Default OCM - Portland Poker Run

I just wanted to thank both Tim and Ruby of Oregon Custom Marine, for putting on such a first rate event. This was my wife Gina's and mine first poker run... and we had a blast!

We are hooked! Not only have we found an activity that we both truely enjoy as a couple, but after the run, on the way home, Gina said:
"It would probably be good if you could make our boat just a little faster"

Yee Ha!! those words were magic to my ears!
The Wife Acceptance Factor (WAF) just went way up on the boat! It was good before, but now it is great!

Stage IV Whipple upgrade... here I come!

Anyway... Thanks for such an awsome venue!

Chris

Matt,

LOL on the wife thing... I have been working on mine for about 6 months on the horsepower upgrade.

A stage IV upgrade consists of a re-programed PCM, a smaller pulley, a water re-route for the innercooler, a new cam, and a Whipple 4.0 supercharger. It should push over 900 hp.

I have a Stage II upgrade on my 600sci now, which puts out about 730 hp. A Stage II on your 700sci will put out about 815 hp.

Your boat sure does look good.

Chris
