and Ed, I hope you're just bustin' my ***** 'cause I'll have you know they've been disconnected!
Speaking as someone who still has the stock sealed beam lights with all the illuminating power of a flickering candle in a windstorm... from what I hear the H4 is a better light than the H5.

I'd take a jar of lightning bugs over what came on my car.
One day I'll upgrade to H4.

Doug, I'll keep an eye out for a lens for you.

H5s are good lights, a vast improvement over sealed beams. The Bosch H4s are great lights, but I think still not DOT approved . If Doug "upgrades" he'll have to keep an eye out for his cop friend, and if he sees him he'll have to make sure the guy is always behind him - even if it takes a burnout !

It's all here!

But apparently I'm dumber than a box because so far I haven't been able to get the new airbox on. I'm working on it.

Thanks Doug. It really is way cool.

The airbox cover is on.
The cat bypass goes on tomorrow.
New 02 sensor goes on too.
I've gained about 80hp just in attitude

Thanks again, Doug. If your goal was to make another Cab go faster and its driver smile all the time, you were successful. I promise to brake hard from 130mph off the Back Straight, terriorize the Esses, rip through Madness, whip around Turn 11, squeel my tires into Thunder Valley and yell "THAT'S FOR DOUG!"

Speaking of the airbox cover....If you are not sure the clasps are holding as good as the stock ones I'd put a patch of duct tape on each one. I was never really impressed with one of the clasps on the back side.

I'd so love to see your face the first time you fire her up with the bypass. The signature sound is unmistakably Porsche.
