On stock wheels, you should probably be on the high side. Maybe 40-42psi

We'll get you, you can enjoy it while working the tent.

I run mine at 38/36 F&R, I'm on 9.5's though.

Wow- So my coworker ordered an iPad for the new owner of our company. he next day ordered it from Amazon for $1000 and then was trying to open it but had trouble. I ripped through the box trying to open it and then he mentions it was for the new owner (aka a guy who runs a 36 billion dollar company)
well too late I rip it open and find this.

marc, if you're afraid of running the motor why not take pete's suggestion with the dino oil but pour it in with the drain plug off so you can more or less rinse it out.

i'm going to run 46 front and 75 rear on sunday. i want to drift. im DK

Wow, someone needs to step away from the bong before workin on their car!

dude, whats done is done, you drained it, maybe run a quart or two extra thru there. Fill it up and run it, whatever is not supposed to be there will either burn off or cause a problem, like eat away a seal or something. At this point put new oil in and forget about it until theres a problem. Its not like you can fix stupid anyways sorry man, I catch ish all the time about my antics, so had to give it a little.

Some past dumb things:
Dropped my car off 4 jack stands at FedEx field in front of alot of peeps, Jerry Enger came runnning with a aluminum jack thinking I was trapped, it was kind of funny after it happened.
Did not torque my lugs correctly after switching tires from an Autox, lost a wheel at approx. 70 mph on turnpike.
Gapped my spark plugs wrong and spent approx a $1000 chasing a phantom problem... that went on for months

For anyone interested; I just put a set of EBC Greenstuff front pads on my Audi, and they are very nice. They stop noticeably better than OEM Audi pads, and they were $60 shipped. I don't think that they would be a good Evo pad, but they seem to be a good option for a beater/daily driver.
