Was having boost issues, got under the car today, all my piping was tight, only to find my intercooler was cracked along the welds for the 4th time, this one in a different spot. Looks like I'll be buying a new intercooler. Thank you Procharger intercooler for failing me once again.. Oh and I need a rematch for all those cars I ran this past weekend on the cruise [Big Grin]

If it makes you feel any better phil, your car on low boost will still beat mine with a 10 car head start haha
