    Oh, thank the baby jesus. Ok then, I don't feel like total shit any more.

    Anyway, I need to put my taller diff back in and get the intercooler going and whatnot. I'm dying to get a real tune going on as well.

    Thank the baby jesus...

Chris has a cammed m52 swap (I'm not sure about any other mods).

      I'm real proud of her. I gotta hook up that intercooler...
      Great to hear it's running hard!

          Yeah man. Good to finally hang with you guys.

          I drove 50 miles today in it. All really mild driving. I felt that I owed it that after yesterdays' tom-foolery. It does well when it's being tame. It is very drivable. I'm gay for my car. What can I say?

              Give your car a name like "The DiamondSchwartz Harlot"... Then you can smack it around all you want because you know it likes the treatment.

                K, here's the thing. I don't wanna put a video of me driving my car all fast on Facebook. Not cause I think the cops will come after me, but because I don't want to put that shit on FB. I liken it to people putting pictures of their fuckin' dinner on FB. Now, if I could figure out the Youtubes, I'd totally put one one there. This is also "my work week" (the week that I work) as apposed to "my kid week" which is the week that I have my kids, so I really have little time to do sweet burnout vids and stuff. But, Agent and Sideways87 both saw it in person so if anyone thinks I'm dodging, ask them if was kickass or not. But I will get something on here eventually. You've waited 7 months, give me a couple more days and I'll accommodate you.

                I didn't even get to drive it at all today. :(

                    Alls I gots to do is click that FB button on my phone and it's all magical. It's hard to do the you tubes. It's like how our parents couldn't figure out how to set the time on the VCR. I missed internet wizardry skills by like 10 years.

                      If you have a FB button, you can download the YouTube app and do it the same way.

                        It's pretty kickass if you ask me!!! For what its worth to the nay sayers it was faster than my m50 swap. I want to see it again once you get a good tune on it. If you want to make a video sometime let me and agent know, we can help you out.

                              One day on your next non-kid week, we'll get together and shoot some video on my GoPro and Zach's camera.

                              Or you can take it to the AutoX with us...
