Oh right. I would personally vote for returning to stock for resellability, sell it, then get a different car. Start from a reliable platform if you need a DD, or get two cars, a daily and a project car that can afford to be down. From talking to you you seem like the type who likes/craves/needs change.

Alrighty, this is what I saw when I took out my pan



Looks like the bottom end is fine....lol.

I think I may have also found a chunk of piston, kinda hard to tell. It looks to me like the piston may have actually twisted in the combustion camber, breaking into the water passages.

Damn that's crazy. Lucky that stuff didn't fly into me. How's the head? I say rebuild it with stronger internals and maybe get an airfilter..

Re: Whipping my mama volvo...ugh VW

I don't think this was caused by the lack of air filter lol

Re: Whipping my mama volvo...ugh VW

Yeah not fun. Stuff wouldn't have flown into anyone, because it was more or less contained within the pan. And Martin is right, air filter or not this would've happened regardless

Internals and moar boost!

Sucks dude but I can't wait to see if the piston twisted. That's a new one for me.

Re: Whipping my mama volvo...ugh VW

Yeah well colin you might be in luck. I've found some chunks of piston. Is that seriously a f&f quote?

Re: Whipping my mama volvo...ugh VW

Man thats nuts. And no, the real f&f quote is "so much torque it twisted the chassis", but I thought it was close enough haha

Re: Whipping my mama volvo...ugh VW

crazy stuff man, my vote is for a rebuild. You have the cleanest Pg Gli in the city and your lower than the guys who drive on air, so much respect for static low.
Ps, Loling at the f&f quote.

Not to be hating in another guys thread, and this response can be deleted or edited if Dylan wants but i completely disagree with your statement listed above.

Re: Whipping my mama volvo...ugh VW

Thats nice Sean, you can completely disagree with opinions all you want. Doesnt mean other peoples opinions need to be the same as yours

Re: Whipping my mama volvo...ugh VW

Being lower than other guys who drive on air is not an opinion. It is a simple fact, a yes or no that can be easily determined and verified. Sure he can be lower than a few guys who drive on air, but lumping everybody together and saying that he is lower than all the guys on air is stretching the truth a bit don't you think?
