oh btw i put my old intake back in, it took about 20 minutes compared to the 2.5 hours of last time. personally i think that this is the way the car should have sound when the car was built. At the next meet gil ill give u a ride in it, i think the hks racing suction intake should be your next mod dude. it sounds tight.

^Yeah I like the K&N II. Sounds like we where right Mike. All the right mods have to come together. Good for you!
I cant wait to start moding the car. Starting all over sucks. But oh well. It has to be done right.

I think my first mod will be clear corners & Tanabe Springs. I miss them
Hey Mike! Can you install my Springs for us I'll pay like I did last time. I'm no tight a$$ when it comes to cash. You know whats up.

Oh yeah Phil, I have some RP for ya and I'll order some premix for us. In-return for the Spark Plugs you let me use. Is that ok?

Congratulations guys! It's time to start modding all over again.. LOL On the other hand, I got my parts today! (Passenger Curtain Air Bag, Toe Rod and Traction Rod). Also, I just took both my factory battery, and my Optima Red Top battery to get charged at AutoZone! Also, I will be installing my NGK spark plugs, and my Nology spark plug wires ! My 8 should be back on the road real soon!! I'm also thinking about replacing my whole body kit, or just my rear bumper, too.. Well, that's about it, just thought I'd give everyone an update on my 8.
