I didn't request Sunday delivery, it just happens sometimes with the free 2-day shipping. And for some reason sometimes it ends up 1-day. And also, if you see USPS trucks delivering on Sundays, it's Amazon. They contracted with USPS for Sunday deliveries and the mail carriers are delivering nothing but Amazon packages on Sundays.

Itll be by drone soon anyway....

I decided that this time around with the brakes I’m taking the easy way out when it comes to bleeding them so yesterday I ordered a Motive power bleeder, and today Amazon delivered it. Pressure instead of suction because I discovered the latter doesn’t work well.

Gotta let us know how this works out.

I have no idea what she hit because the sleazebag left the scene. No insurance or license just like the sleazebag that pulled in front of me on my bike I'm sure. It hit right above the frame so it pushed everything back like an accordion. And since all the airbags deployed they're about $5k alone, plus the wiring burned so the computers probably fried. So yeah they take an impact good as far as protecting the passengers but they total easier. And she loved the Cruze so she wants another, this time with a sunroof.

Sound like ****** bag did your insurance premium a favor.

I put the bigger pulley back on yesterday until I get a new tune- I'm not going to risk melting a piston. I'm waiting, @BlackBearPerf so please check my e-mails I sent you.

Well shit I just heard back from Justin and it looks like the 3.375 pulley isn't going to work without a lot of hassle which I'm not going to do. I'd need bigger injectors (which would mean pulling the blower since I can't get one of the rear bolts off the fuel rail), probably a bigger fuel pump, plus my MAF is maxed at 5100 RPM which would require a 2-bar OS using a second wideband wired to the unused EGR pin on the PCM, as well as a replacement MAP sensor. No thanks. Anybody need a 3.375 Whipple pulley that was used for 1/2 hour? Dammit. Oh well, The Beast is plenty fast as is.

BOO!

I know huh. Sometimes you gotta know when to quit. I think I'll keep the pulley though. I'm not saying never, just not now lol. By next Spring things might change but if I do all that I'll probably pulley down farther. It's just not worth all that for 2 lbs of boost. Now for 6 or 8 lbs more boost...whoa. Kidding. That would probably end up costing me a bunch more for drivetrain upgrades. Differentials, driveshafts...but maybe 4 lbs.

Not to mention upgrading to a 12 or 14 bolt rear end
