Work has been truly shitty this year... This engine thing is definitely on hold... at least Yoshida still drives well... I don't remember if I posted but I was getting some seriously annoying rattles on the car... I started looking and was able to find about 8 things that were loose... got rid of a lot of rattles but the main new one was still there... I removed the undercarriage plastic protection plates and discovered that one of the motor mounts was coming loose... Yikes... tightened it up, and car is relatively rattle free... Also discovered a ripper hose from the supercharger, fixed that and cars acceleration is smoother... I attributed this loss of power to getting the straight pipe because I started noticing it a couple weeks after getting the exhaust done... That was not the problem... So anyways... I hope work picks up... soon...
