@Kostamojen , what is your wheel/tire/suspension setup?! That setup looks insane! In a good way

I'm guessing 17x9 + 35 tc105n? Any spacers?

Wanted to give a huge shoutout to @BirdTRD for his hand in swapping out my Sprintex blower. Wouldn't have been able to do it without. Between various stuck bolts and such, he surely kept his calm through my storm haha. I may have even convinced him enough to go FI himself...!

Some pics as followed:




As you can see here, flat spotted screw..


And reinstalled!



And all my knocking issues have been solved! Fully tuned once again!

I'm just glad we were able to finally get it taken care of! I'll remember that evil, hex bit twisting screw for a very long time! Not sure why but that one certainly didn't want to come out!
I don't know if I'm a glutton for punishment or just plain stupid, but 2 days later, yup...ordered the Edelbrock! (though I was seriously considering the super sexy sounding Sprintex!)

That's why it's always good to have a set of these on hand...

Had a fender-bender with a kayak... 😞
Got out of a safety brief for the weekend, was driving home, and the van next to me was hauling a few kayaks. One flew off and slammed into my front bumper as I tried to avoid if.

Yup. After 3 strikes with the allen wrenches and a last ditch effort with an impact, we resorted to a similar screw extractor. Fun times!

Did lapping for the first time, at the CTMP GP track. NOW I KNOW all about that feeling and rush so many of you have experienced.
