Default Finally

Last night at the posers was the first time in a very long time my scoob was running like a dream, FULLLLL POWER which just pulled & pulled so much it blu the pipe off the front mount & also created an air leak from the turbo, So it's time to start tightening everything down, for a while it was like when I first bought her

Strange thing on the way home the temp gauge when down to cold & heating went cold I hope this isn't a major problem any ideas anybody?

So that's what we could hear. Mind you it was barely audible over the noise from that heat shield.
