Exclamation Heh.. My neighbors love me

I drove the FC down the street and back.. Got lots of looks People tell me that it's fairly quiet at part throttle, so it must be the decals.. Rice, eh? hehe

Anyway, it's up on the trailer, heading to Custom Alignment for a 4 wheel alignment, prepping for first run on the 26th.

FC content.. slight bucking at part throttle, probably TPS adjustment issue, but what the heck. I haven't gotten in there to doublecheck my TPS settings yet.

Second question.. The vacuum nipple on the bottom of the S5 intake manifold, directly between the two manifold oil injectors.. Any idea where that goes it? Kinda hard to make sense out of the FSM diagram on that line.

hehe, and we both have firebirds and both have FCs LOL

I'm such a dumbass.. Hauled the car up to Mountain View (about 20 miles), unload it off the trailer and park it, do the paper work, and back to work in Santa Clara (About 10 miles away).. Only to realize that I left my wallet in the passenger seat of the race car (I took it off to get in the car)

Anyway, pics and vids after I get it tuned, maybe next week. Still not running as good as I want it to.
