I didn't untill Mikey espalained it to me... It sure is easier on my shift light to have the steering wheel a lil bit closer to me... The spokes used to hit it... until Mikey looked at me like I was a dumbass... which is entirely possible...and told me how to work it.... who knew...

Nothing to forgive you for. I teach you how to adjust your steering wheel, you teach me the inner workings of the twin turbo system. Win - win.

Any idea what time you might wanna do the vents tomorrow? Err...today? And don't forget to bring whatever you said was necessary to do it that you need from the house.

Wow man, that just looks (and sounds) awesome. How does the car know when to use the C16 fuel cell? Or is it only spraying into the intake with the nitrous?

This is an engineering feat right here. Very cool stuff.

If the nitrous system is armed, the nitrous and fuel spray together... As long as the parameters Corey sets are met, then stuff happens if all is well...

In this case, there is a tach signal and a hobbs switch... The tach signal is used by the progressive controller and you set the on/off, or variable ramping based on the RPM, throttle position etc...

There have been so many on the fly changes due to the bad inductive tach signal pick-up. Corey and Alan just talk for a minute when something doesn't work, re-configure it and go on.... All of this is based on a simple inductive tach signal pick-up that Aeromovite told us may or may not work... and they were right.. it doesn't ...But the guys at my shop never missed a beat..."ok, lets do XX." Still boggles my mind...

Mine too.

I was trying to find a picture I took of Vengeance's 4th gen Camaro at F Body and their bottle setup. They had them painted to match the car which was a burgundy color.

But was thinking, in staying with the "twins" theme; since it's twin bottles, get 'em painted the color of the car and have Brandi's on one and Twins on the other.

Just random synapsis firing inside my head. Carry on.

LMAO, I like the idea ... a lot... Brandi's other twins....

The bottle on the left in the trunk is actually Joe's. I'm going to order a second bottle for myself... just haven't done so yet... too many other things on the plate... but I like your idea...

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. The 'other' twins, lol

This is the best pic I could dig up



You can barely see them in there but you get the idea.
