    Thats rad. I need to look through your guys' builds again, lots of good info in there. But just sayin, out of the box airflows don't diminish your flow. I like the more aggressive skewp they have too. Just gonna lower it a few inches.

    I'd put a pre filter on it too. As far as I'm concerned the turbo or sc is sucking in more air anyways. Haha

    By the way, my brakes are screaming for a makeover. I'd like to find time to do it myself, but I'm just so swamped with work and I have lots to do before next camping trip. Where's a good place to go for replacement parts? If I get time to do it myself. Otherwise I may have to just take it to Midas or something for lack of time. Just don't want to have to pay the labor. Blah

    Local I'm not sure. But when I did my brakes I got my rotors/pads from www.autoanything.com. Shipping was damn expensive. I'd look at rockauto as well. I bought my tie rod ends from them and only paid a few bucks in shipping and it got here in less than 5 days.

    I bought my pads from rock auto but for regular rotors they were cheaper at oreiliys because of shipping.

    Ah ok. I was thinking Oreilly's but I don't recall ever seeing brake parts in there. Must have to have them grab it from the back I take it. I don't know if I wanna pay a ton in shipping.

    Did some fishing down on the Russian River. After a few hours of nothing, the clouds rolled in and the fish started moving tons! We had our two fish already filleted and were about ready to head out when my dad finally got one. After that we landed five more :eek:

    Ended up with eight total for four people.
