I'm supposed to get it New Years Eve but Ray is back pedaling a little. He and Easy_E1 are involved in a mod that may take a few days longer. I have at least one ally in Ray's camp, his girl Michelle. She is trying to make sure I get my car New Year's Eve (and she gets to party )

Now quit trying to give Ray ideas you just confuse him - New Year's Eve!!!!

Today, the Sohn OMP Adapter and new set of brakes will be installed. Next is to finish up the AEM gauge installation with the CF A-pillar cover. Erick is fabbing up a really sweet set-up for the intake stuff.
You got the Sohn adapter installed, great. Brakes today. I hope the intake does not take too long.

nope, the A-pillar only covers the gas tube that fires the airbag. the bag actually deploys from overhead out of the headliner
