Its free and takes about 30 seconds to set one up. It isn't hard at all. There are some other places out there that do the same thing, but photobucket seems to be the best and most commonly used.

You can get over 200 pictures before you need to pay for more storage but you can delete some and upload others when it gets to that

I have 211 pictures currently and it says my storage is 5% full right now.

tried setting up a photobucket, said my e-mail was already in use, then said their password recovery server was down. So i guess no pictures yet.

Just me complaining about my motor being at the machine shop for 3 weeks without much progress. on my last update i saw it bored but still not honed.

i did a couple good pulls with my new motor. i still have some oil burning and now there's some fuel?, burning at idle.
i'll be doing a leakdown and compression test tomorrow. i hope it's the turbo, so i have an excuse to get a new one. :)

on one hand there should be fuel burning at idle that's how your motor is able to idle, however if you're burning fuel outside of your combustion chamber you might have a problem.

yeah. there was a little smoking at idle. it wasn't oil or coolant. the car runs great while driving. it sometimes idles a little low, like it's too rich or something.
i think it has to to with the bov being vented and having the lex/550 combo.

Planning on buying a Tanabe Hyper Medallion Cat back from Inline6performance.com soon, I read a review in the archive section that were praising it but has anyone done any business with them recently? Want to make sure I won't get screwed.

looks clean, i talked to the machine shop today, was told my head would get worked on monday until he figured out my block was already done then he said he was going to try to disassembled my head today, I mentioned the head shouldn't need to come apart as it was already rebuilt and i just wanted to get a lap and cc.

Looks good, but I wonder how much stress that oil bolt will take for turbo retaining. I am seraching to do something like that but else where for a location. The CT26 had a bolt on the turbine hotside for retaining.
yes it did, that's what i'd use for this. I wouldn't be surprised to see the fitting leak when it gets hot
