What amazes me is that they are able to buy up brands/companies, run them into the ground and then get away scot free while working class people pay for their mismanagement. It's amazing that this practice is still going on, unregulated and just under a different name, since ~2008. I can't believe that after the housing crash in 2008, this is still being allowed to happen with from what I tell, NO guardrails!

Been pretty quiet on here for awhile. But after CAI, catback exhaust, and HFC, I finally decided to get the Z tuned. Had been having what I figured was a loss of power bc of the bolt ons with no tune. Went last week and they couldn’t get the fuel they needed on pulls. My AFR’s were also extremely off. They diagnosed a failing fuel pump.

So took the Z home and replaced the pump with a walbro 255 and man did it wake her up. The butt dyno noticed the improvement immediately. Didn’t realize how much power I had lost.

Took it back today and got it on the dyno. 342WHP and they said their dump measures a little on the low side. Not too bad?

A vote for Harris/Walz is a vote for Communism. Fact.

That "debate" was embarrassing for those clowns pretending to be "moderators". Why did Harris even show up?
