    Save yourself some money and put together this fender wall intake for like 40 bucks.

    If you want to squeeze every HP possible out of the intake setup, go for the WizAir. It pushes heavily on insulation and does a great job. I was never as impressed with the others, and I wasn't as impressed with a "FWI" either.

    The home made intake also needs some sort of hold down for the PCM, but that's about $20 at most.

    Wizaired's PCM tray works just fine. The bungee holds the PCM down tight. I have the Wizaired and I have no complaints so far. It was easy to install and does what it says it does.

    Yep. You can reach in and try to move the PCM, but since it sits between the hooks for the bungie, it will not move.

    detasseling is a midwest thing. basically you pull the tops off of corn stalks.
    i'll be starting detasseling here in a few weeks again

    you've never heard of it because you aren't surrounded by corn...
    here in iowa, there's plenty of it.
    it pays descent, last year i got paid $9.25 an hour, and when you work ~150 hours in two weeks at that rate, helps alot for a hihgschooler that was when minimum wage was 5.25, and i was only 16. This year i believe im going to be making 10.25ish
