A Judge won't keep your engine from failing.. sorry..

I drove Pat's Boxster home tonight.. 43 miles with no issues at all. After the first 10 miles with the new AOS fitted the smoke had completely cleared up and there were no noises or issues at all.

We'll re-test for compression and leak down tomorrow to see if the numbers are more consistent after run time to burn all the oil out of the intake/cylinders and etc.

This was just a bad AOS, but it could have been much, much worse.
