Default So I went to go pressure test a friends S4 for him.. and well this is what I found..

He said the dealership put a new TBB about 5,ooo miles ago, and that hes been running the X-chip the whole time, BUT he didn't get one code.. I vagged the car myself and there was nothing.. I pressure tested the car about 2-3 months ago and knew there was a leak by the TBB but he told me it would have to wait.. So, hes been driving the car for 2-3 months and not one code.. I thought it was a little weird that he didn't get a code because honestly, this TBB is ALL f---ked up.. Hes got about 3 rips in the TBB, one being MAJOR... Does X not like to throw codes or something?

My trusty air tank.. =)

And, my newest toy... A little Jimmy rigged, but its not staying in for too long.. =) SWSHHH.. SWSsHHHH Man do I love this thing.. For the 30mins that I was on the highway I was able to get 2 cars to run me by just blowing some air off.. I guess thats the turbo way of saying Ill kick yo ***.. If anyone ever thought for one second that I didn't want to race before, now they know.. lol

As for last time we pressure tested it, I dunno.. He figured the car was running awesome, so it can't be that bad.. but it was ..
