Damn,

I was just there yesterday with my wife on vacation. Went to Johnston Ridge lookout. Well worth the trip. Also, on your way back, stop at the little resturaunt near Kid City or something like that. They have the best burgers and cobbler I've had in a long time. Hope you have a great turnout!

I'd like to go, but my car is having TPS problems or it could be a slight chance it's a vac leak.

ahh my turbo was having plenty of TPS issues, i swaped the one from my N/a with one thats halfway decent ,but i still have the dieing at idle thing.....

** have u checked if the turbo inlet duct is leaking?? mine has a huge *** crack in it, and that can cause rough idle and other problems similar to a vacume leak**

well ill prolly be showing up at 272nd if i can wake up early enuf. still feeling sick, and my exhaust is held up with bailing wire due to some length problems( temp fix/to short....)

They are working hard at trying to fix all the errors. FC/DC your thread did post but I deleted it because we do have a section test area. Hopefully soon all the bugs will get worked out.

great time was had by all. it was overcast and there was fog at the top of the mtn, but no rain. kinda cold!!!! (hahahaha for all you 509ers).
I think there were about 20 cars, but kettlebutt will have the skinny. There is something awesome about being at 8K in 3rd passing a motorhome, and checking the rearview mirror and seeing a 3rd gen getting real big, real fast.... holy **** those things are quick!!!1

Had a great time as well. Was kinda chilly, but hey, thats what I get fro driving with the top down. Had a few realy hairy times with the throttle stuck in the floored position, but that was even fun. Nice to meet everyone and look forward to the next get together
