Stronger? is that how it feels? you should call asap and set an appointment. you really should have taken it back that very second.
I mean when I started it, it felt better, but as soon as I left the shop it turned on. I checked it when I got home and deleted it then it came back. I'm gonna call tomorrow and explain the situation, but I'm not gonna be able to leave it until tomorrow or Sunday.

make sure you do so and explain to them that they gave it to you in that condition.

Well I spoke to the mechanic who did it and explained the situation. He said that it might've moved since it's underneath the intake or what not, so I'm just gonna go tomorrow so they can fix it.

Got a 90 on the first test of the year. Idk why but my brain locked up when it asked what the throwout bearing did.

:( that is sad. I work in a somewhat low income area, close to a really low income area. So a large portion of our customers are freaking crackheads that just complain about our prices :lol:

It was confusing at first haha. Like how when you push the clutch in, the hydraulic fluid pulls the push rod on the slave cylinder which pulls the fork and that pulls the pressure plate out releasing the clutch from the flywheel (disengaging) and it was just confusing and overwhelming at first on how it worked, but I have a great teacher who lays it out very easily.

Speaking about school, I start Tuesday. Last 2 classes of the semester before I transfer to Cal State hopefully. Going to run errands in a bit then do some house chores after.

Got bored and decided to venture to the other side of the river and up the mountain. This is what I saw along my travels. Simply amazing looking over the landscape.

Good!! Then come boost my VR6.... :lol: :lol: :twisted:
I had a question on the VR6. How easy are they to boost? And I don't know if there's a major difference between the MK4 (which is yours, right?) and the newer... let's say.... CC =)

As easy as any other motor if you have the means. Problem with the VR6 motors is that they inherently run hot. That is why there is a secondary water pump that runs after I shut off the car that continues to push the coolant through the system until it is cooled down.

Mine is the first year for the 24 valve 2.8 liter (up to 2002 the VR6 was only 12 valve) and the CC carries that 3.6 liter 24 valve engine. Mine is also MPI injection where the CC VR6 is the new FSI injection.

Newer VR6's are just bigger in size and also have about 100HP more that what mine has. Difference is that the CC is a pretty heavy car to pull around.

Very true. I was just interested in it. I think it would be cool :what: And since VW seems to be really good at de-tuning their vehicles for sale here in the US they can be capable of more. Hence why a chip does wonders on a VW vs. a Honda.
