You getting a check engine light with that setup? I put almost the exact same thing in my gf's car and I can't get the CEL to clear out.

Thanks guys and LMAO yeah but what mine is is when I hit a hard enough bump the CAI moves due to it not being mounted yet and it's getting air in due to seperation of two pipes it's real small but that's what throws it so i keep disconnecting the battery for a minute and fix it then it resets it and all is well until the CAI moves again I need to mount the damn thing just haven't had time. but check the CAI tighten everthing back up and reset the computer and see what you get

I would invest in some decent aluminum 3-inch mandrel bent piping, then cut it to the length you want it and have somebody local TIG it together for you.

Also, I know the QR25 throttle body is a goofy size, but you should try to use better silicone couplers (3-ply). Spectre sucks ***! I only know because that's the first thing I tried on my gf's setup and I have to crank down on the clamps to get them to seal up.

Thanks, low91240sx, i will make sure i give you a shout if i have any ?'s or need anything. Oh and for the wheel & tire package i got them from TireRack, they have a large selection & you can see what they would look like on your car before you buy any set of wheels.

Nice pics, why didn't you get rid of the pre-cat since these engines are notorious for eating them up? Also get that CAI tied down since i read that someone didn't get it down right and ended up shredding up his filter (can't remember on what).

Hey low91240sx

. . . you can also check out a lot of other sites for rims. I buy two sets from WheelsNext.com because they mount, balance, and ship for free!

I placed my orders and received both sets within 7 days.

They also offer reasonably priced warranties for wheel replacements.

Put another O2 spacer in there and you shouldn't have anymore lights.

I put two spark plug spacers on the rear O2 sensor and it is still throwing a code. I am thinking about relocating the front O2 sensor down to the bung at the header collector because right now I have it in the #4 runner only since the stock harness reached it.
