Andy. I took pictures of you in the corkscrew. They are in the dump I posted. You were harder to catch than G and gesso. But I made sure to get a couple of you and albert too.

Re: vacuum cleaner sound
My GTX2867R makes the same whistling/singing sound I think you are hearing in the GTX2863R. It sounds like a big rig when you roll onto the throttle. I'm only guessing but I think it is the anti-surge porting in the compressor housing that makes that sound more pronounced. I know big rig turbos have the same porting. It's a fun sound to have.

Awesome. With the ones you have left, give them out to random miata people, or just put them on random cars in random parking lots. Specifically target BRZ/FRS/S2k/Solstice's so they know what the real cool car really is.
