My internet connection is currently dead at home so I'm only checking the site at work.

I need to get that fixed.

We're here, we just dont seem to be a questioning bunch, I guess............................................. .................................................. ..................................................

I got advanced tickets for Lord of the Rings online, I bought my Father in Law Zaino for XMas for his C5, and my wife had to drive the perfectly, totally detailed and polished C5 today because her Volvo is in the shop. She didnt like the idea of renting a car. And I wasnt going to risk sleeping on the couch to suggest that she then re-detail it ;-)
Thats all the news that is the news.......... <img src="gr_emb.gif" border="0">

And oh yeah...

The Labor rate for the Volvo shop is 85 DOLLARS A FREAKIN HOUR.

I f^&*ing HATE Volvo service. It makes Chevy Service look REALLY good. Imagine THAT.

It's hard to check this board 3 times per day while I'm on vacation. I'm at my sister's & have to use her computer. <img src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" border="0">

I'm here once a day though. <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">

Jon C - Keep us updated on the SC install. As i'm very interested in seeing what kind of numbers the SC gives a H/C equipt car, and to find out if any problems were encountered during install.

Jon C - You're actually a good test case, from my perspective, since we both have very similar setups. <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0"> If you don't mind me asking what kind of numbers is your car pulling(dyno and track)?
