on that thing either, straight dump right out the header, Use to melt sneakers on the regular from popping flames
i agree... most i would go is the GSXR 750 burnt orange... but i dont think there is any such "girly" bikes unless thats something ppl use on bike forums, i have a friend with a 600 thats crushing modded 1000's... dont ask me how... but i know the fewest lbs shed on a bike is night n day difference
LOL at least you guys have a CHANCE of it turning out the way you want it to...
I'm a daddy in January
...but we've been married 3 years and were sorta starting to plan it, so it's not really a surpris *that* it's happening, just that it's happening *now*, that's all
I have never seen that before unless the 1000 has an extremly bad rider mod. 600's rev a couple k higher than the 1000's but they dont have the torque. Its like taking a b18 integra and racing a modded 6mt Maxima. Even though the teg can shift at 8k it's not going to make a ***** worth of difference. I have owned a 600 and a 1000 and it's a world of difference even stock for stock.
Lol. Considering I'm pushing 140lbs soaking wet, I'm fine riding what's considered a girls bike.
Nice delivery on that, t_behr. Made me laugh.
I don't know bikes at all. Not one bit. But this takes a nice picture.
You know, if you turn around backwards on this bike seat, it would look like you're riding down the road with a 2 foot erection.
