I at least know of one that I met yesterday at Carlin Dodge. He name was Peter (Paul)? not sure I'm kind of bad with names. Anyways told him about TDR and he seemed real excited to get involved. Told him a bunch of the stuff I know hopefully the rest of you will be able to enlighten him some more. (I'm not to knowledgeable about the 1st Gens). So let's make him welcome Saturday!!

Cliff, All



Enjoyed the "Springs" TDR member get together. Just wished I'd had more time to look at the mods on other member's trucks. Lots of great improvements made to these trucks.



Rusty's truck sounded really good straight piped, especially when he engaged exhaust brake... my wife wouldn't go for this, unfortunately. Too, wanted to look the member who has the Bully Dog exhaust... his truck was "bright white".



Already looking forward to the next meeting... can we have one every week?



Is it possible we can get the contact info, if agreed to by other members, so we can ask questions/solicit input for mods?



'til next time...

You guys aren't gonna believe this! After hearing the straight piped trucks, my wife INSISTED I have the muffler removed!:--) Gawd I love that woman! Good meeting everyone, and look forward to another get together. Larry

 

[ProspectorTim]

Go ahead, make feel *really* bad about missing the meeting.

I had planned to be there, but ended up stuck in Memphis for an extra week



Sounds like ya had a good turn-out and lots of fun. I hope to make the NEXT ONE!

Larry,



I'd jump on that one quick... stacks next?



Where I can I get a deal on some EDMs? Want to install right after I get my LP issue corrected?

Dwayne,



I don't know much about the EDM injectors. There seems to be much talk about these . I'd try a search on the board for EDM, and start reading. May want to talk with Matt (Mgoncalves) up at ATS on Feb 7th. I know he's been looking around also.



By the way, just got back from the muffler shop, and I forgot to bring my muffler home whith me! Steve over at the Muffler Emporium fixed it right up, and the price was right, too. Less than the cost of the kit from Genos. My BHAF should be in at Colorado Kenworth tomorrow. Need to fab up the heat shield, and that will be that!

Larry,



Wow, you didn't waste any time... must sound . When you install the BHAF you'll hear air flow thru it... sounds awesome.



I think it's great your wife is into the diesel thing too. Mine looks at my truck and sighs, she hates the noise. She wanted me to sell it and get a 2004. 5 because it's quieter. I like my noisy truck.



Thanks for the website... want to order injectors before Friday. Still going back and forth between EDM 1. 5s or 2s. I'm afraid I'll want more power after installing the 1. 5s. Once you start, there's no looking back.



I'd like to hear how your truck sounds now... let me know if that's possible.



Later...

John,



Glad to see you finally made it back to the TDR.



Have you heard about the RMTDR event at ATS (near Denver)? You should try to attend this... will learn a lot about diesel performance and meet some people.



If you want to go (Heather too), let me know. Maybe some of the "Springs" members can caravan up. Oo.

Fun!

Yes, thanks for the invite and good time. First time at Country Buffett. I will have to go there again. I enjoyed all the trucks and meeting you all.



Garrett, thanks for the test drive. I love those clutches. 2nd or 3rd South Bend I have driven and I want one! Soon, soon! By the way, how do you like your Yoko tires?
