Maybe I can just rob the dealers. Seems like it would be much easier. What they gonna do? Go to the police?

I was on the phone with Vortech for about a half hour, they're about an hour away from me. The tech was checking out my build on Instagram and was asking me a bunch of questions since he has a g35 with his own custom a2a kit. My build has some one off mods on it that he was interested in. I gave him information on the mods so he said he'll give me wholesale cost on a new blower. Good thing I just had that cjm oil pan installed, now I can go with an external fed sc.

At least you were expecting it to let go at some point pushing it like that.

Cant argue with wholesale.

I couldn't tell where the noise was coming from so I had it towed to the shop that built it. I should know for sure tomorrow if it's the sc but I'm 99% sure it is.

I was hoping to buy a new one before this one let go though so I could sell it a recoup some of the money. It has (had) good upgrades to it and would hold up well for someone not tryi g to push the limits like I did.

I was surprised when he offered me the price he did. The problem is, I have to pay 10% sales tax. I may have to ship it to someone here (did you hear that Hotrodz) so I can avoid $300 in sales tax.

I bought several containers of 0w-20 and oil filters for the Fit less than 3 weeks before it was totaled

I'd have sent them your way if I didn't have a local buddy I could shove them off on

Relaxing in Galveston with a beer in hand. Long day. Another one starts early again tomorrow. Hopefully we'll be done around lunch so I can make it home in time for some deliveries that are scheduled and need signature.
