After the turbo R+R, I had a happy nice road trip yesterday in my turbo... 3 hrs down to Ohio to visit Honda and 3 hrs back... turned an easy 25mpg down, maybe even higher on the return... only parts that sucked were no cruise control and having to get up at 4:30AM - aka O-Dark-Hundred - to make an 8AM meeting...

Oh, yeah, and getting back on $hitty Detroit roads and bouncing all over...

I second that road thing. They really suck if you have a nice tight suspension. Bang... bang... rattle... rattle...and God forbid you hit a patch of road that MDOT just repaired, then you are liable to loose a rim.

Glad to hear the trip was a success though.

LOL! Yeah...

Good luck with your new/proposed shop, BTW...

We'll be out racing this weekend at Waterford, BTW...
