If not I'll make you a disk when I get back from my mini vacation.
Thanks Phil! I tried searching, but all I found is people asking if they can use them for aftermarket wheels and such.. Nothing about how to remove the damn thing! I went to a tire shop to remove my tire from my messed up wheel and I forgot to ask them how to remove the TMPS. But, atleast they told me the tire is still good!

No plans tomorrow, the only thing I had planned maybe is to remove my CF hood, and put the stock one back on for now. I need to ask the body shop guy that you and Jason use, I wanna see how much it will be for me to re-clear coat my CF hood. I'm still debating if I should keep the CF look or paint it to match the car color. Besides that, I ordered the Knight Sports catalogue, which should be here in a few days. I'll let you have it as soon as it arrives.. Any case, call me tomorrow or I'll call you and we'll see what's up? You got anything planned?!

You can always come over here and I'll help you install it, since you offered to help me before.. Let me know!

Hi guys,
I've had some people tell me to post here, so here I am. I have a 2006 Velocity red with MS front bumper. I lived in Vegas last year and will be moving there again in a few months. I'll be looking for house in June. I'll be going to school at Touro University on American Pacific Hwy near I-215. (by Fiesta Casino). I look forward to going to the Vegas meets.

The offer is still there, if you will wait until Sunday the 6th we can do it at my house and I'll have some extra help there. Just let me know so Nancy does not plan something. I'll have the Cobb AP in and I'll show you what a s/c 4 port at 8 will do.

I see Armin offered to help also. Take advantage of one of the offers - save your money for the next food meet.

Hay Mike, do you still want to use (or buy) the interceptor X? It will be available in a week. I told you that you had first call on it so let me know. If you go to the expense of converting it (about $200.00) I guess I'll sell it to you. Now you will have to contact Scott at Mazport as to what will be needed to make this a manual version and you will need to get him to load a few maps on the dongle.

If Mike does not want it, I will loan it to anyone with an auto trans. You will have to pay for the maps from Scott but that's not much.

It just dawned on me that my mid pipe will be in shortly and I can get it installed on Sunday also so we could make it a day.

We don't have a tweety bird in the club that I know of. I hope it's not the guy that lives up by me - he is an *** hole (and does not know how to drive).

I just called Mario and left him a voicemail, so I'm waiting for him to call me back and let me know what's going on.. Either way, you can always come over tomorrow and clay bar. I've never clayed my car, since I've had it for the last 4 years. Any case, did you want the link for the signal bulbs? You can use them for the front and rear tail lights.
