Default Intake Spacer install update.

OK, I got the egr block off kit in the mail and I used a tap to fix one of the bolt holes. I bolted everything up and started the car and it ran worse!!! Now I was starting to get worried so I took everything off again and removed the upper intake. Thats when I noticed a tube laying under where my TB was. Im thinking, I dont remember hooking that tube back up. It was the hose that goes onto the TB, under the sensor connection. I boted everything back up and hooked up that hose and the car ran like new!!

So for the results: The car seems to idle a little deeper and about 100rpm lower then before. I can feel the car pull a little harder at the lower rpms, so I am sure the tq has increased. I recommend this mod to anyone, just dont make the mistakes I did. This should have taken 30 minutes instead of 3 days.

Hey man, mission accomplished is all that matters. Atleast you're giving feedback and letting bros know what to avoid and such. Hope I won't have the problem hooking the EGR up with the 3/8".
