Love the TDI. I really like the Diesel return lines were you get them and was it hard to change? Mine have this slight leak on then so I have to change them.

Lol, thanks Hondoo. When Im done it will be about 180hp and 300 ft/lbs of torque and will do about mid 14s in the 1/4 mile. Not to mention killer 40 to 130mph times. I got a bug since its fun to beat people with a gay car, haha.

Don't let people call you gay because of this, that is one masculine bug.
