A big ole turbo and a set of injectors will knock the symptoms back for a while, but there is no cure.

Yeah, I figured it would be no big deal. I told you we were gonna send the sh$%y weather your way. And again, tru-cool can definately wait. That tranny temp is the most boring gauge I have aside from the stock dash idiot ones.
