BOOM!! Part 2

Man, wouldn't you know it?? All this talk about injectors, PMRs, tuning, etc... So I'm getting on the highway to get my daughter this afternoon. Kind of getting on it. Oil temp is up around 170, all is good. Hit my hot tune, stomp on the pedal, and...

BOOM!!!!













Blew a boot.

Sorry -- had to.

. I was just thinking the other day you are more likely to blow up your engine than worry about the ULSD.

LOL.... I know, I know...

And let me tell you -- if you've never had one pop at relatively high boost, you're not livin'. Especially with too-big injectors.......

EDIT: On the plus side, I got a package from Riff-Raff already!!!! I JUST ordered my replacement 6637, what, Friday night?? I don't know how he does it...

An acquaintance of ours had his blow up and said it sounded like a shotgun going off. That's the guy who had his batteries both go flat at the same time, which was odd.

He shipped 6637's to me with the quickness too. I suppose his company is one that actually works, takes pride in customer service and satisfaction, unlike most other retail companies in the US.

We aren't perfect, but do our best to keep you happy. I know how it is when you order something and then have to wait.
