Thats funny, I had a hell of a time trying to get my post maf tubes on as well, but it only took me about 45 minuters. Nearly broke my finger trying to pry it on.

It sounds like you all had a great experience, I assume they didnt try to sell you anything? Its nice seeing friendly dealerships.

That's how things usually turn out but he had a lot of factors impeeding our progress so it's not a 'typical' MAF Tube install.

I actually didn't have anything to eat since I wasn't going to till the install was done, and as soon as it was done the bottom fell out so it was time to roll out.

Did you remember to do the negative terminal ECU Reset when you got home?

Brian were those Dynos before/after a tune, or before/after a certain mod? OR a Baseline/Current? There's a lot of space between the lines.

Yes sir, I actually just got done doing the ECU reset, then I took her to the gas station, topped her off, and did what you said, and drove her pretty good. I like it, lots and lots fun.

Thank you soo much Chris and Bobo, Im sending yall some Rep.

Ok after seeing everyone without their front plates I had to take mine off. I love the look without the plate. Well then I had the two stupid holes in the front plastic.

So I went out to autozone to see if I could find something to plug it with. I found some plastic panel retainers (Dorman 963-045 for Chrysler, Ford, GM Panel Retainers) at autozone for $2.50. Two of them were perfect fits, and the color matches almost exactly the magnetic black of my Z. It looks really like they are meant to be there.

I would get pics, but it's getting dark outside.

If anyone else is looking for something to cover those holes, you should try these out.

Awesome I needed those for the holes in my front bumper too.

I refused to drill my bumper in the 1st place. I have had 3 warnings about the plate in my window. I was told to "mount" it to the car....I installed a Show N Go this weekend. It takes about 5 seconds for my plate to flip out. By the time the fuzz gets to my window I'm ready.

"What do you mean no front plate?!?!? Did some one steal it? Can I see? .....What are you talking about officer? Its right there!"
