Haha Krispy Kreme for the win!!

If you cross Longstreet at the end of all American there's a two lane road that goes back, as soon as you cross the little wooden bridge on the left there's a huge parking lot that kind of goes down a hill so you can't see it from the road. Wide open, never any cars there, but sometimes the MPs will drive back there and just park their cars (probably to take a nap haha). As for off post, I usually head out towards Carthage and try and find something since they have a bunch of nothing out that way.

Yeah I know where you're talking about, that's dead center in the middle of post. Lots of barracks there. Sounds like a good way to lose driving privileges

I suppose I'll take a trip to carthage n check out that way. I'm just stuck in the field for a training exercise atm... Army army army...

As for having time in the car with the blower, temps have been lower than what I was expecting. If you're not careful in the lower rpm(especially wearing army boots) I've accidentally spun the tires a few times. It's much easier to drive in on regular sneakers.

Uhh, the wife is still scared of the car. I don't know when that'll change, but that's fine with me
Overall I'm still very happy with what I have, I just again need supporting mods to put my mind at ease

#YOLOOOOOOOO hahaha I've done a few donuts there in my old foxbody. On a weekend after doing some recon obviously. I think they condemned those barracks honestly. Carthage has a lot of long country roads, its where I usually open it up. Inside the actual city limits of there and Vass, the po po are pretty strict.

Yeah I hear you man, I've got another week of TDY. meanwhile my Paxton has just sitting in boxes back home :(

hahaha! Yeah, that'll happen. It still sneaks up on me sometimes when I'm not paying attention. Next thing you know you're sideways at 50-60mph. ;)

Glad to hear, though. Let me know when you're ready for those mods. I wouldn't sweat it much. We have tons of these things running around with otherwise bone-stock parts.

McLeod RXT clutch with flywheel and ss braided line.
FRPP or DSS 1400hp half shafts
Sticky tires ;) some Mickey Thompson et streets(bias ply)

Edit:
I also forgot to mention I have the decel pop and crackles again. I've missed that on my old Fox body. It was not apparent before the blower

Bookmarked!

Same here. Adds a real aggressive posture to the car haha!

Ok,
Thought i'd give you guys a little update now that the temps are getting a bit warmer.
So, sitting in heavy traffic today I decided to snap a pic of my IAT's and such so you have a general idea of how the blower compares to others.
I know its not summer yet, but this is just an example of how efficient the cooling is on these KB blowers
IAT's drop almost immediately once I start cruising to barely above ambient.
Sometimes a few degree's lower. Which is amazing
These are IAT2's


Also! Installing a Dash Cam tomorrow. Just purchased Blackvue DR650GW-1CH
So, I should get you some better video of course.
I've been very busy lately to include a death in the family. Not to mention I go away for training (army) for a month very soon... So yeah.

On another note, my car got backed into by another company's First Sergeant. Shes paying for the repairs and the car gets dropped off Monday.
Hence the rush for this dash cam.

EDIT: If you can't read the temps, CHT=207º IAT=90º Ambient Air=69º

Thanks for the update.. I'm sorry to hear about your loss. :(

 

[Stage_3]

I was thinking about your car last night when on this site.
Sorry for your loss, my condolences. Stay safe when training and I'll be on the lookout for new videos!
Good luck bro.
