You guys are bursting my bubble. That's not very nice... :-(
So, what I'm hearing, then, is that I should start skipping some oil
changes and not shift below 6 grand to speed things up...? ;-)
Anywho, I've got the crappy exhaust system in the Jetta, and I was
planning on doing away with it as part of the whole process. And a cam
is in the planning, too.
Of course, this is probably all moot with that exhaust... :-p

'82 Scirocco <-- sold :-(
'85 Jetta
'87 Porsche 944
