Message	quenching causes transformation to the martensitic crystal form which is far harder. The transformation is by a rule incomplete. Lowering the temperature further increases the conversion percentage eliminating weak austenitic spots. Because of hysteresis in the transformation, it is possible to retain the percentage at room temperature. Daily driving a TT is like ordering your favorite pizza for breakfast lunch and dinner. It's not healthy and eventually you will lose the magic of the meal. Sometimes you just have to have some meatloaf. My new meatloaf.... 1994 Black Honda Civic DX :D what? It looks a little stumpy, but fits great in the hand! (n/m) - ZEngineer 12/12/06
