Spent the Day In Paradise Yesterday

So yesterday I spent a good amount of time working on my car it was a lot of fun.
I removed the stock bumper to test fit my tsunami bumper that came ( i didnt fully install it i just sort of placed it where it goes without screwing it in, also i left the hood open for the pic. the bumper fits very easily - good job tsunami.

also i did the throttle body bypass mod and i removed my vfad. i am loving these 2 mods, in the past i removed the walls for the air box and got a K&N filter, so the combo is amazing. sounds awesome and who knows, maybe gave me a few ponies.

i would rec removing vfad to every1, i wish i had done it sooner.

oh- i also drilled holes in the stock grill where it is filled in on the top half for more airflow.

sorry for the terrible pics, camera phone

I did the same and put a duct hole in my bumper for a ram air, feels much better.
