Congrats on going F/I!

Hopefully I will stop being a pansy and convince my wife to let me do it when I get back from Germany. My 8 is in CA with my parents until I get back...

Hey Sterling!! I was wondering how you were doing, hadn't heard from you in a while. You're already in Germany right?

Yup, got our house (living on base) and our stuff. Wife is still decorating, but everything is coming together.

We are having a blast too. The Germans really know how to have fun

So what car did you take?

I have a buddy that works at Stuttgart.

Very cool. Glad you made it safe.

Just got me Electronic Boost Controller in so hopefully my issues will be solved. Will be re-tuning within the next week.

We took our Honda Odyssey, which was really the only option as my wife and three kids won't fit in the 8 :lol:

I will. Got the EBC installed and on Saturday will be re-tuning. New thread will come after.

What time is it for you as of this post? 1230?

I am 8 hours ahead of you. So even though you are boosted if we raced I would win, :lol:

Just noticed that you have two 8s?! Parts?

LOL. But your 8 is in Cali so I win by 2 hrs.

Parts and or new DD.

And an update. I won't be getting re-tuned on saturday.

Boost Creep has a full scheduel so it looks like it will be 1 week from tomorrow. Counting down the seconds. 606,600 seconds to go. :eek:

Ouch, all that power and can;t mash the pedal, :lol:

Can't wait to hear about it when it is done.

I know. It's not fun going from boost to boostless. but it will be worth the wait.

Better than a blown motor, right?
