As far as I/C plumbling, I NEVER found that my headlights were in the way, and I NEVER had any reason to tamper with them.

You should just go to the dyno day anyway to meet some of us and get some good ideas about the direction you want to take with your car.

Be there or I ban you, how is that for motivation. You will also get free pizza for lunch.

I won't actually ban you if you don't come.

It is free for him, as in he does not have to pay for it. It is not free for Rick. We will make sure we send him more pictures of the yummy pizza.

What is a 4Matic? If it is 2wd you can put it on the dyno for $50.

Hey Mark this is Min. Your baby took to the dyno noise very well

Let me know when you want me to come by to check out the fueling for your xede. It should be pretty straightforward.

Yeah need to start her off early... I just ordered some new injector o-rings and a new plenum gasket so I can get the 550's installed. I'm sure they will be here before the weekend so if your not doing anything next weekend I should be ready.
