Dont know if good Idea to drill the holes.The maf is tricky when it comes to air flow, but then again you have the stock or k/n panel filter and may not get the extra air anyway.

Why not get another halltech? Best of all of them.

Whoa!!! R.I.P. Junior Seau. Shocking news, can't believe it. I've met him twice in Oside running on the beach. Very nice guy, Oside's very own...superstar.

Been listening to it on the radio. Definitely sad news for sure.

I spent a lot of years in Carson...unfortunately I don't think Samoans have a very long life span...You won't find too many that are really up there in years...Too bad about Jr...he was a good man.

[VR Baron]

Yeah just heard. watched him play at SC and after. To bad

Jr.'s family is deeeeeeeep in Oside too. There's Samoans all over that city. Starred at Oside High, USC, Chargers...he was a San Diego icon. I've met him twice there in Oside. Quite a friendly guy. I'm a Chiefs fan, and I've always respected him as a player. WoW, you never know what someone's going through internally, though.

That sounds a little fishy...my experience is that a shot to the chest is pretty rare for a suicide, in fact, I don't think I've ever seen one that way...usually its a head-shot, od, or good old fashioned hanging!...lol

I thought the same thing. Housekeeper or girlfriend "came home" and found him. Usually a guy goes for the dramatic...headshot. Chicks go for the message...downing, hanging, slit wrists.

Hell, just the logistics...so much easier to put it to your head. With the chest, its awkward... its harder to aim, might hit just a rib, bad shot, just end up wounded...lol

Yeah, help her "grieve" and become a boy toy (I think I'm older than she is) while spending his cash.

So I had Camino real color match my speedo bezel and center console top. Going to do the steering wheel bezel soon and sand the center console so I can paint it gloss black.

Very nice!...Stands out, looks good!

[GunnyG]

Looks good. Shoulda done the steering wheel bezel too.

[VR Baron]

Looks good Steve.

I got and put on the tower brace. No pics but looks alot like Tom's, lol.

And it was all beat up like all the others, so 400 grit and a finishing pad to take out most of the scratches and gouges, then used wheel polish to shine it up. For now put electrical tape under the mount bosses so the red paint wont get messed up. later will get some rubber grommets for that.
And man what a difference! But I did feel just a wee bit quicker response on quick turn ins, a little more solid up front and over bad asphalt patches on my street didn't move around as much, more smooth.

And it looks good, good place to hang the laundry

Very good, Rick! I dunno if I'd put rubber grommets under it though. I would think that would kind of defeat the purpose. You want it to be rigid and not have any give... I didn't put anything under mine. In fact, I tightened the crap out of the fasteners, almost hoping it would "dig in". (eh, on the paint, can't see it anyway lol)...and besides laundry, its a good place to set your drink!...lol

Well not regular grommets, more like spacers that are a thin material, but maybe right. Tape works and they are tight.

Besides drinks, you can line up burgers to cook...lol

Clippers lost Steve. At least they got the split.
