Ahh yes, living in Powell River you really have a love/hate relationship with BC Ferries.

I probably knew him - we supply, manage and service a safety system throughout the fleet, Supes were an ongoing part of the job.

Only been here since early last year, with bi-monthly trips back to YYC to check on things.
Will be starting the relocation effort in ernest this year, with a target of being a resident of British Columbia (apparently saying you're a British Columbian is not acceptable according to the Wokies) by the end of 2025.

I can see how you made great time leaving at that time of the am, and IH19 faciliates the speed factor!

It was a warm day (60+ degrees) and I decided to take the 996TT out of hiberation. It's had a slight miss for awhile now and was planning on doing the coils/plugs this spring but it finally threw a code so I ordered new coil packs and plugs, hoping to get it installed this week once it arrives. Im kinda' thinking my slight off idle throttle response issues are related to this.

Exhaust install today. Speedtech 100 cel 2.5 crossover. First time wrenching on this car. Took a little longer than expected but everything went well. This paired w my already installed markski tune should really hit the spot.

Considering I have destroyed a couple of these, I am curious as to how many of these they will sell....

Brembo OEM rotors and pads ordered. Was pleased to discover only needing the fronts replaced.
