    Check engine light came on, so i cleaned my mass airflow sensor. Solved the problem! Last time i took it to the dealer and had them do it. Handy piece of knowledge i have now...Damn dirt roads.

    Last week I ordered some Denso spark plugs for my 60k maintenance coming up and picked up some Amsoil severe gear. Today, in the mail, I randomly got an NGK spark plug t-shirt and a letter that thanked me for purchasing NGK spark plugs. Odd but I'm not complaining. Free shirt! :woot:

    Just got mine done last week as well as the throttle body...CEL is still on! The MAF was really dirty so I figured it would have solved the problem. That's what is throwing the code.

    Make sure you unhook your battery for a few minutes after doing it. If you don't the light can stay on. That'll reset the computer and turn the light off. I had to do that with mine. I still need to do my TB and Intake tube. those are probably pretty dirty too. The deckplate mod lets alot of dirt in on dusty roads.

    I had to get my rotors machined because they were warped so I had the shop do it while it was in there...They seemed to know what they were doing. Who knows..I'll have to go back in.

    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.
    Finally mounted my Ultra Gauge. I think it's a pretty good spot.

    Oh and I pulled off my URD 2.2 pully I'm not liking how the truck was running with it. I'll put it back on when I have time to tune the SC.

    Yes sir. I'm actually banking on never putting enough miles on my truck to do a timing belt. It will eventually become just a winter/trail warrior.

    I replaced the 5 resistors with 2 100ohm 1watt resistors and now it works fine. The 5% tolerance on each of the 5 resistors was killing performance.

    Fuck you LSPV!!!!!
    Ditched it and got a Wilwood manual brake proportioning valve. Allows me to adjust from 0 to 57% pressure reduction. Fabbed up a little bracket too that uses the factory mounting holes
