  1. I do tooHis wife would chew you up and spit you out.
  2. Way to go Neal! Who you gonna be?
  3. Ha! I don't even understand any of it. A week ago I didn't either....which is why the first part took so damn long.No, you don't understand how much I don't understand. I am totally ignorant in this area.
  4. Ha! I don't even understand any of it.
  5. I watched a doc on them on PBS not too long ago.
  6. I don't use iodized salt. I do NOT salt. I will not add sodium, period. I only use kosher salt for steaks and that is all I ever salt.
  7. I don't salt. Only thing I DO salt is steak.
  8. I do it every day.
  9. Matt, don't waste your time. A rock can't absorb as much as a sponge.
  10. I have 9 pairs of dress, one leather and one mesh/leather hiking, one pair of hard hiking boots, 2 gym shoes, and a pair of birkenstocks. Also a pair of indoor soccer shoes. Probably $3500 in shoes if I did the math. And the lions share of it going to Allen Edmonds. Yeah, I buy a lot of Pumas, no expensive shit here.
  11. Fucking dealerships and their bullshit. I knew I shouldn't have even bothered. . . Tuning time.
  12. SCT is huge Mustang world. It's very open to tuners, but I don't know enough yet to touch it. The programmer will run me $300, and then I'll pay dyno time by the hour.
  13. And dammit, I bought 3 more pairs of shoes today. That's now 16 pairs, not including my dress shoes or boots. WTF is wrong with me?
  14. What made her ill?Curious as well.Apparently there was a hole in the intake tube drawing in unmetered air. I think I would have heard that, but WTF do I know.I just can't see it affecting A/F that much, especially since she runs RICH. Did it just fire a code or how did you notice? Fuel trims just not able to adjust?*not that it matters, I am just curious since I am trying to learn more and more about modern ecu's I don't know specifically how the computer manipulates it, drove as if it was only firing 4 holes. If you've ever lost a cylinder, you'd understand. It then lit the little wrench light on the dash. Third time it did it,the MIL light came on. I honestly think the previous owner did all the mods over the winter,then just traded it in before having it tuned. Almost as if he knew he wasn't going to keep it,so why dump any more money into it. forced computer limp not being able to compensate the trim on the cylinders? Surprised it didn't fire a code sooner I'll know for certain in a few weeks. I'll be able to view everything ät the tuner and I'm going to try to recreate the issue while on the dyno. Not that anyone targets exactly stoich, but your stock O2's are only good from what 14.4 to 15:1. (at least that is what I read the range is on the GM units). Beyond those ranges your computer can't adjust right. Not sure if on the Ford it flips to Speed Density then or not? If not, then if your metering is off by a whopping 3% it will cause issues. If you ignore laminar flow disturbances and other friction 3% of an 80mm Intake is 2.4mm. Obviously any hole near that size should trigger the computer to say it is confused. Definitely curious what it equates to once you have a wideband on. Real easy to log that. Does your tuner use HPTuners or something else? If it is HPT and he pulls logs I can give you the software to read them (free just need a disk, pay to rip tunes). I know personally I'd love to see a before and after. Trying to learn this shit and the more logs I can read and settings the better. He may not want to share though, I understand either way. Plus my next car may be a Mustang so that makes me even more interested. SCT. I'm buying the programmer, so I can program and datalog, amongst other things. I don't know anything about Ford's OEM sensors or programming. The Coyote and newer controls are foreign to me as of yet. Thanks for the math. I can now see the issue.

  18. Time for a dyno tune.
  19. Ava is all well and ready to go!
  20. There a lot of viable alternatives to wheat flour, and I'm sure they'd be easily procured in your area.
  21. My working conditions equal nastiness.
  22. Just think of it as birth control. Fuck that. I'm contemplating selling the Lincoln to buy a fox-body DD.Ava is new horse? Yep.

  25. Dropping Ava off at the doc.
