    Wow, good thing you caught that in time. And also good you didn't get hurt. Could have been much worse. I've been thinking about getting a fire extinguisher myself. Now I'm definitely going to get one

    Please do! Yeah this could have been much worse. I got off easy. Just have to buy a few things and adjust how I run wires.

    The best fire extinguisher is the one you have on hand. I wouldn't have thought much of the one I bought before today...

    At least I'm taller...

    Also, lol.
    That's retarded... Put that bitch on premium and tune for mas powers!!!!!
    The old school Cummins manuals were amazing. The new ones you can't get except in the base model. Plus, it's a Dodge :puke: Only good thing about them is the motor...

    I'm used to turbo motors requiring 93.

    Also, I wish I could find 93 up here. Only 1 station in my area has it. Most of northern NH is 91. :pout:
    I taught me how to drive stick. And I always leave it in neutral. Only time I leave it in gear is on a hill. And for really steep hills, I do 4LO in 1st with the FJ.

    Jesus! I need to get a fire extinguisher!!!!

    You're how tall, again? Because I'm 5'7

    I don't really feel the need for more power with this truck, to be honest. 325HP and 375ft/lbs is plenty for me. Tows my boat like it's not even there, likewise for the tractor. Merging onto the highway is zero problem even with a short ramp, and passing is easy. I feel no need to spend $$ on a tuner and more expensive gas just for extra power that I won't use.

    Sames. Like 5'6.49"

    And I guess. I love rolling into boost in my STI. Drive it like I stole it sometimes. It's just fun to have that power on tap, you know?

    It's like the diesel guys who are pushing 1,000HP and disgustingly high ft/lb numbers.. They don't use that every day, but when they do... :burp::oldglory::rasta:

    So as I said, the short-ass kettle (you) to the slightly taller pot (myself)

    Meh. I view 'rolling coal' as stupid and wasteful. And usually very douchebag-y, since they're doing it to smoke somebody's car/motorcycle/truck out, or dust pedestrians.

    89-93 12V rotary pump, I believe 91 started with the intercooler. 94-early 98 12V P7100 mechanical pump, 98 1/2 started with 24V electronic pump. Note you can swap pumps between the P7100 and electronic versions with a bit of work.

    If I had the time and money, I'd put a P7100 pumped 24V in a Crew Cab single rear wheel F350 with a 5 speed.

    That's a killer build there. Maybe back it with an Allison.
