I called your phone and paged ya....call me back after 5:30 at home. 815-463-9741. lemme know what time is good during the week so I bring a change of clothes to work. If you have tools there and alight we can do it in the garage in about an hour. Do you have the contact cleaner and the scotchbrite pads? That's really all ya need and a little piece of duct tape. I'm helping Greg do his too, so make sure you give me notice. I want a ride in the new calibration. I took the bird to storage yesterday. Snow tires burn really easily with the first calibration. My ride home followed me there and all I saw the entire way there was tiresmoke in his headlights. I'm gonna miss that car the next few months even if snow if a pain.

I tried to call ya also. I'll wanna see all this done, for educational purposes. I missed you guys at Hooters on Sunday! The wings were steaming, the Bears were winning, and the girls were ::ahem:: bouncing. Hopefully everyone can make it to D&B on the 16th.

ohh crapola that was you, didnt recognise the number, me sorry, anyway i was at work, well sorta, i went and picked up the filter from the other store and went to work. i took the maf and the tube with me, stoped at the hardware store picked up a couppla bolts and played with it at work. got the maf onto the tube and bolted up the filter, took it outside riped out the stock stuff and test fitted the setup, and what do ya know it fit! ill keep that box thing thats there ill keep that there for awhile til spring then ill mess around with it and move it, thats when ill build the airbox.

anyway, im in school tomorrow thurs and friday, i usually dont get home til either 730 or 830 depending on when class lets out. so the weekend looks like a good time, i work on sat from 11-5ish and im off on sunday all day. let me know when you feel like doing it. we can do it at my brothers house cause hes got an empty garage, and tools. email me and ill give you directions, roughly its 91th/central in oak lawn.

also, that filter what a joke, i thought that both ends were going to be blue, ha, the part that clamps onto the maf adaptor is black the other end is the only blue part. im ticked. oh well.

if we get ambisious(sp) we can do a N2O install.

Vic....

I can help you out with a nitrous install, just let me know when!

How about if we turn your car into the Midwest Project Car, and you buy all the parts for it? (Well, everything that isn't in your garage or basement waiting to get installed ;-) )

Jeff, I told you those thugs would spray paint your car if we took the Cougar for a drive. When are you gonna listen? Black ain't all that bad...just fill in all the light spots.

Keith...I'll put the rims on, Jeff wheezes the juice, Werty tunes the TV, you pull the EEC and we all have a short happy day! What time are you doing this Sunday?

Tydl...

You are about to get mail.

I'm game for this, boys. I've got a taste for hot
wings and beer for lunch though!

Let's all do this again very soon, my EEC-Tuner is
scheduled to arrive Wednesday! :D
