Morning Connecticut

Everybody okay from the storms? Need anything?
We only had 1" of rain yesterday and last night

 

Hoping all of you CT folks did OK with those storms. I heard it was wild out there. I drove back from upstate NY but made it home and unloaded the truck just minutes before the storms hit here and they weren't nearly as bad as out by you all.

 

I got to make my first trip north pulling the quad with the Anderson intake spacer last Wednesday and it was definitely a noticeable improvement. Since it moves peak torque from 4000 rpm to 3000 rpm it puts it right where the engine is running if it's in S4 and running 65-70 mph. I'm pulling a 750lb ATV on a 400lb 5x8 trailer and I've done this trip several times with this load so I've got a good baseline of how it pulled before. I picked up about 1 mpg too. Overall it was a much more pleasant trip with the torque coming in lower and makes me feel better about spending that much money on a piece of plastic. Also, I monitored the trans temps for the first time (got the Torque Pro app) and with just the stock cooling set up pan temps never went over 200. Figured this might be useful info to some of you.

 

Managed ok down here, heard somewhere in the 6-8" total, nothing compared to Oxford/Southbury

 

Oxford/Southbury pics are horrendous.
People missing...absolutely tragic

 

13.5 inches at Oxford Airport. I got well over 10 and I'm a bit North.

 

I have a long driveway and part of it is a hill.
Over the Summer, I dug some swales for drainage so the driveway wouldn't wash away.
They worked yesterday.

 

My brother drove through the airport this morning, road on the backside is still completely under water, possibly no road there any more

 

Looking through the repair orders and there is a 23 NX. Customer states “drove car through water, now car doesn’t work”.

 

Guess Subaru’s don’t float!

 

Gonna be a lot of those in the coming weeks unfortunately

 

Copart will be interesting

 

We definitely got a good amount of rain in Stamford area, i went down south of i95 and there was a lot of flooding and cars stuck with electrical or hydrolocked motors, people will never learn.

The trusty tacoma got me all the way up route 7 even where the roads were flooded from the Norwalk River. Sadly looks like all of Greentree's preowned cars also fell victim to flooding.
