Sunday is up in the air, unsure if I want to make the trek to beat on the car or not, not to mention spend my one day off of work doing such. However Joe and I may be going, I just can't commit.

On a real note, my time here might be limited as of now officially. I'm talking about I could be gone in May. As some know my roommate (Navy) is getting out, and despite my feelings on it, it's his choice, and expressing my feelings on his life would be plain greedy. I've also been given a good opportunity where I'm at and my budget right now isn't the greatest after leaving my ex a year ago, inheriting debt from such, and working a so-so job.

Going further, I know someone whom has just gotten in the Navy and was actually stationed back here. It's possible he will be buying my car, though not being an enthusiast I will also at the same time part the car down if he is the "for sure" buyer. Do not PM me nor ask for parts off of it, when the time comes I will let it be known.

I do not want to sell it, however I also do not want to stress driving it in the winter back home nor find a winter beater which financially I can't afford to think about. I also would be losing the payment, buying something for less and for possibly 50% of my current payment, and I'll purchase another sport-bike as I've been wanting to do for a while. This eliminates a lot of stress, especially living in Michigan to own a care-free daily driver and have a bike as my stress-relief. I really miss riding. Ideally the SS would be my DD and I'd own a bike, but financially until I lose this credit card debt NOPE! This alternative would also as a whole believe it or not be cheaper.

I have a lot of decisions to make, and down-sizing and getting somewhere in life versus pretending is unfortunately a lot more sensible. We'll see what plays out, but unless an amazing opportunity allows me to stay (which I'm not against) these could very well be my last times here. Housing wise I do not have a roommate avail., and financially I'm just trying to do what's best. I've made great progress on my debt, I've NEVER missed a payment, and I always keep my budget on point. It's just debt to income only allows you to manage so much.

Yo, Steve... There's a tuner around here that did a car pretty much identical to yours and it dyno'd the same day, same dyno at 314HP/373TQ. You know who he is. Maybe should get in touch with him!
