My final stopping point for the night after about a dozen times of saying I was done for the night. The last straw was reaching the point of cutting the exhaust to install the long tubes. So maybe with some luck I can start it tomorrow before work. I still don't have my tuner dilemma resolved but if this DiabloSport/HemiFever hiccup can't be readily resolved I'm going to find someone local and handle it with HPTuners like I should have from the beginning.

Man it's been a long ass time since i've posted here, but I've got a full red LED interior light thing going on, installed my own vinyl stripe (I know it's not exactly straight. First time ever doing it), ATI 15% underdrive pulley, PLX wideband and dual steering wheel gauge pod, SRT 10 reps with Toyo Proxes ST III in a 305/45/R22 and ARH 1 7/8in long tube headers with full 3in 304 stainless steel tubing to a muffler and that's it. No tips or resonators. I also found an amazing deal on an OEM sport hood that I intended to paint match, but when I installed the stripe and stepped back to look at it, I fell in love. I was gonna go all black, but there is something about the white hood with a fully black truck that is different and I think looks badass.

That’s some quick work.

Would love to hear a sound bit with the Carven and your set up. :favorites37:

Best I can offer at the moment. Sounds perfect at idle. But the short cruise around the block I gave her a small pull (about 3/4 throttle) and quickly realized it's far too loud for my tastes.

Oh yes… That thundering sound :waytogo:

But I can certainly see how giving it throttle would open up the skies.

Now that I FINALLY have my DiabloSport working correctly and sent my files to HemiFever I should be able to put some miles on it soon. But I noticed this morning it didn't stall while in gear so I'm gonna risk taking it for lunch in a bit and see how it drives.

For what it’s worth, I wouldn’t mind seeing the switches. Can provide others with some ideas as well :waytogo:
Sure. Don't mind the dust. I haven't had a chance to wipe the interior down this week. Thick zip ties do work well in a pinch in place of hog rings, if anyone ever wonders.

Diode Dynamics SS3 Sport yellow fogs installed at the edge of a storm last night, very happy with them.

Also decided I wasn't happy with the fuse panel mounting method I had going so I'm redoing that, picked up some aluminum and did some cutting and fitting. The circuit breaker is moving to up near the battery, and a neg bus bar and a positive terminal are going on that side. Parts should be here this week to finalize the install and get my garbage light bar working again. Side note, people sure do give you some weird looks when doing metal cutting/drilling in an apartment complex parking lot.

Ordered this kit for winter washing only.
I'm sick of driving to the touchless car wash, spending 18 bucks, getting an "okay" wash, and then driving home. Plus, I would rather much do it myself on my driveway and have all the tools that I need at my fingertips. I will use the detail spray, Beadmaker as a drying aid, which should help in the colder months. This kit is just for the winter months as I will do my normal hand wash during the nice weather months.
