thats why i'm gonna marry her...

so my fiance got in my car this morning and asked me, "when are you gonna make this car fast?"

yes oh god yes!!! i was waiting for her to say something like that. i have driven reasonably fast cars since i've known her and this has been the first car which is the complete opposite of those. so it think she is missing the "feel" of the other cars.

so i turned to her and asked "why, what do you mean?"
she answered, "this cars really slow, you gotta do something about it."

so i told her my plans of putting a turbo and she said that was great as long as i don't dip into the wedding fund.

anyways i already got the turbo, is a used k03 vw turbo and i also got the flange from zpi. can't wait to get some extra hours at work and buy some more parts!

Lol, if no sisters, how bout cousins?

Yea, my girlfriend only complains about the car, I spent a measly 500 bucks on the car and she flipped...then shes the one that owes me almost twice that.

Go for it!

Just make sure we get a full look at your turbo setup.
