I'd install a flux capacitor but then I'd probably get pulled over for flashy interior lights...
Or for going 88MPH all the time.
However, this may help me with my delivery times. Although a time pauser would be best for that
Tivo capacitor?

I picked up my new B6 bottom end from the machine shop yesterday and ordered the ACL race bearing kit and ARP main studs! Man I miss boost
Im not driving a Festiva because I'm poor. I drive a Festiva because i want to!

What happens when you corner hard? Do they rub then?
My wheels are ICW "Something Or Others", 7 spokes, allegedly 38mm offset, but they are WIDE (for a Festiva anyway), thus necessitating spacers. I've heard that if I install an Aspire rear strut/shock, its spring perch is higher off the tire and the spacer issue will likely be a moot point then.
I can't usually get too aggressive with it because I always have my son strapped in the front seat and it's never running quite right...
But when I hit 60, 65, I pretty much don't slow down, so curves with 45mph safety sign aren't making them rub either.
E-for-E trans swap. Gotta use what I have. Been missing sitting in that seat pretty bad. Next up: warranty LCAs.

The lines have a coating of oil in them and the canister is catching some oil. I unscrewed the cap from the bottom and oil drained out. It hasn't showed up in the sight glass yet.
