Default So it begins..

Ok I am finally starting to do my upgrades..
I cheesed the Air box today and installed a K+N filter..hmmm I do notice a much nicer "Growl" and I dont think it increase the ponies at all but I do notice a faster response when I "get on it" which is always nice.
Next...Chip.
Thank you all for the info recently I have read all the replies and its a big help.

Absolutely! Glad to hear you are taking some advice and having fun with it. Take all the info in here with a grain of salt, some of us don't have all the facts right. But if you read TooCold NB's posts, you can be pretty sure he's dead on. Take his advice as de-facto proof. (Even tho sometimes he comes off as pompous.... I still got some love for the guy..)
