I've been wondering where Sid has been too. I'm more than happy to help him troubleshoot MSFITOY and get it back up and running strong. It's more fun for everyone that way.
I put in a call last week and haven't heard from him.
I had heard it was thermostat problems and didn't even make 190 on the dyno. Now while this would be a ripe opportunity to bust his *****, I can't bring myself to do it.

In my Dojo, I make more power than SID.
From what I saw, his thermostat wasn't opening, so it was boiling the coolant tank coolant. That intercooler he has was also cooking the inlet air [way more than my stock intercooler], and I think there was also a boost leak somewhere. I didn't get a chance to plug in my OBDII scanner to take a peek at what was going on in there though.
Sid, if you're out there, I'll be glad to help figure out what's going on!
So, you guys all want to meet up for the North American Auto Show in January? I talked to Sid and Blake about it a few times.
Let me know and we can pick a date once the show comes up.

remember me Sid?
The bottom floor is always a great place to check out, especially since it is hardly ever packed!
If you are going to be there let me know shoot me a PM for my phone number and I will make sure to stop by.
Ok...I'm bored waiting for the header to come back from the shop with the extra bung so I can install it...as soon as Mr UPS shows up with the flex pipe and Magnaflow resonator, I'll have it and the connecting flange welded ...then I'll need to run Msfitoy over to my header guy which is roughtly 15 mile away with just the header on...hope I don't get pulled over as it's going to be LOUDA$$!!!...
In the meantime, as to not bore you guys too, I installed new "angle eyes" marker lamps and got my new legit Michigan plate...enjoy...
Hey Sid, where did you get your turnbuckles/standoffs? I may need some longer ones and I really like these...for now I am good though.
