Ahhh im freakn ****ed right now

I was drivn my car to a bar to watch the game tonight, and when im about to get there my car starts spurting, then just dies in the middle of the road, I had just enough power to pull into a parking lot. I stop the car pop the hood, I check the oil and tranny fluid and they are fine even though my oil light came on with the CEL. Just before the car died the lights got really dim, I didn't have any interior light either. So im thinkn that its the alternator. PFI Must have screwed something up when they relocated the battery to the trunk. Im gonna have the car towed to PFI tommorow to get them to fix it, since they most likely Fu#ked it up. This just ****es me off since they're taking longer to install the turbo then they said they would, and now they screwed up my car which will probably delay the turbo even more.

i know how that feels .. have you checked the alternator belts? I had a similar experience going on slowly when suddenly i heard a clunky sound and all the lights came on on the dash.. pulled over and found out the pulley belt tenioner broke up! totally sucked, lucky i was close to home.

Hey man, be happy it's BOOST! Did you really expect to have no troubles with a turbo kit? This doesn't seem like a huge problem too..

So that is going to be delayed too? That does suck, but I'm sure when it's all in you won't even have the time to look back on this.

It's tough being a Philly sports fan to say the least, always the same with the Flyers, Sixers, Eagles. Though the Sixers were warriors cause nobody thought they'd actually take LA that year. One of my buddies is a die-hard Oakland fan right down to the tatoo on his leg! So at least we got somebody to root for next week.
