Hi all, I just replaced my front rotors (very much needed). My questions is should I hand tight the middle bolt or should I tie it with a socket wrench? Is it suppose to be a little loose or did I do right right thing by tighten them up nicely? I drove the car and didn't feel and different...

Hello folks! It's been awhile since my last visit. Anyhow, I buddy of mine from the job offer me a turbo that he had laying around and I accepted. The Turbo is way much bigger than my TE-44, has no play and it seems to be in great condition. From what I see is a Garrett P/N 05143110, Turbine...

Hey fellas, It's been awhile since I have been here. I just went through the Panama Canal heading south to patrol for Narco traffic and whatever come our way. In the mean time, whenever I get a chance and a good internet connection, I try to see what's going on in the Turbo Buick world. I...

This might be nothing to worry about, but I just want a little piece of mind. When I launch hard and my cars goes into second gear, my tires tend to spin a little just like a manual transmission car would. Although I think is kinda of cool, I'm wondering if I should be concern? It does this...
