Several of us live near College Park. I think that's a 30-45 minute drive from annapolis if you go up 50 to 495 to kenilworth. That's with no traffic though.

Prolly starts about 3PM till about 9PM where we go out and eat.

It might consist of moving Theo's FB, working on HITMANEM2's TII, and stripping other TIIs down to nothing. Possably a sterio install.

lol, what's an air bypass thing?

the BAC valve?

if so, the one coming out of the front goes to the water pump housing, and the one coming out of the back is supposed to go to the throttle body, but a lot of poeple just bypass that and make it go to the rear housing.

Oops, that's where I thought the PITA hose that makes the throttle body/ upper manifold so difficult to get off if you haven't lengthened it. I need to look at that again.

the sucky hose is the one that goes from the rear housing the the back of the TB... if you make it go from the rear housing to the BAC this makes it 10 times easier, bcause you can just un bolt the BAC to take off the UIM, and coolant doesn't go anywhere cause you don't have to disconnect any lines. (at least for turbos this is the case)

oh alright i was thinking more of the 40+ range... which would make it quite odd for a 17 year old (like myself) to be associating with. haha.

it would be pretty cool to meet some fellow rotorheads in the area though, im sure i could learn alot from some of you, seeing that im fairly new to the 7

Try checking the actual seal around it? Your gasket might be toast....
