Where the heck Lefix went?
I mean, all this hype about his turbo.. Can he do it? or will he blow himself up?
now where is he?

...he blew up. :(

R.I.P. :cheers:

nope, im not at least

...he blew up. :(

R.I.P. :cheers:


For real?? I would hate to say something mean like "i told you so" without confirmation...

not really his fault he had to rebuild his turbo before he could have any fun though. now whether he caused that himself or not i dont know, but you get what im saying. thats the last news i heard about him. whether to rebuild it himself, or have someone do it. my guess is the latter of the 2, hence no recent news.

i told him to not buy that turbo a few times.... lol

lol we all did
he had a flame war with me -.-

i've told a lot of people a lot of things, but few of them listen....generally they turn out this way too :p

so by my guess, hes livin pretty good right now.

wow, that looks like a royal cluster fuck....

Guess not many people believe in clean setups, too many people believe in function > form..

Function + form > Choppy looking setup

and..

"-HPTuner TUNED by Myself =] " -- that would worry me.

yeah, after all the money put into that newer low mileage car, you'd think he would spend just a little bit more to have it professionally tuned, just for the security of knowing its not gonna fuck up, for the security of knowing he's not about to throw thousands of dollars right down the pisser

or maybe he wants it to blow up, maybe he's just dying to redo the internals

if he blows it up he'll rebuild himself and then god only knows how long that'll last...w/e

you know...he could invest in a couple zip ties....:grinyes:

or better yet, a professional tune...that would do wonders for someone who has no idea how to tune a car. I like the fact that he wants to learn, but its like picking up a book written in Latin and trying to "figure it out"....it just doesn't work unless you have a starting point

then uses a translator (our opinions+your guy's knowledge) and then bash on it, and not accept what he hears

i loved how he would say one thing, then go against it as he heard another.

...in the end, its not my car, not my money and not my headache. I'm living life w/ a good boosted car that runs well. So...to sum it all up: I really dont care what people do. I give them the tools to do the right thing and from then on, its their problem because you can only hold someone's hand for so long...

He got the turbo rebuilt and apparently is running good now...
