As of June 1st, I am a staff sergeant. For those who don't know, that equates to $224 more per month(before taxes), and a little more responsibility. :)

At first I didn't think I made it. I looked on the 'net for the July cutoff scores, but I didn't make it. Then I came in to work today, and was congratulated by the Ops sergeant. I am so happy.. Now I just have to go to BNCOC!! :P

Me too! Tsgt baby! But I have to wait to put it on of course. The draw back to being in the AF. I could've swore it was more than 224 a month. But then again I could be wrong I'll get a little more for getting the stripe under the curve so to speak.


Congrats Jack!

My bad, you are in the Army. Kind of confusing since a SSgt. in the AF means the first rank of NCO hood. Once again, sorry.

Yeah maybe so Jack. Mike you know you a funny man. The stares I get now just imagine in a few months!

Hotrod. Spools are a no go. Too much customizing and we aren't in the land of plenty if ya know what I mean. However boost is still a go. Just of the SC'd kind. Hopefully I've got a email response from someone selling a brand new (almost new 2 months old) w/ a 10 month warranty left on it Powerdyne. 1500 bucks couldn't pass it up. 6-8'lbs should be enough and not destroy my stroker. LOL

Jr? Well browsing cz28 for sale section as always. Saw it there yesterday and shot him a email. That PD is normally 3220 bucks and thats the lowest I've seen. So for him to sell for 1500 and a warranty and a guaranteed money back if they're any problems that occur w/ it performing.....just couldn't pass that up. Besides if I don't use it I can always sell it later for the exact price and not loose a penny. I know I could get 2500 easy but I won't. At least not any FBE members. :) This guy is in a crunch and is willing to take a loss.

I just couldn't believe no one else jumped on it. And he's military too?! C'mon can't go wrong here.
Supposedly the 6lbs will be too small for the 396 but I'll still see a 100rwhp gain w/ some timing pulled due the high compression. If PD makes a intercooler than I'll be straight.

John If you look in Excessive Motorsports they sell the powerdyne for $2800.00. I guess what I'm trying to say is awsome buy on your behalf. I'm thinking about buying one to put on my station wagon :)

Yeah but w/ excessive MS you get excessive waiting. They suck Ryan people haven't seen parts from them in yrs. literally. Stick w/ the tried and true. The companies that sell stuff that cheap is their gimmick to lure you in. But they don't tell you how long you'll wait though until it's too late and your fighting to get your money back.

Yeah I remember you telling me about them before. I just thought the price was good. I guess if you lived within a few miles of there store you would be straight. I'm not going to lie I really wish they would change there ad in GM high tech I'm tired of looking at the same damn things. The only thing they change is the prices, they start adding instead of subtracting. I'm sending you mail after I ad a few things like O2 sensors.
