Howdy all,
Just got my GOODIE BOX from LMS! Oh Yeah! Putting a Stage 1 with CAI, 3bar MAP, 160 TS, gapped plugs, and v8 93 octane tune. 😜
Got the t-stat and CAI installed today, just waiting for Anthony over at LMS to get the tune done. I'll be installing the plugs tomorrow. I was pleasantly surprised at how easy changing the t-stat was, although I should've let the car cool longer before doing it. Lost a bit of coolant, but it was easily replaced. Contrary to some posts I've seen regarding difficulty purging air from the system, I took Jaimie's (at LMS) advice and just ran the car and added coolant to the recovery tank. Drove it 30 miles while watching temps like a hawk, did not notice any tendency towards running hotter than usual.
I was surprised at the new pep it has just with the CAI! Man, I can't wait to see the difference the tune will make, and I'm REALLY looking forward to that $h:+ eatin' "LMS grin"!
The downside? Welllllllllll.......down the rabbit hole go I LOL! Next up is Powerstop drilled/slotted disks and ceramic-carbon pads, epoxy caliper paint, and MAYYYYYYBE cat backs or resonators. I'd like to get it a little more throaty sounding. I'll post pics of my baby tomorrow.
Thanx all for being such a helpful, friendly bunch. Looking forward to sharing adventures! Cheers!
