I'll check the sched, and get back to you. 49.95 from 120 seems a steal. I'll do my best to get there during the day.

I assume this will help emissions, right? I'm gonna have to do my emissions sometime next week, so count me in.

When was the last time you guys changed your fuel filter? I'd look into that before injector cleaning.

Unlike older cars (carburated). Most modern cars run high pressure fuel systems (30-60psi). It's unlikely that your injectors would clog or fail so soon, unless you neglected to change your filter.

Fuel filter changed two months ago. 220K on the old Si.

Aaron, I 'may' get a chance to go today. I'll check the thread around 11:45. If you can hook up around 1, PM your number. I'll call or PM you my sched.

Go to get some silver grille stuff for the meet tonight. Checking out some bulbs for clear corners (thanks 1nicesi ) Any ideas on what bulb make/colour, etc.?

Just turned down red/clear rears (used) for 230 installed. Bad move?

not a bad move at all. How much were you gonna pay to get them installed? You can do it yourself.

The price was 230 used. Install was free. Really good guy, but 250 new at Perfromance Improvements and he wanted my stocks as well. I think 230 is too high. Too bad.

motor vac

My friend had it done on his jdm b16a a coupel of months ago after he lost an injector. he felt a little difference but not all that much. MotorVac is exactly what it souds like, it's a vacuum for your engine, it takes all the gunk off the intake runners, compression chambers and exhaust ports, I am not sure if they go into exhaust runners, but I doubt it. The car felt a little more responsive later and smoother. I say it's a good deal, we all like to clean our cars, let's clean our engines, as for cleaning houses, let's leave it to the daring g/fs and wifes or mothers
