HEY! Watch it.... I love my sunroofs! Just today in the pouring rain I was driving 75 down the highway with it open

And I had to drive 800+miles to get my FD because it had a sunroof

Obviously, no matter what engine, it takes skill to build power with more than bolt-ons.
I understand... I just don't want him to start thinking like alot of people do, hey, it's only got 3 moving parts, it's simple! Then they wonder why thier $500 rebuild with a $400 ebay turbo blows up...

To do a stock rebuild, more time will be spent cleaning than mic'ing and fitting seals, yes I agree, and a stock rebuild is pretty simple.... but like I said, I think there are tyoo many people that think, oh, 3 parts, piece of cake....
