Joe you have to stop provoking it, just because you have "insider" information. Nobody is going to bad mouth a certain someone.

I'm not. But I would like answers.

One guy saying it works well... Means nothing. As does one saying it doesn't. If I'm not mistaken, that guy who says its good, has a stock turbo variety.

No. The guy definitely needs to title it first in IL before I can. My dad worked his entire life in the car business and as soon as I told him the problem he said "that's title jumping, he can't do that." I spoke again with one of the seller's friends today and he said the guy will get it fixed when he returns next week, he too wants to make it right. The guy returns next Saturday, and I think we will go that Monday to get it done. So I'm feeling better.

For you IL drivers, can this be done at a currency exchange? Or only at a Secretary of State office?

I want this done so I can start buying some Year One parts I need for the car, and get that oil leak fixed.
