Default some new goodies - flame away

Got some stuff installed yesterday. I really dig the steering wheel. Besides the bling look it really changes the feel of the car. The gauges are almost strictly
for bling. The red color pill makes them look cool. I've realized within one day the A/F ration gauge is pretty much just a light show. Having said that I will put
an Oil Temp gauge in it's place and move it the the cruise control button spot opposite the dash dimmer. The J's intake is
unreal. Everything I would have hoped for and more. It whistles though was you give it gas but still sounds great. Butt dyno says Enjoy.


Wait, lemme get my flame suit on, aiight; enjoy.

I don't see an rice in there, just some sweet CF goodness, and a killer steering wheel that allowed you to remove 15 lbs of weight, and lower your steering ratio.

The J's intake gets major props on looks but I wonder if its any better than our beloved AEM CAI ?? After all, this intake IS sucking hot air from the engine bay ..

I'm too concerned about every little bit of hp in my car but the carbon intake is hot stuff nonetheless ..

I will be constructing a heat shield around the filter with a little trip to Home Depot.

I'd love that one!! I've never seen that before. Where joo get it? I was thinkin' just some alum. or cold rolled steel to block the filter from the engine. And no, the intake does not rub on anything, wires, tower bar, etc. The steering wheel is the Sparco Flash 5. It's on their website.
