ok guys, we get the f-ing point, his engine bay is dirty. in fact, i'd bet HE knows it too, considering it's his car and he took the pictures! lets let it drop. if you stored your car for months, esp. in a climate like that, it'd be dusty too *sheesh*

keep us posted on the progress (and maybe use an air-line to clean it just to shut these guys up).

looking good so far. I assume you'll use the unichip as the EMS, right?

looking forward to see your final numbers.

man, take all those pipes off and wrap them with header wrap. Seriously. you already live in a hot climate, why make it worse by not doing the install right the first time?
