Took it out for a nice drive to check on some aquarium prices. Hit 68F today and was 72F yesterday!

Got my car back with stock turbo.
tech checked the evap and said it was OK.
but he had to replace the bolts of dp-turbo coz they had lost their (well, how is it called...hmmmm)...
anyways bolts were flat.
new bolts 35euros ($45) !!!!!
will be running the stock tune for some miles to get the new turbo to work a bit before flashing to my old stock turbo tune!

Nobody noticed my interlaced offering in the post above... So started a new Classified...

@Arabas, glad to see things are coming together for you.
@POS VETT, glad you have the disease.

It's always there. My motto is "stock sucks!".

Well, I contacted the Corvette god and he said he would take the Solstice, YAY! It needs several things as far as warranty work goes. Then it will get an alignment (I promise it will have more negative camber in the front than in the back) and if he could do it, a GMPP tune.

Nothing yet today, but it's 48 degrees. So, I'm dropping my top on the way home!

Careful Smartin...going home topless could get you in trouble. I'm also certain that would collect numerous admiring glances for you and the car.

Thanks, Jeff. I appreciate that. I did it anyway.

Rotated the tires and changed the battery.

MoonDog · « **Reply #2060 on:** January 20, 2011, 08:26:48 PM »

On Saturday, I painted the Fuse Box cover in Silver Chrome and yesterday I bought a Kenwood DNX6960 DVD/CD/Nav unit

So, now I'm counting the days for a little nicer weather until I take for the Pro install

Brad Kenny · « **Reply #2061 on:** January 20, 2011, 09:00:14 PM »

Going topless is legal in Ontario but that's something for an entirely different off topic thread.
