Can we please stop hotlinking pics?

I hotrodded my old Vostro 3550 laptop, swapped from an i5-2430m to an i7-2760qm

I was skeptical, since Dell never put a quad core in this model, the hottest CPU you could get in it was an i7-2620m, I updated to the latest bios, and took the gamble.

The i7-2760qm is a 45w TDP, while the original i5-2430m, and the optional i7-2620m are both 35w TDP CPUs, so I lubed the CPU and GPU up real good with some Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut before putting it all back together.

I wound up behind that guy in traffic a few weeks ago. I've seen Prii driven that badly, but not that aggressively.

Pic unrelated except that it's also a 4x4 half a mile from where I was behind the "Prius" on another occasion. The camera angle doesn't show it well, but this thing is missing a lot of wheelbase. I have little doubt it would do a stoppie under hard braking.

Finally got my car back together with the rattle canned wheels.  

Man, if I were building a house.

....and it's right on the runway.

If you were building a house like that, you might want to consider including some of these:

Agreed. The Saab looks fantastic. Those are my favorite stock Saab wheels.

Why just some random garage pic, instead of a super awesome pic of the new lift?.

Here's a pic of the sticker I applied to the Einhorn tonight:

And here's a pic of the wiring harness I had to wiggle to get the car running right and eliminate the misfire

This one is pure awesome

Thanks for the compliments.  Those are also my favorite stock SAAB wheels.  Here is a pic of the 4 legged members in the family.

So between the Land Rover towing a Land Rover, or the Lambo towing a Lambo, which used more fuel?
