Bob,

I'm headed that way in a few months. I'm glad to see someone from Sill active on the site. I'm headed to 31st ADA.

Let me know if you guys want to meet up or something. It could be worth a trip up there. I won't be able to make the car show though.

NEW Simota Charger CF Intake installed

Hey just put on a new CF intake by Simota on my 8, quicker throttle response, and sounds great! It is the new CF Simota Charger Intake, not the old wide model. I bought it from rx8strakes.com. Easy to install, took me a couple of hours because i straigtened up some cables and cleaned around the engine bay.

Well the 19th of this month is Import Face Off at Thunder Valley in Noble, OK. I'll be there, sounds like sandnsun7 may be there, and a buddy of mine with an 8 will be there. Hopefully we can get a few of us there and finally get something going in Oklahoma!

Finally here with my 8, got the PCM replace under warranty - long story - and now I have to make her pretty again. Needs a good wash, clay bar, wash, wax.... it will be a very long day when I finally get that done. I'll be signing into work this week so who knows when I'll get to actually do that.

If you see a Nordic Green 8 driving around the Lawton/Ft Sill area - wave!! I wave at 8's.. sometimes I get waves back, sometimes I get dirty looks of Who the F is that?? lol Hopefully this area is more friendly then the last place I was stationed ( 8 drivers I mean)
