So, caught up with Min on the weekend. Top bloke. He's got a couple of interesting projects going on.
I was pretty impressed with the Megasquirt install. After seeing it and Min explaining it, I reckon it'd have to be the must-do mod for anyone looking to start seriously upping the performance of the engine. And it's relatively cheap, too!
Of course, it might be worth considering selling your 924 and getting a Hyundai Accent...
We hired one to get up to Min's place. It set the new Winter World Record for the Kelowna-to-Richmond run, 3hrs 15mins... on thirty-five bucks worth of gas! Little bugger cruised at 180km/h! And took speed humps at 120km/h!
All in air-conditioned, slush-box-shifting, power-steering, MP3-playing comfort.

True, true, I can't take credit for the record, it was all Keno's doing. _________________ '80 924 Turbo |

I'm just picturing Khal dreaming Blues Clues style:
"We have all 3 clues, you know what that means? It's time for our thinking chair!"... "Our first clue - oil in the coolant.".... "Next, a wet spark plug."... "what's that? she's pissing white smoke?!" - "I know, you own a 924 with a blown head gasket! We've just figured out Blues Clues!" _________________ Mars Red '78 Euro 924 n/a

LOL! Hey, Khal, if you make it up to way up north Minnesota (due south of Winnipeg 3 hrs - well, 2 in that rental), be sure to look me up... (I'm in winter quarters now, till Xmas, then back home to Detroit)...
Though why you'd be up there, God only knows... _________________ Vaughan Scott

Glad you could all have a laugh at my expense...
It's good to see some humour creeping back into the 'board. It was getting a little tense there for a while. _________________ '80 924 Turbo |
