Wow!! Having a Turbo VG must really suck!

Man, there are so many people on the forum lately that have turbo 3rdGen Maximas! I just feel so bad for them. All of them have broken cameras, broken scanners, and lost dyno sheets. They have the worst luck finding an open track too. I guess the turbo conversions just take a lot out of a person. I mean, it seems like everyone's dad, or best friend, or mechanic is no longer around to talk about the turbo. It must be a lonely existence.

I really feel for these people because I have the same problem. I swapped in a twin turbo 8.0 liter V-10 engine out of Viper last week. Unfortunately, it has been raining lately so I couldn't go to the track. I spilled coffee on my scanner and digital cammera, and my mechanic and best friend got killed by a rabid chipmunk.

Trying to steal the glory from the guy that won the Darwin Award a few years back?

By the way, how the heck do you put a picture on these things. I can't figure out the dumb vb thing. Like, where do i need to store the picture to put the thing on here. Thanks.

You guys shouldn't laugh though...I finally got my twin turbo project completed last week, and when I went to dyno it, I turned boost up to 15 psi and I broke the dyno machine. They are the only place that will dyno my car too.
