MOMO SHADOW

HAD TO REMOVE ALTERNATOR, AIR BOX AND THROTTLE BODY to have enough room to get to the part. I realized the need for a friend with skinny arms

use a little air saw, let’s you go on your own pace and make the turns effortlessly.

After installing the new intake, disconnect the battery for 10 minutes (DON'T LATCH THE FRUNK). This will cause the DME to reset the fuel trims and then redo them with the increased airflow from the intake. It will eventually do this without the battery disconnect, but it will take a lot longer.

Got some new MP4S tires mounted yesterday on the 997.1 Turbo wheels I got in the classifieds here over the winter, installed Rennline stud conversion and mounted new set and put away winter set.

When upgrading my steering wheel,I did lock the Frunk from musle memory after a few minutes of panic I grabbed the key and a solid pice of #12 wire and fished the cable back to the battery post while hitting the Frunk release.

Took a drive down PCH near Malibu this weekend.
Hopefully doesn't turn into a fire ball this year.

Default Great job choosing your spacers

There stance looks great! Your spacers fill out the wheel wells just right. Nice looking all around!
