Shame on you all....

[GMaines]

Well first off, I trade in my Ford truck, which I thought I was happy with. Then I buy this here Dodge Diesel that some friends say is so darn fun to drive, Then they get me hooked on the TDR site and I become a member... I sit back and read all the wise things I hear... . So to be sure my truck stays in good condition, I like a good listener, put on gages, 4" exhaust, the Mag hy-tech differential and transmission pans, the AFE Megacannon air filter, and say to myself, there it is done and I can now monitor this fine vehicle... Not so, I got bit by this bug called the bombing bug... I just said, OK, I will just try some 275 injectors, and it did put a smile on my face. . I said that is it. Since I have an auto, I can go no higher without damaging the transmission. . So for 2 months I was normal, then that darn bug bit into me harder,. . Right now my little partner is at Bellflower Transmissions getting a full ATS Trany with billet shaft. Then I read your classifieds on this site and see an ad for a new PDR HX-40/16 for sale, I say I am going to need it since I just bought some of Don EDM Mach 2 injectors along with a Edge EZ comp. Of course this gives me an excuse to get a ATS exhaust manifold. All Items will go on as soon as I get the truck back from the shop. Shame on all of you for giving me such great advise. because I did listen... all I need now is some advise on a better fuel system, I already changed out one lift pump and I was thinking of getting the FASS system, Does that sound OK, or should I look at something else?? Also, what HP do you think I will be at? Anything I might of overlooked? I will listen... as you can see. I thank The TDR for all the great people I have met and for all the help I have received. .

I'm afraid, my friend, you have made a big mistake when you took a look at "the dark side. " I feel this advise is just too late to help you... but here goes:



Take a step back from the edge... You must not peer into the BOMB hole... . Seek help from your friends and family... You can conquer this illness, but it will take all your will and strength... Good luck!!!

Comp+Mach2s+HX40 should be around 430hp. It should fly going through that ATS transmission! You should see 13s in the quarter.

It is a slippery slope... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... .....

 

[jrandol]

Sounds like you and I got involved with the TDR with the same intentions..... I thought everyone was crazy on here for doing all the wild bombs. I thought at best I might go for an EZ and call it good. Man that slope is so slippery And to think, only 1 year ago I did my first bomb, a set of RV275's

 

[truckstom]

I have NO problem saying NO!



No son those shoes are fine... here's some duct tape...

No honey, we took a vacation 'year before last...

No boss, I can't work this week-end, there's some diesel heads meeting for beer a BS...









See, it's easy.....

Gary, I hear there is going to be a TDR 12-step forum for Bombing addicts called the "Bomb-Anon Forum".



Seriously, let us know how it goes! Sounds like you're having fun!

GMaines Don't feel to bad, I'm working 12 hour days to help pay for all the stuff I have want and need. The BOMB bug bit me hard.

I am now to the point that I'm seriously thinking about taking out a loan to get all the stuff I want and need, and to pay for it all.



All I can say is these dang people here ain't going to help with our problem there just going to make us worse.

I should have known that this was going to happen hanging out with a bunch of power hungry junkies.

I think I need help. Is there any help for people like us.

I DON'T have a problem. Really I don't. Does anybody know where I could put a third turbo-maybe thru the hood like a blower on a street rod-yea thats it.

 

[Truckie]

:-laf And to think my family and friends think I have a problem.

Well I do cause I cant give them the exact answer they want when they say why do you need all that power?????????

I say cause I want it and its my truck.

Am I right.

ATS Report

Well, just drove in from picking up the truck from Bellflower Transmissions. I must say, what great people there..... The truck sure runs great, it is amazing what a stage 5 ATS transmission will do to pick up one's spirit... ... now I can put on the rest of the goodies... with all that I am putting on, what fuel enancement should I do? a Fass system? thanks

 

[jrandol]

Gmaines, the ATS is a beast aint it!! I love My ATS transmission!!!

 

[paccool]

I guess it is true

"Once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny" - Yoda from Star Wars



I think this holds true with nearly everyone there. :-laf :-laf :-laf The only reason I haven't bombed the crap out of mine is due solely on the lack of funds. :{ :{ :{

One of my good friends bought a 2000 QC about the same time I had bought a Toyota Tacoma. I thought my truck had decent power until I rode in his Dodge. So then I wanted one. A couple years later I order my silver QC sport HO SB. By the time I bought my truck he had his bombed. Again, I thought I was hot **** because I had the new truck..... until I rode in the the bombed Dodge. I got back in mine and told myself I gotta do that too. So here I am looking at how I can spend thousands to go fast in a diesel. It's addicting, there's always something you can do. And unfortunatly my friend is now driving a Duramax and thinks it's better because it has 2 more cylinders. I'll prove him wrong soon enough... ... ...
