JohnBoy's Turbo Build

[b.u.ti-ful]

It doesn't get out of your system, but hopefully you learn a few lessons and get a little smarter along the way. I am 44 and I recently bought a 1986 GSXR. It's pretty fast, and I am glad to have the experience of a seasoned rider. Injuries don't heal as fast or as well as they used to and I am now able to make smarter decisions. I still ride fast, but I have taken two rider safety courses, always wear gear and never drink when I ride. My friends and I order rounds of non-alcoholic beer. But, none of that will keep a cop from writing up a ticket for speeding. They are expensive, but these days so are concert tickets and football tickets, so what are ya gonna do. Now that I wrote this preachy note I'll probably break my leg mowing the lawn.

Reminds me of a joke:

15 year old kid was feeling guilty about touching himself so he finally went to his father for advice.
Son: "Dad, old are are you when you finally stop masturbating?"
Father: "I dont know son, but its not 48."

Here is the problem. Bad street racing is setup and people stand on the side of the road to watch. No safety at all and cars break or get out of control and next thing you know people are getting mowed over by a machine going close to 100mph. Death is the result

If your going to street race just make sure if something happens the only people that can get hurt are you and the person your racing. I never race with spectators unless it's at the track and never if there are cars I can hit in my way. It's just common sense, ticket for racing is points down here. Kill someone by accident and it's minimum 25 years, unless your Nick Hogan then you only get 8 month since the guy is not in the ground but basically dead.

You all know Tampa is the street racing capitol of the US...

I bring him porn on each visit. I always kid around with him about it and he swears he can still get it up. If he wants some porn movies he calls the house and leaves a message for me to pick up some disney movies. It's classic

I'm not kidding

awesome

[tiFreak]

that's great, took me a while to figure out who "Rosy Palmer" is

***Well I'm doing a test DME hydrid***

I purchased a MegaSquirt MS-II and I'm going to graft or integrate it into my spare Motronic 5.2 test DME.

The goal is to have a BMW DME 5.2 that has EWS-II, all normal functions of the BMW DME (A/C clutch, speedo, CEL, cruise control, etc.) and tuning ability on the fly (engine running) over Can-Bus communication of spark and fuel (any injector size) delivery changes via laptop.

Shooting for a BMW hydrid DME for the M44 that I can tune for any injector/spark configuration, get excellent gas mileage & handle my GT-30/70 turbo while running like a BMW should.

Seems like an easy project...Hope it is what all I think it will be when completed

[Will'sBimmer]

Sounds awesome. Make me one for my Ti when your done. Cool?

Crazy maybe but 100% street. The wife has it right now to pick up the son from Sylvan learning center. She said she needed an adrenaline rush so I handed her the keys and said "don't wreck it and no tickets". She's like "can I run the A/C"...I said "sure but don't while beating on it cause I don't think the compressor is made to do 1,000rpm to 8,000 in 1 second". She says "What?" I said " No A/C just keep the windows down and drived the $hit out of it"

Hope she really enjoys herself so I can buy more parts

You're a brave man giving the keys to your wife

I think potentially your ti is one of the fastest, if not the fastest on this forum. I'm restricting mine to 14psi (450bhp) to keep the gearbox intact lols. Don't have any plans to run more as a daily driver.
