at least 10. It really hurt the longer it went. I kept seeing it will be up in a few days and just really thought it was over when it went over a week.

I'm going to be the odd man out; I checked once every few days, and usually that was just because I forgot it was down. I cruise through the vortex diesel forum regularly, so I kept an eyeball on the somewhat entertaining thread over there about the breakdown instead of obsessively checking this site.

So there!  ;D

As a noob to this forum I was checking twice a day, I've been so excited about getting my 1.6GTD Mk2 Golf and read on another forum that this is the place to be - it was killing me not being able to get on here!

Glad it's up now ;D

Several times a day ::)
'82 Rabbit, I put on a euro vnt-15, 2.25" DP, 2.5" exhaust, the result.....it whistled.

I removed the turbo, made a toilet bowl 2.5" DP, the result....it was deafening. Now it has a homemade muffler up front and a thrush in the rear, the result.....less loud.
