Thank you Ian and Chuck

I always have to post of these thank yous because I can't install my mods myself.

Last night, I went over to Chuck's house to see if Chuck had any tools to help get my TB bolts off. Ian gave me a GREAT deal on the Crawford Plenum. I attempeted to put it on, but I stripped one of the TB bolts. So Ian did me a huge favor and ordered/picked up the 4 TB bolts for me..another GREAT deal. After a few minutes of messing around, Chuck managed to loosen the Loctite covered bolts that were connecting the TB and plenum and pull them out for me. Ian recommended me to get get 2 wire looms to secure some hose in front of the engine. So Ian generously offered to let me take his car to Home Depot. An hour later, I was a happy owner with a Crawford Plenum. Thanks again Chuck and Ian.

On the way home, I gave the car a nice run through 1st and 2nd...I can't remember the last time I spun so much shifting into 2nd gear. I think the Plenum worked .

Chuck's head is going to get even bigger now.

It's nice that you acknowledge those that help you. Just telling someone thank you means a lot.

Glad you can spin you tires now.

Now let's get this right. I didn't "strip" any bolts. I removed the bolts that were already stripped and installed your plenum for you. But, your welcome.

It's great to see members helping each other. Ryan, your G may perform even better once the plenum has been on for a while. I know when mine was installed I didn't notice it right away. Sam at Coastal Dyno told me it may take some time for the ECU to recognize it. He was right, one day it started pulling better. Have fun with it.
