Yes, we must stop those evil un-tarrifed and un-taxed oil lines from infiltrating our country! Great job US Customs! Tax the chickens next... oh wait.

Rumor has it that three overseas containers from Germany were held in a Tennessee Customs facility for nearly 2 weeks. Nobody seems to have an explanation. Oil line still has not arrived at the shop.

The long saga of my turbocharger rebuild(s) is done. Car went back together... and now there's an oil leak until the engine gets up to temp. Could be a chain cover gasket or a head gasket. Huge difference in repair cost. Today, I'm waiting for the diagnosis.

That should be quite livable on the street...

I installed a new carbon cabin filter.

Most of the time it will be at about 800 hp. Simple twist of the Iboost **** turns up the power
