Car is running good. Got the Wincos 70 window tint all done on all windows to cool things down. So far so good.

The car is running well. Added the sea foam bottle this tank. Replaced the oil pump(?) vacuum line behind the air cleaner box. Installed the new RS engine mounts. Used 1/2"x5" grade 8 bolts with hardware and then a thin jam nylock nut up to the reg nuts. Solid install and they are working well. Bit more noise and vibration at some revs but not bad. Cold shifts seem better a bit. Had the Wincos window tint installed for UV's and heat. Will go again to get the windshield done. Looks good, minimal tint darkening. Installed the poly mounts to the front struts to act as bump stops and hold the bellows up. Need to pick out the old rotten bump stops next time car is in the air so that the new don't bottom out as easily.

Car is running good. Drove with Larry and his Corvette today out to Rockport and he says the lower middle rear lights flicker on hwy. This is the light with the reflector lens and I am not sure he wasn't just seeing the sun light them up. First, only happened northbound and each light was independent of the other. Then west bound on Nunn road he said that only one time did they do it but that they were both lit at the same time. I'm going to have to look into this mystery! Getting window tint next Friday on the rear window and the rear 1/4's. If I like it, will do the front 1/2 of the car. Might install the RS motor mounts this weekend. Added a bottle of the WM SuperTech this tank.

Car is running great. Put the SeaFoam small bottle in this new tank. The last tank had the small bottle of the WM brand - tech something. This tank mpg's is good as almost all cruising ~2500 rpm. New Fuchs wheels on order! New motor mounts on order...maybe.

Car is running good. Ordered ASL Camguard for oil, bought SeaFoam for gas, ordered some spare parts to carry, putting together a tool kit. Need to re-do the mat in the back for the dogs. Need to look at the antenna connection into the windshield as reception is sketchy up the Poudre. So far, so good.

The car is running good on the 85 octane. Got the small dent fixed by Matt. Set up the rear seat area for the dogs. Ed Carroll did alignment and programmed a second key. Alignment done for straight roads. Handling very well now. Grill screens are on. Brandon: every now and then run to high revs to clear carbon. I need to look into this further...

The car is running good. This tank includes 5 gal. added mid-tank. I found 2 good steering wheel covers and a set of grill screens. Going to build a board for the center console. Car goes in to Porsche on Friday to get the new key programmed and an alignment. BTW...the 85 octane seems just fine for this altitude - no knock at all and the engine sounds and runs great.

The car is running good. I did the new front brakes and rotors and changed the trans. oil. Checked air filter and cleaned the throttle body and the MAF. Ordered a new key from the dealer. The clear mask is complete. The front fenders have had the paint and clear coat corrected. I washed and applied Hybrid Ceramic yesterday. From dealer: this car never had a radio code. Good to know! Nobody thinks 17" wheels will work so will give up on that. May do alignment when I take in to have new key programmed. Make a list.

The car is running great. This was my first full fillup, but I reset the PCM halfway through by mistake so don't have the exact miles. I filled up 8 miles into the reserve after the light came on, so it does look like the reserve tank is 2.6 gal when the light comes on (16.9 - 14.3 = 2.6). Good to know. I got new tires. I have new touch up paint so Friday 11/27 I will get the small dent fixed and the chips painted by Matt at "Precision PDR" a dent removal place. Then, into the clear bra place to get that done. Bought new QuickJacks so new gear oil and front brakes are coming up. Cleaned all the leather and steering wheel and that turned out good. This tank I will see if it runs without knocking on 85 octane (regular).

This is the first fuel up at about the half tank point. Mostly interstate ~80mph. Added a can of 44k and the fuel is 85 octane added to the half tank of premium (91 octane), for a net of 88 octane. We'll see how it does on 88 and will try 85 next tank.
