its too much power for turning.

Is that a typo or is he suggesting that fuel starvation is a concern without a surge tank? I'm not going to tell you that it surprises me.

No, I think he was just saying that the car is making too much power for a noob like me in the turns, lol. I would agree with him. He made it sound like only run the high boost in a straight line. But maybe he did just mean he was worried about fuel starvation.

ROFL. Were you granny shifting instead of double clutching on the road test?

I was just driving normal, just shifting at 8700 ;)

It was working fine, so Iouno.

Same thing happened after we removed the pill on rosey's slave cyl and bled the brakes/clutch. All was good but if he'd keep pressure on the clutch (pulled out of my garage and sat there for a min talking to me) it would just bleed pressure out the back side of the banjo bolt. An extra 1/8 turn and topped up the fluid solved that :)

I got uber scared I had another bad master, but all seems well now. Hopefully someone has a 10mm or 11mm (can't remember) just in case on the cruise, lol. I'll bring my DOT4 too...can't be too careful.

I will have a full assortment of hand tools as well as an electric impact in my trunk "just in case". I'm sure others will have various tools as well.

Dude, I don't leave home without the tool box and a 5gal can of E85. If someone has a jack & a set of jack stands then we have anything minor covered.

I have my tools as well. Not as vast of a collection as Kevin, but it's generally enough for most jobs that don't require specialty stuff.

Well good to hear. See you guys in the morning.

EDIT:

I also just switched over to AMS oil 10w-40 full synthetic, a special kind that FP recommends.
