    Murilee, my sexy vixen-- did you ever manage to pull off that remote-turbocharger setup?


    By the tone you use now to describe remote turbocharging (namely GODAWFUL) I'll take it you've since given up?

    Yet another kick-ass powerplant from Chrysler. And the government doesn't want to bail them out. Such a waste.

    @DrElectro: Problem is, the last kick-ass powerplant they ever developed was the wedge engine, back in the '60s. I love Mopars, I really do, but the staggering zombie that is the current Chrysler Corporation deserves a shotgun blast to the cranium.

    @VTEC: If I were a middle aged woman of moderate means and a husband with a good pension, I would consider a TT as a nice car to not take care of and park just too closely to concrete abutments and Nissan Pathfinders.


    Because scrapes, scratches, and wrinkles give a car character. And no other vehicle does that better than an Audi. Think of the character of a gunmetal gray Audi with yellow safety paint scraped down her flanks. And if I know something, it is that nobody gives better scrapes and scratches with wrinkles better than a cougar..I, eh, mean middle aged women.
