If you can actually see a gap, it would be really loud and you would have a MAJOR exhaust leak there. It should be obvious.

I hear ya! The motor and turbos were put in by the dealer right before I got the car. They could not get it right so the customer sold us the car!
My mechanic told me that bit and it doesn't seem that loud. It's got me baffled.

Oh man, I can't stop laughing! Thats funny ****!

If you have a gap between your turbos and manifold, and a dealer was the last place to work on it and installed the motor, your car obviously has major problems.

Have you done a compression test? Sorry if you said this already, I didn't follow your other thread.

Hammertime's rap is funny. Anyhow the dealer did a compression test and it came up low. But my mechanic said it is fine and should be sluggish instead of no acceleration at all..Hmmmm...maybe mc hammer above might know.

first lets start talking how you plan on paying the "winner" are you going to pay via paypal? if so, are we going to have to loose paypal's cut or will the entire $100 show up in the winners account?
and second. please dont call me mc hammer.

My mechanic bought the car Friday. I'm sure he'll pay you because he plans on getting a J-Spec engine and parting out the other. Paypal is only a couple of dollars. As to mc hammer, I agree,let's not belittle either of us.
