Sounds good for a Feb meeting, worst thing is I'm very unlikely to be able to make it, I'm switching to weekends at work next week, but I might be able to swing something for that day.

You better be....so far our meets have been dominated by 1st gens....not theres anything wrong with that .

Hopefully Ill get a chance to get intercooled this weekend. These 10-11 hour days of working cattle and hauling hay are killing my evenings.

I know this is going to sound real crazy, but the new chip I've got is a lot better than the Edge Juice I had. The Torque Dog, is real smooth power and the torque curve is just amazing! It's only 65hp and 200#tq but it feels a world of difference than the Edge Juice, and I was impressed with that. And I can still blow enough smoke with it and everyone said I would get nothing lol lol. So I'm happy with it! Gauges are on order. Things are changing a little and I might not be able to make the meet, I have to pick my parents up from DFW airport....unless I can find someone else to do that lol lol.

Oh man, I SO could not get by with that! lol lol. Well my gauges will be in on Monday, so I'll have too long with them just sitting in the box I'll get anxious so I'll go ahead and put them in myslef. Oh then maybe next week I'm gonna head down the street from my place and get the truck dynoed! I'll post results when I do it.

Randy, I might give you a call when I'm going to do my gauges just have a few questions and stuff about them and stuff. I got a fuse block also.

Anyone want to take bets on what my truck's gonna dyno?? I'm gonna guess 675# tq. - I know not anywhere near most you guys, but this is a work truck and so I can't really afford to be pouring money into it and burn stuff up on it, esp. hauling 36k#
