    I'm retarded or something

    I will be straight with you. Don't do anymore work on your car if you can't do this by yourself. There is no shame in paying somebody else to do it.

    Help please!

    The burp is an air pocket. Getting it out is a good thing. The stuff may have simply been contaminates settled in the bottom of the block. Assuming no BHG. You need to retest compression with a different tester, or a different person doing it. There are things that can give a higher reason...

    What size turbo would I need to kill a C5 on the fw??

    And that has nothing to do with it being 400 cubes, but the head/cam/intake package.

    Get the factory electrical wiring diagram for your year. All you do is change the power source for the fog light relay. It comes from the headlights, and you are changing it to a constant or IGN on source.

    ROTM: MAY Jeff Whiting AKA Red Dragon

    I like that interior. I like the velour more than leather. It looks like new. And I like the mods. Nothing outrageous or frivilous. Definately a good choice.

    What size turbo would I need to kill a C5 on the fw??

    Not quite. More displacement pulls ahead on the long straights. Boost is simply artificial displacement. And cylinder arrangement is a long way from being a very important factor. An engine loses efficency on top due to cam timing and intake manifold design. That and cylinder head port size...

    driveablility issues

    If you interup power to the ECU, the theft deterent computer thinks the car is being hotwired and disables starting. Everytime that happens, you must reset with the key in the driver door. Evidence of antitheft engagement is the horn for a minute and headlights. I don't think the hor keeps going...

    stock fuel system

    Stage 3 is a small turbo. That isn't really saying much. An upgraded fuel pump is cheap insurance. 440's work to about 400, and quickly reach max duty cycle. Don't go cheap on the fuel system.

    radio wires

    You should really get ahold of the factory electrical wiring diagram. You can buy an adapter to splice onto also at most audio stores.

    Al Gores new "farenhate 9-11" type movie

    Of course not, but he is left of what he campaigned. Same as dad. Dad promised 4 more years of Reagan and raised taxes on the nations achievers. (making the rich pay their fari share lie) Still right wing though.

    My fellow americans... (Warning: US Politics)

    So you think all the rapist and murderers should go free? How can you quote this when you state it is a 2000 year old work of fiction. You can't have it both ways. Quite the double standard. Don't impose your persoal morrality on me. Quite the double standard. If there was one thing the Lord...

    Tire width pictures!

    Perhaps you direct that to MKIV.com Anybody with ABS had an issue with premature activation or the light on with a taller tire in the rear? In theory, it should be ok. The speed signal will be slower than the rest, but it won't be showing a lockup.

    89-92 stock body panels and sawblades really do it for me. What can I say. The only color I don't like is the sky blue, or light blue, whatever you want to call it. Sorry OneJoeZee. But stock paneled, black, red, dark blue, white package including wheels, best looking car produced of all...

    My fellow americans... (Warning: US Politics)

    You didnt answer the main question, you redirected the debate. Who decides what is right and wrong? Answer the question. The majority? When majority rules, the rights of minorities are trampled. Don't believe it? Ask a black man.

    Are you payint attention? When did I defend anybody in this thread except Michael Moore's right to a political opinion. :stickpoke Who can be described in what manner? That Bush is more to the left than he campaigned as? Of course that is the case. But he is still far to the right of the...
