I knew I could count on you... I need the rectangular ones that hold the window to the regulator...

Jeremy my coolant left a puddle at the meet last night. Since the snow melted and all the cold weather is gone I have not been looking any coolant. I topped it off yesterday morning just because and went to work. No puddle at work no drip but when I met up with corey from syracuse and we boosted our way into movies parking lot my car left a pretty decent size puddle. I came home and this morning no puddle? I am so confused... Is it because i drove it hard or something? I remember you were saying where it could be coming from. I forgot the name of it.

back of engine bay, probably the coolant flange (real PITA to install right the first time). Front of engine bay, it might be the coolant line that goes to the turbo... that's what leaking slightly on mine (and has similar leaking characteristics, sometimes a lot, sometimes none at all...)

could be turbo line because i usually never boost high when i DD car but last night i was doing pulls with the Nogaro B6 S4 on the way to meet and back so possibly that caused it?

Thanks to everyone who came out, yesterday was awesome. I saw at one point 22 cars that's a great turnout, some cars got minor problems solved and parts got swapped, upgrades done, and everyone was willing to lend a hand. Chris deep fried everything we could think of and I think the keg is damn near empty, that is what I call a ******* good day!

Bill, Thank you and your wife for hosting us last night at your house. You always make us feel like family Jeremy, What more can I say when it comes this GTG... Thank you for making this an event I try not to miss every year. See you guys this summer!

Joon!.... How much torque is required to bolt down a AWM valve cover? LOL.

Chris, That deep fryer is the shizz!

Glad you guys all made it here and get home safe (Erik, I'm talking to you in particular). Kickass turnout, no casualties, no arrests (although the state troopers had the roads around Bill's house staked out so our status is moving up!), and we got some work done. You guys that had work done, hope you feel more secure with your car's. Alex, I can't believe you're trying to go lower. Much more and you're gonna be laying seat tracks!

To the guys that weren't able to make it, hopefully next time you can. From the pics that I hope everyone will be posting, you'll see some of the good times you unfortunately missed.

Chris, the fryer has to be a permanent road trip partner from now on. No way around that lol.

Let's get some pics posted guys - it was a great weekend. How 'bout sharing?

Even tho I missed half of the meet and came late on saturday I'm glad i've met few new faces Dave, Joe, Nick, Chris, Cory and Bill's Wife. To those who I missed this meet I promise i will do whatever it takes to have a complete day off and make it on time next time. Also wanted to say GOOD JOB on all the cars. Cars looked amazing! I have pictures from the Tuner Crash Night I will post them up as soon as I edit them.
Everyone drive safe and enjoy your sunny sunday
