well, last night i got the chance to race a v8 explorer AWD which is supercharged... since out here in michigan its friggin cold i coulnt launch my car properly cuz id spin my wheels everytime... anywhoo, this made him gain a carlength on my, but once i hooked up and started shifting gears i pulled on him like a mo fo...needless to say he cried afterwerds cuz he spent all this money putting a supercharger on a v8 and still couldnt spank a stock I-6 3.0... pretty cool huh?

all the dudes at his work were like "oh youll spank him no prob", once they saw what happened all they could say was "man does that bimmer run"

A friend of mine has a supercharged 4Runner that I can take, but hey it's a suv and not designed to go fast.... hook it up to my car and each start pulling and you can guess who would win that tug of war contest :)

Have any more problems after the miss shift?
I got my car back from TC Kline (3.2L OBD1 conv)
and 1300 miles later...blown engine again.
He said the oil pump hasn't working properly
and starved the engine for oil which destroyed
the bearrings and crank. He's throwing another
brand new 3.2L into it next month. Hopefully, I
have better success with this one. Damn, that
makes three engines in only 1 year 3 months!
Good luck!:bawl

The only warning sign was the idiot light in the
dashed flickered a couple times for only a second
or two the week before the pump went.:321
I plan to install some gauges, oil pressure,
water temp, and volts when I get my car back.
