Thanks for a great deal Mario and have a good weekend.

Next problem - HEAT!!! Gonna have to add an electric heater so I can take advantage of winter driving in the Speedster. Heck I may even put the top up.... :mrgreen:

Try putting in an electric seat heater speedy......That might keep you warm enough.

I looked into them for my buggy but haven't done it yet. The problem here is it is usually raining when it is cold..... :roll:

Good idea Clonebug! Come to think of it I already have a heated/massage cushion that covers the bottom and back of the seat that someone gave me for a present a year or two ago and I don't believe I ever tried it out. It plugs into the 12 volt socket so I'll give that a shot and see how it works....if I didn't re-gift it to someone else. :mrgreen:

I would but it's just to damn cold right now... And it takes another 10 or 15 minutes in the morning to get out, I already get to work at the bell and I'm sure as hell not a morning person ;) And I don't have wipers or a wiper motor in the car right now just sweet sweet rain-x.

Good going Mario! No problems with the Speedster since I installed the new wastegate. I'm keeping it here at work so I can toy around with it here on the property when the pavement is dry. I'm currently wetsanding my new paint job, (those of us that are not professional painters turn into professional wetsanders) but took it out yesterday for some laps around the factory. Man does it love this cold weather and I can hit 100 and slow down fast enough on the back side of the factory before wiping out the fire hydrant and rolling through the fence onto the airport runway. :mrgreen:

Wheels up!! It would really be nice to be able to get onto the runway without being shot and have some fun without having to worry about being pulled over for exhibition or racing. Right now it would just be nice to have decent enough weather to take it outside. We are under a blizzard watch. This is the desert for petes sake where a blizzard is an ice cream treat from Dairy Queen!!! Earlier this year it was forcasted that we would have a drier and warmer winter than normal.... not really sure what it takes to become a meteorologist but I think I'm just as qualified to forcast what's coming just as much as they are if not more. I predict wide showers of darkness about 6pm this evening. :mrgreen:

Well I don't have any problems so I must be doing something right. I do need to pull the Blowoff valve, The spring is too strong . I do need to change my alki injection. It is too much for 4000' I could change the jetting too but i rather be rich here and right everywhere else.
