Question Look what I found in my engine bay....

I was looking around the engine bay and tried to feel around for the wires that lead into the impact strip and felt something loose..so i pulled it out...a 12inx1in peice of wood! tucked down in under washer bottle!!! WTF ....only thing i can think of was before i picked up the car the mechanics were using it for whatever and forgot about it

Feeling around the washer bottle - finally going to start modding that puppy. With all the posts you make about which is the best pulley/chip/intake I thought that thing would have twin turbo's by now.

Yup, I have them. But are you sure you want to put that? Have you figured out a way to deal with the side marker bulbs? I had installed the Euro strips for a couple of weeks last year and the bulb blown and got "melted".
