Weather looks like it won't be playing nice this weekend, supposed to rain tomorrow through Sunday. Without a garage = playing the waiting game.
Too bad, this 38R here sure wants to go to work.

On the bright side, got the turbo and pedestal pulled, and the up pipes are soaking in penetrating oil until the next time I can crawl under there. Would y'all recommend keeping the turbo and pedestal for spares? Selling them to someone wanting to do a conversion?

I have the one off of my blue 2-wheel drive truck that now belongs to my daughter. I have the one off of my Excursion, with wicked wheel and 1.15 BDP A/R outlet. And I have the one off of my son's F350.
I'll probably sell them sooner or later.

It was, it cleared up this afternoon for a few hours. I even had the chance to go play basketball with my 7-year-old at the park. Good day!

I'm late to the party, and I don't want to harsh on your mellow, but just FYI the 38R ain't smog legal in the People's Democratic Republic of Kalifornia. What's your plan?

My friend who went up on Thursday says that it has been perfect riding weather during the day
.And today which was suppose to have rain all this morning looks to be perfect for riding with no rain in site.

Edit: the 4" vs 3" intake is a dead give-away 38r vs stock, something easy for the tech to see. And I agree, changing smog shops is what I did last time, but the new place still wanted to fail me for the 6637 until I produced documents. Pain in the patookis.
