You live in Texas? Does it EVER snow? Even so, they removed the system for a reason, I am sure. If it was honestly so great I would think it would be used today on even the RX-8, but it's not to my knowledge. I have mine still on the car, but I leave the tank empty. I dont' see much of a point in removing it. It probably weighs..what..a pound?

Can this be true? I may wish to acquire one of these.

Just trace the flange from the cold assist injector onto a peice of aluminum and buy a hack saw blade from home depot for 4 bucks. Drill two holes and that's it, some RTV and done. Why do people need to buy block off plates? They are the simpliest thing to make.

It all boils down to the old TIME vs. MONEY and which one do I have more of?

Banzaitoyota's block off plates are very inexpensive(the cold start plate is 8 dollars) and they are made from 1/8 inch water-jet cut stainless steel and come with hardware. i would rather spend 8 bucks for a nice plate than 4 bucks and 1 hour of my time for a ugly aluminum half-assed plate
