So on my way to the shop, I decide to hit the car in the lane next to me. So I hit the 88 suburban next to me and pull over. He stops where he was(middle of 16th st.) I check out my highlander minor scratches and a chip at the door I go to check out his car and nothing.So I ask him if everything is alright he say he wont know until he gets home cause the frame is probably bent.:rotfl: The passenger is acting like shes injured. So I asked if he want to swap ins. info. He says no and just asks for my name. I think I should have got more info from him now Oh I took highlander to a shop for an estimate 900 to repaint the fender and door.

I'm injecting a little bit of reason into this tune discussion. The tune on that car is not finished, there's work that still needs to be done, as well as something very funky with the wastegate (this is an ex-project car, remember) that's allowing that crazy boost on a TD04.

Nate instructed him not to drive the car hard (as little as possible) in that state until he had some of the other mechanical issues fixed, so that car isn't representative of a final tune.

drifter04, let us know what's going on with the car, but the 19psi is indeed way over what we recommend; we were asked to stop working on the car until these issues were resolved, and we want to make sure you're running safe.

Everyone else, calm down

so all he has is your name?

in all honesty, if all that happened was a little cosmetic damage to your car and no visible damage to his beheamoth, i wouldn't worry about bent frames or even injuries.

If I know drifter04 right I'm betting he already blew the motor from pushing it.

I motion for you to sue because of back and neck pains. Clearly your car has more damage so he is the one that hit your car.

I would also like 10% of your winnings.
