HAHA! I was wondering when you'd find a reason to post-up! See you at the party on the 28th! The motor is still rockin', we'll see how long she lasts... every time it starts defies logic the way I hammer on it. Someday it will have had enough, but not today!!! WOOT!

 

sam, sometimes you're just weird.

how bout some loctite on them bitchez

 

I have another party to go to earlier in the day with a non profit, Backbay foundation. They host a heluva party which is called the "Flyway Feast" in North Carolina. However, if one party is good, two can only be better! We will try to do both.

Your engine with its high mileage is a testament to good Mazda engineering, for sure. I bet it doesn't burn oil either.

what's the heater hose running under the crank?

 

That's the recirculation line from my BOSCH BOV. It's still fully hooked up and discharges into the intake pipe behind the filter... keeps it nice and quiet. I thought about building a silencer system for it but I'm not interested in spending any more time or effort into this car.

I think I will be on the lookout for an all metal Bosch BOV or cheap FORGE in light of finding out the OEM plastic BOSCH's might leak under boost.
