Estimate On Gains

[Superdan]

So, I'm having some additions added tomorrow, and following the current trend of every T owner posting up on here and asking everyone's opinion on how much of a gain they're going to get, I thought I'd do the same...

Currently, after a dinner of a chicken ceaser salad, I weigh 78.5kg's.

Tomorrow I'm going in for my additions, at the local Subway.

The additions I plan to have are as follows;

-A footlong parmesan & oregano sub with turkey and ham filling,

-cheese I've pretty much decided on is Swiss, only because I've had good results before (unless anyone thinks differently?)

-Salads I've decided to go for what they call 'The Works', which doesn't actually include all the salads (which bemused me a little). This package includes lettuce, tomato, cucumber, capsicum, olives and jalepenos. will that be enough?

-I've decided not to have the sub toasted, as I've heard it can take time, and other people end up coming out faster. can anyone comment on whether it is actually worth toasting it though? is it worth the wait? I do like crunchy, but is it too crunchy? I need it to be daily 'eatable'.

Now, I know that salt&pepper is free, but I'd really appreciate you opinions on whether to go for both, or just salt or just pepper. I mean I like both of them separately, like the punch of the pepper, and the tang of the salt, but together? I dunno...

sauce has to be chipotle, that's the favourite, no exceptions there!

Now the all important decision... any drinks or cookies? I've always gone with a 600ml coke, but I'm thinking maybe the large postmix coke is a more cost efficient option?

cookies, I really only 'need' one, but three for $2 can't really be beaten for value.

So, with these additions in mind, what kind of gains am I looking at? 500g's? 600g's? 1kg? I'm really hoping for between 600-700g's. will these additions be enough???

any recommendations on any other options I should be looking at?

thanks in advance guys

lol... Trippa!

3 or 6 cookies is a must dude. You cant leave subway without em!

A mix of choc chip and white choc and macadamia should see ya right.

to get your gains safely you will need to get your valve springs done(depending on car), fuel pump and your cat wil be the main restriction......oops all standard replies for how much will I get?

I hate coke atm and into blue powerade. All the crap in coke with alot less fizzz...oh and 3 white choc macadamia nut cookies to finish off the meal.

Is your body tuned for 600ml coke? If so maybe you don't want to run it on post-mix, you may not get full value out of your tune if that is the case.

Double f*cken cheese will get you 700 to 800 grams Chief without a doubt. And ask for 'plenty of sauce' or say 'I want it saucy please' if the sandwitch artist chick is hot.

After reading the title I was just going to reply with - 6 billion rear wheel megawatts on 2psi - after thinking it was one of "those" threads again.

But, as usual, you're taking the piss again SD - which I love - so, touché and nice work!!

Hey, didn't senna give you the arse?? (not in the literal sense of the word....... unless.....?!?!)

I think between the jalapenos, double cheese and extra sauce, you're going to have issues with your 'wastegate'...

[Ghosti]

The jalapenos and chipotle sauce will definitely cause your wastegate to vent to atmo. This is generally frowned upon and you can expect a canary for this.

Stay away from the "Tuna Box". It's generally of poor quality and is usually half full from last week (they scoop that sh*t out with an icecream scoop too!).

Drinks, only use the highest quality fuel. This means if it's coke, it must be from the bottle. The premix is watered down in order to make it go further and will struggle to make the power you're craving as it's only coke91, you need 98 or higher. If you're after the best bang-for-buck, a good trick would be to grab a bottle of coke98 and add some straight coffee or guarana to each tankfull.

As for cookies, etc. If the sandwich technician is good enough and your instructions are well thought out, cookies are a ricer mod. Unnecessary and only there to fill the void left by an inferior main product. Apple pieces are ok but are more suited to a bigblock that has exhaust restrictions and needs freeing up. You will see only minimal gains.

Finally and most importantly, don't forget when the girl asks you "6 inch or Foot Long?" you must always look at her and smirk, then pause and say "what do you think??" whilst glancing down at your washer bottle.

Good luck and don't forget to post before and after scale readings.
