Talking WOW! What a smoke-screen!!!

I've had my 12a soaking in MMO for the past week and tonight I started 'er up. O_M_G! I've heard about the smoke but this... this was unbelievable! It took about 8 miles to blow all the smoke out. It's subtle but I *think* it pulls a little stronger........ but maybe I'm just imagining/hoping.

Hmmm..... me thinks I need a 13b turbo..... How'm I gonna break the news to my wife that I *need* a 13bt? Any suggestions?

Drill a hole in your muffler, and drop a handful of nuts and bolts in there.
It's GOTTA sound terrible!
When she rides with you, and asks about the noise, tell her that the seals in the engine are starting to crack and bust up into little peices.
Maybe yank the trailing wires when she's riding with you, too.

Oh freakin better yet!...
Have HER take your car for a run down to the store for milk or whatever. Damn thing will have no power and sound like a box a' scrap metal!
Pull one of those, "It was fine when I drove it!" deals!.

If you take the gauge cluster out, the tach has it's own tiny circuit board with a pot to control when the rev buzzer goes off. Just turn that sucker all the way counter clockwise, and it'll go off at 3000 RPMs!

She'll be so sorry she blew your engine!
You'll get your turbo. Question is can you live with yourself for doing it that way?!

Baahahaaha! Perfect! Genius! That just might work! Then to ease some of the guilt she's feeling about blowing my engine, I'll buy her roses or somtin per "79+80_rx-7" suggstion. Heheheh......

/sing-song along with me/ I'm gettin' a 13btee_e.... I'm gettin' a 13btee_e... I'm gettin' a 13btee_e.....

Oh yeah.... there is that minor point.

Pull it all off, and you'll be the envy of us all - Both for the new engine, and your ability to turn off your scruples and morals to get what you want!
"Yeah that dirty rotten low-down bastard! But oooooh looky at his shiney new engine!"

i agree,
if your 7 hears you asking the wife for permition to fix her up chances are she'll start runnin funny,
and givin lots of problems,

7's are very jelious

try not to let them see you flirting with another woman
