IA 5HO

Had to take my car in to the dealer the other day.  Randomly had my battery crap out on me. Worked fine one day, tried starting it the next morning, took three tries and barely got it going at that.  Thought I had ran it down from the night before or something. Then nearly got stranded at work since too and it took another three tries there.  It was after 5:30 by the time I got into the QuickLane at the dealership and they said all they could do is test the battery.  They had to throw the charger on it to get it started and out of the bay.  Luckily if failed their test and was replaced under warranty that night.  :thumb:

I'm also in the process of plastidiping all my chrome just like jkeblaitis.  Just have the front grill surround, fender emblems, and rear emblems done at the moment.  Ran out of time to do it all in one shot.  Might have to redo some of it though as I think I went a little thin on the coats.

On the short end of the battery life, IA.  Hopefully the new one (which one was installed?) will last you a bit longer.  And please post pics when done with the PD :D

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Finally joined the BOV VTA club today. After seeing how easy it was don't know why I didn't do it sooner.

Curious though, does anyone undo theirs when going in for service?

If it has anything to do with the engine as to why you take it in for service then yes you should put it back.

Cleaned it!

Oh, wait no I didn't! I don't have time. > :(

Might as well start watering the floor mats to see if I can get any of the tracked-in lawn clippings to grow.

Picked up a meth kit from Torrie as well as an XCAL 4 to upgrade my XCAL 3.
Are you going to run 100% meth?

Well look where I stopped today. I finally broke down and bought a tune. Also got the 160 degree thermostat. Items already purchased and ready to install are Airaid intake, 3bar sensor and new Motorcraft 0.030 gapped plugs. Hopefully will have everything installed in about two weeks. Can't wait, unfortunately super busy at work right now. A special thanks to Anthony at LMS for great customer service and answering all my questions.
