Sorry if I missed it but what by-pass valve are you running? And where do you have it dumping the air?

Ah I am sure you will hold your own Mike. I think maybe the week after next assuming both Jason's and my car are sorted out.

Well good news update today that the 7 cylinder thing was just a bad spark plug... whew. And the split radiator hose was a minor deal, although we are considering a solid pipe for that since the clearance is pretty tight between the IC piping and the pulley.

Hope to be back on the dyno maybe as early as next week!

J, is your car beast gonna be ready to go?

Dude--is the Porsche back in business as well? Does the shifter coming off and staying in your hand happen a lot with those cars? Was the dealer like "Oh yeah, we just fixed that on another TT model yesterday"---? Better than the steering wheel I suppose.

Glad to hear it was just a plug brother---was it on the same cylinder that lost the head gasket by chance?

Hey Doug, yes the stupid Porsche was a fairly quick fix. Luckily I found a short-shift kit the next day and picked it up same day. And it was a B&M product, which was on my car when I got it, and apparently this is not that uncommon. Junk I guess.

Oh, and I avoid the stealership like the plague.

Not sure on which plug - I am vaca and Jason and I just exchanged texts... I wouldn't think they would be related since we addressed the area where the head gasket was compromised.

Hope to get dyno numbers soon!
