    Mod day in/around bradenton - April 30th

    This idea started in the thread about filling supercharger silencer holes
    http://www.nhtoc.com/vbforum/showthr...492#post196492
    but it's kinda taken on a life of it's own.

    We're on...

    Maybe pull some blowers, clean ICs, change plugs, e-fan install, EM ground kit install, exhaust - whatever.
    HRDScrew mentioned bringing some of his killer air horn kits up and helping install if anyone is interested
    I know I'm getting backed up on mods to install
    I'm trying to secure my dad's 6-car garage and huge driveway to work in so we should have plenty of room to do whatever we need. And there's a Lowe's and a Discount Auto like 10 min away.

    Hmmmm I think the B-ton Hooters could use some Harleys in it's lot that night too....

    Hopefully we can get people that have already done whatever mod you're wanting to do so we can all help eachother out.

    So anyway - post up if you're interested & what mods you wanna do,

    sheduled for the 30th of April

    Guess I'll start ahead count:

    Venom - EM ground kit, plugs, exhaust, maybe air horn & fill silencer holes/clean IC

    I'm down on this. I have a ported blowm plenum to install along with pligs and cleaning the IAC. I would be happy get together and make a solid day/night of it. Larry's place is plenty big enough and doing the mods is really no big deal. Set up a Saturday and I'll be in. I have got to get that blower polished. I can't put a silver blower on with a polished plenum

    I'm down, if my blower is not polished I'll help mod everyone else. I've been know to be quite handy around these babies! Anyone without any mechanical ability needs to load up and take advantage of free labor! I have no problem hooking up with the brotherhood and making these things purr.

    Hmmmm...sounds interesting....got a JLP CAI, ported plenum, TB and some other stuff sitting in the garage.... I saw Vince has a special going on...might be a great time to clean my intercooler...god knows the guy that owned it before me probably didn't... and I would get to meet some of the other local guys...

    I don't have any mods to do on my truck...yet but I'd like to hang out to see what other people are doing and maybe get a ride in some trucks to compare different mods that you gusy have done. The 30th sounds good to me.

    OK, I'm in too. I need the silencer holes filled. Clean IC. Might as well look at the plugs, I'll bring a new set just in case. I was wondering about painting my plenum blue. What type of air horns are we talking about. I sure would like to have a set loud enough for a ticket. What's the cost?

    I have a couple air ratchets as long as we have a compressor available.
