Hey guys I broke my intercooler while driving and i parked it in a store parking lot, so right now i'm basically N/A and if i drive it will be super rich. My house is 4 miles away. Is it possible to drive home if i keep the RPM and speed real low? I don't want to call a tow truck to tow me only 4 miles PLEASE RESPOND QUICKLY because its getting dark and i dont want to leave my car there overnight. Thank you for your help.
 
thanks for the quick responses i limped the car home and was able to go at about 25MPH in 5th gear for most of the way with the RPM's slightly above 1000. I hit a pothole and it tore open the bottom endtank and it popped my wheel. I put on a spare however the car pulls a little to the right now. I don't think I broke anything major. I'll have to take a closer look at it in daylight. I bent my rim but luckly I had a full size spare. I think i may have thrown off the alignment, I doubt I broke my axle because I don't think I would be able to drive home if my axle was broken. Once again, thanks for the quick responses! :dsm:
 
if anything you harmed your control arms but get an alignment and they will tell you if you need some new ones, i doubt the axle itself is broken

Your car wanted to hit the pothole, It wants a front mount. :)

I actually have one sitting in the hatch right now... hehehe. Ironically, the only reason I still had the sidemount was because I was waiting for TurboLarry to help me with the FMIC install next week, (piping fabrication, mounting, etc.).
