Hey Tony...you willing to stand by your statement next year when I bring the 32 Valve version to life? Can you say "crankshaft power sucking parasite"? 
Hey, you all have to give me a break...I just got a divorce, bought a new house, etc. I've spent a lot of coin in the last 6 weeks...but it will all be worth it in the end! I'm parting with a check next Friday that could get me into a reaaaaaalllly sweet ride...but to me the house is more important and will appreciate...plus it has space to Garage the Goldmember! I'm glad I was not raped over this divorce as so many men are...
Afterall, I was just joking...of course rides in the Goldmember are always free. Just don't ask me for a ride on the Goldmember....Doh!

Yes I heard about that car....see if you can get pictures. As I recall, it was quoted at about 750 crank HP...I was also told the intercooler sits up on top of the engine and is air to air...apparently the underbelly pan was welded into the hood to let the air in...someone at Wichita told me that last year...I forgot his name. I talked with a guy in Florida two weeks ago who tells me later this year he is putting together a 6+ liter 32 valver with the hopes of 1200 HP...sounds extreme but I guess it is possible...but I doubt anybody could actually drive it and not kill themselves.
I passed up a 5-spd S4 last year for $5,000! Foolish move on my part. Once I sell this car I will be in the market...but first I need a bed, sofas, washer/dryer, and some other necessities for the house. I am doing a bit of re-plumbing on the Goldmember from the turbos to Intercooler to get more ground clearance. Also, the new fuel pump just died cold...Bosch just doesn't make parts like they used to.
