I did the BOV VTA mod today. Like everybody said, the front was easy but the back is a little tighter. I left the tube on the rear BOV since it was hard to reach the clips to remove it. I only removed it from the intake. I used the chair leg caps for now, I may order the high temp ones after I make up my mind on if I like hearing it all the time or not.

Welcome to the Pffffft club!  :beer2:


:WOOT: :WOOT: Club ! !

I would suggest anyone that has been using the char leg rubber for a lojg tike to inspect how they are holding up

What's a lojg tike? :clown:
 
new 20" vertini wheels & conti DWS changing from 19 to 20 due to deliver today per fedex. so for peformance plus tire out of Long Beach. CA have been great to work with now if everything arrives if good shape I'll put them on next weekend. & here's where Dave has got me in real trouble not only is the boss not happy about the wheel affair but she has to sign for them, adding insult to injury big time. I guess trading this for a new couch in the living room that I will probably not ever sit in is an even trade!!!!!!!!

That's where Dave has an unfair advantage. He can concentrate his discretionary money on mods and you and I have to also spend on offsetting wife pleasing bribes. Worst part is the bribes usually cost even more than the mods. Just ain't fair!

new tires 245/45zr20 originally had 255/45/19. wheels 35mm offset.so nothing real exotic. according to the website willtheyfit.com should have no problem at all in fact should move a little away from the caliphers which is good since I have the save MGP's as Mark. one interesting thing according to site my speedometer will be off by a couple miles per hour really going around 62 when speedo says 60. Tom, will do, by the way your writeup on the hot pipes was an oration!!!!!! Very well done even I could understand it. Larry yes Dave does have an advantage over us but what can do you after 39 years.

Which is why it looks like I'll be getting a new camper instead of the '67 Mustang Fastback that I've had my eye on for several months!  :-

Eh.  Who needs a couch Mike!  Can't wait to see how the SHO looks in her new shoes! 
 
Just put in my typhoon intake! I love it thus far. Sounds awesome, looks great, just what i was looking for.

Special thanks to DJE624 on a bangin deal!, fast shipped, securley packaged, great condition product!

On to the eye candy.
 
my tires & wheels did arrive around 6pm so the boss didn't have to sign for them. got them undone which was a good size effort. performance plus tire had them really wrapped well 3 layers of cardboard & foam each side, so not a stratch on them. cold weather coming in tomm, maybe light snow so will put on this weekend then will post pics but here's what they look like not on the SHO.

Very Cool! Congrats Mike!  Definitely waiting to see the new shoes on your ride.  :popcorn: …any prelim unmounted pics?
 
Tom, I think you are looking for the wheels stood up against the current wheels for that prelim look :D  Thought it might be a bit monster tire at first glance.

I also like mine.  Love the sound.  Might not make any more power, but it sounds like it does.
 
X2. Love the sound.  Better than the drop in sound which was nothing and the Airaid sound which was almost nothing.
