Does anyone else get the itch to wrench on their car after performing some sort of work?

I just did the trans swap on mine and now all I wanna do is continue tearing it apart and tweaking on it. Thankfully, my wallet is limiting my options.

Yeah man, i hear you about that itch... i currently have in boxes waiting for me to install: PRL RMM, PRL Intercooler, VTT Charge Pipes, RV6 Retro kit-stage zero(“ (this one frightens me), and a set of unity side markers on order… going to add some Diode Dynamic fogs to the pile and get most of it installed next month but man… i just want to get it on the stands now…

the clutch is waiting for when i get a quick-Jack system this coming Black Friday. Don’t want to tackle that just on stands.

I put my GC+ turbo / PRL turbo inlet pipe in last weekend right after changing out my spark plugs and PCV valve and changed the oil and gear oil. Flashed my new updated DRob tune and have been having so much fun. It's a totally different car again lol. That's the crack.

Yes! And that's why I purchased a PRL inlet pipe the itch started after I said no more for a while. Im already looking at a drop in turbo stuck between VTT GC or RV6 red ball bearing :spaz:

It's really not bad on stands at all. I put mine up on 4 stands to pull the transmission twice now.

Next thing you know, you're swapping a motor. Truly never ending.
After pulling the transmission a second time, I realized that I was only a few connectors, hoses, and bolts away from having that completely removed. Don't tempt me, Frodo.
