So, I was pretty much a ghost on here this season...a **** ton has gone down in Kevin81 land. Got promoted, had my mom move in with me, took full custody now of my 7 year old nephew, bought a new house....basically, I've not spent a single night with my girl. (the SHO) And winter is coming. On the plus side, I have a 2 car garage...with nice, proper, smooth concrete floor...no more rough chunky black top and gravel on my poor abused knees.
So....gotta start nailing down my plans for next summer. After talking to some of you about the next steps for powa, I'm leaning towards the gearhead IC, and HPFP. Still no E85 in this state, so I gotta find ways to go faster on 93 octane only. But...those 2 are not cheap, so that's about ALL I would be doing next year...and I still have to figure out how to square it with the wife. Possibly bribe her with a nice dining room set. (off face book market place, but tell her its new).
But going fast aside....I also kinda want to improve the looks of this car. So, 1 thing I'm already starting, since it's fairly cool out now, is plasti dipping all the chrome. American automakers need to get it through their thick skulls that chrome *****. Nobody likes that **** anymore.
I'd love to get a different hood, but the only one I've seen is...kinda over the top. And I'd LOVE to get a better spoiler, a nice, understated duck tale, like you see on so many BMWs and Audis.
And new wheels....well, that's gonna be yet another year...2+K on the go fast bits is about all I can do in one season, without castration, I think.
