Haha...you guys are talking about guns now? I've got a .40cal Springfield Armory XDm if anybody wants to go shooting? It's all I have for now. I wouldn't mind collecting a couple other rifles and pistols before some jerkoff taxes the crap out of them.

I've got my double barrell 16gauge not to far from where I sleep. Firearms are a good time.

Guys, I got my Harmann Corp. Recessed Plug in the mail today. I was supposed to get 4 samples but only ended up with 1 . Oh well.....on to the pics. Let me know what you guys think? It honest to god took no more than 5min. to pull the wiper off the car. It would have been faster but I had to make sure I wasn't going to screw anything up.

Jim, looks clean without the rear wiper, but I think the plug would look better if it sat flush with the windshield and not recessed like that. I'm with Petey on the however, I like the rear water scraper-offer.

I think you're right about it being recessed. It makes it too noticeable. I might check their site out and see if they have something that sits flush.

I don't think it looks bad. As long as it doesn't leak. Were you planning on taking the motor out too or just the wiper?

Also, did you decide on a intake mani yet? You plan on doing a retune after you get these parts?

It holds in there pretty good but it definately needs some type of silicone sealant. As for the intake mani....well I almost pulled the trigger this morning on the MAP Intake but it's hard to spend the the $700.00 I'm sure doing this mani plus the 65mm TB that's already in there will net me more gains than a tubular exhaust mani...................I NEED SOME MORE CASH!!!

By the way, yes I do plan on getting retuned but probably not until I get all 3 parts. I have the TB is once the Intake Mani and Tubular Mani are one I'll definately get a retune. If I'm going to try and make it to this shootout then I'm just going to have to wait on the other 2 parts. I figure I can get away without tuning on the 65mm TB alone. What do you think Petey? I'll be keeping an eye on my AFR's. They're a little rich anyway.

I want a gun, but my wife doesn't

In other news, I found out we're having a girl! Just 20 more weeks to go.
