NW WA Meet / BS Thread

It was quite a difference from where we were staying which was tye coast north of Kona. I loved it a lot more. From waipio to hilo was an awesome drive. Wish we could have explored more of the hilo side but with the eruption we figured best to stay away.

 

Anybody ever get rid of their muffler on the stock exhaust and just straight pipe it? I was wondering if it would be too raspy or annoying...

 

Yeah, it's not an engine I want to listen to.

 

Sounds like a wet fart with a bullhorn pointing down a small pipe

 

Flow master delta flow sounds okay. Not too in your face but you can hear the truck.

 

Cherry Bomb!!



I ran a straight pipe on my 1998 Ram/Cummins. Technically the turbo was considered a "muffling" device. The wife said it sounded like a rabid garbage truck. With the Psycotty intake and the straight pipe, it was beautiful man, beautiful......

 

Annoying as fuck.

 

I have family near Pahoa and was there while fissure 8 was blasting. I've camped on the Waipi'o beach several times. Legend has it that if you do shrooms down there you will see the Nightmarchers and they'll come and rub tiger balm on your balls.

Ok me and my friends made that last part up. because we were shroomin.

Oh and yes, the manta ray swim at night is awesome!

 

I remember you mentioning that. We were there aournd May 6th to May 12th (or 13?) so if i remember right it was when they first started evacuations really.

 

If it's not a V8 keep the fucking thing quiet for gods sake

 

Ha! Balboa park on-ramp is about 150’ long no joke.

 

50' would probably be enough given that it's always clogged with fucking traffic

 

All of you complaining about onramps don't know what underpowered is. You're welcome to borrow my '70 VW bus with it's original 40hp engine. Well, it was 40hp when it was new, I'm probably pushing 30hp at this point. You haven't lived til you've driven a mile on the shoulder after the onramp trying to get up to a safe merging speed.

 

I drove in my friends bus and strong gust of wind pushed us from the far right lane to the far left lane on a highway. My dream of owning one died right there lol

 

You were in a good one if it took a strong gusto. Pretty sure a squirrel fart almost took me out once. It's a solid rig though if you're not in a hurry. And the payload is almost double my truck

 

About 30mph wind gust. He was like yea this happens from time to time.

 

Just drive between the hrs of 7am - 9am then 2pm - 6pm. Traffic doesn't get much faster than 30mph on a weekday during those times.

 

Had one, 1600 dual port 68 hp! 2nd gear going up Sherwin in grade to mammoth in Cali. Awesome in snow if you go in reverse!

 

SOS! just took the truck out and have a gnarly metal on metal binding noise when turning going backwards or forwards.. anyone have a flat bed tow truck then can get me back to Toyota for the first diagnosis in Bellevue?

 

The off ramp from I-5 north to the 163 does that down hill with a very sharp turn with the merge of 4 lanes to 2....
