If anyone is losing compression, RE-Amemiya sells a product that's supposed to raise your compression by 10%.

AJ, I've got feelers out on this Pettit s/c to see if it becomes available. Don't know if your interested. I did not know there were any in Cali - no idea what's wrong with the engine but it's in the shop for repair.

Aww shucks, your welcome. I was going to PM you about it but I got sidetracked. She is an awesome lady and makes a mean brownie, if she needs help with anything, it doesn't have to be computers, just let me know.

Easy Phil lol, I wouldn't say all that, I told her that Charlie would've had it fixed if he was here physically, it's just hard to do it over the phone. Charlie is a genius and probably knows a lot more than I do. Thanks for the compliment.

I have a question, maybe someone can help me out.

I have a check made payable to Anthony Mair Photography
Can I pay that into my regular bank account with just Anthony Mair?

Under our joke that we call banks you most likely can if you can prove you Anthony Mair . Your supposed to have a business license and a business account to legally cash the check but since it does not say Inc. or any thing about a business our banks are very loose and where ever you have your account just deposit it.

Well it should only take about an hour but a lot depends on how hot the engine is (needs to be cooled down) how fast you work . I will PM you as soon as I post this.

Welcome to the real world. Strange as it may be I understand them charging for the test unless it comes back positive and then it's under warranty. I purchased the tool / meter cuz I am not allowed at the dealer and I wish to keep up with mine.

They way it's supposed to work, if you need an engine then no charge - if your OK then they charge.

I can't speek for our locals so I would ask before doing it.

Just looking at different setups. What do you guys think about these Volk GT30 Phantoms in a 19x9.5 +37 setup on my Copper red?

AJ, I like the Axis Wheels you were looking at before more.

A.Mair, if your engine is indeed about to go and the compression test shows that then you won't be charged. If however your engine comes back within spec then you will be charged the diagnosis fee. I'll tell you now, Courtesy will try to talk you out of it and won't do the compression test if you are just complaining about a lack of power. You have to specifically ask for a compression test.

There us also the issue of believing the results that they come back with. You can try to test your compression with Phil so you know what to expect. Of course the dealership won't accept Phil's findings if his are different from theirs.

Courtesy is a serious mix bag where I was outrageously over charged for a clutch and flywheel but they rebuilt for free my old tranny with another one I found online. They also were good enough to tell me that me adding my catback won't negate my engine warranty. They are hard to read.

Good luck.
