Latest update from Corey...

Ok, just a little bit of scoring on the piston ring of the drivers side turbo. They don't know why, but they are going to repair it for us. The next question was upgrading. Talking with Pete and Denis, the repair guy and my old sales guy, we're going to try to make a custom setup with a 67mm (instead of the 62mm) compressor housing, and move up the exhaust housing from a 65mm to a 66mm. No idea what the cost will be at this point, but if the compressor side can be increased to a 67, we'll be in great shape. More power with less turbine speed, and lower egt's due to the larger exhaust housing. They are going to call me back once they figure out if they can work it or not.

Did you make it to Mexico ok? No body cavity searches?

Corey

Looks like the drag racing is going to be awesome at Indy

Any familiar faces on the new rig?

It's actually the same rig, and a lot of the old faces are still present, along with some new ones... Good guys all around...

My new night subsea trainee is jam up... He is amazing... It's nice to be able to describe what needs to be done and not worry about it... He calls me if he needs help, and has done good so far... Very Intelligent dude...

Robert, glad to hear things are starting off well back on the rig. Wish we'd gotten to see you one more time before you left, but I guess we saw enough of you the past 4 months to make up for it LMFAO. So...how'd you manage to sneak the iPad on the rig? Thought you were going to be device-less?

Hey Mike,

I am device-less... but I still have my office computer... Can't camp out on it though like I do at home, but I check in a couple times during the day...

I would have liked to have seen the gang as well but it wasn't in the cards...

Hopefully mid Feb the weather will be great for a Track evening.....

I'll do that and you are welcome to stay at the house... Track is about 45 miles from me... and I can certainly rally some troops for a nice evening, especially if the weather is good...
