I'm headin to Treasure Island tonight for our work Christmas party...hopefully I can come home with a few hundred bucks, but we will see! Black Jack better be kind to me
Mike - How hard is it to replace the flywheel? I know this is one of the better mods to do to almost any car. I assume it's an aluminum one or other light weight metal to reduce rotating mass coming off of the engine. And about the spacer, the motor dyne one is for the upper intake right? If so, what kind of things are availible for lower intake? Wat is the major difference between the copper and non copper ISO spacer?
Lance - Hey now, I only got 3 tickets (for equipment anyway) and they were all for the 2% tint job I had. I only got a warning for the loud, cat-less exhaust. I do not want anything that loud again for a DD. I think I probably want to do just an axle back for now. I may later move to do a full system. This summer's goal are the detail, tint and spacer first.

You would want to go with the mREV lower collector, it does a better job of funneling the air from the upper intake to the lower intake and combustion chambers. It again adds extra power as well as quite a bit of torque, definitely a mod I would do at the same time, since your already halfway there when you do the upper plenum. The thermal aspect of it, is purely running coolant through the throttle body valve to make sure that with the colder air flow you dont lock the throttle body in an open or closed position.
Go halfway down the page and you will see the mrev manifold on the page. http://www.motordyneengineering.com/index.php?cPath=2_8
Heres the last clip I did with my coupe. Keep in mind I have my heavier tires and 285s on the back end. Funny how loud it is when its over a 1/4 a mile away LOL!

LMAO! You're exhaust was a lot louder then I thought!?! I remember riding in it around here...was that your final exhaust setup?
Mike I have the kinect. I'll talk to Linds and see what she has up her sleeve for tomorrow night. WHat you got on Monday too? You could always crash here too for the night. I'll let ya know!
Taylor what time will you be back Monday?
I believe we will be back late Sunday or at least late morning Monday. Caitlin has a bunch of school work to do so I figure I should leave her alone for a few hours so she can be productive. We could maybe get together for some lunch first or something. We can figure it out, play it by ear, fly by the seat of our pants.
Hows everyone doing? Just a few more month until spring. We are on the downslope now. I am so excited.
Also my friend is thinking about selling his Jetta Wagon to his dad, and if he does he is going to pick up an 03 6spd G sedan lol we found one last night and if its still for sale on Tuesday, he is going to fly out next weekend and pick it up. (it is in Ohio).
Us and Neil (the X factor) are getting a house next year, so 3 Gs at the same house would be pretty funny hahaha we could host a G meet without even leaving.

Sorry I didnt make it up yesterday Lance, I didnt expect to work so late. I'm done at 1 this Tuesday and 130 next Sunday if ppl are down for something. I'm late on Mondays, so that makes it easier if I wanted to hang out or crash up there. Lemme know!
