Really? I've got mine set at 6k now, but its mainly due to the slightly laggier turbo. May have to set mine back to 5500.

Yea i'm on aftermarket clutch as well. Probably helped a little bit. Sure made it smell great! The poor girl holding the green flag @ the starting line was probably suffocating from it though

I was wondering if anyone local has any IX struts laying around that they'd be willing to sell. My car has 55k on the stock struts and its probably about time to change them out. If anyone has any let me know.

Well i believe my polisher is out of comission for now. I'm working on getting a new one under warranty, but for now I won't be doing any detailing until this gets fixed.

I'm really PO'd cause I've just started getting a good bit of business.

Sorry to hear that bud....I'd go pick up a cheapy @ harbor freights just to hold you until you can get yours warrantied, just so you dont lose out on the detailing business. Its your only means of income, aside from when you show leg on 4th street.

But really, I'll buy you one if you give me a couple free details

lol I've actually got a cheap polisher from Harbor Freight, but I don't have all the pads I need for it. Also, it sucks... It causes too much pad hop from the pads I do have and the last thing I need is to burn someones paint because of a crappy polisher.
