God damn, where were you a week ago? I got so frustrated with the POS installer tool I didnt touch the car til last night. Even then I cut off the bolt that threads into the pump and impacted the nut down.

Hey, We all live and learn.... Hell I also have done some stupid **** too. How many times I changed a hard or expensive part first to find out later that It was a inexpensive or easy part to fix. ******* hate this hobby sometimes....

Got the new lines as well as the cooler on, and I have a leak at one of the fittings that keeps sucking air in :-(. Going to cut the braided hose back and try again. If it doesnt work, Im ditching the PS cooler altogether. Maiden voyage should be tomorrow, its thawing a **** ton here. Wish me luck lol

****.....What else could happen, right! I don't know too much about racks. Is the seal repairable. I would assume it is.

Just put a new rack in.

I got my exhaust on today and found the killer exhaust leak on the DS head. The car is so quiet with the exhaust on it I love it! Now I have to raise it because the exhaust is scraping the ground.

Got it all figured out today. Didnt get to take her out but I let her idle in the garage for a while to help burn off some of that PS fluid that was leaked all over the exhaust parts. Probably gonna smoke for a while lol
