  1. Pass on the C&A's. Curves or Pilot's are the way to go. Get the Hurricane alignment tool if you want decent belt life. You might need to machine the secondary to get the backspacing correct. They are all over from the factory from what ive seen.

    And turn that bitch up! I ran the Hurricane race(quick spool) tunes last year. 240 up to 290 with the Gap interface, switchable on the fly. Turbo comes in hard down low. Ridiculous fun. I could bever go back to a smoker.

    Good luck with the sled!

    Have you tried any of their Legacy cheeses?  They remind me of that old wheel cheese that was available at every general store.  Fall is here, it's apple pie and cheddar cheese time :thumb:

    During the test itself, two things became clear: The Model 3 works largely as intended, and the build quality was the worst we have seen on any new car from any maker over the last 10 years.

    The flaws and defects broke down into two categories: those that affected the functioning of the car or the owner's driving experience, and those that didn't.

    The first group included:

        The defective touchscreen and all the follow-on effects (above)
        Persistent creaks and groans from the console or dash
        An intermittent loud buzz from the upper right-hand center door pillar at highway speeds on some road surfaces
        A steering vibration (in a car with just 1,000 miles)

    Different owners have suffered blown main fuses in their Model 3 battery packs, varying and unexplained error messages that power down the car, and numerous other issues.

    The longer list of assembly defects on our car that early owners seem likely to overlook are a remarkable number of fit and finish issues:

        Misaligned body panels
        Widely varying gaps between panel edges
        Headlights protruding above panels in some places, sunken below them in others, varying side to side
        Glovebox door that didn't sit square in its opening
        Badly fitted chrome door trim that didn't align from piece to piece

    Note that the cheapest Chevy, Honda, Hyundai, or Toyota wouldn’t make it out of the factory with any one of those observable problems, let alone the whole list of them.

    Tesla has never been known for high quality, our owner admitted—his 2012 Tesla Model S had the same misaligned chrome window trim, though it was less visibly out of whack.

  4. A little perspective before the fird guys get to uppity. This is top ten all time up to 2017.  Cars got quite a bit quicker this year. I love it. That Porsche is an animal.
