yeah, well the engine was replaced last summer, and in the process my mechanic replaced the former customer's TID mod with the stock TID, and that cost $200, so i didn't really feel like just pulling it off and throwing it away.



that and it will take some more problem solving to find good parts to make a shorter zig-zag to my MAF, going to my CAI. and then i will have to connect an inlet for the DV. so much work, not worth it right now.

Great idea!



While you're under the hood, why don't you use a damp rag and get some of that damn dust out of there? Your engine compartment is filthy!

turn your afm so the flapper is not hanging i've heard that if the door is not flapping sideways it can cause hesitations to bad idles. i've use to have mine like that and after a while ihad probs....

interesting point reguarding the flapping and what not. i guess i could do a FBD and write the EOM's for horizontal vs. vertical setup, put my $40,000 A&M engineering education to the test...



or i could just ask you at what point it made your car hesitate. my car idle's fine, but when the throttle's barely open (vacuum of ~18 inHg), my car hesitates real bad

I thought the headlight scoop is one of those types of things that fits in the group of your sig? You know, like it's useless, but looks cool.
