When my car comes back, i'll shoot a photo of what I mean. I should have done the TB by pass at that time, in retrospect.Quote:

BTW, now that you're getting a new engine, it would be a good time to get those headers wrapped or coated or both....at least wrapped. :yup:

Hey man, just so you dont get jacked by someone, powder will not hold up on exhaust, your gonna need ceramic coating. Dont let anyone tell you any diff. I know this post is a little old, I just saw it and figured Id throw it out there.Quote:

But i just wanted my damn car back and tossed the cheapest thing I could find in there. It needs a tune-but i'm putting a lot of money in the Girls Calendar right now so as long as it runs i'm happy.Quote:
