Seriously?? The thing was falling apart at Daves. THe turbo's were puked, coolant was leaking from one of the silicone hoses, and the miracle fuel cell lost a gasket and was seeping gas whenever I backed up a hill to park it with a full tank of gas. Oh.... and the brakes faded on me when I was on the Dragon on December.... december when it was like 30* out! And the traction control and the 6-spd, yeah, well those are just personal goals.... Been working on those things on and off for over a year now so I basically need/want those done this time around. FWIW my wheel speed triggers came in today so I can mount the fronts, but I need the rear brakes to get the rears done.

So now I've got a set of turbo's that (I PRAY) shipped out today and I'll have them on Friday, still have soooooooo much going on though and with hommie not being able to drive, I can't do the 46hr marathon that I did last year, and just to add insult to injury, it is most definately our busy season at work too so time off is few and far between sadly. I'll try, but expect to see me in a Jeep... too many parts that just aren't here yet and I don't want to do what I did last year which was get it running, then ignore all the other issues while I was "enjoying" the car.
