Edge Posted May 5, 2010 Report Posted May 5, 2010 Hey Craig you still get credit for the final push to get the pulley. OK, before I drove Kooper I had no intention of doing any engine mods at all, it really is all your fault. Edge is now just baiting me to get more, more, more... Oh I have no doubt it's a collaborative effort. I just remember stopping by your table when you were all eating at the Grill, and me pointing out the 3 basic 1st Gen MCS mods: Pulley, Intake, Exhaust... then tune after that. I had a feeling that me hammering those points home had some impact in the equation.

Brian0758 Posted May 5, 2010 Report Posted May 5, 2010 I'm so confused, I don't even know which to do next...I guess that could be a whole other thread. Exhaust, cold air intake, suspension, brakes..... oh and I can't forget the sway bar Ali Hey Ali, If you want Craig, Marti, Edge and I could all go to lunch with you again Another option is to give one of us a credit card and we could go shopping for you :biggrin: See ya soon, Brian 2012 Jeep Rubicon
Edge Posted May 5, 2010 Report Posted May 5, 2010 Incidentally, all of you 1st Gen owners who know how to drive a manual are welcome to drive mine for ideas. (bad influence? Nah! :laugh:) 2nd Genners can drive it too, but obviously the ideas won't necessarily transfer. VERY different feel.

Now that you know that Soulfire has slightly more torque than Mr. OEM, maybe you should try it!

mbongers Posted May 7, 2010 Report Posted May 7, 2010 I spoke to the Service Manager and he was pretty much kissing my butt. They are going to bring Rita in for an inspection and make sure no damage was done and he said they would definitely take care of me, not sure what that means but we will see. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
