[s-cars] Suggested BPV for 1992 UrS4?

[Joseph Pizzimenti]

Taka, thanks for the tip, I'm going to have them do
it.  I'll probably end up selling it for a bit more on
Audiworld.  Joe needs the mod money.  Besides, buy a
710N and keep it for when that Bailey goes on you.  I
know plenty of even K03 guys that have blown these
things to pieces.  No disrespect intended, just my
$0.02

Joe, Bailey's is a drink and let's leave it at that,
