Default Engine probs

I know I should VAG it before I post it, but o well. Anyways, I was on my way to Frog's place to adjust my coilovers(thanks Phil). While I was on the parkway, the car loss boost all of a sudden. Tried reseting the ECU, no help. But then on the way home just now, I took off from a major traffic jam and the boost came back + more! The car never felt so powerful and smooth ever! Weird as hell, I guess I'll VAG it later and find out what the hell happened earlier.
I'm no longer rubbing! yay me...But i'm badly burnt from the sun!

Default Yes no doubt you were quite charred

your left shoulder was like pink.

I still have no idea what is wrong with your car's boost. Let us know what code it threw.

I've had my fill of suspension work for a while. The B5 is not exactly fun to work on.

Default My issue is that you seem to feel like I work for you

You stop by my house rather than calling roadside, looking for me to fix your car.

You inform me that you're free on whatever day so I can work on YOUR car. WTF... Alex I dont have to do **** for you, I really just dont need the added pain in the *** right now.

Even when we installed the suspension on your car, you took 30 mins to talk to that girl on the phone while the rest of us were working?

You can fix your own audio problems... you dont need me to do it for you. You need to spend some hands on time with tools and your car.

From what I know you do nothing on your own and you pay for virtually nothing. I spend lots of time working on my car and I pay for everything on my car. Between my company and my car I really dont have time to work on YOUR car which isnt my problem, its yours. If you cant take care of it get rid of it.

You wanted to build an engine?!? Somehow I feel that might have turned out to be me building it for you.

Now you ask "what the **** is a your issue dude" Nice engrish, DO you understand what my issue is now?
