You said it. I'm fed up with the car after this month long ordeal. If its not fixed soon I very well might stock out and sell the car.

Started down this road on 3/26, got all my parts together about two months ago, installed a month ago and have been tracking problems ever since. Way too much time and money has been spent on simple bolt-on's.

I still enjoy my Speed, 'naturally' so to speak. Yes, the quest for speed/improvement is a haunting addiction. But ever since I quit, cold turkey- I've never looked back.

The MS6 is a beaut...and still catches my attention everytime I see one pass me. That in itself is reason enough to keep it. (modless; IMHO)

I agree and disagree. Get some good help on tracking down the problem, get it running and enjoy. If you go back to stock, keep the wheels and aftermarket lights. Great looking car even if you aren't all bolted!

You are a good tune away from having a good-running beast of a car man. Stick it out just a little bit longer.

I hear that cars donated to charity get a nice tax write-off.

Like erod said, u just need a good tune. Hit me up sometime man, we can work on ur tune and get you running great! You're on the last leg man, don't give up now.

Look at me, I've been without my car for shy of 2 years and still strong! I have big plans, just takes time and patience.

Just installed the tune that the tuner made for me. Cruised around for a bit and did not encounter any engine knock. Air fuel ratio is better, fuel pressure is high.

Car hauls some serious ### right now lol. I'll try to get a video uploaded soon.
