Ive got a Diablo Intune, ran it on my 6.0 vortec. It made a decent difference, has quite a bit of adjustability, can adjust the ECM and TCM with it, lower torque management, run data logs, get some custom tunes made, and scan diagnostics with it.
I have a buddy that does EFI live tuning, had him tune my truck and its night and day difference how much better a GOOD custom tune is, and its cheaper.
I now have my diablo intune on my 4.8 vortec work truck, works good enough for that truck. So with all that said if you can get a custom tune done its well worth it, if not the diablo intune is a decent unit.

Was at Polaris yesterday getting some stuff, had a new 1000 sitting in there. They are badass. Great suspension, very comfortable, and seem to have a nice fit & finish. Downfall, over 20 grand.

Looks like a classic dremel tool/ die grinder garage style hack job.
Who did it and what motor is that?

This pretty much nails it. Good info.Yes you need a press. The type of press depends on what you are doing. I use progressive presses for reloading pistol, shotgun and non precision long gun. For my precision stuff, i still mostly single stage load. It takes longer but im not loading volumes and volumes of rounds and i feel i get a better final product. Single stage reloading is also much easier to do when you are working up a load or experimenting with different loads. Here is the thing with reloading, you absolutely can save a ton of money IF you shoot a lot. For reference, i can load FMJ 223 for about 11 cents a round, and i load varmint loads for about 25 cents a piece. Thats paying retail for the components. Compare that to what you pay in the store. I also swage my own rifle bullets and cast my own lead pistol bullets. Its a hobby and i enjoy it, so the cost of the equipment is factored into that for me. And i dont consider the cost for my time because again its a hobby. Thats why i stated earlier that if the motivator to reload is money, just quit before you start. It can takes thousands and thousands of rounds to recover the initial cost of all the reloading equipment. There are other reasons to reload, it all depends on how serious you are. Accuracy is a big one. My personal opinion it doesnt matter much in a handgun, but in a rifle the difference can be amazing. The other thing is availability. I can buy and store components to load tens of thousands of rounds. When there is a panic buy like has been going on the last 8 months or so, i dont have to freak out like everybody else. When i need ammo i just go make it. Attention to detail is key and if you fuck up you will blow shit up. Ive seen it done, thank god ive never done it.

Get a good book if you have no idea on reloading.
Different calibers use different powders. Different bullet manufactures use different measurements of powder even on the same bullet weight. Need to know about bullet seating, case length, correct primers.
There is quite a bit to it, research

I hated mine till I did motor mods for duning. Seriously have no power when they get in the sand without.

You can make 65HP and 50 TRQ with just the "Big 6" (pipe, programer, FCI intake and filter, stage 3 cams, higher compression piston and a bored throttle body) all on pump gas......
And after that they do start running good, stock not so much.
Mine had barker duals, Pc 3, racers edge ported, mega cycle x2 cam, +2 valves, 12.5:1 piston, 5mil crank, ported throttle body, JJ&A play axle, + 2 swinger, and super lite hauler 7 paddles. After that it hauled pretty good ass, and was a wheelie monster.

Stock raptor 700s are the biggest turds money can buy. I damn near sold mine right after buying it, had to dump 4k into it to have much for a drag racer.

I've never had banshee maiers, but had some on a kfx 700 and they fit great.
For a banshee only thing id run was fullbores, look great, 1 piece.

I've never had new UFO plastic before so its hard to say on the color. I had that site bookmarked, ordered random stuff from them in the past.
If it was me, I'd either buy all 4 pieces new from maier, or buy the laker front and rears. (Lakers are 1 piece fronts, fender, rad and tank cover all in 1 like fullbore). That way it all matches.
-
Your tank and rad cover look like oem blue.
Can get UFO from this place.

Tusk. Ran one on my drag ported K&T 4mil with no lockup and got a solid 3 years on it. Was still working perfectly when I got rid of the bike.
-
Maier blue will not match perfectly, it will look fine but they are not identical colors.

Drive that sucker to wyoming and I'll buy it.
Bump for a good deal.

Even though I feel its a stupid rule, a hand down makes it illegal to knee your opponent. Kim Winslow missed this badly, and by the rules Tate should be able to have this turned into a no contest.
If the ufc isn't going to turn it over, get rid of the hand down rule. I'm not trying to say Tate wouldn't have lost, but if your going to have rules enforce them.

Two appeals today, Tate had a hand down on one of the knees, Gonzaga protesting an elbow to the back of the head.
I dont think Chael gets out of round 3. I say jones chokes him in the 2nd, after at least 1 nasty cut from an elbow.
-
Hall mentally collapsed. Miesha got her face knees in. Faber had a nice choke, best thing of the night was Browne elbowing gonzagas head in. Decent fights.
-
Ouch. I hate broken bones, looks nasty.
-
Diaz never stood a chance. I honestly wasn't even looking forward to that fight, I knew Condit Hendricks would be the better fight. I think Condit got shafted on a decision based on takedowns that lead to him landing strikes off his back and getting up but yeah, that was the best fight of the night.
-
Thought Liz was going to pull the choke off early. Nasty bite mark on her arm the next day, she had it tight enough to close Rousey's jaw on her arm.
Rousey is tough, she took one hell of a kick to the boob, them dominated once it went to the mat.
The real test for her is Cat Zingano after she goes through miesha Tate.

Now we get to see Notre fucking Dame and Alabama in the bcs title game if Notre Dame stays unbeaten. Lame.

I stock up on powder, bullets and primers often. Hoard the shit out of those 3 things for all of my calibers so I can always have rounds when they get hard to buy loaded.
