    Oh and the thing that pisses me off is that I never really pushed it either. I hit 6k maybe a handful of times, and it lived below 4k on its daily commute.

    I shoulda beat the piss out of it. Then I could at least be satisfied with it being broken.

    From the outside everything is perfectly fine, plenty of traction oil, and all the hoses are properly hooked up.

    Though there is one massive problem. The whining noise that I have come to love so dearly is no longer being made, and there is also no boost. None at all.

    Yet for some odd reason, the car still drives itself. Idles and starts up without flaw. No other noises, apart form the lack of the whine.

    Oh, and its much much slower now.

    Its supercharger rebuild time!!

    Just drove the beast 800 miles in a single day, without a single hiccup. I am damn proud.

    Averaged 28.5 mpg too. Extremely impressed.
    I may have spoken too quickly.

    The bigger they are, the harder they fall.

    Stay tuned

    Haha it was an incredible drive, and I had a blast, and the E30 had no problems. A perfect start to a Sunday.
