Brad I want a Ride when you get up and going again!
No prob bob.

You loved it, haha. Some days I wish I had an exhaust on the car, but I always find different ways to spend the money.

I saw the vr4 around a couple times too, looked really clean! You still going to St. Thomas?
Over the last week I picked up a new stainless clutch line, an adapter to get rid of the banjo bolt on the fuel filter so I can run -6 an from the filter to the rail (figure every little bit helps), and a new slave cyl/throw out bearing/clutch fork from Nick over at Brookdale. Probably get a new fuel filter before the trans goes back in as well.
Hopefully once I'm done with the J-term, I will have some time on my hands to get the back on the road and break in the trans in. It'll be nice to drive a kinda fast car, even if I can't beat on it.

So you have been driving the car with no exhaust the whole time? I didn't notice you didnt have an exhaust when I stopped over that night..
Good choice on the banjo bolt replacment. My Walbro 255 went from a high pitch hum to a very low drone from just replacing that fitting.

Yep I've had no exhaust on it the whole time. I almost want to throw a stock muffler not connected to anything in the back and pretend like I just have a huge exhaust leak. haha
Yea hopefully with summer blend, the banjo bolt replacement, and the boost a pump I can make a little more power.

Good luck. I remember when I was just running a dp it was loud as hell and I had to drive to Rockfalls like that.. But the exhaust was cut off right under me so I suppose it was worse. I wanna hear this thing now! haha. If you ever drive past 39th street on a weekend (When im usually home) make sure you give it a good pull!
