yeah... that's all I got. holes

 

Its a brand new AP2 w/ only 7 miles.... Already w/ everything new... even a freakin clutch.


I got a freakin hell of a deal...I'll tell some close peeps thru PM even thy wanna know the price ...

I was going 105 when the damage happened. Threw a hole next to every cylinder except #3

It was oil pump failure, ie lack of pressure. This engine is known for it. If I had a gauge I might have possibly saved it. They say I probably lost pressure about 1 to 2 miles before it happened. Nothing I could have done... but 2.2L, 9k redline... 214 to the rear ....

I'm excited....

 

w00t w00t

Remember to run the new one in before you hit 105 again!

 

drive up to philly when I come. or else.

 

I've heard this about the oil pump, but you're the first person who I know who got bitten by it, J. A couple of my buds in NH who work on the car extensively think the stock oil pump is a real POS.

I think I'm going to have my preemptively replaced soon.

That's great that you got a great deal. Is it an MY06?? Do you have drive-by-wire? I imagine not, but just curious.

 

Of course.... but when you coming....

Chaz, Its I think an '04. It is one of the train wreck engines...but I did not get the tranny. Don't need it there's nothing wrong with mine anyway. Alot of people have had the oil pump do damage...I'd replace it anyway... I'm getting new a/c as well and alot of other new parts. I'll be fixing my exhaust finally and my BuddyClubs will be on before I roll her out.

I will have break in period again and I'm going to have to document the mileage since I'm keeping my ECU. Who wants 8k anyway

 

8k is for people who never tasted 9k

 

aiming for october sometime, more details to follow...

 

I've had 9k.. wasn't that special.. I'll take my 8k setup over the 9k anyday

 

Hey Jake Haven't talked to you in a looooooooong time... never tried the 8k and never want to
