Well I decided that to celebrate the fact that my girlfriend decided to dump me because she didn`t drink and I do to hit the bottle.Talk to Lidio today and in about two weeks he`s going to install an 80 shot(dry) with a flip chip and a different tune.Can`t afford a supercharger and with a safe tune I think I should be fine.:burnout:

Now that's irony right there. Dumped for hitting the bottle and then hitting the bottle to celebrate.

Brings a tear to my eye! :bigcry:

I dunno, Paul, going on the wagon for her may be a good thing. That lady, I liked, and she may be worth the effort ....um, SHE could give up smoking, y'know. A deal, perhaps?

As for the other bottle, I'm happy to hear you're going the safe route, through a tuner like Lideo. An 80 shot, when you want/need it, seems a reasonable, and certainly a most economical approach. Not to mention if the, cringe, day ever comes to sell the MM, all you have to do is remove some minor plumbing, and re-flash.

How's the boat yard plan coming along? From what you're saying about mods, I'd say you've become a boat yard flunky.

BTW, I hear there are some very wealthy widows with very large, um, boats, thereabouts.:up:

Hack are you going with a progressive system instead of the 80hp shot at once?...and I am interested in your cost for this system as I am probably going to be doing some mods this year and am not completely sure on direction to go...tune, exhaust, juice, gears, TC, etc etc...thanks, willie

Sorry to hear about the girl problem. What kit are you going with? I have the Zex 82.....I forget, but it's the LS1/LS6 wet kit. I'm looking foward to getting it installed and Lidio tuning it for me.

Busy? Tell me about it! I called him at least 3 times last week for my father's tune and everytime it was, "No, sorry Lidio is busy at the moment he will have to call you back." lol

Ya, for months I have been thinking about selling it because I have a large note but I talk myself out of it everytime.As for Michelle? my bad habits are to blame for our split but she smoked like a chimney and I put up with it.The timing is what bothered me.Easter morning?Oh well.There`s lots of lady`s and only so many Marauders.

Hack I would go with a wet shot, this is my opinion, a dry shot would work better if you could, could figure out how to do a dry shot in front of the Maf like a lot of 03 Cobras do then the EEC will correct AF if you use a regular dry shot it will require a separate tune, which is what I do not like but either way as the say it's a low cost alternative to a S/C

Well Michelle and I are back on again after one week.But Im still hitting the bottle.It will be at Lidio`s in about two weeks.He says he has only done a couple of Marauders with just the juice and Im wondering if anyone else has done it and how do they like it.

Some of the Mach-1 guys have reported the zex NMU failing. http://www.mach1registry.org/forums/showthread.php?t=62665&highlight=nitrous
On page 2 is where they determine it was the NMU. Another guy reported on the install the NMU would was not working, he called zex and they had him redo the ground still nothing and they said it was just a bad one. I think nitrous can be done safely but some of the reports on zex over there are not so comforting.

George Thorogood once wrote, "If you don't start drinking...I'm gonna leave..."

J and I were surprised she made through the last EAM.:P

Good luck with the NOS. Lidio did mine as well, and I have no problems with it. It's fun on the freeway whilst confusing high end Mercedes and z06 owners.;)
