    ticking noise problem.

    Stupid question, any fuel leaking anywhere you can tell? Drive it around the block or something then park it(engine off) and look for fuel around the rail/injectors. I had an odd ticking and weird feel while driving one time. Turned out an injector o-ring was leaking air at idle, fuel while...

    Turbochargers rob your engine of power....

    Just a stupid idea, why not for a track only type car run a 2nd motor to power the turbo? Basicaly a small gas powered engine in the trunk(whever) to power a turbo to create boost, leaving the exhaust totally free? Is it just not worth it because turbos only rob a minor amount of power? It...

    Drifting

    Dont forget tires cost a fortune. Drifting is not a sport to enter on a tight budget, let alone the wrong car to begin with. No budget, poor car choice and your already 2 steps behind and not being in cali is 3rd strike.

    Mail Fraud?

    Did you pay with a credit card, go to them quickly. Usually CC companys want to keep your bussiness and do alot to help you. If you used paypal file a complaint there too, but id still call the CC company.

    Type of Vented Gas Cap

    The people who remove it just for looks can replace it with a small hidden one. At that point it just becomes a case of being lazy maybe. Its easy to rip it out and plug the lines, but takes a few minutes to bolt a new one in.
