But my Z meet rocked since we had 24 cars at MY HOUSE where we had an awesome home-cooked breakfast before heading out for a cruise.
That was pretty nice...short of the ***** shifter **** I was worried that we wouldn't be able to top it this year since Dave and his wife were such gracious hosts.

I had a 99 passat 1.8t basically the same car, just fwd instead of awd. You will spend closer to 3k to get 65+ hp and your stock turbo wont last long when you run higher boost. I had intake, turbo back exhaust, meth, APR chip with 100 octane program and a dual stage boost controller and I only made 185whp 222wtq at 17psi.

Thats too bad^^....I may just have bought to flip it and makes some cash. It is a real decent dd for winter, I am hooked on the awd and the qucikest heat EVER!

However, I need to pull driveshaft to repack with grease, clicking noise is killing me.
Does anyone have a hoist they're open to others using(other than Aaron)?

Anybody else feel like they're eighty today?? Had the day off from work today, took 3 naps, watched a little tv, barely moved at all today.. There's no way my body is going to make it till I'm in my 70's/80s, not with the kind of work I'm doing now.

Greg, just don't forget to take your Geritol and gingko biloaba and you'll be fine. Now what were you talking about again?

What up, Ben? Ready for the weekend? It's 0 degrees here....
