Damn... might be done. I haven't detected too much confidence in Todd'* posts referencing BadSSEi. It seems to break stuff all the time, and generally seems like a money pit. I hope they don't retire it, but I wouldn't be surprised if they did.

The powerplant in the car is done. While the blowzilla can make a lot of power, the torque it produces tends to shred things such as axles, outputshafts, tranny cases, small goats, etc...

The car itself not retired though.

Oh swell. After a few days, I'll be found wandering the streets aimlessly at 3 AM mumbling "What are they going to do?" They'll take me in for evaluation, and put me in a rubber room.... (Too melo-dramatic, ya think? )
