Thanks for the Bday wishes!! Love the pic Jen! Happy Belated Bday Aku! and little Doug, I am in St Ignace tonight...will be in Mackinac tomorrow too!

I got my own guardian monkey today...she has a pink parachute. Will someone do a poll so she can have a name? Joel says Bubbles and Blake says Pink Panther...throw some other good names up and put it to a vote... (please?)
 
i'm gonna second bubbles. but that's just me.
 
Bubbles for sure.

The intake is on, despite my power being out, I can really notice a difference. When I put the steeda on the SVT, it did nothing but sound, this for sure makes the car rev faster...
 
The airbox itself was a little bit of a PITA. I took the front wheel off, part of the inner fender, and part of that cowl under the front bumper, then slid it out. Its only held in with two bolts.

Has anyone modified that stock airbox to hold an air filter, similar to a Volant? I am thinking about cracking mine open, and maybe seeing if its possible. I've seen the cheap CAI mod where you just use the stock maf tube an resonator with a filter, but this would be modifying the actual box. Hmmm....
 
im going to buy some brake parts tonight(front right side pads r now completely worn) replace them tuesday.

after work clean the car, install tb rear dogbone. then if i get time custom fab stock drivers side mount to make it stiffer and claybar/wax

edit: i didn't want to take fender liner up when i changed mine, also couldnt reach one of the 2 bolts, i did my swap in january, so now its lot warmer
 
You can, but dont need to.

Think I am going to hit up AKU in a bit and try to go skiing again.
A night on the water should be fun.
My bad for not calling last night, I ended up not going because once again my friends who said they'd go decide they dont' want to and I get stuck at home with no ride out there. God this no driving thing is pissin me off.

where do you guys boat at?
My dad's buddy he's known since college has a cottage out on Portage lake. We go there a lot, and when were not there we go to Orchard Lake.
 
Cool, and morning peoples. Doing my first oil change on the ST today, should I go synthetic? I had the SVT on synthetic, but a lot of people say it doesn't matter now days, thoughts??
 
Any other input on oil choices???
