Until then I’ll just clean this turd. Click the image to open in full size.


FYI a 6,000rpm grinder will chuck a polishing brick Mach 2 into your shin and it will hurt.

Got to roll all day Friday like this... until I made it east of the Mississippi. Rain ruined it. Click the image to open in full size.

First full tank didn’t net a bit of difference in mileage. I knew I got my hopes up. Guess we’ll just keep inching along.

I’ve had the homeless truckstop crack heads polish wheels before and not much luck. Had them done in Georgia a few months ago and still chit.

I can get round hole Alcoa’s for $200 each so I’m thinking long and hard about it before I do all 4 trailer axles

I still need to find someone to pawn those goofy covers off on.

You need Leiffi’s bad arse ride. A Volvo doesn’t know what a hill is and can get 10mpg by accident at 1100hp.

You need to give me 10min with that to try something.

I have parts for your superturbo. Turbine is actually from some Cat so they should fit fine, have also CNC file for both turbine and compressor so you dont need to trust some idiot handmachining them to US tolerances.

CNC? We don’t CNC parts here, everything is whittled out of a piece of oak. We’re not as advanced as Finland. I actually don’t know where we would be as a society without all the amazing things to come out of Finland. I remember back when Sven was the first to orbit the earth followed by planting that flag on the moon.

Our hand machined shuttles aren't equipped with super turbos so we tend to run out of power around the tree line.

Sven is a swedish name, but it's okay, I know you know nothing outside USA.

And here I was hoping for you to come back with all the amazing contributions Finland has brought to the world. Or at least a pic of your turbo and dyno sheet from your 1100hp Volvo
