Had to make a hard decision and put off Carlisle in order to spend the weekend chasing a boost leak (and found it). Now it's just a matter of becoming a contortionist to REACH it (it's at the coupler on the throttle body, yay). On a positive note I took the front end off and redid the couplers for the intercooler w/ 2.5" to 2.25" silicone reducers, the rubber ones from Hahn swelled at high psi so they're gone now. And I also installed my Forge BPV while I was at it too. Sunday met up with my cousin and hung with him at a local car show that was 10 min. from my house. Not too bad of a weekend.

Ever pulled into a Military Base. You either pull where they tell you, or you lose your tires to rounds or spikes.. So I pulled over where he said, and it happened to be sharp right. He knew the curb was there, and because we worked for a different security company, he decided to be a d-bag and stall us and mess with us like that..

Returned from Chicago early this morning (or should that be 'late last night'?) around 2am. While there I took in a baseball game at Wrigley and just as importantly, met up with American & Proud to pick up some leveling springs for the HHR. It was very good to meet and chat with you A&P! Hope to do it again sometime.
On the drive up, with just me in the car and a 5-8mph tailwind, I got 34 mpg. On the return trip, with two buddies that needed to get back to Cincinnati from Chicago, I got over 31 mpg. I keep on loving the highway mileage of the HHR!
