Got it. I like the idea of having it same color as my car with gold flakes. Thatd be sweet
I wonder if you can spray plastic down with an adhesion promotion. Oh yeah you can the real enemy is heat and oil residue. Ask aomeone who deal's in car paint that is more knowable

yep sure is. youre still running with a cat? if so youll want to re-enable COT and use whatever setting you currently have as the enrichment, same for the cat lightoff tables. which could throw your fueling off. however your also 4700 ft close to sea level so it should all be close.Quote:

I was planning to get rid of the cat anyways so yea. I won't have a wideband installed until headers come. That shouldn't be a problem should it
No that was with stock manifolds and you should be alright with the catQuote:
