So I hate my day so far
Friday I left my car at my mechanic's shop so he could install the injectors and couplers that Jeff sent me and so he could install the ingnition from BHR. He calls me today and tells me that apparently my read driver's side shock is blown and he found out cause he saw oil on the floor and when he looked underneath yeah a blown shock . Then he calls me like 10min later to tell me that the couplers that Jeff sent me apparently are wrong diameter or something so they dont fit so yeah another thing going wrong.
I hate mondays.

dude i feel you. My stuff flooded out for no reason (i always preheat to full temp) whole bunch of probs followed after... But have you guys ever had your dsc light flash while the traction light stays solid happen? its odd. i just changed my battery and it started doin it. O and im interested in the boost setup what would you think the price would be?

stolen from my garage i had it on my workbench fully assembled, i was really down about the theft and actually thought about getting rid of the 8 but that though cleared away fast knowing how good the car feels/drives compared to alot of other cars (boosted) i guess you just gotta move on and hope things get better...since a couple weeks when it was stolen i have another turbo kit on the way

It's thru Fluid BTW...had a change of plans
Besides, Tim's Turbos (who was initially doing it) was terrible at communication, so I didn't feel good about it. Also look into Bryan at BNR. He talks about his upgrade in the turbo efficiency thread.
