Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

What did you do to your Car today?

Tell me about it. I get tired of having to make such a effort getting the car jacked up by jacking it up from the side enough then getting a jack underneath the subframe. So much work for a simple task.
 


Made a ghetto press today under 20bucks

Works great

Red is original opening, green is new opening. Still will get cold air, as I did not mess with the part on the right, so it's still up against the frame. I later drilled some holes in the bottom part, like the one you can see near the right side. That one was there from the factory, I added more to make sure no water could stay in there.

Right away when I started it up, I could hear the IAC valve noise quite a bit more(vacuum noise). I'll have to give it some gas on the road and see how much of a difference I notice.
 


Got a question, I'm on the highway cruising at 80 or so and just randomly the rpm's will jerk real quick and quite hard but not too hard. And it will jerk about 5 times or more unless I let off pedal and slow down then I'll speed back up and it will be fine for a while then it will just randomly do it again, no service lights, just weird actions.

Your headlight isn't installed correctly, you probably have some bounce. The plastic clip on the left side (still in the green section) need to be over that metal tab, not in front of it.

Yeah i put a price I thought was too high and hoped for a trade. Now one stands but I doubt that I'll do it. Wife doesn't sound too happy on the idea.

The 04's are nice but nearly nice as the 05-06 the only thing great about the 04 is the fact that the pcm offers lean cruise which helps a ton with that pig of a car. I had a 04 gto for all of 2 weeks until the dealership scammed me
