Default I needed to clear something up
I in the last few days I have gotten a couple of calls,concerning the car show on Satdy.at my job!Power 96 was not supposed to say car show in the add. However because of it we are going to try to accommodate everyone.What it really is!!!!Is a parking lot sale and big blow outs etc etc.There will be burgers, dogs and soda.Car show it's not.An excuse to ride with your buds and eat some free food it is.

Default God bless this great boost weather!!!!
I just returned from burning, spinning, & chirping my tires all over the place. My car felt like a real beast this morning with the cold weather! It felt like no matter what lined up today would have got smoked. My **** was moving!!

I Love this weather and I'm sure everyone else on boost feels the same way!

Good'ole DuraBlend 20/50
No more Syn 10/30. When I opened up that motor, it look tired already.
It was malnourished in the past. Then revving out to 8500 on the Blitz did not help either. So, tired, thin oil and 8500rpm= invite to uncle Rod...

In the big scheme of things RWHP in the 470's is not really big. 700+ then we talking big. And even that is not big for some individuals.
