Oh, oh, pick me. I am in VA! I have a completely Stock ST minus an AFE drop in and ZFG E50 tune.

Here are my Dragy’s…



Seems pretty good to me…for a mail in tune where somebody else did the work. Pretty sure I am still the only tune only ST to break 12.

I know cars, but there are people that know more than me about pieces of them, and Adam@ZFG is a master at EcoBoosts. Why not work with the best. Sure I could tune mine, but why, when I can work with the best?

You make ZERO sense.

Get your tune ready, and let’s go play. You will lose!

It is amazing how a second or two in a 24 hour day (86,400 seconds) can cause so much discussion and strife.

Yeah, nothing yet. It will be quite some time before it needs a (re)build, but I'll open a thread just in case. Maybe some pics later too. Don't expect any bolt-on, stick-on, or lay-on parts how-to "builds" though. I know, I know, how disappointing...
Hey all, I'll weigh in on the not- a-build project. Just installed Auto Stop Eliminator, but because I don't want to be accused of a stick on, bolt on, lick on or whatever, I completely dismantled it, increased the wire gage size, to expidite the delta signal speed, fed by the HAL 9000 Flux Capacitor interface, additionally added Bluetooth connectivity to my Brain-Wave Analyzer, so now I only have to think about if I want the auto stop-start feature enabled or not. BTW. 100 bucks on UNBROKEN

Yep, it's always easier to pay someone smarter than you to do something you could learn to do pretty quickly if you had the desire. I understand why you think I make no sense. It's because you were trained to depend on others to take care of you. That's ok, until there's someone who actually depends on you. Most contemporary people have never had any real responsibility for someone other than themselves, and most not even that.

However, on the tuning topic, you have no idea what they're doing, but I do. You'll know when I'm ready with mine as I'll post it here.

I can’t wait for your post about needing a transmission after your ham fisted attempt at tuning at 10R60. Even most of the big tuning outfits can’t get a handle on it. I’m sure you’re gods gift to tuning though. Now hurry up so we can all watch Loki drag your ass.

HaHaHaHa!!! Please keep typing. Dude, you prove your idiocy more everytime you respond.

I don’t depend on anybody to take care of me. Plenty depend on me. I have worked in Technology for 20+ years. I have been a high level Sys admin for 15 of those. I have managed hardware teams that support production facilities across the whole east coast. At my previous job, I managed 60K+ User accounts and 250+ Servers across 70+ sites.

I also promise I know more about the modules and how they communicate in a modern vehicle than you are capable of comprehending.

You have no clue. Please bring it. Anytime. PM me a location and time and we can run.

Until then, please go back under the rock you came from.

The communication and "management of accounts" is the easy part home boy. I'm not going into what I do for a living & retirement, but you would work for me. Thanks for trying.

Dude, I do way more than manage accounts!!! Now you are picking and choosing what you are going to be better than. You completely ignored the rest.

I have managed, wasn’t what I enjoyed. I would much rather be doing the work. But I thought having somebody else do the work(managing) was a bad thing. Make up your mind. Do it, or have somebody else do it? I am confused.

Please keep typing. It is entertaining for sure.

I don’t allude to what I do for a living like it is a secret, you also cracked on people for not providing times, which I did. Dude, less typing on here, and go work on your tune. We will be waiting. Until then, you are just typing….with ZERO to show.

Holy shit my ST may run 11's also since I have the ZFG E50 tune, Magnaflow exhaust and Whipple intercooler as well as a constant 40mph wind from the south. I bought the dragy but its still in the box. How am I suppose to stick the dragy on the outside of my front tire again, double-face tape?? Maybe double-faced racers tape?? This thread is funny as shit. Seems to me if anybody does most of the work on his vehicle it is Unbroken.

A drill and some sheet metal screws worked for me. I leave it there all the time. It did cause a little vibration at around 40MPH, but I just had my local tire shop add a little more weight to the other side. All smooth now!

Well for sure ol' broke does a whole lot of swappin' "stuff", but I haven't seen anything actually improved or "better" in any way. It's all pretty much blingy crap that poseurs do when they can't do any serious improvements. I also see that blingy crap is the #1 "build" activity undertaken here. That's all good too for most, but not what I came for. Other than the tuning challenge, there's really nothing here.

Yep...that’s all I’ve ever done. Just ask anybody here. Tell ya what...post up your best work that you personally have done to any vehicle you actually owned and I’ll do the same and we’ll let everyone else decide who’s full of shit. A virtual build challenge if you will. You can go first.

Man, you really are special. You also, really didn’t follow his thread very close. He has A LOT of custom touches.

Only one I am aware of running a P3 custom gauge from the universal kit. Only one of a few that have plumbed in an actual in line Ethanol Sensor. Completely custom exhaust. By far one of the best sounding out there, and it ACTUALLY breathes better, since it is 3Inch. There is WAY more that I am forgetting.

That doesn’t include some very well done cosmetic tweaks.

Please give me an example of something you would do to make it better?

I'm close by. If Loki and the racing simulator actually do a race at VIR, I PROMISE I will attend and video it for everyone here. Tune only (drop in filter is fine). If this dude can out-tune Adam, THIS democrat will register as a GQP fascist for the first time in my life.

HaHa! VIR would be awesome! I am game. Let’s see if his ST backs up how awesome his keyboard thinks he is!
