San Diego BS Thread.

fyi -

https://www.roadandtrack.com/news/a37022836/california-ecu-tune-during-smog-checks/

so who do we have locally that can remove and reinstall our tunes to beat this ?

 

Usually you have to go to the tuners website and find your local authorized dealer or whoever tuned you in the first place.

 

This is why I bought the SC with the bully tune for the CARB. Put the bully tune on for smog, then revert back to HPTune. It'll pass smog and not grenade.

 

yup it’s going to be “ good for business” for the tuners getting paid to R&R our tunes

 

careful everyone. Other threads have been locked for merely discussing the laws and regulations that apply to our trucks.

 

lot of tuners are becoming carb approved. My Cobb tuner for my wrx is carb approved. Being able to go from stock to your tune without bugging a tuner is nice.

 

Did the SD trip 7/7 to 7/10 with long days on both ends...

Taco input and thanks to all who suggested places to eat. Yes, taco shops are a personal thing but here is where I ate:
- City Tacos in PB: good pinto beans and fish tacos ate just fine, crowded but good service
- Taco Surf in PB: not authentic but pretty damn good plate of food. Actually ordered the chicken fajita plate which ate like tacos + peppers.. super good. No booze at this shop
- Oscars in PB: Fish taco and skirt steak taco were good, maybe lacking some heft? Pinto beans really good.
- Luche Libre: good, dirty little place but that's what gives these places flavor.. suck it up and eat
- Tacos El Gordo: es muy bien! Tacos...
- Not a taco shop but new breakfast/lunch/coffee shop in PB, Drift Cafe. Great coffee and great breakfast burrito.. add bacon for the win

What else did I do?
- Laguna Mountains (60 miles east). Drove to Desert View for lunch stop. Cool mountains and a trip through Julian (neat PCT stop over town, I hike much)
- Walk around off the end of exit 2 near Freindship Park at the border... little warm but what a cool wall(s)!
- BBQ twice up in PB at BIL house on Law St.
- La Jolla beach walk... about 5 miles RT. Shopped at the Bentley, Mclaren dealers, nothing struck me as buy-able
- Dive bars: Thrashers, Silver Fox... love the Fox, the bouncer repeatedly goes to the bar for shots of bourbon...
- Cabrillo NM: Just a cool area and have been here every trip to SD. Big ass military ship coming into port
- Dropped off rental car and walked to Little Italy, quick food and drink at Ballast Point (certain there are better options here) and walk to T2... fly home

- Always took side roads when able so saw much. Very clean compared to Portland.

 

I have a hard time imagining a place so dirtier/trashier than SD

 

You've never been to any of the olde cities back east. SD ain't bad.

 

Have ya been to LA lately? lol

 

have, though it's been a few years

 

Que?
Obviously, everyone’s entitled to their own opinion, but I’ve lived in 7 states + the Caribbean in the last 25 years and SD is by FAR the most beautiful place I’ve ever lived and one of the best I’ve ever visited. Every city has it’s bad areas, but there’s a good reason those of us who do, pay the “sunshine tax” to live here.

 

^^ THIS! hahaha

NOLA/Bourbon street is far nastier than anything downtown or PB lol

 

Note... I compared to current Portland which is trashed right now.
I travel for business and have seen many NE states. They are not too bad. PB board walk does have some less than desirable folks living there who somehow forgot how to use a traditional bathroom... I thought the overall city was nice.

 

Anybody down for a Gordon's Well 110° run?

 

l

nope, never been out of my neighborhood. I once ventured all the way to El Cajon, but it was far and scary.

 

It could be worse, much worse... Not that it's not getting there.

I remember when that happened, I cant even imagine how I would react to that same scenario, but I can assure you that there would be rage involved, lol. Fucking HORRIBLE!!! Oh the shock factor.
Just imagine a vagrant trying to pour something on your head only to realize it was close to body temp and the smell would surely key you into what had just happened! I would want to bury him at that very moment but having shit poured on me I might see removal of said waste product might take priority over beating the socks off that F'er, haha..

 

Oh and stay cool ladies and gents, gonna be a warm one, was already 90 in the shade by 9am!
Makes my job a bit more difficult when I'm trying to achieve heat stroke and having to lift heavy objects and welding, etc..
Its days like these that make me wish I had an office job in an air conditioned indoor environment...
You know its hot when you drink 5-6 liters of water and never have to take a leak! The humidity was absolutely terrible, It was 97 degrees yesterday by 1pm and the humidity was in the high 80s.
Anyway have a great day my friends!

 

And it not even August yet,
