If that's the same Jordan Sarette that does the insanely high quality e30 builds on r3vlimited I can't wait to see what happens with it!

Anybody replace a charge pipe on a n55 90? I have tried everything to get the map sensor in and it will not go. Not sure if the hole was made to small? Pretty stuck right now and might just have to put the stock one back on before it gets dark

I did one on an F32, I don't remember it being too much trouble, what brand is it?  It was a while ago so I don't remember exactly.  I think the one I put in was AEM maybe.

It's an armmotorsports. The more I look online the more I see people having issues with the companies fitment. I gave it a really good push and their is no way it should take that much force. I put the stock one back on and will be returning it.

$20 says that hunk'a'junk has so many holes in the exhaust that no air was even passing through the tailpipe.

I received this bummer of an email from the SCCA today:

someone said:

There has been rumblings of us losing Miller Park as an autocross event site.  Unfortunately, we are here to confirm this is true. 

Following our request for 2019 event dates, we were informed that The Brewers would not be renting the lots for driving events.  We are not the only group asked to not return, all known driving event rentals have ceased.  The maintenance of the parking lot was given as the reason for the change.  We reached out to them to try to salvage something for the 2019 season, that attempt was unsuccessful and at this point we need to move on.  The door hasn't been completely closed with regards to future events, we will stay in touch and do our best to return to the stadium. 

The Milwaukee Brewers have been a great partner with the club for over 40 years, we ask that everyone treat them with respect with regards to their decision.  We do not want to see any negative campaigns toward the Milwaukee Brewers and/or Miller Park, as we do not want to burn any bridges, please keep this in mind when discussing the situation.

We are exploring options for alternate event locations and will make schedule annoucements as we have more infomation to provide. 

Sorry to deliver this news,

Milwaukee Region SCCA - Autocross Committee

Hopefully they can find a new location in the area!

Heard it's not going to be named Miller Park for very much longer.

Idk y, I thought this was funny

[straight6pwr]

We need to start a petition to stop this nonsense 

I dont even like Miller, but dammit we are the Milwaukee Brewers, and our stadium should be beer themed.  

How did MillerCoors get bullied out of this?

I'd like to know the details as well, but I'd guess that miller either lowballed or offered less and AmFam came in with a higher bid that miller wouldn't match/beat.

I hate when they rename buildings that are basically landmarks.

[Jdesign]

Yeah its pretty much bullshit. Money rules all though.

[straight6pwr]

It'll be Miller Park till I die.

I want nothing to do with AMFAM after they screwed me over on an accident 20 years ago.
