• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

    TXL wire necessary?

    If you can't get your hands on a plastic syringe to extract the supercharger snout oil (in conjunction with some tubing) I have, and use a battery acid filler bulb that fits and works well. (looks like a turkey baster with an uber-skinny tube.
