I cant find a 360 
We are halo addicts here ...Mayo is a 28 I think.
Jag - I dont think that will be a huge problem...my biggest concern is not getting my greasy fingers in the 02 sensors. The instructions say on every page 02 SENSORS ARE VERY SENSITIVE DO NOT TOUCH, GET LINT, DIRT, OR ANY OTHER PARTICLE NEAR THEM.
Its like handling a bomb or something..
Mayo- I think i am going to be there around 0900. Not sure what you are doing Sat. I am getting a good nights sleep friday and then out early...its going to be cold so after I install them I am sure the cabin will warm up!
PS The Big Dig GREAT INVESTMENT!!! With that money you could have built a rail in the clouds and put an Xbox in every railcar...

Its one way to make taxpayers feel a sort of personal satisfaction ....
They should say:
"Your commute is only 8 minutes thank to the Democratic leaders of your great state!"
and on the back side "SUCKER!"

Dude, it sounds awesome! I've got a set of LGs that should be here any day now. I'm debating whether to just put them in myself or take them to a shop. I kept telling myself I wasn't going to work on this car after all the time my last car robbed from me, but it seems so easy 
Did you have to drill through the tunnel plate for the O2 extension wires for the Dynatechs?

The next may be seredipity ...where are your LT's mayo?
What the hell are you doing today I am going to go out driving before traffic gets sick..
I didnt drill through the tunnel plate. I can see why some people would. I just used the little connectors that came with the header kit to secure them real good to the tunnel plate.

I probably will end up just doing my headers then. Hopefully they'll arrive this week. I ordered from LG directly.
