Yeah a few friends we bounced the video off of were "speechless" as well.
All they kept saying was "That is amazing"

You know I wanted to try the TPC turbo for a long time and finally decided to.
I...WE wanted to put a twist on it (have fun) and as I said in the video.....Carole loves the car and is always asking questions about this and that.....so NOW is her time!
I gotta say she is a GREAT sport and had lots of fun with everything so far....so I give her kudos!
She even ordered a nice little racing suit for the test drive.....when we are done!
I think I created a monster or maybe a Diva....

Yeah that she is......she NEVER complains of any amount of money I spend on a car!
Not too many like her,that I know for sure!
I think I will keep her around a bit longer,LOL!

Hey, why do I get tarred with the same brush as Ed and Jim? I've never commented on your hair, or lack thereof.

Wow Stacy, great work! I wish my wife was as supportive. She accepts, and sometimes understands, but I wish she was as involved as Carole.

Damn Stacy! You are one lucky guy! The video is definitely too short.


Hope you can beat me with your TPC setup so I can have a good look at the "rear end"... of the car of course. Good luck with the install!

When a Jared's supercharger came up for sale long time ago,she actually pushed me into buying it.....all she said was "You know you want it,GET IT:..!
Sometimes it would be nice to have a wife that would stop me from spending money on the car....AGGHHH who am I kidding..!

We were going to make the video longer BUT we didn't want to bore you guys!

As far as seeing "the rear end"....it may be hers you will be looking at!......SHE may be the one driving and laying the "beat down" on that white exotic of yours,LOL!


Stacy

PS We decided to pull the video......it was finding it's way to alot of car sites.......and really was only intended to have fun with you guys on 6 speed and one other forum.
I would hate for something negative to come of it!
BUT we will be doing some video while she is installing the turbo......
