Well, I mean you could watch and see what's involved when I do it.

It's not like pulling a motor for a rebuild or anything. That's fun too though..

Yeah I know what you meant. Besides, I feel like having a meet again or something. I wanted to go last time when the turbo timer was installed but I was doing something else.

Kaiser i think we might need you there man. I am not sure whats going on but it doesnt seem like i have a turbo anymore. NO BOOST IS HAPNIN. The car is having the hardest time boosting. Its strugglin real hard for some reason. I had the car tuned and i dont have anything changed. I am not sure whats up. I know for a fact though that the wires i have on there are CRAP. I hope this is it. If not then i am screwed.

You could be running on two cylinders for all we know right now.. Wait until I swap the good parts in, then we can freak out if there's still boosting issues..


You were serious about the $80, yes?
