North West BS Thread

I’m all down with the sand. I don’t have quads anymore but I might be able to get something put together. I’ll text you some pics! If you want whoops and a long weekend there are some great ones down at Winchester Bay. May be some at Florence…but don’t go balls out South! Trust me! Slow South, Full send heading north there. Do you have an IG? Follow Blake Wilkey? He has been coming up this way with his big for UTV Takeover the last couple years. He has awesome wheelie footage and on the whoops.

 

Yea! I just saw the UTV takeover footage wild.

 

Sweet lookin Suby!

Back from a couple days in Vegas. Boy fought at nationals. Did not medal, but he fought great and confirmed he can fight with the best players in the country. So proud of him. He now has 4 weeks to prep for Black Belt 2nd Dan Pre cert with the official ceremony in November.

Out of the 17 in our group that went, one kid (not mine) and one adult (me). Got Covid. To be honest, I am surprised everyone didn’t get it! Tested positive Monday morning and I am mostly symptom free now. Just feeing run down. I guess this is one of the ones to get… Omi in January was way worse.

 

Congrats...

 

Blower is on lines ran. The fit kit changed from the older TRD blowers to the newer versions so had to update some intercooler lines but all good. Hopefully it all should be wrapped up tomorrow.

 

Do you have to modify the air box at all, or is there enough flow through the stock unit?

 

The blower comes with its own intake box.It's larger with a 4" inlet

 

This is the post I've been waiting all day for!

Hey, just confirming that's a used unit you ended up grabbing a few month ago from someone on the forum, right? Or, am I thinking of something else?

 

Well I was trying to snag that unit but he sold it. I sourced this blower used but with a full fresh rebuild and never installed after the rebuild. I then sourced a "Fit Kit" which is the install kit and that was brand new. Saved me about $2.5k doing it this way. Oh also the company that did the rebuild said they'll back the rebuild or any issues.

 

Copy that! Yeah, I was thinking I saw you were involved w/some of the back and forth on that one, so I just figured that was the one you ended up with; either way congrats on the upgrade and hopefully the install and tune come together w/o any issues for you!!!!

 

Thanks! Fingers crossed lol!

 

Camping mode fully engaged.

 

We are hooking up the 1997 Coleman Tent Trailer tomorrow and yarding her over to Nehalem Bay for the weekend. Camp strong my friends.

 

Enjoy guys!
I'm camping in Central Montana, waiting for this storm to kick off!

 

So jealous

 

Just received my StarLink RV dish (been waiting for two years for the home one to release in my “cell”). Totally janky setup on my garage roof with the dish sitting on a plywood “platform” and the cable routed in through a side window. I got the Ethernet adapter and ran that back into my current home setup so that the rest of the house can just run off my excited Eero system that is currently running in AP mode.

(pic before it initialized - it’s sitting Almost flat now)

It needs 12 hours to “settle in” and map instructions and report outages, but so far here’s my speed (reported by my eero) compared to my normal DSL speeds

 

Sweet! That’s a big difference!

 

Yeah
I was actually able to upload those pictures directly without having to edit, resize, and shrink them. Fucking amazing!

 

No filter or editing? That is beautiful! Montana does have some of the best sunsets I’ve seen.

 

Prarie thunderstorms make some amazing sunsets

 

Just an auto filter, but it hardly changed it. Lol

 

Yes they do!

 

Blower is on! Tuning session today at 4pm. Excited to get this part of the build dialed in.

 

Ordered an air compressor. Trying to hold back from ordering a bumper

 

Don't do it; you're gonna need to join BA

 

Do it!

Whelp. Tuning update. Turns out the upgraded brand new aeromotive pump is no bueno. So dropping the tank and dropping in the fuel pump included in the maggy kit. Calling summit racing and sending that aeromotive back. Hopefully the maggy pump will handle the slightly smaller pulley when I get it on.

 

Prosser camping. 1st gen parked next to us. I think it is a thousand degrees. Wine tasting followed by beer, add in heat = headache! Should of stayed with beer.

 

For those of you who tow a trailer. Do any of you run your fridge off propane while you travel? Never done it but considering doing so.

 

Half limit of clams got turned into camp ground clam chowder last night.
