I had considered a Freud joke. Yours was much better.

E85 siin dang typo but eff it. 30 psi already gays, had the air filter off today and zero play, axial or radial. I really want to try an EFR, maybe Lars will let me do a T25 mainfold upgrade instead of a T3. Love my MK Turbo though. Thanks Lars, Vlad, Nigel, everyone!!! So much Love here!

What was it you said about my car as we were ripping on to the freeway?
I will definitely buy my stuff from Track Speed Engineering if I go EFR. I would basically only consider an MKTURBO or TSE setup at this point. However, Lars has taken good care of me, and I want to try an MKTURBO T25 cast manifold with an EFR from Andrew.

I think I said something along the lines of, "Holy ****, this thing hauls ***."

In my defense. I am still on a stock block, with a stock exhaust. Soooooo. Im basically not using the EFR at all.

Now, if you are gonna switch to an EFR, just use the TSE mani. Im sure lars wont have any hard feelings. He never intended his mani to be taken to where you have taken it to anyways.

+1. Why would you not use the sexy SS manifold?

Many thanks to Pat and Andrew too!

This is my favorite corkscrew, on a kind clean skin, with my favorite sourdough in the background. No it's not a racetrack, just has a cool left thread in the center, so you keep turning it clockwise, self extracting.


A current, under hood picture.
