Installed the K&N intake elbow. I wanted to delete the sound tube and clean things up. I dont like the caps or plugs some of the kits use. I'm mildly OCD about things like that. Plus this has a CARB# keeping me legal. A little pricey but thats ok
I didnt expect much but I was pleasantly surprised. The engine seems to run so much smoother, especially at lower rpms. Thats probably more the sound tube deletion than the elbow doing anything but either way I'm pleased. This engine always felt a little unrefined at lower rpms, not anymore. Its smooth as silk now
I didnt use the K&N filter that comes with it. I already had a AEM dry flow so if someone wants a BNIB K&N drop in, I have it for sale in the for sale section

Washed her and found a spot to take some photos. A guy driving through the parking lot stopped and asked "You selling your car? I'll buy it!" I can't imagine what I'd replace her with...

It was unseasonably not snowy and nice and warm today so I took Maggie to Cars and Coffee. Maggie rockin' her winter Michelin X-Ice tires on the stock wheels.
And, my friend's Mystic that used to be Vortech Supercharger's personal car.

Temps are getting cold here already. TC kicked in more than once today just making grocery trips; yes there was too much throttle involved
Anyway, I'll need to pull these wheels off sooner than later. I have my stock BA wheels with AS tires on them. Don't like them, but they're fine. Looking for spacers now to get them out more.
While the main wheels are off; I want to get the curb rash fixed, and get them powder coated in a new color. I've always wanted a bronze wheel on a grey car. I have many thoughts right now.

Same here. Last two days have been mid 60's, I couldn't help but take my car to work. Even at night it's holding in the 50's.

I know you're not a noob but I recommend putting sealer on your wheels, especially winter wheels, especially if they are black. I've done that for both my daily and track wheels and it protects them from brake dust etching (and/or winter crap), and they clean easier. It's easy to do when the wheels are off. I just apply sealer to the 4 wheels and then buff off the excess in the order that it was applied.Temps are getting cold here already.

Having said that, I am ordering Power stop Z23 pads because I can't keep fighting the dust from OEM pads used daily. Even street pads will handle a single panic stop so why suffer through all the dust?
Finally, while I don't care for bronze wheels, they work for your car and as a bonus the dust won't show as bad.

Drove it home from work at 4am in track mode, with no one around. Other than the summer only tires, being like banana peels. and having almost no traction.
It was fun. Sorry to those that had me going by their house at 4am WOT , at least it is cold out so their windows are shut.
