    I plan to leave my area and head up to you guys around 8pm my time. That puts me there around 10pm my time. I have a half day of work today then home to install the new wheel bearings. I got the old ones out last night. Car will be good to go at that point.

    What is the address we are meeting up at?

    I have not had the chance to drive with the boost cut switch off and the new turbo yet but as of now.

    When i hit 5th is just falls flat. The turbo combo is not right for it in 5th with the top gear swap. I would think that at high rpm its rather mean. But if im not way up there my 5th is a dog. I will try it out tonight before i go changing stuff.

    You have a 5th gear swap you'll be fine. I only get 35 at 80 mph that's 4k rpm

    I am probably gonna get the worst MPG out of the group leaving INDY. Unless we have a turbo bp going. I dont have MPG numbers yet as i have only been doing testing runs but it seems as of now i get not great MPG.

    You guys could always do a big voice chat on Google hangouts or something. Might eat data though.

    Lol texting and driving. Perfect. As for mpgs I'm comfortable going 150ish miles before I fill up. Then I need a break and want to top off the tank. I put in 6.8 gallons today and did 171 miles. Idk how many many gallons I can use but I doubt my pump actually sucks from the bottom of the tank.

    Assuming we all top off for gas at our first exit on I-70 at the Knightstown/Wilkinson exit (where we will pick up Dave and Val in Pearl), that's 165 ish miles to our Chilicothe stop where we will pick Tommy up. I'm assuming nobody's mileage is crappy enough that we won't make it that long on one stretch. We can stop in Chilicothe, get gas, breakfast, and get on the road for our next stop.

    If you have walkie talkies, please bring them, and we will see if any of our randoms can link together. Communication will be key on this trip.

    Anyone excited yet??

We'll be leaving on Thursday and staying the night somewhere on the way. We're seeing some friends in Durham for dinner on Friday evening and staying at the Hampton Inn in Raleigh.
    We will be staying at the Hampton as well. Thursday, Friday, & maybe Saturday night.
