Ok, so many of you know that I went to UTI in SoCal. I graduated at the end of October, then I moved to Nashville. The builders promised to have my mom's new house ready to close on oct 31st of last year. Well, we finally moved in this weekend (yeah, the house was delayed over 3 months. In that time I was living with my mom and grandma (that was not fun in the least). But the house has finally been finished, and it's incredible. But anyway, having the house done means that I could finally buy my new tools. So after spending $1300 on new tools (in addition to the $1500 I already had) I am now ready to start the more indepth mods on my car. I am finally going to be able to put on the springs, swaybar, UD pulley, and phenolic spacer I have sitting here. I'm excited...

CD Phenolic Spacers

Cool air makes the most power. CD's phenolic spacer isolates your intake manifold from the cylinder head. This reduces the rate of heat transfer from hot engine to the upper intake, for cooler air and more horsepower.
Common heat reduction temps average 15-25 Deg cooler. Aprox HP Gain 5HP

Apparently, the message you post cannot just be a quote...so I have to add something here. Perhaps I've already come past the required number of characters.

Congrats on the house. Tools and a garage are the next best thing to a kickass house.

Yep, it's stewie. It's from the episode "Road to Rhode Island". It's when they are burying biscuit (brian's mom).



Wow, I watch that show too much...
