Damari, where did you get that pimp oil cap ?

Andy, don't be silly. Both Knighsports and Auto-exe are $$$$$. That's correct, five dolla signs each. kind of like a 5 star hotel

Nope Andy, stick with the AutoExe one. I looked at both and wish I would have gone with the AutoExe. I love 5-stars too and like Rich said, they are both $$$$$. Looks good but someone should copy it and sell it for 1/2. It limits the choices in IC too so that is another thing to keep in mind. I still have some work to do on it but it is getting there.

A late night inspiration...that little kitty devil is now invading my car. Now all I need is a miniature pair of red piloti's to hang from my rear view, in homage to the man; the legend!

The thing that I noticed on your intake is that there looks to be more room for the IC than with the autoexe. What kind of IC is that?

Microtech and Haltech are probably the two most used ECUs.

^ Beautiful engine bay (and rest of car) Andy. One of the nicest I have seen which is why I voted for you as "Peoples Choice" at the Chris Carlisi meet.
