Sheesh, I always thought you were a bit heavier than that Dustin. I'm only 5'8", about 125 lbs before a good duece... So what I'm trying to say is that Albert is like a log manifold, if said log was an oak, or redwood. Yes, that was a fat joke. :p Looks like my old interior... miss that car...

Make something similar to the stock heat shields... not sure what exactly that material is, but it does a damned good job, pretty similar to what Nash said.

Couldn't hurt to check that your timing is still where it should be, mechanically. Buddy of mine had his car at BDC rather than TDC when doing his timing belt, car ran, but ran rather funny until that was straightened out. ;)

Does it help if you hold your foot on the throttle when you press in the clutch? You say you ruled out the ISCV, but it's sounding very similar to what mine did. Does manually holding the throttle in keep it from stalling?

Hmm, has no one suggested using the key to try opening the glovebox? I know they can act funny, but I've never failed to open mine with the key...

Nope. :naughty: I gotta say though... that many wings, you'd think they were at an airport...

I like the idea, but you're going to need to look at the wiring diagram in the TSRM to see if it will even be possible. If you do this, may I suggest that you paint over the "CRUISE" lettering, then label button with "AWESOME"? ;)

Kinda looks like a pair of Chimaera eyes, but on a car... How well do they put light onto the road in front of you?

Routing of the IC piping looks quite similar to Tyler's car... I forget his screen name on here, but it's a pretty well sorted car. Is coating the pipes an option?

Not bad man, I get the feeling this would have been a good candidate for MST3000 or Laugh Trax or whatever it is they're calling themselves these days...

I may have a rather interesting thing to post in here tomorrow... have to see how tonight goes. ;)

Just saying guys, Albert's like 6'-2", about 140lbs and lives in Phoenix. I stand by my assertion that he is like a log manifold.

Will have to update this post with how much power you eventually make once everything gets straightened out and tuned. I'm running a pretty similar setup in the future.

x2, that does look very nice. Color code? Is it the Toyota 6L9?

Used Miata also makes a damned good daily, however, unlike the VW, I think you'd easily be tempted to mod it. Easy to drive, reasonably cheap, and you'll get at least 25mpg if you weld the throttle to the floor. ;)

I mean, it's funny in general, but specifically, what the hell is that guy walking? Looks like a gopher...

This is why, when posting things from Craigslist, you post the contents of said ad instead of merely a link that will expire. That way, it preserves the fun. ;)

Or, you know... angle them forward to squirt pedestrians or the dumb little shits that run around the neighborhood and think it's fun to stand in the road in front of your oncoming car...

You already are a log manifold dude... long, skinny, and exposed to lots of heat? :naughty: :p

I like the idea of the thread, could be fun to see what pops up in here. :)
