Heya party people. thought i'd check it out, drake n' bama from that other board PM'd me to check this place out. pretty sweet so far =) not as many flames lol. just thought i'd introduce myself. currently in the military & all over the place. got a 4x2 & like to see what i can do with it. i've gotten stuck in puddles, i can peel out with my shitty general grabbers and i just bought a supercharger. interested in all kinds of things and have a pretty open mind. look forward to chatting it up with you guys & possibly heading out to some low key trails =)

yeah, originally we were looking at removing the spare & putting in an STS turbo kit (never heard of that one either) but when we were looking for tuning software or an interface we found that almost no one would give it out to the consumer. you'd have to send in your ECU to have them put in their curve so if you wanted to tweak it a little you'd again have to send it in... $$$. looking for this software we found that Stillen had a killer deal on their superchargers, 4k for everything & my buddy & i are gona head to the auto hobby shop on base & install it. Thanks for the welcome everyone =)

Sexterra here on the boards has a 2nd gen with a Stillen on it and it's unreal. I think he is turning something like 340hp with it now. Can't wait to see it and hear it when you're done.

My son was in the Navy. They hated to see him leave due to the cost of training someone else.
He was on the USS Kidd (DDG-993), no longer in service in the 90's. She now belongs to China.
He was the one who drove the boat/steered it in and out of port.
Also if they lost there navigation in rough seas, he had to steer the boat.
I am not a Navy man, so sorry for the bad terms.
I did catch a few good rides, one on the USS Cleveland (LPD-7).
