I can now swear in two different languages fluently, and I used them all today!

I finally got my Diamond Eye downpipe and my S&B Intake in today. But that FN dipstick tube beat the hell outta me. Now the bracket is all buggered and I guess I need to order a Mike L. driverside one.

I also did about 100 more situps than Usher does in a day as Simon had to bail on me and go to work and it's a bugger laying in the dirt doing this by yourself. But in the end, it seems worth it.
EGT's are down about 100-150deg, and the IAT is down about 15deg.

Thanks to McRat Racing for the downpipe and to Diesel Addiction for the Intake.

Off to the track tomorrow with any luck.....

Mine was a PITA!!!!! I bent it all up when i put it on and it didnt work. ATS put one on for me last weeknd but it was touching the DP and the firewall which caused a LOUD vibraton so they took it back off. Gotta put the MikeL driverside one on that MikeM left for me.......oh yea! MikeM, i still owe you for that!:rofl:

mine only goes into the tranny drain plug half way and has a kink at every bend:D thanks to the A5k downpipe... I am also in the market for the MikeL ambi-tranny dipstick.

Ive got the GT42 downpipe and I dont have any bolts holding it down. My dipstick is just in the tranny and wedged between my heater core lines:confused:

Dale you work on big equipment for a living you shouldnt be complaining about a small 3/4 ton pickup:rofl:

Correction Travis, I USED to work on big equipment. Now I sit a desk and yell from my second floor office to the boys on the shop floor to get to work!!!:D

I also found the rubber seal in the tranny that is supposed to go around the dipstick tube was missing so now I get to pull it out again and fix it.
