not being lazy for the win!!! well with this snow coming in today, being lazy is exactly what I want to do. But, i gotta work unfortunately so I guess being lazy isnt a bad thing today. Hope everyone is having a nice lazy possible snowy day.

My Freshly Rebuild 13B

Well its been a long 2 weeks but I finally have her back! If it wasnt for Sam and Josh this car would be in a junk yard. That being said thanks again guys! As far as the engine goes she runs like a top and always fires right up. Josh did a hell of a job building her. The paint was just a bonus . She runs great, idles smoothly, and pulls real strong. I couldnt ask for more. I just cant wait till she is broken in and I can have a little fun with her . Soon the cats will be punched and the exhaust will be buttoned up so that she can shoot some flames. Also Sam I might need you to build me a controlable rev limiter.

If it wasnt for this car I would have never joined this club. If it wasnt for the great people that I met my car would be in a crusher. I just want to say thanks to all of you guys.

Also here is what was in my old motor if anyone was wondering lol. My Frankenstein consisted of an S5 and an S4 rotor housing, S4 Rotors, (2) S4 irons and 1 S5 iron, Front S5 Counter weight, and an S4 Flywheel. So basically it was a disaster waiting to happen. I just cant believe it lasted 80,000 miles that way. But now my 7 will be proper and make more power than a stock S5 Vert. Shibby!!!

i vote for next sunday. My ol' gal is ready to rock and roll and im itching to get her out to play I drove her about 30 minutes today, and she was one happy camper. But, I got pulled over by one of charlotte's finest because apparently there's a block on my tag because I havent paid the 19 dollar taxes on it......... WTF is what I say. lol the funniest part is I havent recieved a tax bill in the mail, and my tag doesnt expire until march 15th lol

Crap Andre. Of all things to get pulled for....... I'm just glad that it wasn't the exhaust that got you pulled over

Next Sunday should work for me also. That would be good because I have to go into the hospital after next Sunday. I have been working on a few things on the turbo FB here lately. New Borla muffler and oh yeah........Power Steering!!!!!!!
