I just have to say the speed at which to accomplish projects is astounding to me. I can't even build a few shelves in the time it takes you to install a supercharger lol.

I think I'd go if I were 100% remote.
The brief time we were forced into it, I got pretty stir crazy, but I was also homeschooling [virtual school] 2 kids & trying to work at the same time.
Blanks ordered, one I'll drill a hole for the sub volume control, the other 2 holes for the alarm LED & glass break sensor

But, I never have to shovel sunshine, so there's that.
I hate it when it's over 85 lol

That is the beauty of my job, I can do 10 minutes here & there all day & knock things out.
This happened today. I'm blowing oil from the bottom of the dipstick tube & it's hitting the cat & looked like burning oil, scared me before I verified that was what is happening.

Thanks to finally having boost, my 27 year old dipstick tube O ring failed & blew oil onto the cat scaring the crap out of me with billowing blue smoke. I cleaned it up & replaced the O ring.
Did a compression test and am 10 to 15 lbs lower than before the SC ( was 188-195) on the still good cylinders (175-185) but have 125 on 3. Oil on top of most pistons 3 is the worst.
Another oddity, no blue smoke until temp is at 1/4.
Here are the plugs. (in for under 300 miles).
My Z3 M52 has 151k, it had 187.5-195 before SC, now it has 185-175 with 125 in #3 and is burning prodigious amounts of oil The odd things are no noticeable loss of power & it is not burning until the temp gauge hits 1/4 (it sits at 1/2) The blue smoke is worst at throttle, there is none when letting off the throttle at speed. Any help is greatly appreciat

Looks good! I'm sure the AZ heat will make quick work of some of those dents in the leather.
if I were 100% remote.
