hiring is not the problem, the problem is to find a good staff... we've been through so much which only wanna come and get paid... didn't work as what i expected and gave me shit! and sometimes i feel like im paying them to come in just for nothing, cuz i had to help them out instead of them helping me out... nowadays... people are... urgh.... know what i mean?

Yesh, everyone is going getting a meth kit. I don't know if i'll be able to hold out on my Dinan software until my warranty expires.... February is so far away... getting a Vishnu tune + meth kit makes so much sense.

Don't hire any kids under the age of 25 And don't allow cell phones. Hopefully soon you can hit the track with us...at the least go to Sac Raceway.

My only gripe with Shiv's meth kit is you need to use his tune. If Cobb ever releases the ATR flash then you can never use it. Also, his pump location may not allow you to run different intakes (custom?), this isn't a big deal though.

I live off of Downing/Devonshire, the north end of the Crossing.

Boost Juice from Summit Racing - http://www.summitracing.com/parts/SNO-40008/

4 Gallons should last you 4-6 months. You can go to Performance Auto in Marysville and buy VP-1 100% meth for $6 a gallon.

So I found a pretty knowlegeable BMW shop in Rocklin called Performance Motor Works. I'm having them install my LSD on Friday, and if all goes well, possibly have them do the turbos the following week. Their prices were a tad higher than Sonic MS for the LSD install, however, they charge a flat rate and not hourly which might be good for turbos (not to mention I don't need to drive 2 hours to the shop). I'll let you know how it goes.

Good Day Sacers! It's been quiet on here lately. Has anyone bleed their own brakes yet? I'm thinking about doing this before Thunderhill and adding some Motul RBF600 for it's higher boiling point.

I think Jay will, if we can schedule enough people at once maybe he will come visit us in Sac. I know I'm interested.
