I like having my undertray on.. I think it helps with airflow across the radiator, indercooler and oil cooler. I also think those little channels aiming air at the brake do something.. I also think it probably helps reduce front end lift a little.
As far as Kevin's car.. I don't think he did that on purpose.. It's parked in a tree.

Talked to insurance adjuster...
He does not believe the damage is substantial enough to guarantee being totalled (which is what I thought too) so the car is headed to Renner for the repair estimate.
Joe, she's headed your way!

The car is teetering on a snow mound...so i dunno. I doubt he would risk driving it up on there and scratchin the paint on the trees infront along with harming the undercarriage for a simple photo...but thats just my personal thought.
Im thinking either he tried to turn and the wheels turned but the car kept going straight...or he was snow drifting.....or possibly too much gas....or maybe wrong gear (hopefully not!)

He came down the hill to park in his spot and couldn't stop. The snow bank was kind enough to help him stop the car.

Cool, I've never seen that site before. It takes me like 1hr 15mins if I leave around 7 so I was just thinking of waiting till 8 and getting in at 9 so I wouldn't be stuck in traffic.

Grrr... my car is making strange noises.
The got on it and all of a sudden this whine started. It only starts when im boosting at around 17 psi. The sound is the same pitch no matter how fast im going or what speed. It almost sounds like a vaccum cleaner/ turkey call. Its not the clutch slipping cause the rpms dont shoot up. Could we take a look at it at the shop tomorrow?

Thats what i was thinking, cause the car starts to kinda studder if i stay on the gas. Do you have a boost leak test that we could use tomorrow?

Last winter I had a smal squeak when under boost. It ended up being the hose that connects to my boost gauge.
When it got so F'n cold like it has been the hose got hard and wasn't hold as good of a seal. A small customized worm clamp fixed that up
