I smogged the sucker today and passed with flying colors, woo hoo. Now I have tabs and can break in the motor without worry of getting a ticket. I messed with the idle again, resett the tps again and messed with my idle speed screw on top of the throttle body. The outcome was a nice 800-850 idle. Here are a couple of pics for ya, but they are nothing special really. I also put on my s5 tail lights today, and they look pretty good. Only slight modification was needed ala big fu*king hammer :bigok:

Yea, there is a little overlapping in the body and one of the bulbs. A few punches with a hammer was enough to clear it. When I smogged it today the guy thought it was a front wheel drive and asked me like three times if it was rear. I was having trouble with it keeping the low idle after I shut it off, But after resetting everything the idle stuck around 8-850 which is gosh darn cool. I now have approximately 92 miles on the engine. :bigok:
