What have you done to your P5 today?

Nope. The unit that the place installed has a turbo timer feature built in. Can set it from 1 to 5 minutes in 1 minute increments.

That's funny, I washed my Pro5 and my Mustang today too. Then I checked the radar and it's supposed to rain in a couple days.

I figure rain or no rain, the cars are WAAAAY cleaner than they were, so it's a net win.
 
I did a custom sub box for my P5!!! Two days and many hours later I have a custom box all for around $100. Can't wait to get the sub and amp hooked up.

Odd, it seems my fellow Austinites are dominitaing this particular page today. Dropped the car off at the shop this morning. Yesterday, the temperature gauge on my car began to move past normal operating temperature....for the first time ever (Fortunately, because I have read so much on this board...the second I saw it go north of normal temperature...I cranked on the heat...probably only operated past normal temp for about 1 minute) Luckily, it only moved about 2 tick marks past "normal" by the time I started the heater and pulled on my street. I shut it off and left it there. Shop called me a few moments ago...pin-hole leak in my radiator which holds fine and cools and operates reasonably for about 15 minutes. They informed me that after about 15 minutes of running at 15psi (whatever the hell that is all about) that the car began to warm up past normal. All in all, need a new radiator...so I told them to go ahead and throw the T-stat and T-Stat gasket in as well. Oh, and an oil change. G-Damnit. $645. It hurts me. Oh it hurts so bad.
