Message	But I own this car because I know of what can(and will) happen, and I'm willing to accept it. This also isn't my daily driver, so if catastrophic things like this happen I just uninsure it and deal with it when I want. This also gives me a chance to throw some high compression pistons on e85 and see how she does..and If I can sell my Sport 530s I'll throw some bigger turbos on. Plus, it'll keep me busy all winter.
