What have you done to your Ecoboosted vehicle today?

[ZSHO]

I cleaned up the Airaid intake and reinstalled it once again but noticed the Hump Hose coupler to be cracked and hardened due to it being made from rubber AFAIK!

I have always used HPS silicone hoses with overall great results but opted for an Autobahn silicone hose which is right up their with quailty compared to the HPS and similar in comparison with half the price tag and Great piece for the money IMO!
I also applied some Heat Reflective Tape to the intake.
I will provide some PICS for anyone interested. Z 

3.5" To 3.5" (89mm) ID HOSE.

ZSHO pics are always wanted. haha


Today I ordered a Fumoto F107s for my SHO. I am going to do my first oil change so I figured it would be a great time to try one of these puppies out.

I ordered directly from them and am happy to say they hooked me up with a military discount too.

Just need to pick up a FL500s and 6 quarts of 5W-30 full synthetic oil and the fun can commence.

Good luck with the Fumoto.  Although drain speed will be reduced, certainly will eliminate the hassle of the drain plug.

LOL! Its a long shot anyway... The company that wants me I am unsure about and being as I have always been an east-coast guy, I am not sure my stodgy self would fit in over there in CO... lol

I am excited about Carlisle, not gonna enter the SHO, but I am planning on going with my old man.

Really?

You're NOT going to enter your SHO?

Lame.

Why Not? The more SHO's that enter, the better. It has lasting impressions upon so many, and provides the very foundation for continued interest in the platform.

I STRONGLY recommend you reconsider.

SBS does a fantastic job cleaning up Blue Thunder too!

 

[ZSHO]

The snow melted relatively quick.    Here are some Pic's as mentioned in my previous post earlier of the Silicone Hose plus added some T-Bolts clamps for good measures.
Here are some Pic's as promised earlier. Z

No way! you’ll fit in just fine and learn to love this place man. yes your ET’s will suffer but the fun part is . . . you’ll be stomping all over  NA V-8’s like it’s nothing since they’re the ones who really suffer up here.
i’m rooting for you to take the job and come out here and share the crap thin air with me! lol
