Just placed an order with ZZP for a PCM & Hi Velocity TB, and with PFYC for a K&N intake and a front license plate cover. Wasn't going to order the cover right now, but since it needs to be painted and my car is going to be painted soon, I figured I probably ought to order it. lol And since the intake was cheaper at PFYC, I bought it there.

I'd been trying to decide whether or not to order it all now, but since I went and saw Death Race tonight, I've kind of got "speed" running through my veins. lol

Hopefully, it will all be here by next Wednesday, which is my day off, so I can just install it all at once, and get my car painted within a week after that, so it'll be ready for TMS. thumbsup

Anything you guys think I should know ahead of time to make the installation easier?

unplug the battery before working on the PCM.

make sure you have a gasket for the throttle body...

I think thats it, installation of all of these are very straightforward

Duh for the battery. lol

The gasket comes with the TB from ZZP, doesn't it? Or am I going to have to place a separate order now, and wait for that to come in too?

Intake got here today, I didn't realize it would have so many parts to it. eek lol

It's mostly assembled, just a couple things I didn't bolt together because I think it'd be easier to do once it's going in the car.

The license plate cover should be here tomorrow, and the TB & PCM should be here Thursday. Unfortunately, I open Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday...dunno when I'm gonna be able to install the stuff. It's going to SUCK knowing it's sitting in my room, calling my name. I may wind up just installing it after it gets dark, just because I'm to impatient to wait until I get a day off.
