Toys came in the mail today
So today I got my airaid intake and SLP udps (thanks Hiboost), Royal Purple Oil, and soon I'll be ordering my SCT tunes for my XCal2. I couldnt install anything today cuz I was at work but tomorrow I'll do the oils after school. I'm waiting to install the rest because first I want to take the car in and demand they repair my broken bumper that was caused by their bent up fender. If they say it looks like I hit something, I'll ask why the dent goes outward from the car, but I don't want my aftermarker parts on it to make it look like I was racing and blah blah blah. Anyway, I'll make sure to get some pics asap for you all.

cough cough,lol, with a mix of senioritis and lack of doing anything in school until about 11...I might stay home and go late. But I'll probably just go anyway. I said screw it and already installed the intake, made a noticeable difference in sound. I'm ordering the SCT tune now from Brenspeed.

RE: Toys came in the mail today
I'll probably do the install myself. I have basically all the tools to do it. I need to rent a Puller for the balancer which I can get from Advance. I'll go to advance sometime this week and rent it, and then probably do the install Saturday since I'll need a couple hours. If there's no rain tmw, I'll do the oil change while the weather isnt too uncomfortable. I decided not to order the tune online, its just easier over the phone. So I'll be calling Brenspeed tmw after school.

RE: Toys came in the mail today
Kind of an off topic question, but here it goes...I just ordered some UDPs as well, but I won't get them in till I head back home (small town in the middle of KS)for the summer. Does anyone know if Autozone or O'reilleys has/rents pullers? I dont really want to have a shop put them in.

I know Autozone should have it, last time I went the one they had was currently out. But I just did a quick shot over the bridge next ot my house and I noticed a good difference. This is without the tune so it's not a whole lot better but its still good. From about 5-10mph in first gear I punched it and then went to second. I didnt give it enough throttle to chirp 2nd but the bit I gave it was a good feeling. lol.
