Hey I just realized that I never shared the cause of the oil filter popping off. Take a look at the attached pic. It compares my current Mocal adapter threads (in gold) with the one I was running originally (in silver, which failed). Both are supposedly 20 mm. The silver is not as beefy and definitely smaller. 
I supplied this part to Sharif - saved myself $30 over the Greddy 
. Just another reason not to use customer supplied parts. Now I have the Mocal and Greddy adapters in series - rock solid (for sensors and oil cooler). The Greddy and Mocal threads are identical. That generic silver one I got from Summit Racing! grrrr. 
EDIT: Sorry for the O/T Dil, but it's all related to you, since its about your event bro!

The price I paid gave me my own container and was shipped out the next day to arrive on a set schedule. It did not sit at the port for weeks waiting for a spot. Just like trucking a car from TX to GA. You can pay $600 open transport or $1300 close transport.
You get what you pay for....

Car runs pretty good, has small issues with the tunes. But that will all be taken care off this weekend, I am going to Forged again so Sharif can re-tune.
I would also like to add more fuel and increase boost, but I need a solution for the fuel pump, and am not fully sold on the cjm product.
