    I run 0# on the street. I start at about 5# on DS and 20# on PS at the track and sometimes make small adjustments from there.

    Missing door key?

    I bought an old Dodge for $25 that didn't have a trunk key. I drove the car to a locksmith and he came out to the parking lot and made a key for me.

    Wayne Rooney's Bicycle kick

    I watched the game on TV live and it was a heck of a goal! It helps that Rooney is my favorite player and MUFC my favorite team. :D I watch more EPL now than American football because I can't stand the 2 hours of commercials during football. :frown:

    The above link is an excellent flow chart to follow. My code 42 was a bad module. You may want to try and borrow a known good module.

    Stock or upgrade?

    If I needed a new turbo I would buy one a bit larger than stock such as the TE-44 or, if you want the car to look original, a TA-49. If your turbo is good and the car is new to you I would not replace it, but if you need to replace I would upgrade.
