edub370 03-22-2012 02:22 PM

But welcome to the discussion!

erkthejerk73 03-22-2012 02:40 PM

I think my brain subconsciously realizes that college today is total horsesh*t. because I never used to sleep like this. not in the army and not when i was working for Ford.

ZMan8 03-22-2012 05:40 PM

hmm and im running on 6 hours every night do to tax season eating my day.

Rooster89 03-22-2012 05:42 PM

when you have a job, you have a purpose. when you quit your job to go back to school...20 an hour doesn't sound that bad anymore.

how old are you tho?

ZMan8 03-22-2012 06:20 PM

23

Rooster89 03-22-2012 06:26 PM

Ha enjoy it. I'm a couple years out of college. That was much easier time. I feel old when i say this, but now-a-days i still have to study for things (CPA exam) but on top of that I average 70 hour weeks (tax season)

ZMan8 03-22-2012 07:14 PM

So my FI exhaust should be shipping within a few days :)
Ordering Spacers tonight :)

Good things are coming!

I'd much rather be working still. But the pay I was recieving didn't fit with my goals. It kinda sucks having nothing in common with all these other students.

Congrats on the exhaust!

http://www.the370z.com/members/edub3...t5-5-speed.jpg


and the business end:
dyno'd at 243whp and 292tq @ 15psi. so now running an 18psi tune i would estimate about 260-265whp and 310-320tq

ZMan8 03-23-2012 10:47 AM
