    power steering went out

    upon closer inspection, i found that i could move the power steering pump pulley a little from side to side. clearly it needs to be tightened up. i've never done any pully work, and it was dark so i couldnt see it that well, what do i need to tighten that badboy to where it should be? and if...

    i need more speed....

    why thank you! i, of course, attribute that to the 7k rpm shifts, and those shifts alone. couldnt have done it without that extra 500 rpms! but seriously, at ~5000, my car gets more power/stops hesitating, so i'll take all of that power that i can get, right up to 7000.

    i need more speed....

    so here's the story: i went to the track in late may, and ran a 14.6. i was pretty pleased, as i thought i'd be in the 15's all night. i cleaned out my car (easily 40+ lbs of junk), took out my spare tire, and put my stock potenza's on the front wheels and went back to the track last weekend...
