Like shadowman have said.. the story have changed some many times by my mechanic... the issue here is that the electric fan that came with the car was not up to par.. my intial problem and thus the engine was overheating...

During the night it would be ok as long as you were driving it with the wind hitting the engine... Why did it go off the hook ? thats because i hit traffic and watched the needle go into the red.. I didnt turn the engine off thats because i was scared it wouldnt switch on again because i had a problem with the battary the day before... why didnt i turn off her and call a tow truck ? good point but i didnt.. call it lazy if you want!

So the oil leak story changed from the oil leaked to finding out that 3 pistons were "melted"... and here we are... the pistons, superhcarger and pullies have been removed and they are being packaged as we speak and should be fedexed tonight... Meantime, the bigger fan has already been installed on the car and we are waiting for a bigger oil cooler to arrive because the poil temp was beyond mid point (maybe due to overheating)... a program will uploaded into the car to allow more water to be circulated to cool down the car further..

Hopefully, we will be better prepared this time around when the new pistons and repaired supercharger arrive...
WOW

Quite a bit has happened in the past months. Your engine blowed up.(AGAIN) blochs car is at karls place getting things sorted out. Triflow sold his car? Why,not sure
The DA area 54/63/88 or ??? is begining to proove thier abilities or not. Sorry your having so many problems. I was hoping to have my friend Fahhad, in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, clean your clock with his 666hp e46 m3. IT"S NOT OVERHEATING UNDER ANY CONDITION..... Perhaps we can race until your engine pops and if your out front you win!

Oh well, If it gets up and running, you have an open challenge to a dual, my old and distant friend......

Don't matter how good it looks. If it don't run it may as well be framed and hung on your wall.... Nice conversation piece....

Oh give it a rest already. I probably should just bite my tongue, but it didnt run great in a box either.
