HAHA, I totally forgot there were underaged ppl on this board.

DRINKING IS BAD!

But one of the best things I've learned (but still do, haha):

"Liquor before Beer, you're in the clear; beer before liquor, you're gonna get sicker."

Why would you use a chaser for beer... It's not that nasty hahaYou mean using beer as a chaser? Just use a ***** drink, Smirnoff Ice, Bacardi, Mike's, Jack Daniel's Fruit Punch, etc etc.. I do that all the time, no complaints from me.

NO NO NO.

I'm saying don't drink a bunch of beer, then drink a bunch of liquor. Go from hard drinks -> softer drinks, not the other way around. It's a "general" rule, varies from person to person.

Drink the liquor, use whatever you want as a chaser. Then move down to beer later on during the night. Some ppl can drink in any order they want and are fine, but for a significant amount of ppl, if you drink lots of different crap in all different orders, you usually feel that way the next day... not a perfect rule, but works okay.

I agree. Thank god, I am able to avoid any and all hangovers by simply drinking a lot of water before I go to bed.

And I'm sticking to it!

Reason being, my stock KA24DE automatic dynoed at 119.4 and 135.5, so figure with your mods, on the E, it'll be a little bit more
Damn...that's a 23% drivetrain loss if your CHP is still at 155.

I wonder if the auto's suck up more power.

Autos do sap more power. Quite a bit more, as you can see.

I'm guessing 134whp for the KAE

Calculating the parasitic drivetrain loss through the slushbox...I'd say you got 190 horses.

Ok, dyno's been delayed! hahahaha.

We have enough #'s now, so everyone just sit tight.

Called up the place today & they don't have techs in on Thursdays . I'll update the thread again as soon as I get a run in (hopefully tomorrow, but they are busy w/ a full tune, so iono). Going to wait it out because this place only charges $40 as opposed to the normal $50-$70.

Sorry guys! The guy I talked to obviously didn't know about the techs' schedules.

no I was referring to the dyno numbers that 97KA got...

That's good to hear though...I'm in the middle of an auto to 5spd swap now so It's refreshing to hear the car wont be so doggy stock. That thing was killing me.

Yeah, if (Scooby) you dyno your stock 5spd KA24DE you can expect about 10 more hp and 7ish more ft/lbs of torque. The torque convertor needs to get power some how!

OOOOOKKKKKKK, . First things first. The dyno isn't taking place until later this afternoon, just thought you'd guys like to know, HAHAHA.

Second thing, just because I looked like a dumbass that didn't know crap on TV, doesn't mean I didn't know anything - I'm just not the greatest at bodywork, which will change a little in a few months when I take a body work class at the community college. That has already been discussed to great length.

As for pictures...

I plan on posting some pics for my DIY car detailing - clean, polish, wax I learned from a Meguiar's Detail Day I went to w/in the the next week.

I don't really want to post pics until I'm more finished w/ my lil project more.

I totally understand you guys wanna see what happened to "that dorky lil asian kid", haha, but it's worth the wait... I promise . Well, I did show a couple ppl pictures already, but we'll see how it all goes.

Please refrain from going "off topic" in this thread, there will be a whole thread dedicated to just pictures soon enough. I thank you
